[for-next][PATCH 5/5] ktest.pl: Always display BUILD_DIR and OUTPUT_DIR at the start of tests
From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Mon Jul 21 2025 - 16:40:18 EST
From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>
As ktest.pl can run in various different directories, to make sure the
test is running in the proper directory with the proper source and proper
destination directory, display the content of BUILD_DIR and OUTPUT_DIR at
the start of every test.
This can be helpful for the test runner to stop the test if a test is
running in the wrong location instead of finding out after the test has
completed.
