selftests: mptcp: drop nanoseconds width specifier

2026-06-19T11:21:45+00:00

[ Upstream commit 01ff78e4b3d98689184c52d97f9575dfbdc3b10f ] Using the format specifier +%s%3N with GNU date is honoured, and only prints 3 digits of the nanoseconds portion of the seconds since epoch, which corresponds to the milliseconds. The uutils implementation of date currently does not honour this, and always prints all 9 digits. This is a known issue [1], but can be worked around by adapting this test to use nanoseconds instead of microseconds, and then divide it by 1e6. This fix is similar to what has been done on systemd side [2], and it is needed to run the selftests on Ubuntu 26.04, containing uutils 0.8.0. Note that the Fixes tag is there even if this patch doesn't fix an issue in the kernel selftests, but it is useful for those using uutils 0.8.0.

ktest: Fix the month in the name of the failure directory

2026-06-19T11:21:42+00:00

[ Upstream commit 768059ede35f197575a38b10797b52402d9d4d2f ] The Perl localtime() function returns the month starting at 0 not 1. This caused the date produced to create the directory for saving files of a failed run to have the month off by one. machine-test-useconfig-fail-20260314073628 The above happened in April, not March. The correct name should have been: machine-test-useconfig-fail-20260414073628 This was somewhat confusing.

ktest: Fixing indentation to match expected pattern

2026-06-19T11:21:42+00:00

[ Upstream commit 12d4cddda2043466a5af8fc0c49e49f24f1d4c59 ] This is a followup to "ktest: Adding editor hints to improve consistency" to actually adjust the existing indentation to match the, now, expected pattern (first column 4 spaces, 2nd tab, 3rd tab + 4 spaces, etc). This should, at least help, keep things consistent going forward now.

selftests: forwarding: lib: Add helpers for checksum handling

2026-06-19T11:21:27+00:00

commit 952e0ee38c7215c45192d8c899acd1830873f28b upstream. In order to generate IGMPv3 and MLDv2 packets on the fly, we will need helpers to calculate the packet checksum. The approach presented in this patch revolves around payload templates for mausezahn. These are mausezahn-like payload strings (01:23:45:...) with possibly one 2-byte sequence replaced with the word PAYLOAD. The main function is payload_template_calc_checksum(), which calculates RFC 1071 checksum of the message. There are further helpers to then convert the checksum to the payload format, and to expand it. For IPv6, MLDv2 message checksum is computed using a pseudoheader that differs from the header used in the payload itself. The fact that the two messages are different means that the checksum needs to be returned as a separate quantity, instead of being expanded in-place in the payload itself. Furthermore, the pseudoheader includes a length of the message. Much like the checksum, this needs to be expanded in mausezahn format. And likewise for number of addresses for (S,G) entries. Thus we have several places where a computed quantity needs to be presented in the payload format. Add a helper u16_to_bytes(), which will be used in all these cases.

perf util: Kill die() prototype, dead for a long time

perf expr: Return -EINVAL for syntax error in expr__find_ids()

2026-06-01T15:29:36+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3a61fd866ef9aaa1d3158b460f852b74a2df07f4 ] expr__find_ids() propagates the parser return value directly. For syntax errors, the parser can return a positive value, but callers treat it as success, e.g., for below case on Arm64 platform: metric expr 100 * (STALL_SLOT_BACKEND / (CPU_CYCLES * #slots) - BR_MIS_PRED * 3 / CPU_CYCLES) for backend_bound parsing metric: 100 * (STALL_SLOT_BACKEND / (CPU_CYCLES * #slots) - BR_MIS_PRED * 3 / CPU_CYCLES) Failure to read '#slots' literal: #slots = nan syntax error Convert positive parser returns in expr__find_ids() to -EINVAL, as a result, the error value will be respected by callers.

This was happening in calls from has_stitched_lbr when running the "perf record LBR tests". The return value isn't used in that case, so returning NULL as no effect.

ktest: Run POST_KTEST hooks on failure and cancellation

2026-06-01T15:29:34+00:00

[ Upstream commit bc6e165a452da909cef0efbc286e6695624db372 ] PRE_KTEST can be useful for setting up the environment and POST_KTEST to tear it down, however POST_KTEST only runs on the normal end-of-run path. It is skipped when ktest exits through dodie() or cancel_test(). Final cleanup hooks are skipped. Factor the final hook execution into run_post_ktest(), call it from the normal exit path and from the early exit paths, and guard it so the hook runs at most once.

ktest: Honor empty per-test option overrides

2026-06-01T15:29:34+00:00

[ Upstream commit a2de57a3c8192dcd67cccaff6c341b93748d799b ] A per-test override can clear an inherited default option by assigning an empty value, but __set_test_option() still used option_defined() to decide whether a per-test key existed. That turned an empty per-test assignment back into "fall back to the default", so tests still could not clear inherited settings. For example: DEFAULTS (...) LOG_FILE = /tmp/ktest-empty-override.log CLEAR_LOG = 1 ADD_CONFIG = /tmp/.config TEST_START TEST_TYPE = build BUILD_TYPE = nobuild ADD_CONFIG = This would run the test with ADD_CONFIG[1] = /tmp/.config Fix by checking whether the per-test key exists before falling back. If it does exist but is empty, treat it as unset for that test and stop the fallback chain there.
