Hi Linus,

Please pull the following kselftest fixes update for Linux 6.13-rc1.

kselftest update for Linux 6.13-rc1

-- timers test - removes duplicates defines
-- timers test - fixes to improve error reporting
-- rtc test - adds check rtc alarm status to alarm test
-- resctrl test - adds array overrun checks during iMC config parsing code
-- resctrl test - adds array overflow checks when reading strings
-- resctrl test - fixes and reorganizing code

Looks like I forgot to mention signal test changes in my tag
message. :(

diff is attached.

Tests passed on my kselftest next branch:

- Individual test runs of signal, timers, rtc, and resctrl

thanks,
-- Shuah

+=============================
+Device testing with kselftest
+=============================
+
+
+There are a few different kselftests available for testing devices generically,
+with some overlap in coverage and different requirements. This document aims to
+give an overview of each one.
+
+Note: Paths in this document are relative to the kselftest folder
+(``tools/testing/selftests``).
+
+Device oriented kselftests:
+
+* Devicetree (``dt``)
+
+  * **Coverage**: Probe status for devices described in Devicetree
+  * **Requirements**: None
+
+* Error logs (``devices/error_logs``)
+
+  * **Coverage**: Error (or more critical) log messages presence coming from any
+    device
+  * **Requirements**: None
+
+* Discoverable bus (``devices/probe``)
+
+  * **Coverage**: Presence and probe status of USB or PCI devices that have been
+    described in the reference file
+  * **Requirements**: Manually describe the devices that should be tested in a
+    YAML reference file (see ``devices/probe/boards/google,spherion.yaml`` for
+    an example)
+
+* Exist (``devices/exist``)
+
+  * **Coverage**: Presence of all devices
+  * **Requirements**: Generate the reference (see ``devices/exist/README.rst``
+    for details) on a known-good kernel
+
+Therefore, the suggestion is to enable the error log and devicetree tests on all
+(DT-based) platforms, since they don't have any requirements. Then to greatly
+improve coverage, generate the reference for each platform and enable the exist
+test. The discoverable bus test can be used to verify the probe status of
+specific USB or PCI devices, but is probably not worth it for most cases.

+ *
+ * Test describing a clear distinction between signal states - delivered and
+ * blocked, and their relation with ucontext.
+ *
+ * A process can request blocking of a signal by masking it into its set of
+ * blocked signals; such a signal, when sent to the process by the kernel,
+ * will get blocked by the process and it may later unblock it and take an
+ * action. At that point, the signal will be delivered.
+ *
+ * We test the following functionalities of the kernel:
+ *
+ * ucontext_t describes the interrupted context of the thread; this implies
+ * that, in case of registering a handler and catching the corresponding
+ * signal, that state is before what was jumping into the handler.
+ *
+ * The thread's mask of blocked signals can be permanently changed, i.e, not
+ * just during the execution of the handler, by mangling with uc_sigmask
+ * from inside the handler.
+ *
+ * Assume that we block the set of signals, S1, by sigaction(), and say, the
+ * signal for which the handler was installed, is S2. When S2 is sent to the
+ * program, it will be considered "delivered", since we will act on the
+ * signal and jump to the handler. Any instances of S1 or S2 raised, while the
+ * program is executing inside the handler, will be blocked; they will be
+ * delivered immediately upon termination of the handler.
+ *
+ * For standard signals (also see real-time signals in the man page), multiple
+ * blocked instances of the same signal are not queued; such a signal will
+ * be delivered just once.
