Message-ID: <20230804200419.42EDAC433C8@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)


The quilt patch titled
     Subject: selftests: mm: ksm: fix incorrect evaluation of parameter
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     selftests-mm-ksm-fix-incorrect-evaluation-of-parameter.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: selftests: mm: ksm: fix incorrect evaluation of parameter
Date: Fri, 28 Jul 2023 22:09:51 +0530

A missing break in kms_tests leads to kselftest hang when the parameter -s
is used.

In current code flow because of missing break in -s, -t parses args
spilled from -s and as -t accepts only valid values as 0,1 so any arg in
-s >1 or <0, gets in ksm_test failure

This went undetected since, before the addition of option -t, the next
case -M would immediately break out of the switch statement but that is no
longer the case

Add the missing break statement.
