You were supposed to add your RBT:

You did not add test into runtest/thermal. OTOH test will apply also after we
finally merge thermal_interrupt_events.c.

I tried to run the test, but it fails due missing sysfs file:
$ grep CONFIG_X86_MSR /boot/config-6.19.0-rc1-1.g274aff5-default
CONFIG_X86_MSR=m
$ lsmod |grep msr

=> obviously checking for CONFIG_X86_MSR is not enough.
OT: it'd be nice to extend 'save_restore' library functionality to
1) support glob (/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/acpi_cppc/highest_perf)
2) read value into the variable (in case of glob into array).

"Test pass" has zero information value.
Maybe something like:
"sysfs and MSR values are equal"

For thermal_interrupt_events.c we also have use .supported_archs (for the docs
purposes), why not to add it to this test as well?
+ .supported_archs = (const char *const []) {
+ "x86",
+ "x86_64",
+ NULL
+ },
Kind regards,
Petr
