Subject: [PATCH v1 4/8] selftests: arm64: Document what the SVE ptrace test is doing
Date: Mon, 13 Sep 2021 13:55:01 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210913125505.52619-5-broonie@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210913125505.52619-1-broonie@kernel.org>

Before we go modifying it further let's add some comments and output
clarifications explaining what this test is actually doing.
