Subject: [PATCH] selftests/ftrace: Avoid unlink error on first run
Date: Wed, 14 Oct 2026 20:48:25 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261014114839.6258-1-jaewon8868@gmail.com> (raw)

On the first run, ftracetest tries to unlink a symlink that does not
exist.
Use rm -f to avoid the "No such file or directory" error.

Fixes: 7dc1e125f07a ("ftrace/selftests: Add softlink to latest log directory")
