Subject: [patch V4 12/12] selftests/rseq: Implement time slice extension test
Date: Sun, 16 Nov 2025 21:51:29 +0100 (CET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251116174751.369503102@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20251116173423.031443519@linutronix.de
Provide an initial test case to evaluate the functionality. This needs to be
extended to cover the ABI violations and expose the race condition between
observing granted and arriving in rseq_slice_yield().
