From d22c3e0088e85be8131f7a9283f759cdbb20726d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sven Schnelle Date: Wed, 9 Sep 2026 11:29:53 +0200 Subject: selftests/ftrace: Fix unique symbol check in kprobe_non_uniq_symbol.tc The current regex also matches symbols in modules, which makes the test fail on s390 where name_show is present only once in the kernel, but also multiple times in modules: 000001b1401cdc20 t name_show 000001b0c05e6c40 t name_show [mdev] 000001b0c0495f30 t name_show [i2c_core] Fix this by changing the regular expression to only match the function name.

If anybody really needs it, it's all in +the source...' + +Well, this documentation is written because some people either +don't know they need to tweak something, or because they don't +have the time or knowledge to read the source code. + +Furthermore, the programmers who built sysctl have built it to +be actually used, not just for the fun of programming it :-) + +------------------------------------------------------------------------------ + +Legal blurb: + +As usual, there are two main things to consider: + +1. you get what you pay for +2. it's free + +The consequences are that I won't guarantee the correctness of +this document, and if you come to me complaining about how you +screwed up your system because of wrong documentation, I won't +feel sorry for you.
