[PATCH 0/2] kvm/selftests: Two rseq_test fixes

From: Gavin Shan
Date: Tue Aug 09 2022 - 00:06:22 EST


There are two issues in current rseq_test implementation and the
series intends to fix them:

- From glibc-2.35, rseq information is registered by TLS. It means
rseq_test is unable to register its own rseq information. PATCH[01]
fixes the issue by reuse TLS's rseq information if needed.

- sched_getcpu() relies on glibc's implementation and it can simply
returns the CPU ID cached in the rseq information. In this case,
it's pointless to compare the return value from sched_getcpu()
and that fetched from rseq information. PATCH[02] fixes the issue
by replacing sched_getcpu() with getcpu().

Gavin Shan (2):
KVM: selftests: Make rseq compatible with glibc-2.35
KVM: selftests: Use getcpu() instead of sched_getcpu() in rseq_test
