[PATCH 3/7] Subject: [PATCH] selftests/powerpc: Add RTAS /proc interface test

COLD16d

From: Shirisha G <hidden>
Date: 2026-09-18 05:23:51
Also in: linux-kselftest
Subsystem: kernel selftest framework, the rest · Maintainers: Shuah Khan, Shuah Khan, Linus Torvalds

Add kselftest for the RTAS /proc interface on pseries/PowerVM systems.
This test validates event logging and status reporting via
`/proc/ppc64/rtas/`.

The test verifies:
- Enumeration of `/proc/ppc64/rtas/` entries
- Reading and basic validation of `rtas_log`
- Parsing RTAS event log headers (version, severity, length)
- Structure of log entries (header, timestamp, severity)
- Handling of invalid RTAS tokens
- Error log rotation behavior
