[PATCH 5.7 166/393] selftests/lkdtm: Reset WARN_ONCE to avoid false negatives

flat view

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2020-08-17 18:59:44
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: kernel selftest framework, linux kernel dump test module (lkdtm), the rest · Maintainers: Shuah Khan, Shuah Khan, Kees Cook, Linus Torvalds

From: Kees Cook <redacted>

[ Upstream commit 4fccc8c0ff740e62343b6de38426a48b345b95f4 ]

Since we expect to see warnings every time for many tests, just reset
the WARN_ONCE flags each time the script runs.
