Not sure if we ever talked about this earlier, but here is the situation which I explained to Julien earlier. I don't have access to the test-suite to verify that these patches indeed fix the spectre mitigations and I was asked to backport these and then ask for help from ARM to get these tested through the test-suite. I was expecting Julien to do that earlier. Julien did ask me to verify few things earlier, which can be done without the test suite and was about checking that the new code paths are getting hit now or not, which I did. I haven't tested these on big LITTLE, though I can get the branch through LAVA to get it tested on big LITTLE but I have no clue on what I should be looking for in results :) If there is some testing that can be done on my side for this, I sure can do it. But I would need help from you on that to know what exactly I need to check. Thanks for the reviews Mark. -- viresh

I was expecting Julien to do that earlier. Ok, thanks for providing this context. As a heads-up, I'll be at LPC next week. While I'm there I won't be able to test things, and I'm unlikely to find time to review, but I'll try to do so ASAP once I return. > Julien did ask me to verify few things earlier, which can be done > without the test suite and was about checking that the new code paths > are getting hit now or not, which I did. > > I haven't tested these on big LITTLE, though I can get the branch > through LAVA to get it tested on big LITTLE but I have no clue on what > I should be looking for in results :) I think it would be worthwhile to do that ASAP to make sure there are no boot-time or run-time regressions. We can look at the logs later (or re-run with some additional logging) to verify things are working as expected. > If there is some testing that can be done on my side for this, I sure > can do it. But I would need help from you on that to know what exactly > I need to check. Sure. I'll have to take another look over the series to figure that out, and as above I might not be able to do so until after LPC -- sorry! Thanks, Mark.

Sure, so my branch already goes through some LAVA testing from Linaro and kernel-ci as well. It also gets build tested by 0-day testing bot. I will make sure it runs on some big.LITTLE stuff on LAVA. Thanks. -- viresh
