PATCH 1/1 kselftest/arm64: pac: Fix skipping of tests on systems without PAC

The PAC tests check to see if the system supports the relevant PAC features but instead of skipping the tests if they can't be executed they fail the tests which makes things look like they're not working when they are.

I thought briefly about bikeshedding the name but didn't come up with anything that was sufficiently better/clearer.

That's what the patch does?

Agree, I saw few other testcases where ASSERT is used along with SKIP. (tools/testing/selftests/core/close_range_test.c) so this way ASSERT_GENERIC_* macro will be clear. There will be just an extra log like "hwcaps & HWCAP_PACA = 0" in this case.

Probably your way is consistent as other tests in arm64 also just skips due to HWCAP mismatch.

I'm not 100% sure I follow what you're saying here? I don't see a log message saying "hwcaps & HWCAP_PACA = 0" on non-PAC systems, or is that what you're saying you want to see?

Right, we can't usefully run tests for features not present in the system - this sort of thing is the intent of the kselftest skip feature.

Applied to arm64 (for-next/kselftest), thanks!
