Hello,

The aim of this patch series is to improve the resctrl selftest.
Without these fixes, some unnecessary processing will be executed
and test results will be confusing. 
There is no behavior change in test themselves.

[patch 1] Make write_schemata() run to set up shemata with 100% allocation
	  on first run in MBM test.
[patch 2] The MBA test result message is always output as "ok",
	  make output message to be "not ok" if MBA check result is failed.
[patch 3] When a child process is created by fork(), the buffer of the 
	  parent process is also copied. Flush the buffer before
	  executing fork().
[patch 4] An error occurs whether in parents process or child process,
	  the parents process always kills child process and runs
	  umount_resctrlfs(), and the child process always waits to be
	  killed by the parent process.
[patch 5] If a signal received, to cleanup properly before exiting the
	  parent process, commonize the signal handler registered for 
	  CMT/MBM/MBA tests and reuse it in CAT, also unregister the 
	  signal handler at the end of each test.
[patch 6] Before exiting each test CMT/CAT/MBM/MBA, clear test result 
	  files function cat/cmt/mbm/mba_test_cleanup() are called
	  twice. Delete once.

This patch series is based on Linux v6.2-rc7.

Difference from v7:
[patch 4] 
  - Fix commitlog.
[patch 5]
  - Fix commitlog.

Hi Shuah,

Could you please consider taking this series in via the 
linux-kselftest tree?

Thank you very much

+x86 maintainers

Dear kselftest and x86 maintainers,

I am wondering about the appropriate path for this series and
also other pending resctrl selftest patches. Would you prefer it
routed via x86 or kselftest? If x86 I expect that we have to do
a better job of including x86 maintainers in all resctrl
selftest patch reviews.

A later patch series was picked up by kselftest causing a conflict with
this series. Could you please submit a new version that is based on
the "next" branch of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shuah/linux-kselftest.git ?

Thank you very much
