Commit Message

The test will not work for systems with pagesize != 4096 like aarch64
and some others.

Other testcases are already testing the same functionality:
* auxv_AT_UID tests getauxval() in general.
* test_getpagesize() tests pagesize() which directly calls
  getauxval(AT_PAGESZ).

Fixes: 48967b73f8fe ("selftests/nolibc: add testcases for startup code")
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org

Note:

This should probably also make it into 6.6.

Agreed, you should just push it to the fixes branch.

Thanks!

Good point.

'fixes' now contains Ammar's alignment fix, the tree location update and
this patch.

We have used EXPECT_GE() instead of EXPECT_EQ(), so this should not
fail, do I miss something ?;-)

Thanks,

Hi Zhangjin,

Indeed, I missed that, sorry for the noise.

IMO we can still remove the testcase, but drop it from the
fixes branch and adapt the commit message and Fixes tag.
