| |
WEXITSTATUS consists of the least significant 8 bits of the status argument, so we should convert the value to signed char if we have valid negative exit codes. And the return value of test->func() contains negative values:
enum { TEST_OK = 0, TEST_FAIL = -1, TEST_SKIP = -2, };
Before this patch:
$ perf test -v 1 ... test child finished with 254 ---- end ---- vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms: FAILED!
After this patch:
$ perf test -v 1 ... test child finished with -2 ---- end ---- vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms: Skip
