| |
On some systems, the default echo command doesn't handle the -e option and the output looks like this (arm64 build):
-ne Emit Tests for alsa
-ne Emit Tests for amd-pstate
-ne Emit Tests for arm64
This is for example the case with the KernelCI Docker images e.g. kernelci/gcc-10:x86-kselftest-kernelci. To avoid this issue, use printf which handles escape characters as a standard feature and is more widespread among modern shells.
The output is now formatted as expected (x86 build this time):
Emit Tests for alsa Emit Tests for amd-pstate Skipping non-existent dir: arm64

Notes: v2: use printf insead of $(which echo)
