Hi, I do not believe canonical is committing to fix all the upstream/mainline selftest failures. However, if there are additional selftest regressions with the ubuntu kernel which are not seen with the mainline build, those are worth looking into. If these selftests never pass on POWER maybe it is worth pinging power kernel maintainers to mark these as expected failures? Regards, Dimitri.
