Yes, that would be great. I think we can iterate until we hit the poll path, otherwise we skip the test at timeout. Something as: while (true): send msg if netpoll_poll_dev() was invoked: ksft_exit if timeout: raise KsftSkipEx As soon as your code lands, I will adapt the test to do so. Meanwhile, I will send the v1 for the netpoll, and later we can iterate. Thanks for working on this bfptrace helper. This will be useful on other usecases as well. --breno
