I quickly browsed through the tests. Looks good to me. One comment on test run scope. Since timers now include destructive tests, run_tests target should only run the non-destructive by default and destructive tests. I didn't see the run_destructive_tests in this set of changes in the timers/Makefile. Please see cpu-hotplug and memory-hotplug as examples that support default and full range tests. thanks, -- Shuah -- Shuah Khan Sr. Linux Kernel Developer Open Source Innovation Group Samsung Research America (Silicon Valley) [email protected] | (970) 217-8978 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
