+Subject: [PATCH] Fix: rotation-destroy-flush: fix session daemon abort if no
+ kernel module present
+
+Testing rotation-destroy-flush when no lttng kernel modules present, it would
+be failed with error message:
+
+ Error: Unable to load required module lttng-ring-buffer-client-discard
+ not ok 1 - Start session daemon
+ Failed test 'Start session daemon'
+ not ok 2 - Create session rotation_destroy_flush in -o /tmp/tmp.test_rot ...
+ ...
+
+This because test script that sets the LTTNG_ABORT_ON_ERROR environment
+variable. It's this environment variable that causes the sessiond to handle the
+kernel module loading failure as an abort rather than a warning.
+
+Using "check_skip_kernel_test" to detect whether the kernel module fails to
+load is expected or not. If the failure is expected, the script won't set that
+environment variable any more.
+
+Fixes: 3a174400
+("tests:add check_skip_kernel_test to check root user and lttng kernel modules")
+
+Upstream-Status: Submitted [https://review.lttng.org/c/lttng-tools/+/12155]

+Subject: [PATCH] compat: off64_t is not defined by musl
+
+This helps compile with latest musl, where off64_t is not defined unless
+_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE is defined. On glibc, _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE is defined
+if _GNU_SOURCE is defined, so the problem is only seen with musl.
+
+Since the project uses AC_SYS_LARGEFILE, which from the autoconf doc:
+"arrange for 64-bit file offsets, known as large-file support."
+
+As such, it is safe to assume off_t is 64-bit wide. This is checked by a
+static_assert to catch any platform where autoconf would let a 32-bit
+off_t slip.

+Subject: [PATCH] tests: add check_skip_kernel_test to check root user and
+ lttng kernel modules
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+The current tests will run both userspace and kernel testing. Some of
+use cases only use lttng for one kind of tracing on an embedded
+device (e.g. userspace), so in this scenario, the kernel modules might
+not install to target rootfs, the test cases would be fail and exit.
+
+Add LTTNG_TOOLS_DISABLE_KERNEL_TESTS to skip the lttng kernel features
+test, this flag can be set via "make":
+
+ make check LTTNG_TOOLS_DISABLE_KERNEL_TESTS=1
+
+When this flag was set, all kernel related testcases would be marked as
+SKIP in result.
+
+Since the the LTTNG_TOOLS_DISABLE_KERNEL_TESTS was checked in function
+check_skip_kernel_test, lots of testcases also need to check root
+permission, so merging the root permission checking into
+check_skip_kernel_test.

+

+a variety of distros. Exclude them for now to work out if this is the
+only place we see them and give SWAT/triage a break from the stream
+of them.
