From caf9eb6b4c82fc6cbd03697052ff22d97b0c377b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Hansen Date: Wed, 9 May 2018 10:13:44 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86/pkeys/selftests: Avoid printf-in-signal deadlocks printf() and friends are unusable in signal handlers. They deadlock. The pkey selftest does not do any normal printing in signal handlers, only extra debugging. So, just print the format string so we get *some* output when debugging.
