Show WARNING instead of not run for some SBSA L7 tests #109
Description
If I understand the SBSA spec language correctly, L7 RAS and MPAM rules are not all conditional requirements. Some/all of them are absolute requirements.
However, when the firmware doesn’t implement corresponding ACPI tables, the tests are just not executed and print the messages below.
- RAS nodes not found. Skipping all RAS tests
- MPAM MSCs not found. Skipping remaining MPAM tests
This seems incorrect. I think the test should result in a WARNING and print a message ”Firmware interface is missing. Please conduct a paper-based analysis”.
Moreover, for SBSA L7 PMU tests, now it results in SKIPPED and prints the message below for a similar case. Can we change the result to WARNING for the consistency?
- The test must be considered fail if system has CoreSight PMU. For non CoreSight PMU, manually verify A.4 PMU rules in the SBSA specificaction.
