Hi,
I am currently working on the task for kselftest patch. Just to confirm, are we to work on the kselftest tree( https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shuah/linux-kselftest.git/ )? Also, I am not sure how to pick messages to improve as the selftests generated are very short and specific. Is there any TODO list I can refer to?

Thanks for your help!

    You can use linux-kselftest next branch - build tests and try to fix warns if you see them. Run a few tests and see if messages can be improved - does the test tell you clearly what the failure is or why a test is skipped etc.
