The CoreSight testing contains sub cases, e.g. every CPU iterates the possible conntected sinks and tests the paths between the associated ETM with the found sink. Besides the per-thread testing, it also contains system wide testing and snapshot testing. To easier observe results for the sub cases, this patch introduces a new function arm_cs_report(), it outputs the result as "PASS" or "FAIL" for every sub case; and it records the error in the variable "glb_err" which is used as the final return value when exits the testing.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
