[PATCH v1] kselftest/arm64: Print ASCII version of unknown signal frame magic values

Mark Brown broonie at kernel.org
Wed Nov 2 07:05:43 PDT 2022


The signal magic values are supposed to be allocated as somewhat meaningful
ASCII so if we encounter a bad magic value print the any alphanumeric
characters we find in it as well as the hex value to aid debuggability.
