Subject: Re: [RFC PATCH v3 00/32] x86: enable FRED for x86-64
We tested the v3 FRED patch set on the Intel Simics® Simulator and a machine
with a 7th Intel(R) Core(TM) CPU.
Following are the LTP verion 20220121 test results on X86-64.

The test "x86:sysret_rip_64" is NOT a valid test on FRED, and there is a fix
from Ammar Faizi after we discussed it in the LKML. Other test failures are
under investigation.
FRED is a 64-bit only feature, however the 31st patch "x86/fred: allow dynamic
stack frame size" applies to X86-32, thus we ran Kselftest and LTP on X86-32 to
see if there is any regression, and we din't find any.
Following are the Kselftest results on X86-32.
