Hi Vincent,

> lock_torture.sh parses the lock_torture result from dmesg by
> matching the "End of test: <RESULT>:" line.

> When the kernel is built with lock debugging enabled (e.g.
> CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES, CONFIG_DEBUG_RT_MUTEXES, CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK),
> lock_torture may print "End of test: SUCCESS [debug]: ...".
> The current regexp expects "SUCCESS:" and fails to match, causing the
> test to be reported as failure.

> Allow an optional " [debug]" token between the result string and the
> colon so the test can correctly detect SUCCESS on debug kernels.

Indeed:

torture_type, tag, cxt.debug_lock ? " [debug]": "", [1]
based on config you mentioned [2].

Thanks, merged!

Kind regards,
Petr
