Thanks for explanation.

We talk about in this thread -> that was only proposal. I can imagine
that will be possible to add to LTP (and I hope that Subrata will have
no problem with it)  Microblaze specific test(As exception test,
unaligned test and others). HT tests are x86 specific I hope you agree
with me in this point and these new will be only microblaze specific.

If this happen all people will  build Microblaze specific test and I
will have to add any microblaze specific macro to source code.
This bring to us that this these tests doesn't failed on their arch (of
course if these tests will be in any runtest file) and will test my arch.

It will work of course but I have doubts if this style of doing this is
the right one - that's all.

ok - As I wrote in last email at the end. I have no problem with your
proposal solution. If is a reason for that to do this way I understand.

ok. I haven't tested it.

Yes, you are right. Sorry for that.

Thanks for it, I'll look at it - it could be helpful for me.

BTW: You haven't answer me a question who will do a patch for it (your
sed command). Below is patch for your proposal. If you agree with it
I'll create proper patch for Subrata.

Thanks,
Michal
