2023-08-02selftests/powerpc/ptrace: Explain why tests are skippedBenjamin Gray
Many tests require specific hardware features/configurations that a typical machine might not have. As a result, it's common to see a test is skipped. But it is tedious to find out why a test is skipped when all it gives is the file location of the skip macro. Convert SKIP_IF() to SKIP_IF_MSG(), with appropriate descriptions of why the test is being skipped. This gives a general idea of why a test is skipped, which can be looked into further if it doesn't make sense.

2020-08-03selftests/powerpc: Skip vmx/vsx/tar/etc tests on older CPUsMichael Ellerman
Some of our tests use VSX or newer VMX instructions, so need to be skipped on older CPUs to avoid SIGILL'ing. Similarly TAR was added in v2.07, and the PMU event used in the stcx fail test only works on Power8 or later.
