YNL test fails

[MohanPrasad-J]

While I try to run ingest_mdir.py for a series of patches. The YNL test always fails throwing up an error log(stderr) with the below warning.
netdev.c: In function ‘main’:
netdev.c:82:9: warning: ignoring return value of ‘scanf’ declared with attribute ‘warn_unused_result’ [-Wunused-result]
82 | scanf("%d", &ifindex);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

netdev.c being in the directory /tools/net/ynl/samples/netdev.c
I observed that these tests are passing in the patchwork system.
Since this is not a part of change I did, The YNL test should not fail for my series of patches.
How to resolve this?

I submitted a fix: https://lore.kernel.org/20240828173609.2951335-1-kuba@kernel.org
Just to be clear, are you trying to run the tests to test your own submissions? Or for compliance with the upstream testing requirement for drivers?

I am running the tests for compliance with the upstream testing requirement.

I was afraid you'd say that :) Please read the announcement carefully https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240425114200.3effe773@kernel.org/
You don't have to run the basic build / code checker tests. As point 2 in the announcement states, you have to run drivers/net and drivers/net/hw against your device.
