Subject: [PATCH] selftests/lkdtm: Use "comm" instead of "diff" for dmesg
Message-ID: <202006261358.3E8AA623A9@keescook>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Disposition: inline
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

Instead of full GNU diff (which smaller boot environments may not have),
use "comm" which is more available.
