Hi everyone,

the testall.sh script in the kernel_test directory of
{ccs,tomoyo}-tools runs "dmesg -c" which prints and clears the kernel
ring buffer when run as root.
This makes it impractical when running automated tests, because the
kernel buffer should not be cleared for something like this.

IMHO this should be removed, unless there is a good reason to keep
this behavior.

Affected are ccs-tools and tomoyo-tools 2.4 and 2.5.

Regards,

thomasg
