+Phoronix Test Suite 10.8.2
+13 February 2022
 
+pts-core: Arch Linux external dependency updates
 pts-core: Workaround/fix PHP 5.4 usage with RHEL7-based distributions
 pts-core: Convert compiler / multicore / single-threaded test suites into virtual test suites since their properties can be auto-determined based on OB metadata to avoid manually maintaining them
 pts-core: Add virtual test suites for "riscv" and "aarch64" to make it easy to show test profiles that can run successfully on RISC-V and 64-bit Arm hardware
+phodevi: Improved detection for components found on the Steam Deck and other hardware
 phodevi: Add Arm Cortex-X1C detection
-phodevi: CPU temperature reporting for additional SoCs
-phoromatic: Additional input sanitization
+phodevi: CPU temperature reporting for additional SoCs such as the Raspberry Pi 400
+phoromatic: Additional input sanitization and validation improvements

 <hr style="height: 50px; border: 0;"><a name="VirtualTestSuites"></a><h1>Virtual Test Suites</h1>
 <p>Virtual test suites are not like a traditional test suite defined by the XML suite specification. Virtual test suites are dynamically generated in real-time by the Phoronix Test Suite client based upon the specified test critera. Virtual test suites can automatically consist of all test profiles that are compatible with a particular operating system or test profiles that meet other critera. When running a virtual suite, the OpenBenchmarking.org repository of the test profiles to use for generating the dynamic suite must be prefixed. </p>
 <p>Virtual test suites can be installed and run just like a normal XML test suite and shares nearly all of the same capabilities. However, when running a virtual suite, the user will be prompted to input any user-configuration options for needed test profiles just as they would need to do if running the test individually. When running a virtual suite, the user also has the ability to select individual tests within the suite to run or to run all of the contained test profiles. Virtual test suites are also only supported for an OpenBenchmarking.org repository if there is no test profile or test suite of the same name in the repository. Below is a list of common virtual test suites for the main Phoronix Test Suite repository, but the dynamic list of available virtual test suites based upon the enabled repositories is available by running <em>phoronix-test-suite list-available-virtual-suites.</em></p><hr>
