Summary

  • Replaces `charset` with 'charset' inside the iconv-upstream DASHBOARD_ENTRIES description string in tools/ci/known_failures.conf.
  • Backticks inside double-quoted bash strings are command substitution; sourcing the file ran charset as a command and exited 127, breaking the required interop / interop with upstream rsync CI check on master and on every open PR that inherited the failure.
  • The neighbouring # daemon-mode iconv: \charset =` directive parsed but not wired to iconv runtimecomment is unaffected because backticks inside#` comments are inert.

The unwired charset directive itself is tracked in #1917 (daemon-side iconv / charset not yet threaded into the iconv runtime); this PR is purely a CI hygiene fix.

Test plan

  • bash -c 'source tools/ci/known_failures.conf && echo OK: \${#KNOWN_FAILURES[@]} known + \${#DASHBOARD_ENTRIES[@]} dashboard entries' returns OK: 3 known + 8 dashboard entries (was line 161: charset: command not found).
  • Required interop / interop with upstream rsync CI check passes on this PR.
  • After merge, the same check turns green on master and on the downstream PRs whose only failure was the inherited interop break.

Bash interprets backticks inside double-quoted strings as command
substitution. Line 138 of tools/ci/known_failures.conf wrapped the
word `charset` in backticks inside a DASHBOARD_ENTRIES entry, so
sourcing the file ran `charset` as a command and aborted the script
with exit 127, breaking the required `interop / interop with upstream
rsync` CI check on master and every downstream PR.

Replace the backticks with single quotes; the comment on the
preceding line is unaffected because backticks inside `#` comments
are inert.
