LTP 20220121

Since the last release 269 patches by 32 authors were merged.

Patch review is what most of the projects struggle with and LTP is no
different. If you can spare some effort helping with the patch review is more
than welcomed.

NOTABLE CHANGES

New tests
- quotactl{08,09} tests for quota info hidden in filesystem.
- fanotify22 test for FAN_FS_ERROR events by intentionally corrupting a fs image
- memcontrol02 test for cgroup memory.current and memory.stat
- memcontrol01 test for cgroup subtree_control and memory controller
- write06 test if write() works correctly with O_APPEND fd
- statx08 statx test for the stx_attributes_mask
- fanotify{20,21} tests for FAN_REPORT_PIDFD
- irqbalance01 test that tries to assert that IRQ are spread between CPUs reasonably
- dup207 tests that file offset is correct for both original and dup()ed fds
- dup206 tests special case where oldfd == newfd
- ima_conditionals.sh test uid, gid, fowner, and fgroup options added
  in kernel commit 40224c41661b ("ima: add gid support") from v5.16
Increased coverage
- quotactl* tests added support for quotactl_fd and hidden quota files
- quotaclt* tests also test with vfsv1 format
- statx01 added check for stx_mnt_id
- statx01 added check for nlink
- stat01 added check for nlink
- finit_module02 added ETXTBSY check
- epoll_create added two test variants (libc wrapper and raw syscall)
- creat09 runs on all filesystems now
- dup202 added check that file mode is same after it has been changed on dup()ed fd
The test library process, that watches over timeouts and carries on with the
test cleanup, now adjusts it's own OOM score so that it's more likely that it
outlives the child process that runs the test
First half of the ltp-aiodio testcases was rewritten and cleaned up
- the rewritten tests are free of runtest file hacks that were problematic for years
- the second half should get fixed during the next development cycle
- the rewritten tests so far are:
  - dio_truncate
  - dio_read (previously ltp-diorh)
  - dio_append
  - dio_sparse
  - aiodio_append
39 tests were rewritten to the new library
'make check' improvements
- added check if test.tags is properly NULL terminated
- added check if test global functions and variables are static
- fixed not to report tst_ prefixed static inline functions
The test library gained support for 'known-fail' tag
- to mark kernel bugs that are unfixed for a long time
- this is similar to the existing tags
- the first use of the interface are ustat() tests that are failing on Btrfs
  ever since the introduction of the filesystem
The test library gained support for version check when a tool is required to
be installed on a system, e.g. .needs_cmds = {"mkfs.ext4 >= 1.43.0", NULL} will
skip the test unless the mkfs.ext4 is present and the version is at least 1.43.0
The test library added .supported_archs field to the test_test structure
which can be used to limit the test to a subset of CPU architectures
The test library added .skip_in_compat flag to skip tests in compat (-m32) mode
The shell library gained support boolean expressions on kernel .config
variables
New environment variable KCONFIG_SKIP_CHECK was added that allows users to
skip kernel config checks
New environment variable LTP_SINGLE_FS_TYPE was added that can be
used to limit tests that run against all filesystem to a single one
The new library testcases now print environment variables in help (-h)
The test metadata are parsed during the build and installed by default now,
which is another step towards making the test executor smarter.

The usual amount of fixes and cleanups

WHAT IS IN THE QUEUE

In-flight patchse include:

KVM test infrastructure that would allow us implement KVM regression tests
watchqueue (pipe based kernel notification) testsuite
futex_waitv tests
CGroup testcases and fixes
Test runtime API for the test library that would allow us to controll
testrun runtime explicitly and fix a few tests that run into timeouts
on older/slower hardware

Unfortunately the runltp-ng is still not included in LTP, we will try to work
on it during the next development cycle as well, but we can't promise it will
be rock stable to be included in the next release either.

LTP 20210927

Since the last release 483 patches by 40 authors were merged.

This is a record breaking release by the number of patches as well as by the
amount of newly implemented functionality. Many thanks to all contributors!

And even more thanks to the reviewers!

Patch review is what most of the projects struggle with and LTP is no
different. If you can spare some effort helping with the patch review is more
than welcomed.

- wait403 INT_MIN negation reproducer
- vsock01 race condition reproducer aka CVE-2021-26708
- icmp_rate_limit01 DNS cache poisoning attack aka CVE-2020-25705
Increased coverage
- epoll_create02 checks for more EINVAL failures
- epoll_ctl03 checks that the syscall works with all valid flags combinations
- mbind01 more tests for MPOL_LOCAL
- epoll_pwait01 adds test variants for epoll_pwait2()
75 tests were rewritten to the new library
Removed tests
- sched/stress as it was unmaintained and unused for years
- stress_cd and stress_floppy since these scripts were broken and unmaintained for years
- disktest as it was unmaintained and unused for years
The CI was moved from Travis to GitHub actions
'make check' was introduced to the LTP build system
- which is a tool for developers that runs various sanity checks on the source code
- this includes:
  - checkpatch.pl, custom set of sparse rules for C
  - checkbashism.pl for shell
- please make sure you run 'make check' or 'make check-testname' and fix the
  warnings before submitting patches
Subset of our library tests i.e. tests for the test library is now executed
CI in github actions, this is ongoing effort to make sure that the test library
used by the testcases is working as expected
The test library was fixed to print all messages to stderr
Testcases were fixed not to expect certain users and groups to be present on the system
- some tests were expecting bin, daemon and similar groups and users to exist on the system
- now LTP depends only on user 'nobody' and group 'nogroup'
New environment variable LTP_VIRT_OVERRIDE was added
- this is meant as a quick workaround for cases where the test library
  cannot properly detect if system is virtualized or not
- see https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/wiki/User-Guidelines
Fixed (again) timeouts in shell test library
- turns out you cannot make timeouts in shell race-free so the timeout logic
  is now implemented in a small C helper binary
Finally after the years we are slowly making tests limits-aware
- cgropup tests and a few others are now aware of pid limits imposed by the system
- next step would be doing rough estimates on the number of processes we can run
  based on the free system memory
There is ongoing effort to fix LTP cgroup tests, this release includes many
small fixes and improvements in the cgroup tests
The aarch64 system call table was fixed not to include 32bit only syscall numbers
The TST_EXP_*() macros were improved and a few bugs were fixed
The test library developer documentation and tutorials were reorganized and improved

The more that the usual amount of fixes and cleanups

WHAT IS IN THE QUEUE

Next release will hopefully include runltp-ng which is new and improved LTP
testrunner. The current runltp script will be maintained alongside with the
new solution for some time but removed after a few releases.

You are more than welcome to try it and make sure that it works for you before
it becomes the official LTP testrunner.

See: https://github.com/metan-ucw/runltp-ng

METADATA EXTRACTION & TEST CATALOGUE

There is an ongoing experiment that attempts to extract metadata from the
testcases, we also have a proof of concept web page that renders the json
metadata into a browseable test documentation. There is not much there yet,
but we are hoping, among other things, to build a nice, searchable and
browseable test catalogue based on these efforts.

New testcases
- ipsec: test also randomized message length
- features: new checksum testcases
- virt: add mode l3s in ipvlan test
- netstress: support SO_REUSEPORT, MSG_ZEROCOPY
Various tests converted into new API
- (arping01, broken_ip, clockdiff01, ip_tests.sh, ping0{1|0}, tracepath, traceroute)
Various small fixes and enhancements, most notable ones:
- dhcp: correct prefix for expected IPv6 address)
- lower down packet size to minimum, which still be high enough to require
  fragmentation. This is critical for performance tests, which compare
  virtual devices with the real ones.
- netstress: various fixes to avoid false-positives
- dhcp: AppArmor and SELinux fixes, fix paths for non-RHEL distros
