That's an excellent point.

Guys, architecture maintainers need test suites to verify that the syscalls
actually work as they wire them up.  Please share.  A stable URL would be
preferred - something which can go into the changlog or conceivably into
the kernel source.

Thanks.

Hi Andrew,

I apologize for not sending out the unshare test program by Friday as I had
promised. I got distracted with a strange problem with rmdir. Steve Grubb
first noticed it while testing the pam module that uses unshare. I was able to
reproduce the problem with one of my unshare testcases as well. Initially
I suspected the unshare code, however the problem appears to be in the
base code. I am doing some additional debugging now, so I can narrow
down the release/patch that introduced the problem. Once I gather useful
information, I will email Ram Pai and Al Viro with the appropriate
information (hopefully by tonight) and a small test program that can
reproduce the problem. My new ETA for unshare test is by tomorrow
night.

Thanks.
