Note(s) from the Maintainer:
This month saw some of the heated discussions on the OLS 2008 fallout
for LTP, which will continue to be in September 2008 as well. This is
required for exactly where we want to head out. The porting effort from
Yamato is flowing fine, and, we also saw some developers committing for
new test cases for the new features added in 2.6.26. We will continue to
ping them for test cases for not only the new kernel releases, but also
the earlier releases for which we still do not have test cases in LTP.
We can also hope that the remaining more than a quarter in 2008 will see
more new test cases flowing in making the tester happy.
Our web site also contains other information such as:
- A Linux test tools matrix
- Technical papers
- How To's on Linux testing
- Code coverage analysis tool.
We would encourage the community to post results to

This patch fixes the fs_inod script. On error-condition it was not setting up
proper error values and used to throw up error. Also, it was referring to a
non-existent function 'error()'. Now it returns 0 on Success or non-zero value
on Failure. I have verified this script on ReadWrite dir and ReadOnly-dir
where the tests fail. Signed-Off-By

Here is the RO Bind mount updated testcase. This script consists of 3 files.
test_robind.sh - This is the basis testcase which setups the infrastructure

fs_ro_test - Which has the different tests to be executed.
Readme_ROBind - Explains the different testcases executed.
This testcase addresses the earlier comments and has been made more generic.
Also will be adding few ioctl syscalls testcases to the fs_ro_test flatfile. As
we can append more tests to the flat file fs_ro_test. Signed-Off-By: Veerendra

12) Log Message:
In hugemmap01, huge page size was defined as a macro-definition.
#define page_sz ((1UL) << 24) /* Huge page size */
However different architecture may has different huge page size in kernel. Such
as :
1. http://lxr.linux.no/linux/include/asm-i386/page.h#L122
#define HPAGE_SHIFT 22
#define HPAGE_SIZE ((1UL) << HPAGE_SHIFT) // the size is 4M
2. http://lxr.linux.no/linux/include/asm-parisc/page.h#L160
#define HPAGE_SHIFT 22 /* 4MB (is this fixed?) */
#define HPAGE_SIZE ((1UL) << HPAGE_SHIFT)
3. PPC: 16M
So read the huge page size for the kernel parameters is reasonable. The
solution is to get the huge page size from the /proc/meminfo. Signed-off-by:

In message_queue_test_05, it planned to allocate 100 message queues for stress
testing. But if the system resource of message queue couldn't meet it, it would
exit without deleting the allocated message queues. In addition, other test
cases couldn't allocate a new message queue any more. This patch addresses this
by:
1> Add a cleanup() to remove the created message queues at premature exit.
2> Change the default number of message queues from 100 to 10. Because the
maxmum on RHEL/SLES/Ubuntu is 16.

In semaphore_test_01 case, it wanted to create a semaphore and printed out the

remove the semaphore. I wrote the bash script

Intial Addition of sync_file_range() syscall test to LTP. I have developed test
cases for sync_file_range() system call which will do the basic sanity (error)
checking for the system call. These tests have to be run on 2.6.17 kernel and
above. The test cases have been currently tested only on x86 and x86_64
architecture. Also, I have hard coded the system call number in the test case
for review purposes and will be later on moving it to linux_syscall_numbers.h
file in the LTP framework. The support for PowerPC was provided from 2.6.22
kernel onwards. I had not taken care of it in my previous patch. Now this is
addressed. Signed-Off-By: "B. N. Poornima" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.

This is a patch from John, written a few months back. I have fixed up a few
cosmetic whitespace bits, and have refreshed it so it should apply cleanly to
LTP today. Will Schmidt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
Comments originally by John Stultz:
So I've been trying to go through and review our test cases to make sure we're
getting sane data and the tests are really testing what we want. Looking at
gtod_latency and gtod_infinite, I was always struck that gtod_infinite always
came up with much larger latencies while gtod_latency usually seemed to miss
them. Main issues:
1) gtod_latency was not running for long enough, I've upped the iterations by
10x to make sure we get more solid results.
2) gtod_latency was doing too much computation between gtod calls. This means
it could miss latencies that occur while it was running. I reworked the data
collection loop so the un-measured window is smaller.
3) gtod_infinite was accidentally measuring its own computation in its delay,
inflating its values. I cut that logic out.
4) both gtod_latency and gtod_infinite were not running mlocked. this caused
background SCHED_OTHER disk access to inject delays, making the results less
reliable.
Those four issues have been fixed, and I also converted gtod_latency to use
clock_gettime() just to be consistent and to give slightly better resolution.

The LTP numa testcases were initially designed for libnuma API in version 1.
Building latest LTP (intermediate 20080820) against latest version of libnuma
(2.0.2) requires -DNUMA_VERSION1_COMPATIBILITY in the CFLAGS - to switch to to
the compatibility interface of libnuma API version 1. There are no libnuma
testcases for API version 2 in ltp yet. Currently -DNUMA_VERSION1_COMPATIBILITY
will not help for the LTP numa testcase, since the compability interface is
missing some interface from version 1: Fix for the VERSION1 compatibility
interface got already send to linux-numa list. I hope the libnuma fix got
accepted and attached can be applied to LTP soon to fix the build of the LTP
numa testcases, when building against libnuma 2.0.2 or greater. Signed-off-by:

Was just browsing through and found that this piece of code is not

up to the Makefile(s). I am however investigating the best possible way to run
them. Signed-Off-By: Subrata Modak <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. Heh, seclvl hasn't been
in the kernel in quite some time. Should it be dropped? BTW, Mike, I'd expect
you to consider re-implementing some of seclvl using capability bounding sets.
"Serge E. Hallyn" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. I do not anticipate that anyone will
ever try to get seclvl back into the kernel, so I vote that the test be dropped
from LTP. Michael Halcrow <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.

Addition of getcpu() syscall to LTP. I have fixed the problem noticed earlier.
Hope it will be fine this time. More over I wanted to mention that I have
dropped getcpu2.c as it was found to be less relevant for getcpu() testing.
Andi had made some suggestions to improve the test, I am submitting this before
making all those changes. If possible I will sit and work on Andi's suggestion.

Conformance/interfaces/timer_getoverrun/2-2 has failed on tests with some

these machines are running kernel with timer frequency configured to 100 Hz,
which represents a clock precision smaller than the defined INTERVALNSEC. This
patch sets the interval equals to the clock precision (retrieved via function
clock_getres()), in order to avoid to use a interval smaller than the
resolution of the clock. However, with these changes, this testcase becomes
very similar to the test 2-3. Is this a valid modification? If not, any thought
what should be done in this case?. Signed-off-by: Edjunior Barbosa Machado

In testcases/kernel/sched/tool/time-schedule, it used kill(0, SIGTERM) to
terminate the all the processes in the group. However, the progress group
leader might be different regarding the different call methods. In interactive
call such as pan, it called time-schedule by exec() and setpgrp() as a child
process. The time-schedule process would be the process group leader and all
the child processes created by it had the same PGID. So the SIGTERM was sent to
process group and the exit code got by pan was 0. In non-inactive call such as
STAF/STAX, one shell script called the time-schedule directly. The shell script
would be the process group leader. So the SIGTERM was also sent to the shell
script and the exit code got by STAF/STAX was 143 (128+15). This patch can
resolve this problem.
