Adding some more comments: 1. I have observed that the 'ash' shell present in the busybox will not be supporting all the functionalities required for running LTP on Android. To resolve this, we need to cross compile the bash-4.1 for Android. This change is working fine for me. 2 . Remount the '/' in read write mode in Android. Create /bin and /tmp directories (most of the LTP test cases depends on the existence of these directories ie: #!/bin/sh ). Push the cross compiled bash to /bin directory and create the symbolic link 'sh' from 'bash'. We can also place the above mentioned busybox in the /bin directory and create the required links. 3. Bionic header files are placed in different directories eg: in LTP <wait.h> should be modified as <sys/wait.h> , <sys/fcntl.h> should be modified as <fcntl.h> ... etc :) 4. Some syscalls should be modified using "syscall(__N_syscallname,parameters...)" which is present in <sys/syscall.h> 5. Better to have cross compiled 'perl' binary since we need to run some perl scripts also. Finally push all the above mentioned binaries along with cross compiled LTP binaries to Android for the 'real test'. Best Regards, Maxin B.
