[LTP] [PATCH v3 0/5] Add support for .max_kver

[LTP] [PATCH v3 0/5] Add support for .max_kver

[Petr Vorel]

Changes v2->v3:
* Allow to pass mainline release (e.g. max_version = "7.1") on any stable
  release (e.g. 7.1.5). Stable releases (e.g. 7.1.5) are compared as
  expected. For this I'd like an explicit ack.

Link to v2:
https://lore.kernel.org/ltp/6a6a2091.9b80fa5d.4e4ae.7aac@mx.google.com/T/#t

Changes v1->v2:
* Fixed version 6.11 => 6.10 (execve04, creat07)
* Fixed version 7.2 => 7.1 (fanotify20)

Could the message explain that the rename distinguishes the minimum-version
helper from the new maximum-version helper, without referring to a later
patch? The current body does not explain the change independently.

--- [PATCH 2/5] ---

Could this example use ``max_kver``? As written, the new field documents the
opposite API.

> +	for (i=0, dots=0; max_kver[i]; i++)

Could spaces be added around both assignment operators to follow kernel
coding style?

--- [PATCH 3/5] ---

> +	.max_kver = "6.10",

Could this test be allowed to run again on Linux 7.2? In that tree,
do_open_execat() calls exe_file_deny_write_access() and returns ETXTBSY when
the executable is open for writing (fs/exec.c:800-802).

A permanent maximum version therefore reports TCONF for behavior that is
valid again. It cannot represent the temporary 6.11 through 7.1 behavior
window.

--- [PATCH 4/5] ---

> +	.max_kver = "6.10",

Could creat07 also be allowed to run again on Linux 7.2? The exec path makes
i_writecount negative through exe_file_deny_write_access(), and creat() then
reaches get_write_access(), which returns ETXTBSY for a negative count
(include/linux/fs.h:2813-2816).

This maximum bound suppresses valid 7.2 coverage and cannot describe the
temporary 6.11 through 7.1 behavior window.

--- [PATCH 5/5] ---

Could this claim be corrected? Other tests exercise FAN_REPORT_TID and
FAN_REPORT_PIDFD separately, but fanotify20 is the only LTP test combining
them.

> +	.max_kver = "7.1",

Could the first case instead expect success when thread pidfds are supported,
while retaining the second valid-combination check? Linux 7.2 now uses
task_pid(current) for FAN_REPORT_TID and creates a thread pidfd
(fs/notify/fanotify/fanotify.c:843-849 and
fs/notify/fanotify/fanotify_user.c:906-913). Skipping the whole test removes
the only coverage of the newly valid combination.

Verdict - Needs revision

Re: [LTP] lib: Rename function check_kver() => check_min_kver()

[Andrea Cervesato via ltp]

Hi Petr,

> @Cyril @Andrea could you also please double check?

It's correct.

The legacy ETXTBSY behavior was fully restored in commit
3b832035387f (Revert "fs: don't block i_writecount during exec").

So we have a window where this is not valid anymore and we should
take this in consideration inside the test.

In that case we want to have both in a single commit, right?
=> yet another version.

[LTP] [PATCH v3 2/5] lib: Add support for max_kver to struct tst_test and tst_fs

[Petr Vorel]

max_kver adds a support to require a maximal kernel version the test can
run on. e.g. "7.2" (mainline release) or "6.1.180" (stable release).

NOTE: Mainline release is sufficient on any stable release (test with
.min_kver = "7.1" runs also on kernel 7.1.5). Stable releases are
compared as expected.

Hi Petr,
This looks good. I tested it (and other patches) as well.

on my system, test runs fine -
tst_test.c:2097: TINFO: Tested kernel: 7.1.4-1-default
...

and
on >=7.2

# ./fanotify20
tst_test.c:1118: TCONF: The test requires kernel 7.1 or older


so feel free to add

[LTP] [PATCH v3 5/5] fanotify20: Skip on v7.2

[Petr Vorel]

fanotify_init() used to reject FAN_REPORT_PIDFD combined with
FAN_REPORT_TID with EINVAL. Since Linux v7.2, fanotify supports
reporting pidfds for thread IDs, so this combination is expected to
succeed.

The test that these flag combinations are allowed:
                FLAGS_DESC(FAN_REPORT_PIDFD | FAN_REPORT_TID),
		FLAGS_DESC(FAN_REPORT_PIDFD | FAN_REPORT_FID |
			   FAN_REPORT_DFID_NAME),

Because the above flag combinations are already "tested" by the tests
that use them and we don't have any tests that >= 5.10 has support for
FAN_MARK_FILESYSTEM etc just simply skip the test on v7.2.
