Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/2] selftest: add tests for mkdirat_fd()
Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2026 19:19:59 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260331172011.3512876-3-jkoolstra@xs4all.nl> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260331172011.3512876-1-jkoolstra@xs4all.nl>
Add some tests for the new mkdirat_fd() syscall to test compliance and
to showcase its behaviour.
