[PATCH v2] selftests: clone3: Use the capget and capset syscall directly

[zhouyuhang]

From: zhouyuhang <zhouyuhang@kylinos.cn>

The libcap commit aca076443591 ("Make cap_t operations thread safe.")
added a __u8 mutex at the beginning of the struct _cap_struct, it changes
the offset of the members in the structure that breaks the assumption
made in the "struct libcap" definition in clone3_cap_checkpoint_restore.c.
This will make the test fail. So use the capget and capset syscall
directly and remove the libcap library dependency like the
commit 663af70aabb7 ("bpf: selftests: Add helpers to directly use
the capget and capset syscall") does.

Sorry you haven't addressed my comments on your v1 yet.

I repeat that this is not the right direction to define system
calls locally.

Try this:

Run make headers in the kernel repo.
Build without making any changes.
Then add you changes and add linux/capability.h to include files

Tell me what happens.

I got it. I am willing to modify the code so that syscalls are not 
defined in local files,
but this would require including sys/capability.h which would not remove 
the
dependency on the libcap library. So, should we directly use syscalls or 
use the
libcap library function in the "set_capability" function, or do you have 
a better way.
I'd like to refer to your advice.

I tried this, here are my steps.

Firstly, I ran 'make headers' in the kernel repo and it was successful.
Then I wasn't quite sure which path you were referring to as' build ',
so I compiled and installed libcap, and also compiled test, all of which 
were successful.
Afterwards, I applied my patch and the test was successfully built and 
running.
I guess what you're trying to express may be that these system calls 
have already
been defined in sys/capability, and those defined in the local file are 
duplicated with it.
So I included sys/capability.h and linux/capability.h and defined the 
system calls in the test,
but there were no errors.

I think there may be a problem with my operation, and I hope you can 
point it out.

Sorry if what I said wasn't clear:

- This test depends on libcap and yes you will have to install it.
- Run ake headers in the kernel repo.
- Build the test without your patch (changes)
- If you don't have libcap, the test build will fail
- Install libcap
- Build and run.

Looks like you have done the above. Now:

- Add your patch without the local capget() and capset()
   and without removing

> so I compiled and installed libcap, and also compiled test, all of which were successful.

Why do you need to compile libcap? Is it because this latest
change isn't available to install from the distro you are using?

Correct. You don't need the local defines and in fact you should not
define them locally.

Please don't define system calls locally. What happens if you don't?

It will generate the following warning but can be compiled successfully,
because my patch only includes linux/capability.h and removes the local 
capget() and capset().

No, I just didn't fully understand the path you were referring to as 
"build",
so I compiled libcap as well, which wasn't really necessary.

I know it can be successfully compiled without any warnings.
Because I added sys/capability.h here, which was not included earlier.

What I want to express is that I tested that defining them again in the
local file would not cause compilation errors, but I know this is 
incorrect,
so I will remove them and modify the test to make it pass.

Let's go back to this code.
I think there may be the following solutions to modify this code on the 
basis of removing local system calls:

1. Includes linux/capability.h, using capget and capset, but this will 
result in compilation warnings.
2. Includes sys/capability.h, using capget and capset.
3. Includes sys/capability.h, using libcap library functions.

I tend to use capget and capset, By doing so, test may not need to be 
maintained again in the future.
Which of the above solutions do you think is better, and I will refer to 
your suggestions to modify the code and resend the patch.
