[LTP] [PATCH] Run the eventfd test in a temporary directory, because it creates some files

[LTP] [PATCH] Run the eventfd test in a temporary directory, because it creates some files

[Jiri Palecek]

Hello,

the eventfd test creates some files in the current directory. I think it should be creating the files in a temporary directory instead, as is already the standard with other LTP tests, because the current might be nonwriteable and the user might not want the files left there.

Regards

Thanks. 

Recently i have seen some patches on LKML from Davide on the change for
eventfd() interface. Could you please verify how they will affect our
tests, and, make changes if necessary ?

No worry. It is the internal (kernel) interface that will eventually 
change. Userspace will not be affected by it.
