Subject: [LTP] [PATCH v2] landlock04: Fix false TFAIL in _test_truncate() deny path
Date: Mon, 24 Aug 2026 15:57:21 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260824135722.200152-1-avinesh.kumar@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260824103832.4058-1-linuxtestproject.agent@gmail.com>

From: Avinesh Kumar <avinesh.kumar@suse.com>

commit 8643b01a68cf converted an intentionally-unchecked open() call
(used only to get an fd for the ftruncate() sub-test) into
TST_EXP_FD_OR_FAIL(), wrongly asserting it must fail with EACCES on
the deny path. Its outcome depends on other granted rights and isn't
guaranteed, causing a false TFAIL when it succeeded.

landlock_tester.h:257: TFAIL: open(FILE_TRUNCATE, O_WRONLY, PERM_MODE) invalid retval 4: SUCCESS (0)

Restore the unchecked open() on the deny path, keep SAFE_OPEN() on the
pass path, and only treat EACCES as an expected reason to skip the
ftruncate() sub-test.

 Also fix SAFE_CLOSE(TST_RET) to SAFE_CLOSE(fd) for consistency.

Fixes: 8643b01a68cf ("tree: Use TST_EXP_PASS_OR_FAIL() and TST_EXP_FD_OR_FAIL()")
