Subject: [LTP] [PATCH v6 1/3] lapi/sched: add SAFE_SCHED_SETATTR()
Date: Thu, 03 Sep 2026 09:26:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260903-cve-ghostlock-v6-1-a3272bb81e4d@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260903-cve-ghostlock-v6-0-a3272bb81e4d@suse.com>

From: Andrea Cervesato <andrea.cervesato@suse.com>

Add a safe variant of sched_setattr() that breaks the test with TBROK
on failure, so tests such as the CVE-2026-43499 reproducer do not have
to open-code the TEST() + tst_brk() error handling.
