I'm ok for this from a long term perspective, because agree Richie it can help people to run tests on kernel from next tree or mainline rc kernel). It's not much work to maintain this. It'd also help people writing tests for fanotify and IMA not having wait several weeks. Yes, we could add it to fanotify22 [1], but not to ima_conditionals.sh [2], which is shell. But adding support to shell is trivial. Acked-by: Petr Vorel .... > +++ b/runtest/syscalls-unstable How about having name syscalls-next? Although there can be tests which are from some kernel maintainer tree (it does not have to be limited to next tree), unstable can mean "tests which aren't fixed yet and thus buggy". > @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ > +# Tests for kernel features which are not finalized > + > +fanotify22 fanotify22 Kind regards, Petr [1] https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/ltp/list/?series=272782 [2] https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/ltp/list/?series=265664 -- Mailing list info: https://lists.linux.it/listinfo/ltp
