[PATCH] iotests: Skip read-only cases in 118 when run as root

[PATCH] iotests: Skip read-only cases in 118 when run as root

[Kevin Wolf]

Some tests in 118 use chmod to remove write permissions from the file
and assume that the image can indeed not be opened read-write
afterwards. This doesn't work when the test is run as root, because root
can still open the file as writable even when the permission bit isn't
set.

Introduce a @skip_if_root decorator and use it in 118 to skip the tests
in question when the script is run as root.

Why not have case_notrun() return 'reason' and use:

@unittest.skipIf(os.getuid() == 0, case_notrun("cannot be run as root"))

skip_if_user_is_root() is slightly less confuse.

Because we can't skip test cases using unittest functionality, it
results in different output (the test is marked as 's' instead of '.'
and a message '(skipped=n)' is added), which means failure for
qemu-iotests.

Apart from that, it would duplicate the logic and the error message in
every place, which wouldn't be very nice anyway. With the necessary
iotests.case_notrun() the line becomes > 80 characters, too.

Not arguing that we should use unittest skipping here, but my “Selfish
patches” series allows it:

https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2019-09/msg03423.html

The advantage is that using unittest skipping works in setUp, too.

Ah, good to know. If this had already been in master, I might have
chosen a simple function call iotests.skip_if_root() inside the test
function instead of using a decorator. But in the end, I don't think it
makes a big difference in this case.
