New sysfs sanity tests
Sanity tests are mostly read-only tests that assert that sysfs files have
expected values, e.g. booleans are 0 or 1, etc. The cases where the tests are
writing the sysfs values are when we can create virtual device, e.g. TUN/TAP
networking interface.

NOTABLE CHANGES
-
RUNLTP AND LTP-PAN WERE FINALLY REMOVED
The modern replacement kirk is now production ready for several releases
hence we finally decided to remove the decade old hacky scripts to run the
tests.
See: https://kirk.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
-
New CVE tests
There are a couple more high profile CVE reproducers in the pipeline and we
expect much more to be added in next month(s).
We also have a new autogenerated page with list of all LTP CVE reproducers:
https://linux-test-project.readthedocs.io/en/latest/users/cve_catalog.html
-
New tests
- close02: Test for double close EBADF
- ioctl_getlbmd01: Test for ioctl() FS_IOC_GETLBMD_CAP on block devices.
- mremap07: Test for mremap() with MREMAP_DONTUNMAP
- io_uring03: Tests for IORING_OP_READ and IORING_OP_WRITE.
- io_submit04: Test case for RWF_NOWAIT flag
- userfaultfd06: Test case for UFFDIO_POISON
- fanotify25: Tests that fanotify works on tracing filesystem
- poll04: Test for POLLNVAL on invalid fd
- poll03: Test for POLLHUP
- chdir02: Tests that valid buffer lengts up to PATH_MAX are accepted correctly
-
Increased coverage
- mount_setattr01: Tests open_tree_attr() syscall as well.
-
Rewritten and updated tests
- aio_cancel_{2-1, 3-1, 4-1, 6-1}: Were fixed to properly block in the middle
of the write operations.
- ima_violations.sh: Was fixed to use proper synchronization with a child process.
- ima_kexec.sh: Was fixed to work with UEFI systemd-boot
- stream{01,02,03,04,05} Were cleaned up and rewritten to new test API.
- sysinfo01: Was rewritten as a proper test.
- madvise09: Was rewritten to support cgroup V2 as well.
- readahead02: Now waits for the cache to fill in order not to fail on slow
I/O devices.
-
Removed tests
-
runpwtest{01,02,05} and runpwtests_exclusive*
Which were testing removed sched_mc_power_savings and
sched_smt_power_savings sysfs knobs.
-
vmcp_m.sh A s390x userspace tool test which was moved to s390-tools package
-
The checks for CONFIG variables can now have associated runtime checks
E.g. CONFIG_USER_NS also checks for /proc/self/ns/user presense or CONFIG_KVM
checks for presence of kvm.ko module if it's set to 'm'. This simplifies the
amount of checks tests needs to do in a test setup().
-
The test library was changed to treat fuse NTFS and in-kernel NTFS as
different filesystems. Which means that tests that iterate over all available
filesystems will test both implementations now.
-
OpenPOSIX wall clock tests now detect jumps in time (due to NTP or VM steal
time) and retry the test if detected.
-
The timeouts for checkpoints are now scaled with the tst_multiply_timeout()
-
The ltp-aiodio runtest file cleanups and speedups
The dio_sparse tests were removed from ltp-aiodio.part4 since these tests are
executed in ltp-aiodio.part2 already and there is no need to run them twice.
The file sizes in the runtest files were adjusted so that the tests finish
faster without sacrificing too much coverage.
- 13 test were rewritten to the new test library API
- The usual amount of fixes and cleanups

NOTABLE CHANGES
-
New tests
- file_attr05 Check for EOPNOTSUPP when filesystem does not support FSX operations.
Regression test for 474b155adf392 ("fs: make vfs_fileattr_[get|set] return -EOPNOTSUPP")
- userfaultfd05 Test for UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT
- userfaultfd04 Test for UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE
- userfaultfd03 Test for /dev/userfaultfd
- userfaultfd02 Test for UFFDIO_MOVE
- userfaultfd01 Test for UFFD_USER_MODE_ONLY
- clone10 Test for CLONE_SETTLS

- name_to_handle_at03 Tests for AT_HANDLE_FID
-
Increased coverage
- fanotify24 Added a regression test for 28bba2c2935e2 ("fsnotify: Pass correct offset to fsnotify_mmap_perm()")
-
Rewritten and updated tests
-
lio_listio_2-1, aio_cancel_5-1 Were rewritten to actually block while writing and not relying on a chance.
-
Tests that compile and load kernel modules now properly skip the test when kernel is Lockdown/Secure boot.
-
swapon03 Now does not try to calculate the exact maximal number of swap files based on kernel config.
-
readahead02: Was fixed to wait for the readahead to happen and also updated
to use mincore() instead of system wide I/O counters.
-
ima_conditionals.sh Was split into four tests so that subset of the tests
is not skipped without CONFIG_IMA_WRITE_POLICY=y.
-
New shell tst_runas.c helper
We are replacing the use of sudo with simpler tst_runas.c helper that changes
UID and GID before executing a command. This makes tests less likely to fail
because of system restrictions on sudo (such as setting /usr/sbin/nologin as
a login shell).
-
Openposix tests had to be updated with new invalid clock IDs
Since the addition of CONFIG_POSIX_AUX_CLOCK the clock id 17 was not invalid anymore.
-
New shell library now supports setting runtime
-
New documentation:
-
Kirk was updated to v3.2.1
- The usual amount of fixes and cleanups

-
Increased coverage
- open13 now checks that more operations are failing with EBADF on O_PATH fd
and also verifies that dup() preserves O_PATH flag
-
Rewritten and updated tests
-
open posix aio_cancel_7-1 was rewritten to trigger the tested condition reliably
-
mmap22 now uses mincore() to test MAP_DROPPABLE flag
-
open posix pthread_rwlock_rdlock now use PTHREAD_RWLOCK_PREFER_WRITER_NONRECURSIVE_NP
on glibc to force POSIX mandated behavior
-
ioctl_loop01 and ioctl09 tests now use loop device instead of the backing
úfile for partitioning
-
sched_football thread synchronization at the start was rewritten to make sure
threads are started in the right order
-
Removed tests
-
General smaller improvements
-
LTP kernel modules can now be build separately with 'make modules'
-
The new shell test library now support setup() and cleanup() functions
-
The concept of min_runtime was added to the test library, now tests that run
for longer time can define min_runtime in order to make sure that the test
actually runs for a reasonable runtime when test runtime is scaled down.
For details see:
81ba405 ('tst_test: Add min_runtime to control lower bound of scaled runtime')
-
Test library now properly translates MS_RDONLY flag for FUSE based mounts
-
The test metadata parser now correctly handles designed initializers
Details in:
375286f ('metaparse: Map arrays with designated initializers to JSON objects')
-
New LTP_QUIET environment variable was introduced, if set TINFO, TDEBUG and
TCONF messages are suppresed. This can be combined with the previously
introduced LTP_REPRODUCIBLE_OUTPUT to create shorter logs that are easier to
compare between runs.
-
Kirk and ltx has been fixed and now works well together
This marks a milestone in new LTP test runner development as we are nearing
the vision we had for years. The ltx, which is minimalistic daemon that
communicates over byte oriented connection, can be started on the system
under test and kirk can connect to ltx from a machine that drives the testing
and run tests in parallel using ltx.
The documentation is sparse at the moment and kirk qemu SUT does not start
ltx automatically. However if you want to feel adventurous and try ltx in a
qemu virtual machine with communication over virtio with these steps:
Manually start qemu virtual machine on a host:
mkfifo ltx-io.in
mkfifo ltx-io.out
qemu- ... -chardev pipe,id=ltx-io,path=ltx-io -device virtserialport,chardev=ltx-io,name=ltx-io
Start ltx inside of the guest:
/opt/ltp/ltx -s /dev/virtio-ports/ltx-io
And on a host use kirk to talk to ltx via the virtio serial:
./kirk --run-suite syscalls --sut ltx:infile=ltx-io.in:outfile=ltx-io.out
Parallel run can be started by passing number of workers (-w N) to kirk.
Similarily you can run ltx and kirk over real serial null modem between two
machines.
Next step that is already in queue is separation of communication channel and
SUT definition in kirk. That will allow us to select different ways how kirk connects
to SUT e.g. qemu while the SUT module will handle the power e.g. reboot.
Hopefully that will happen in the next release and we will be finally removing the
old and deprecated runltp next year.

A few tests have been fixed not to be miscompiled by gcc-15
- we had problems with changes in structure zero initializations where
suddenly anonymous unions were not zero initialized anymore
- and also with optimzer changes that now remove malloc() + free() pairs
if the memmory is no touched between the calls
-
The tst_brk() behavior has finally been clarified and fixed, for details see
LTP commit a1f8270 ("lib/tst_test.c: Fix tst_brk() handling").
-
New library test now have reproducible output that leaves out data that
change between runs from the output, it's enabled with setting env variable
LTP_REPRODUCIBLE_OUTPUT=1
-
Our github CI is now connected to patchwork and runs LTP
compilation tests for patches:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/ltp/list/
-
The LTP_SINGLE_FS_TYPE now honors test specific filesystem skiplists and thus
can be used for general testing. There is new variable
TST_FORCE_SINGLE_FS_TYPE that ignores skiplists and is supposed to be used
for test development (which was previously the case for LTP_SINGLE_FS_TYPE).
-
The ipc runtest file that cointained only pipeio test was merged into
syscalls runtest file
-
The horrible mess in testcases/kernel/mem/lib/ library was untangled into
smaller pieces
-
43 testcases were converted to the new test library
- The usual amount of fixes and cleanups
NOTABLE CHANGES IN IMA TESTS
brought to you by Petr Vorel
-
Add support to load predefined example IMA policy with LTP_IMA_LOAD_POLICY=1
environment variable.
This allows to run tests which are otherwise skipped due required policy not
being loaded. SUT should be rebooted after each IMA tests (unless
CONFIG_IMA_WRITE_POLICY=y` the policy can be written only once or policies
can influence each other).
-
Added additional ToMToU and open-writer violation tests (new in kernel v6.14)
-
IMA: Allow to disable LSM warnings and use it for IMA (avoid misleading warnings)
- Add some example IMA policies

NOTABLE CHANGES
-
New tests
- madvise12 Tests that MADV_GUARD_INSTALL is causing SIGSEGV on access.
- fsplough A test that checks data integrity between reads and writes for a file.
- landlock08 Test for landlock bind()/connect().
- hugemmap34 Tests that kernel handles properly when stack grows into a
hugepage segment.
- rt_sigqueueinfo02 Tests for rt_sigqueueinfo() errors.
- listmount04 Tests for listmout() errors.
- listmount03 Test for EPERM on inaccesible mount point.
- listmount02 Test for group mount IDs.
- listmount01 Test for LSMT_ROOT.
- statmount08 Test for EPERM on inaccesible mount point.
- statmount07 Tests for statmount() errors.
- statmount06 Test for STATMOUNT_FS_TYPE.
- statmount05 Test for STATMOUNT_VFS_ROOT and STATMOUNT_MNT_POINT.
- statmount04 Test for STATMOUNT_PROPAGATE_FROM.
- statmount03 Test for STATMOUNT_MNT_BASIC.
- statmount02 Test for STATMOUNT_MNT_BASIC.
- statmount01 Test for statmount() without any flags.

- ioctl_ficlone02 Test for EOPNOTSUPP for usupported FS.
- ioctl_ficlone03 Tests for FICLONE errors.
- ioctl_ficlonerange01 Basic test for FICLONERANGE ioctl().
- ioctl_ficlonerange02 Tests for FICLONERANGE errors.
-
Increased coverage
- getrandom05 Tests the getrandom() syscall along with the VDSO implementation.
- landlock02 Adds landlock network coverage.
-
The failure hits (possible missing kernel patches) are now disabled until the
test library finishes intialization. This is because if we fail to set up the
test environment we haven't had a chance to reproduce the bug.
-
The test library now supports per filesystem mkfs options, mount flags and
min_kver. This is immediatelly used by FICLONE and FICLONERANGE tests since
the support for different filesystems was added into different kernel versions.
-
Rewritten tests
- both pty01 and ptem01 test were cleaned up and split into several tests
- vma05.sh is a first test rewritten to the new shell test library
- process_madvise01 now runs in memory cgroup, where we can properly control
memory pressure.
- fanotify10 Now drops cache three times to make sure inode is evicted, if
the test stil fails in certain setups, please let us know.
-
Removed tests
- logrotate_tests.sh Since logrotate has it's own testsuite it's pointless to
keep the broken LTP test.
-
Changes in test runtime and timeout handling
- the runtime and timeout values are now tracked separately
- runtime is now the time limit for a loop in the main test function
- timeout is now an safety upper limit for the test execution
- both values are per test iteration (e.g. for a single filesystem)
- the LTP_TIMEOUT_MUL now multiplies the safety limit
- the LTP_RUNTIME_MUL now multiplies for how long certain test will run
- selected (debug) kernel CONFIG_ options, if enabled now, multiply the
test timeouts
- many testcases that run >= 1s on a slow reference hardware (RPi zero) were
annotated with a proper timeout
- generally the timeout handling should just work fine (tm) without any
user adjustenments
-
Couple of fixes were applied to the test metadata extractor
so the data in ltp.json file are now more useful
-
The syscall number fallback definitions are now automatically generated from
kernel sources.
-
20 testcases were converted to the new test library
- The usual amount of fixes and cleanups
NOTABLE CHANGES IN NETWORK TESTS

-
UCLINUX support was completely removed from LTP
It was unmaintained and partially broken and nobody stepped up to maintain
the support.

New tests
- nfs09 Regression test for file truncation on NFS.
-
Increased coverage
- nfsstat01.sh: Add support for NFSv4*
-
Removed tests
- clockdiff01.sh Testing clockdiff is not relevant nowadays.
- telnet01.sh Testing telnet not make sense nowadays, remove it.
- xinetd_tests.sh Testing xinetd is not relevant nowadays.
- host01.sh The test does not work in all cases since testing host require
proper DNS setup or internet connection. Rather than fixing this
it makes sense to remove the test.

NOTABLE CHANGES
-
New tests
-
Increased coverage
-
ioctl02 cover more modern termios ioctls() as well.
-
fanotify13 More test coverage for overlayfs.
-
input* test now check UI_GET_NAME ioctl() too.
-
Removed tests
-
fork12 Which was a naive fork bomb test, we do have other tests
(setrlimit01.c, ...) that better cover this scenario.
-
mongo test framework
Which was test reiser, ext2 and jfs unmaintained for a decade.
-
simple_tracer.c Tracing test from 2009 that does not compile anymore.
-
runtest/fsx-linux This is consolidation of runtest files, since these test
duplicated in ltp-aiodio.part3.
-
testscripts/autofs{1,4}.sh, testscripts/sysfs.sh,
testscripts/ltp-scsi_debug.sh, testscripts/ltpdmmapper.sh
These were unmaintained and unused scripts.
-
scsi/* A testsuite with a custom kernel module for kernel 2.5 that didn't
compile cleanly for decades.
-
load_stress_all_kernel_modules.sh Broken for quite some time.
-
The LTP library now has a functions to iterate over different
file descriptors. That allows us to easily implement more comprehensive tests
that feed various syscalls all possible file descriptors and check that the
syscall fails properly with invalid combinations. Most notable use of this
library is the newly introduced splice07.c test.
-
The minimal size of the device for a few filesystem tests was increased to
1GB because modern filesystems, most notably Btrfs does not work properly on
smaller devices.
-
LTP now tests bcachefs if kernel support and bcache.mkfs is present
-
30 testcases were converted to the new test library
- The usual amount of fixes and cleanups
NOTABLE CHANGES IN NETWORK TESTS
brought to you by Petr Vorel
The performance tests in net.features can be now skipped by setting
LTP_NET_FEATURES_IGNORE_PERFORMANCE_FAILURE=1 which is useful when testing is
executed on VMs on a overloaded host or if we are running tests with a
background load.
KIRK (previously RUNLTP-NG)
Kirk was updated to v1.2
This version brings the following updates:
- show both stdout and stderr when executing tests on host
- support for external commands on different SUTs
- warning message when SUT doesn't support parallel execution
- more stable epoll() communication with LTX
- minor fixes
- updated documentation
