NOTABLE CHANGES
-
New tests
- fanotify17 - tests for fanotify() user limits
- fanotify18 - tests for validating user permissions
- fanotify19 - tests for unpriviledged events
- brk02 - test that removes two VMAs on shrink
- close_range{01,02} - basic close_range() tests

- writev03 regression test for d4690f1e1cda 'fix iov_iter_fault_in_readable()'
- io_uring02 regression test for unsafe handling of the root directory aka CVE-2020-29373
-
Increased coverage
- tmpfs was added for tests that loop over filesystems supported by the SUT
- fanotify05 added more queue overflow tests and test for unlimited queue
-
52 tests were rewritten to the new library
-
with that we reached important milestone where new library testcases
outnumber the old library tests for the first time ever -
Converted tests:
- chdir01
- chmod05
- chown01, chown02, chown03
- close01, close02

- CAN tests were cleaned up and converted to the new library
-
-
Integrity Measurement Architecture (IMA)
- new SELinux measurement tests
- fixes
-
Added new library for managing network interfaces over netlink
-
Added new library for cgroup discovery and management
- this is a big leap forward for cgroup testing
- greatly simplifies testscases as the library gracefully handles v1/v2
split configurations that are unfortunatelly still common on recent systems - first few tests were converted to use the library
- more tests are in the queue
-
Fixed timeouts in shell test library
- ensure that all child processes are killed on timeout as well
- runs a cleanup after timeout
-
The fuzzy sync library was fixed to yield() on single CPU systems
- which fixed test timeouts on single CPU systems
- self tests for the library where implemented where we check that races we
crafted into the code are triggered correctly by the library even on single
CPU systems
-
Fixed kernel module detection on BusyBox
-
Open Posix Testsuite now use $TMPDIR instead of previously hardcoded /tmp
-
LTP should now produce reproducible build after a few fixes to the buildsystem and libs
-
The documentation generated from the test sources was improved, you can check
out the generated documentation pages for this release at:http://linux-test-project.github.io/metadata/metadata.asciidoctor.html
Also have a look at a few nice test documentation examples:
http://linux-test-project.github.io/metadata/metadata.asciidoctor.html#acct02
http://linux-test-project.github.io/metadata/metadata.asciidoctor.html#bpf_prog05
http://linux-test-project.github.io/metadata/metadata.asciidoctor.html#semctl09 -
We also wrote down a document about the oldest supported kernel and libc, see:
https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/wiki/Supported-kernel,-libc,-toolchain-versions
- The usual amount of fixes and cleanups

possible, which speeds up loop device based tests quite a bit -

- The usual amount of fixes and cleanups.
NOTABLE CHANGES IN NETWORK TESTS
brought to you by Petr Vorel
-
remove RSH support (for legacy tests use SSH by default in $LTP_RSH)
-
removed rsh, rcp, rlogin tests
-
NFS: detect disabled UDP, expect it being disabled on v5.6+
(NFS_DISABLE_UDP_SUPPORT is default y) -
TST_NET_RHOST_RUN_DEBUG=1 enables debugging
- various fixes and updated docs

METADATA EXTRACTION & TEST CATALOGUE
There is an ongoing experiment that attempts to extract metadata from the
testcases, we also have a proof of concept web page that renders the json
metadata into a browseable test documentation. There is not much there yet,
but we are hoping, among other things, to build a nice, searchable and
browseable test catalogue based on these efforts.

TODO LIST AND ISSUE TRACKER
As noted in the previous release we started to maintain a LTP TODO list in the
form GitHub issues, as expected the list is growing:
But more importantly we are starting to implement testcases based on that list,
recently we added the fsetxattr, fgetxattr, mlock2, prctl, and statx tests and
more is about to come in the near future.
We do have also list of reproducers to be turned into testcases:
Lastly but not least I would like to ask everyone to contribute to these lists.
If you have a reproducer or notice missing coverage do not hesitate to open an
issue.
