[PATCH 3/3] selftests: cachestat: test for cachestat availability

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As cachestat is a new syscall, it won't be available on older kernels,
for instance those running on a build machine. In this case, a run
reports all tests as "not ok" at the moment.

Test for the cachestat syscall availability first, before doing further
tests, and bail out early with a TAP SKIP comment.

This also uses the opportunity to add the proper TAP headers, and add
one check for the syscall error handling (illegal file descriptor).
