sysctl: Nixify sysctl.sh

2025-07-23T09:56:02+00:00

Use "#!/usr/bin/env bash" instead of "#!/bin/bash". Needed for testing in nix environments as they only provide /usr/bin/env at the standard location. Signed-off-by: Joel Granados

sysctl: Add 0012 to test the u8 range check

2025-04-14T12:13:41+00:00

Add a sysctl test that uses the new u8 test ctl files in a created by the sysctl test module. Check that the u8 proc file that is valid is created and that there are two messages in dmesg for the files that were out of range. Reviewed-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Joel Granados

sysclt: Clarify the results of selftest run

2023-12-28T12:57:57+00:00

In some cases the result of test were hidden inside the stdout and it was difficult to identify when a test was skipped and why. List of changes 1. Capitalize all the words that express a test result : "OK", "SKIPPED" and "FAIL". 2. Place all test result text at the end of the message. This will prevent the result from being hidden when stdout is verbose. 3. Any other explanation that comes after the result text will be placed in a new line. 4. All failures are marked as "FAIL" 5. Pipped the failure to stderr in tests 8, 9, 10. 6. Replaced bogus "FAIL" with "SKIPPED" in test 0007 7. All "..." are prefixed and followed by a space.

sysctl: Add a selftest for handling empty dirs

2023-12-28T12:57:57+00:00

Basic test to ensure that empty directories can be registered and that they in turn can serve as a base dir for other registrations. Add one test to the sysctl selftest module. It first registers an empty directory under "empty_add" and then uses that as a base to register another empty dir. The sysctl bash script then checks that "empty_add" is present and that there an empty directory within it. Signed-off-by: Joel Granados Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain

test_sysclt: Test for registering a mount point

2023-06-18T09:32:54+00:00

Test that target gets created by register_sysctl_mount_point and that no additional target can be created "on top" of a permanently empty sysctl table. Create a mount point target (mnt) in the sysctl test driver; try to create another on top of that (mnt_error). Output an error if "mnt_error" is present when we run the sysctl selftests.

test_sysctl: Add an option to prevent test skip

2023-06-18T09:32:54+00:00

Tests were being skipped because the target was not present. Add a flag that controls whether to skip a test based on the presence of the target. Actually skip tests in the test_case function with a "return" instead of a "continue". Signed-off-by: Joel Granados Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain

test_sysctl: Add an unregister sysctl test

2023-06-18T09:32:54+00:00

Add a test that checks that the unregistered directory is removed from /proc/sys/debug Signed-off-by: Joel Granados Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain

test_sysctl: Fix test metadata getters

2023-06-18T09:32:53+00:00

The functions get_test_{count,enabled,target} use awk to get the N'th field in the ALL_TESTS variable. A variable with leading zeros (e.g. 0009) is misinterpreted as an entire line instead of the N'th field. Remove the leading zeros so this does not happen. We can now use the helper in tests 6, 7 and 8. Signed-off-by: Joel Granados Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain
