<id>urn:sha1:e6fbd1759c9ece5044d3470f30a5e2166dc9de89</id>
<content type='text'>
This follow-up patch completes centralization of kselftest.h and
ksefltest_harness.h includes in remaining seltests files, replacing all
relative paths with a non-relative paths using shared -I include path in
lib.mk

Tested with gcc-13.3 and clang-18.1, and cross-compiled successfully on
riscv, arm64, x86_64 and powerpc arch.

Add a dependency on header helpers.h to the main target; while at that add
to helpers.h also a missing include for bool types.

In E_func() macro, on error, print also errno in order to aid debugging.

<title>selftests: add openat2(2) selftests</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://universe.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel/commit/?id=b28a10aedcd4d175470171a32f4f20b0a60a612b'/>
<id>urn:sha1:b28a10aedcd4d175470171a32f4f20b0a60a612b</id>
<content type='text'>
Test all of the various openat2(2) flags. A small stress-test of a
symlink-rename attack is included to show that the protections against
".."-based attacks are sufficient.

The main things these self-tests are enforcing are:

  * The struct+usize ABI for openat2(2) and copy_struct_from_user() to
    ensure that upgrades will be handled gracefully (in addition,
    ensuring that misaligned structures are also handled correctly).

  * The -EINVAL checks for openat2(2) are all correctly handled to avoid
    userspace passing unknown or conflicting flag sets (most
    importantly, ensuring that invalid flag combinations are checked).

  * All of the RESOLVE_* semantics (including errno values) are
    correctly handled with various combinations of paths and flags.

  * RESOLVE_IN_ROOT correctly protects against the symlink rename(2)
    attack that has been responsible for several CVEs (and likely will
    be responsible for several more).
