[LTP] [PATCH v4] Port getxattr02.c to new test API

Hi Marius,

Please, could you remove HAVE_SYS_XATTR_H check and TST_TEST_TCONF() ?
<sys/xattr.h> has been around for a long time?

I'll send a patch which does it on other files and from configure.

> * Utilize `all_filesystems = 1`-mechanism to test on various file
>   systems instead of relying on the temporary directory's file system
>   to support xattr (which it probably does not as it is commonly a
>   tmpfs)
> * Improve error handling
> * Simplify code and description

Maybe, instead of this comments, could you add
char *desc to struct test_case and,, instead of this comment, specify below:

     .desc = "get attr from fifo"

tmpfs got xattrs support in kernel 6.6
https://kernelnewbies.org/LinuxChanges#Linux_6.6.TMPFS
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=2daf18a7884dc03d5164ab9c7dc3f2ea70638469
And test works on 6.7.0-rc3-3.ge7296f9-default (openSUSE):

LTP_SINGLE_FS_TYPE=tmpfs ./getxattr02
...
tst_test.c:1650: TINFO: === Testing on tmpfs ===
tst_test.c:1105: TINFO: Skipping mkfs for TMPFS filesystem
tst_test.c:1086: TINFO: Limiting tmpfs size to 32MB
tst_test.c:1119: TINFO: Mounting ltp-tmpfs to /tmp/LTP_get5FL6hO/mntpoint fstyp=tmpfs flags=0
getxattr02.c:80: TPASS: expected return value: ENODATA (61)
getxattr02.c:80: TPASS: expected return value: ENODATA (61)
getxattr02.c:80: TPASS: expected return value: ENODATA (61)
getxattr02.c:80: TPASS: expected return value: ENODATA (61)

And it TCONF on older kernels
getxattr02.c:90: TCONF: no xattr support in fs, mounted without user_xattr option or invalid namespace/name format
=> we should skip tmpfs.

vfat, exfat also detect correctly xattr. I don't know if they can even get
support (there might be a technical limitation of the format of their metadata),
but I would still keep them in the list. But maybe others will see it
differently.
