I think I got the point.

In your test code for pipe2(), you didn't use pipe in the correct way. Even
that we define the fds[2] as a global variable, there still have a new copy
for fds[2] in the child process, we should close one of the pipes in child
and parent to make the connection is built correspondingly, then that will
work normally for us.

I suggest redesigning some of the test structs. What do you think?
