Hi Cyril,
It is reasonable for me to foucs on new kernel(4.3 and newer).
I will send v2 patch soon. :-)
BTW:
Sorry, I misread the meaning of 'tst_kvcmp -lt "3.0 RHEL6:2.6.32"'.
It means that writing '0-' also get -EINVAL on very old
kernel(3.0/RHEL6:2.6.32 and older),
so I think there is another old commit to change the behavior as well.
Thanks,
Xiao Yang
