[LTP] [PATCH v2] syscalls/nice01: Add test nice(-1) and nice(-50)

Tue Nov 29 09:13:04 CET 2022


1. Add test verify that the errno is zero when callling of nice
legitimately return -1.(nice(-1), the default nice is usally 0)
2. Add test verify that user of root can decrease the nice value of
the process successfully by passing a lower increment
value (< min. applicable limits) to nice() system call.(nice(-50))
