[LTP] [PATCH v8 1/5] sched_setattr01: Convert to new API

Andrea Cervesato andrea.cervesato@suse.de
Fri Sep 4 09:41:19 CEST 2026


From: Andrea Cervesato <andrea.cervesato@suse.com>

Rewrite the test to use the modern LTP API (tst_test.h) with a
struct tcase array and TST_EXP_* macros.

- /* Description:
- *   Verify that:
- *              1) sched_setattr succeed with correct parameters
- *              2) sched_setattr fails with unused pid
- *              3) sched_setattr fails with invalid address
- *              4) sched_setattr fails with invalid flag
+
+/*\
+ * Verify that :manpage:`sched_setattr(2)`:
+ *
+ * - succeeds with correct parameters and attributes are verified via
+ *   :manpage:`sched_getattr(2)`
+ * - fails with ESRCH when pid is unused
+ * - fails with EINVAL when pid is negative
+ * - fails with EINVAL when sched_attr address is NULL
+ * - fails with EFAULT when sched_attr address is invalid
+ * - fails with E2BIG when sched_attr size is smaller than version 0
+ * - fails with EINVAL when flags are invalid
+ * - fails with EINVAL when sched_policy is invalid
+ * - fails with EINVAL when runtime exceeds deadline
+ *
+ * Root is required (:c:macro:`CAP_SYS_NICE`) to configure and validate the
+ * :c:macro:`SCHED_DEADLINE` policy.
+ *
+ * The test relies on the LTP harness process isolation and resets the
+ * scheduling policy to :c:macro:`SCHED_OTHER` after testing to prevent
+ * :c:macro:`SCHED_DEADLINE` constraints from leaking into subsequent
+ * test cases or iterations.
