Linux kernel source tree
6a75f19af1
The sysctl tests for vm.memfd_noexec rely on the kernel to support PID
namespaces (i.e. the kernel is built with CONFIG_PID_NS=y). If the
kernel the test runs on does not support PID namespaces, the first sysctl
test will fail when attempting to spawn a new thread in a new PID
namespace, abort the test, preventing the remaining tests from being run.
This is not desirable, as not all kernels need PID namespaces, but can
still use the other features provided by memfd. Therefore, only run the
sysctl tests if the kernel supports PID namespaces. Otherwise, skip those
tests and emit an informative message to let the user know why the sysctl
tests are not being run.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
