Martin KaFai Lau b7ea631b9a Merge branch 'selftests/bpf: convert test_dev_cgroup to test_progs'
Alexis Lothoré (eBPF Foundation) says:

====================
Hello,
this small series aims to integrate test_dev_cgroup in test_progs so it
could be run automatically in CI. The new version brings a few differences
with the current one:
- test now uses directly syscalls instead of wrapping commandline tools
  into system() calls
- test_progs manipulates /dev/null (eg: redirecting test logs into it), so
  disabling access to it in the bpf program confuses the tests. To fix this,
  the first commit modifies the bpf program to allow access to char devices
  1:3 (/dev/null), and disable access to char devices 1:5 (/dev/zero)
- once test is converted, add a small subtest to also check for device type
  interpretation (char or block)
- paths used in mknod tests are now in /dev instead of /tmp: due to the CI
  runner organisation and mountpoints manipulations, trying to create nodes
  in /tmp leads to errors unrelated to the test (ie, mknod calls refused by
  kernel, not the bpf program). I don't understand exactly the root cause
  at the deepest point (all I see in CI is an -ENXIO error on mknod when trying to
  create the node in tmp, and I can not make sense out of it neither
  replicate it locally), so I would gladly take inputs from anyone more
  educated than me about this.

The new test_progs part has been tested in a local qemu environment as well
as in upstream CI:

  ./test_progs -a cgroup_dev
  47/1    cgroup_dev/allow-mknod:OK
  47/2    cgroup_dev/allow-read:OK
  47/3    cgroup_dev/allow-write:OK
  47/4    cgroup_dev/deny-mknod:OK
  47/5    cgroup_dev/deny-read:OK
  47/6    cgroup_dev/deny-write:OK
  47/7    cgroup_dev/deny-mknod-wrong-type:OK
  47      cgroup_dev:OK
  Summary: 1/7 PASSED, 0 SKIPPED, 0 FAILED

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.
