| Cyril Hrubis | 69c5232 | 2016-02-17 11:16:39 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 8 | Syscalls and new syscall flags are added to Linux kernel each development cycle |
| 9 | and LTP still falls behind. Unfortunately there is no single place that would |
| 10 | store comprehensive list of syscalls, but there are a few places to look at: |

| Cyril Hrubis | 69c5232 | 2016-02-17 11:16:39 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 12 | One of the options would be looking at changes in man-pages git[1] in man2/ |
| 13 | directory to find out newly documented functionality. |

| Cyril Hrubis | 69c5232 | 2016-02-17 11:16:39 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 15 | Another good source of information are kernel pages in LWN[2] weekly |
| 16 | editions. |

| Cyril Hrubis | 69c5232 | 2016-02-17 11:16:39 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 18 | Then there is linux-api mailing list[3] where changes in kernel userspace API |
| 19 | should be discussed. |

| Cyril Hrubis | 69c5232 | 2016-02-17 11:16:39 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 29 | We already started working on this with rewriting cgroup_fj testcases and |
| 30 | newly added pids testcases. Have a look at testcases/kernel/controllers/. |

| Cyril Hrubis | 69c5232 | 2016-02-17 11:16:39 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 36 | There are numerous testcases written in shell that does not follow single style |
| 37 | and use the broken-by-design binaries from tools/apicmds. These should be |
| 38 | cleaned up and fixed to use the test.sh test library. These include most of |
| 39 | tests in testcases/commands/ for example. |
