Commit Message

John Hubbard Oct. 2, 2020, 6:48 a.m. UTC
commit 30fb9454ab23 ("selftests/vm: hmm-tests: remove the libhugetlbfs
dependency") created the new check_config.sh file without the execute
bits set. This is a problem because the Makefile runs it with "./", so
now "make" is failing in that directory.

The posted patch [1] does seem to have it as an executable file, so I'm
not sure how this happened. But in any case, make check_config.sh
executable again, so that "make" in selftests/vm works once again.

Hi,

This applies to today's 20201001) linux-next. I forgot if this needs to
be a separate patch or if it can be fixed up in Andrew's tree.

thanks,

hmm, in fact I think something similar also happened to run_vmtest.sh, in the same
directory. Please let me know if a patch is needed there, or if you can just fix
up this one or the tree or something?

The correct fix is to make sure that the Makefile runs it explicitly
with a shell because is such a patch is applied with patch(1), the
execute bit will not be preserved.

See e.g. in the top level Makefile:

	$(CONFIG_SHELL) $(srctree)/scripts/gen_autoksyms.sh $@

OK...we should also fix it anyway, seeing as how the run_vmtest.sh also needs
the execute bit re-set, yes?

So I guess I should send a patch that does:

* chmod +x on both run_vmtest.sh and check_config.sh, plus

* invoke check_config.sh via $(CONFIG_SHELL) from the Makefile.

Does that sound about right?

thanks,

...and I should add that I'm stuck in a non-Kbuild system, here. So
$(CONFIG_SHELL) is not available, sigh.
