Subject: [PATCH] selftests/filesystems: expect EINVAL from overlayfs in fscontext_ns_test
Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2026 20:00:44 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260929010044.5297-1-danishkhateeb03@gmail.com> (raw)
Since commit a518e63c3775 ("ovl: return EINVAL instead of EIO in case of
mismatched user_ns"), overlayfs refuses a context created in another
user namespace with EINVAL, like binfmt_misc does. The test still
expects EIO, so it fails:
# fscontext_ns_test.c:208:create_from_descendant_userns:Expected variant->expected_errno (5) == errno (22)
# FAIL fscontext_ns.overlay.create_from_descendant_userns
Expect EINVAL.
Fixes: a518e63c3775 ("ovl: return EINVAL instead of EIO in case of mismatched user_ns")

Notes:
Tested on next-20260925 in QEMU: fails as above without this patch, and
all 3 tests pass with it.
