[LTP] move_pages test failed in ltp-2009-11-19.tar.gz

[Mitani <mi...@ry...>]

Hi,

When I ran LTP in RHEL5.4 using ltp-2009-11-19.tar.gz, 
"move_pages03" and "move_pages11" were failed in each of "syscalls" and 
"numa" tests like that:

------------
move_pages01    1  TCONF  :  NUMA support not provided
move_pages02    1  TCONF  :  NUMA support not provided
chown: cannot access `move_pages03': No such file or directory
move_pages04    1  TCONF  :  NUMA support not provided
move_pages05    1  TCONF  :  NUMA support not provided
move_pages06    1  TCONF  :  NUMA support not provided
move_pages07    1  TCONF  :  NUMA support not provided
move_pages08    1  TCONF  :  NUMA support not provided
move_pages09    1  TCONF  :  NUMA support not provided
move_pages10    1  TCONF  :  NUMA support not provided
chown: cannot access `move_pages11': No such file or directory
------------


These fails didn't occured with ltp-full-20090930.tgz, but they occured
with ltp-full-20091031.tgz.
With ltp-full-20090930.tgz, all of move_pagesXX (XX:01-11) were passed
(NUMA support not provided) in my system.


I compared these version and found out following scenarios changed.
  - ${LTPROOT}/runtest/numa
  - ${LTPROOT}/runtest/syscalls


These scenarios are as follows, and "move_pages03" and "move_pages01" 
are revised.

------------
# cat ./runtest/numa
Numa-testcases numa01.sh
move_pages01 move_pages.sh 01
move_pages02 move_pages.sh 02
move_pages03 cd $LTPROOT/bin && chown root move_pages03 && chmod 04755 &&
move_pages.sh 03
move_pages04 move_pages.sh 04
move_pages05 move_pages.sh 05
move_pages06 move_pages.sh 06
move_pages07 move_pages.sh 07
move_pages08 move_pages.sh 08
move_pages09 move_pages.sh 09
move_pages10 move_pages.sh 10
move_pages11 cd $LTPROOT/bin && chown root move_pages11 && chmod 04755 &&
move_pages.sh 11
# cat ./runtest/syscalls | grep move_page
move_pages01 move_pages.sh 01
move_pages02 move_pages.sh 02
move_pages03 cd $LTPROOT/bin && chown root move_pages03 && chmod 04755 &&
move_pages.sh 03
move_pages04 move_pages.sh 04
move_pages05 move_pages.sh 05
move_pages06 move_pages.sh 06
move_pages07 move_pages.sh 07
move_pages08 move_pages.sh 08
move_pages09 move_pages.sh 09
move_pages10 move_pages.sh 10
move_pages11 cd $LTPROOT/bin && chown root move_pages11 && chmod 04755 &&
move_pages.sh 11
#------------


I think there are two problems in each changes:

  - "move_pagesXX" files are in "$LTPROOT/testcases/bin" direcotory, 
    not in "$LTPROOT/bin" directory.
  - "chmod" commands don't have target file.


I don't know why these revisions are done. But if these revisions should 
be validated, they will come to work in the change like following, I think.
I wish I can get opinion whether my revision is right or not.

In addition, please teach why this revision was performed, if all right.
  - Why do only "move_pages03" and "move_pages11" appoint another directory
    not a current directory?
  - Why "chmod" is needed?



Thank you--
