      runtest file

  • The test library now supports specifying mkfs and mount options per a
    filesystem

  • Bunch of checks for kernels older than 4.4 were removed from the tests since
    the currently minimal kernel version LTP supports is 4.4

  • We have a new shell test library that:

    • makes shell code seamlessly interoperable with C
    • reuses most of the C test library
    • makes use shared memory to report test results
    • there are currently no tests using this library, we will start rewriting
      existing tests after the release

  • 3 testcases were converted to the new test library

  • The usual amount of fixes and cleanups

REMOVED SCRIPTS AND FILES

  • Removed ltpmenu an legacy script that was unmaintained for a decade.
