[Devel] [PATCH hci-8.1 v6 0/2] selftests: ve: fix ve_perms, introduce vtty_stress

[Eva Kurchatova <eva.kurchatova@virtuozzo.com>]

Patchset for tasks:
https://virtuozzo.atlassian.net/browse/VSTOR-144955
https://virtuozzo.atlassian.net/browse/VSTOR-144771

Should be merged in this order, since without the ve fix, the testsuite
will not pass at all.
Changes in v6:

2/2:
- Ask the kernel whether the veid is taken before writing ve.veid, and
  skip when it is, instead of assuming the 108..200 range is free.
- Skip when the slave node lands on a nodev mount, where mknod()
  succeeds and every open fails with EACCES.
- kmsg_check() still fails on any WARNING, BUG or Oops record, as the
  v2 review asked: the node runs nothing else during the test.

Changes in v5:

2/2:
- Rebased.
- Drop the vendored uapi structure definition.
- Use newly introduced VE test helpers instead of hand-rolled ones.
- Check subtree_control write, skip if needed.
- Report child exit status alongside "The VE side never came up".

Link to v4: http://lore.virtuozzo.com/kernel/5fc7cab9-c486-4568-8034-693d756b1050@virtuozzo.com/T/#t

Changes in v4:

1/2:
- Check the snprintf() in set_entry() against sizeof() and give the
  buffer PATH_MAX, similar to how ve_open_rel() already operates.
- Correct comments.
- Fix the Feature tag.

2/2:
- Move the double release_tty() history out of the file header into
  the message. The header keeps what the test does, how it reaches
  both ends, and the usage line.
- Match "general protection fault" records as well, they carry no
  "Oops:" prefix.
- Reason about the test reproduction time in the commit message.
- Document that the test assumes its veid is not in use by a
  running container in the commit message.
- Default to 30 seconds and drop the settings file, the run now fits
  the timeout the suite already has.

Link to v3: https://lists.openvz.org/pipermail/devel/2026-September/085277.html

Changes in v3:

1/2:
- Code unchanged from v2. Only the test count and the sentence about
  the proc variant were dropped from the message; the rest of the v2
  review is addressed in v4.

2/2:
- Corrections in commit message and comments.
- Bail out on the first open errno that is not EBUSY, EIO or ENXIO,
  on both ends, and report it, instead of spinning erroneously.
- Match /dev/kmsg one record at a time.
- Keep reading /dev/kmsg after EPIPE instead of stopping on it.
- Put the slave node under a private mkdtemp() directory instead of a
  fixed name in /tmp.
- Kill the slave side when the master side gives up, with
  PR_SET_PDEATHSIG as the backstop, so it does not hold the cgroup
  open against destroy_ve().
- Call destroy_ve() on the one exit path that skipped it.
- Default to 60 seconds, from 600.

Link to v2: https://lists.openvz.org/pipermail/devel/2026-September/085125.html

Changes in v2:

1/2:
- Add the Fixes: tag, the code is unchanged.

2/2:
- Add the binary to .gitignore.
- Formatting: single spaces, one initialiser per line.
