Hi Alexey,
When lkp team run kernel selftests, we found after these series of patches, testcase mqueue: mq_perf_tests in kselftest failed with following message.
Which kernel was this run against?
Where can the mq_perf_tests that you ran and had problems with be found?
During your run were you using user namespaces as part of your test environment?
The error message too many files corresponds to the error code EMFILES which is the error code that is returned when the rlimit is reached.
One possibility is that your test environment was run in a user namespace and so you wound up limited by rlimit of the user who created the user namespace at the point of user namespace creation.
At this point if you can give us enough information to look into this and attempt to reproduce it that would be appreciated.
I was able to reproduce it on master without using user namespace. I suspect that the maximum value is not assigned here [1]:
set_rlimit_ucount_max(&init_user_ns, UCOUNT_RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE, task_rlimit(&init_task, RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE));

If you confirm and fix the issue, kindly add following tag as appropriate Reported-by: kernel test robot lkp@intel.com
