As we discussed from the last time LTP syscalls epoll_ctl04 is a known issue on the Linus master and Linux next.
* ltp-syscalls - epoll_ctl04
Reported-by: Linux Kernel Functional Testing lkft@linaro.org
1) The bisection results pointing to
First bad commit, eventpoll: Fix semi-unbounded recursion commit f2e467a48287c868818085aa35389a224d226732 upstream.
2) A patch has been proposed to update the LTP test case to align with recent changes in the Linux kernel code.
