LTP syscalls failed test cases on all devices arm64, arm32 and x86_64, - creat08 - open10
Reported this bug internally on upstream Linux mainline week back. Now this bug happening on 4.17, 4.14, 4.9 and 4.4
creat08 and open10 failed with this error, TFAIL : testdir.B.3132/setgid: Incorrect modes, setgid bit should be set
Test case description: /* * NAME * creat08.c - Verifies that the group ID and setgid bit are * set correctly when a new file is created. * (ported from SPIE, section2/iosuite/creat5.c, * by Airong Zhang zhanga@us.ibm.com) * CALLS * creat * * ALGORITHM * Create two directories, one with the group ID of this process * and the setgid bit not set, and the other with a group ID * other than that of this process and with the setgid bit set. * In each directory, create a file with and without the setgid * bit set in the creation modes. Verify that the modes and group * ID are correct on each of the 4 files. * As root, create a file with the setgid bit on in the * directory with the setgid bit. * This tests the SVID3 create group semantics. */
