[PATCH 2/2] selftests/harness: Merge TEST_F_FORK() into TEST_F()

From: Mickaël Salaün
Date: Mon Feb 26 2024 - 11:24:48 EST


Remplace Landlock-specific TEST_F_FORK() with an improved TEST_F() which
brings four related changes:

Run TEST_F()'s tests in a grandchild process to make it possible to
drop privileges and delegate teardown to the parent.

Compared to TEST_F_FORK(), simplify handling of the test grandchild
process thanks to vfork(2), and makes it generic (e.g. no explicit
conversion between exit code and _metadata).

Compared to TEST_F_FORK(), run teardown even when tests failed with an
assert thanks to commit 63e6b2a42342 ("selftests/harness: Run TEARDOWN
for ASSERT failures").

Simplify the test harness code by removing the no_print and step fields
which are not used. I added this feature just after I made
kselftest_harness.h more broadly available but this step counter
remained even though it wasn't needed after all. See commit 369130b63178
("selftests: Enhance kselftest_harness.h to print which assert failed").

Replace spaces with tabs in one line of __TEST_F_IMPL().
