They +run as root and have access to the following environment: + +* `$DEV`, `$DEV_ROOT`: ext4 filesystem images with encryption enabled + +* `$MNT`, `$MNT_ROOT`: the mountpoints of the above filesystems. + Initially all filesystems are mounted and are setup for fscrypt. + Login protectors will be stored on `$MNT_ROOT`. + +* `$TMPDIR`: a temporary directory that the test may use + +* `$FSCRYPT_CONF`: location of the fscrypt.conf file. Initially this + file exists and specifies to use v2 policies with the default + settings, except password hashing is configured to be extra fast. + +* `$TEST_USER`: a non-root user that the test may use. Their password + is `TEST_USER_PASS`. + +Any output (stdout and stderr) the test prints is compared to the +corresponding `.out` file. If a difference is detected then the test +is considered to have failed. The output is first sent through some +standard filters; see `run.sh`. + +The test is also failed if it exits with nonzero status. + +See `common.sh` for utility functions the tests may use. |
