[PATCH 2/3] sysctl: Add a selftest for handling empty dirs

From: Joel Granados via B4 Relay
Date: Tue Nov 21 2023 - 06:02:59 EST


From: Joel Granados <j.granados@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Basic test to ensure that empty directories can be registered and that
they in turn can serve as a base dir for other registrations.

Add one test to the sysctl selftest module. It first registers an empty
directory under "empty_add" and then uses that as a base to register
another empty dir.
The sysctl bash script then checks that "empty_add" is present and that
there an empty directory within it.
