Description

This testcase checks whether kpartx will crash when called with invalid options. It is reported in fixed bug that when kpartx was passes something other than a file or a block device or a badly formed pathname, it could read off the end of the device string, and crash. The test steps include:1)install device-mapper device-mapper-multipath 2)restart multipathd service 3)kpartx -l / 4)check dmesg if there is segmentation fault


How to test

  1. Ensure the device-mapper-multipath package is installed
  Execute:dnf -y install device-mapper device-mapper-multipath
  Execute:rpm -qa 
  1. Execute the following command to generate the configuration file:
  Execute:mpathconf --enable
  1. Restart multipathd service

Execute:service multipathd restart

4.kpartx called with invalid options / Execute:kpartx -l /

5.sleep 1 second Execute:sleep 1

6.check dmesg if there is segmentation fault Execute:dmesg

Expected Results

  1. no Segmentation fault, kpartx no longer crashes when called with invalid options.
