    selftests/exec: include cwd in long path calculation · 2d80c92d
    Steve Muckle authored
    When creating a pathname close to PATH_MAX to test execveat, factor in
    the current working directory path otherwise we end up with an absolute
    path that is longer than PATH_MAX. While execveat() may succeed, subsequent
    calls to the kernel from the runtime environment which are required to
    successfully execute the test binary/script may fail because of this.
    
    To keep the semantics of the test the same, rework the relative pathname
    part of the test to be relative to the root directory so it isn't
    decreased by the length of the current working directory path.
