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.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
