NetBSD has long had support for
running Linux binaries via its kernel-level compat_linux
feature, but test coverage for it was less complete than some might
hope. In order to provide better testing for compat_linux,
Google Summer of Code (GSoC) participant Henrique Brito opted to work
on enabling the Linux Test
Project (LTP) test suite to compile and run on NetBSD. At EuroBSDCon 2026, Brito's
mentor, Stephen Borrill, provided a report on the project, and the
status of LTP on NetBSD. The work has already resulted in some minor
fixes, and a good list of additional problems to solve.
