Namhyung Kim 347e0e46b1 ftracetest: Use logfile name supported by busybox's mktemp
When I run the ftracetest in a busybox docker container, I saw
following error.  Make the logfile template to comply with busybox's
mktemp.  It also keep the logfiles under the logs directory.

  # /linux/tools/testing/selftests/ftrace/ftracetest
  === Ftrace unit tests ===
  mktemp: unrecognized option `--tmpdir=/linux/tools/testing/selftests/ftrace/logs/20141106-003624/'
  BusyBox v1.22.1 (2014-05-22 23:22:11 UTC) multi-call binary.

  Usage: mktemp [-dt] [-p DIR] [TEMPLATE]

  Create a temporary file with name based on TEMPLATE and print its name.
  TEMPLATE must end with XXXXXX (e.g. [/dir/]nameXXXXXX).
  Without TEMPLATE, -t tmp.XXXXXX is assumed.

  	-d	  Make directory, not file
  	-q	  Fail silently on errors
  	-t	  Prepend base directory name to TEMPLATE
  	-p DIR	  Use DIR as a base directory (implies -t)
  	-u Do not create anything; print a name

  Base directory is: -p DIR, else $TMPDIR, else /tmp

  [1] Basic trace file check/linux/tools/testing/selftests/ftrace/ftracetest: line 244: can't create : nonexistent directory
  /linux/tools/testing/selftests/ftrace/ftracetest: line 244: can't create : nonexistent directory
						  [FAIL]

Linux Kernel Selftests

The kernel contains a set of "self tests" under the tools/testing/selftests/
directory. These are intended to be small unit tests to exercise individual
code paths in the kernel.

On some systems, hot-plug tests could hang forever waiting for cpu and
memory to be ready to be offlined. A special hot-plug target is created
to run full range of hot-plug tests. In default mode, hot-plug tests run
in safe mode with a limited scope. In limited mode, cpu-hotplug test is
run on a single cpu as opposed to all hotplug capable cpus, and memory
hotplug test is run on 2% of hotplug capable memory instead of 10%.

Running the selftests (hotplug tests are run in limited mode)
=============================================================

To build the tests:

  $ make -C tools/testing/selftests


To run the tests:

  $ make -C tools/testing/selftests run_tests

- note that some tests will require root privileges.

To run only tests targeted for a single subsystem: (including
hotplug targets in limited mode)

  $  make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=cpu-hotplug run_tests

See the top-level tools/testing/selftests/Makefile for the list of all possible
targets.

Running the full range hotplug selftests
========================================

To build the tests:

  $ make -C tools/testing/selftests hotplug

To run the tests:

  $ make -C tools/testing/selftests run_hotplug

- note that some tests will require root privileges.

Contributing new tests
======================

In general, the rules for for selftests are

 * Do as much as you can if you're not root;

 * Don't take too long;

 * Don't break the build on any architecture, and

 * Don't cause the top-level "make run_tests" to fail if your feature is
   unconfigured.
