Compiling xs-test.c on Ubuntu 21.04 fails with:

xs-test.c: In function ‘main’:
xs-test.c:486:5: error: ignoring return value of ‘asprintf’ declared with attribute ‘warn_unused_result’ [-Werror=unused-result]
  486 |     asprintf(&path, "%s/%u", TEST_PATH, getpid());
      |     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Check the asprintf return and exit if it failed.

Using exit(2) since it is used for the xs_open failure.

Thanks.  However, your patch doesn't apply to staging; the files have
been reorganised AFAICT.  Also, I think

  93c9edbef51b31056f93a37a778326c90a83158c
  tests/xenstore: Rework Makefile

fixed this (with slightly different style, and despite not mentioning
this change in the commit message)

Yes, that looks like it fixed it.

Sorry, I was working off a stale branch, so I didn't realize this was fixed.

?  Literally half of the commit message pertains to this failure.

Sorry, I meant the title, which talks only about Makefile stuff.
