2009-12-08maint: remove an erroneous commentPádraig Brady
* tests/misc/timeout: Remove an erroneous comment introduced through copy and paste.
2009-12-08timeout: fix failure if timeout's parent has ignored SIGCHLDPádraig Brady
* src/timeout.c (main): Reset the SIGCHLD handler to the default as otherwise wait() could return -1 and set errno to ECHILD. This condition was ignored until commit 0b1dcf33, on 31-08-2009, "timeout: defensive handling of all wait() errors" but subsequently timeout would run the command correctly but then fail with an error message. * tests/misc/timeout: In a subshell set the CHLD handler to SIG_IGN to ensure the timeout command resets it to SIG_DFL. * NEWS: Mention the fix.
2009-10-30tests: factor 350 fail=0 initializations into test-lib.shJim Meyering
Run this command to remove the factored-out "fail=0" lines. perl -ni -e '/^fail=0$/ or print' $(g grep -l '^fail=0$') * tests/test-lib.sh: Initialize fail=0 here, not in 300+ scripts. * tests/...: nearly all bourne shell scripts Suggested by Eric Blake.
2009-10-23tests: enhance stdbuf and timeout testsEric Blake
* tests/misc/timeout-parameters: Validate exact exit status. * tests/misc/stdbuf: Likewise. * tests/misc/timeout: Likewise. Use require_built_. * tests/misc/arch: Likewise.

2008-09-10tests: use "Exit $fail", not (exit $fail); exit $failJim Meyering
* tests/test-lib.sh (Exit): New function by Ralf Wildenhues in automake http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=automake.git;a=commitdiff;h=20594c08f63 * tests/**: Convert all uses: This restrictive change converted the vast majority: git grep -l '^(exit \$fail); exit \$fail$' \ | xargs perl -pi -e 's/'^\(exit \$fail\); exit \$fail$/Exit \$fail/' And this did the rest, plus a few undesirable ones, so I manually backed out the changes to ChangeLog-* and build-aux/check.mk: git grep -l -E '\(exit [^)]+\); exit ' \ | xargs perl -pi -e 's/\(exit (.+?)\); exit \1/Exit $1/'
