2012-08-30tests: add .sh and .pl suffixes to shell and perl tests, respectivelyStefano Lattarini
Not only this shrinks the size of the generated Makefile (from > 6300 lines to ~3000), but will allow further simplifications in future changes. * tests/Makefile.am (TEST_EXTENSIONS): Add '.sh' and '.pl'. (PL_LOG_COMPILER, SH_LOG_COMPILER): New, still defined simply to $(LOG_COMPILER) for the time being. (TESTS, root_tests): Adjust as described. * All tests: Rename as described.
2012-01-09tests: change `...' to '...' on lines not matching /[=\$]/Jim Meyering
Exempt lines with '$' or '=', since those are prone to improper conversion. Run this: git grep -l "\`[^']*'" tests \ |xargs perl -pi -e '/[=\$]/ and next;s/\`([^'\''"]*?'\'')/'\''$1/g'
2012-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering
Run "make update-copyright".
2011-08-08tests: complete the renaming framework_failure -> framework_failure_Stefano Lattarini
These changes were mostly mechanical, made by running the following command: git grep -lw framework_failure | grep -v ChangeLog \ | xargs perl -pi -e 's/\b(framework_failure)\b/${1}_/' and then editing init.cfg and `tests/cp/cp-a-selinux' by hand. * tests/init.cfg (framework_failure): Remove, `framework_failure_' from init.sh should be used instead in the tests. Remove now-obsolete "FIXME" comment. (is_local_dir_, require_strace_, require_membership_in_two_groups_, require_sparse_support_, skip_if_mcstransd_is_running_, mkfifo_or_skip_) Use `framework_failure_', not `framework_failure'. * Many test scripts: Likewise.

2010-11-17tests: substitute the single-program $VERBOSE/--version usesJim Meyering
Automatically make all of the changes like this: -test "$VERBOSE" = yes && chgrp --version +print_ver_ chgrp git grep -l 'VERBOSE.*--version'|xargs perl -pi -e \ 's/test "\$VERBOSE" = yes && (\w+) --version/print_ver_ $1/'
2010-10-12tail: fix checking of currently unavailable directoriesPádraig Brady
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): Handle the case where tail --follow=name with inotify, is not able to add a watch on a specified directory. This may happen due to inotify resource limits or if the directory is currently missing or inaccessible. In all these cases, revert to polling which will try to reopen the file later. Note inotify returns ENOSPC when it runs out of resources, and instead we report a particular error message, lest users think one of their file systems is full. (main): Document another caveat with using inotify, where we currently don't recheck directories recreated after the initial watch is setup. * tests/tail-2/F-vs-rename: Fix the endless loop triggered by the above issue. * tests/tail-2/inotify-hash-abuse: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/wait: Don't fail in the resource exhaustion case. * tests/tail-2/F-vs-missing: A new test for this failure mode which was until now just triggered on older buggy linux kernels which returned ENOSPC constantly from inotify_add_watch(). * NEWS: Mention the fix.
2010-07-05tests: make tests requiring a delay to pass, more robustPádraig Brady
* tests/init.cfg: Introduce a retry_delay_() function to repeatedly call a test function that requires a delay. This delay can now be shorter for the common case on fast systems, but will double until a configurable limit it reached before failing on slower systems. * tests/dd/reblock: Use retry_delay_. * tests/misc/cat-buf: Likewise. * tests/misc/stdbuf: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/F-vs-rename: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/flush-initial: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/tail-n0f: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/wait: Likewise. * test/dd/misc: Comment that delay is needed to trigger failure.
2010-01-01maint: update all FSF copyright year lists to include 2010Jim Meyering
Use this command: git ls-files | grep -v COPYING \ | xargs env UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS=1 \ build-aux/update-copyright
2009-12-30tail: test for a bug in inotify-enabled tail -FJim Meyering
tail -F a b would stop tracking additions to b after "mv a b". * tests/tail-2/F-vs-rename: New file. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
