Previously, the implementation would conditionally exit based on the
status argument, which GCC did not know about. This leads to
false uninitialized variable warnings when data is accessed after a
TEST_VERIFY_EXIT failure (from code which would never execute).
This causes more test programs to link in the support_record_failure
function, which triggers an early call to mmap from an ELF
constructor, but this should not have side effects intefering
with the functionality actually under test (unlike, say, a call
to malloc).
This patch adds a simple SYSV message queue test to check for correct
argument passing on kernel. The idea is neither to be an extensive
testing nor to check for any specific Linux test.
* sysvipc/Makefile (tests): Add test-sysvmsg.
* sysvipc/test-sysvmsg.c: New file.
* test-skeleton.c (FAIL_UNSUPPORTED): New define.
The new functions support_record_failure records a test failure,
but does not terminate the process. The macros TEST_VERIFY
and TEST_VERIFY_EXIT check that a condition is true.
The new test driver in <support/test-driver.c> has feature parity with
the old one. The main difference is that its hooking mechanism is
based on functions and function pointers instead of macros. This
commit also implements a new environment variable, TEST_COREDUMPS,
which disables the code which disables coredumps (that is, it enables
them if the invocation environment has not disabled them).
<test-skeleton.c> defines wrapper functions so that it is possible to
use existing macros with the new-style hook functionality.
This commit changes only a few test cases to the new test driver, to
make sure that it works as expected.
