Consensus in [1] was that the right way to fix this was simply to
redirect from /dev/null to terminate the test if no inputs was found
by the tests own globbing e.g. "*/*.{o,os,oS}.d" This can happen when
the build is incomplete and the tests are started. This failure causes
check-local-headers.sh to hang forever waiting for input from stdin.
This change makes the test terminate immediately if the glob doesn't
return any files.

The bits/libc-lock.h and bits/stdio-lock.h headers are installed, but
not used by any other installed header.
Accordingly, this patch stops these headers from being installed. A
followup is intended to move these headers out of the bits/ namespace.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that installed stripped shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch).
* Makefile (headers): Remove bits/libc-lock.h.
* libio/Makefile (headers): Remove bits/stdio-lock.h.
The conditional that evaluates if there are any FAILed test cases
currently always fails, since we ensure it fails if we find any
unexpected results in tests.sum and it would obviously fail if it does
not find failed results in tests.sum. This patch fixes this by simply
inverting the result of the egrep, i.e. succeed if egrep fails (to
find failed results) and fail if it succeeds.
Tested with 'make subdirs=localedata check' and 'make subdirs=locale
check' where all tests succeed and with 'make subdirs=elf check' where
a couple of tests fail for me.
* Makefile (summarize-tests): Fix return value on success.
Carlos reported failures in conform/ tests in environments where the
compiler used could only find headers in glibc's source and build
trees, not any previously installed headers
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-09/msg00040.html>.
This patch moves nptl/semaphore.h to sysdeps/pthread/semaphore.h so
that it can be found by builds from all glibc subdirectories; it's not
in any way NPTL-specific. (I left the Makefile setting to install
this header in nptl/, but maybe it should move as well - it's just not
clear to me what ifeq ($(subdir),...) conditional should be used to
select the directory to associate the header with for installation
purposes. The path in the toplevel Makefile used for begin-end-check
also remains hardcoded; it's a known todo issue to rework that test to
run in each subdirectory checking the headers installed from that
subdirectory, rather than a separate hardcoded list.)
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that installed stripped shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch). I did *not* test a
configuration such as that in which Carlos saw failure.
* nptl/semaphore.h: Move to ...
* sysdeps/pthread/semaphore.h: ... here.
* Makefile (installed-headers): Change nptl/semaphore.h to
sysdeps/pthread/semaphore.h.
Various glibc build / install / test code has C locale settings that
are redundant with LC_ALL=C.
LC_ALL takes precedence over LANG, so anywhere that sets LC_ALL=C
(explicitly, or through it being in the default environment for
running tests) does not need to set LANG=C. LC_ALL=C also takes
precedence over LANGUAGE, since
2001-01-02 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com>
* intl/dcigettext.c (guess_category_value): Rewrite so that LANGUAGE
value is ignored if the selected locale is the C locale.
* intl/tst-gettext.c: Set locale for above change.
* intl/tst-translit.c: Likewise.
and so settings of LANGUAGE=C are also redundant when LC_ALL=C is
set. One test also had LC_ALL=C in its -ENV setting, although it's
part of the default environment used for tests.
This patch removes the redundant settings. It removes a suggestion in
install.texi of setting LANGUAGE=C LC_ALL=C for "make install"; the
Makefile.in target "install" already sets LC_ALL_C so there's no need
for the user to set it (and nor should there be any need for the user
to set it).
If some build machine tool used by "make install" uses a version of
libintl predating that 2001 change, and the user has LANGUAGE set, the
removal of LANGUAGE=C from the Makefile.in "install" rule could in
principle affect the user's installation. However, I don't think we
need to be concerned about pre-2001 build tools.

This patch is an updated version of
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-01/msg00198.html> and
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-03/msg00180.html>.
Normal practice for software testsuites is that rather than
terminating immediately when a test fails, they continue running and
report at the end on how many tests passed or failed.
The principle behind the glibc testsuite stopping on failure was
probably that the expected state is no failures and so any failure
indicates a problem such as miscompilation. In practice, while this
is fairly close to true for native testing on x86_64 and x86 (kernel
bugs and race conditions can still cause intermittent failures), it's
less likely to be the case on other platforms, and so people testing
glibc run the testsuite with "make -k" and then examine the logs to
determine whether the failures are what they expect to fail on that
platform, possibly with some automation for the comparison.
This patch switches the glibc testsuite to the normal convention of
not stopping on failure - unless you use stop-on-test-failure=y, in
which case it behaves essentially as it did before (and does not
generate overall test summaries on failure). Instead, the summary
tests.sum may contain tests that FAILed. At the end of the test run,
any FAIL or ERROR lines from tests.sum are printed, and then it exits
with error status if there were any such lines. In addition, build
failures will also cause the test run to stop - this has the
justification that those *do* indicate serious problems that should be
promptly fixed and aren't generally hard to fix (but apart from that,
avoiding the build stopping on those failures seems harder).
Note that unlike the previous patches in this series, this *does*
require people with automation around testing glibc to change their
processes - either to start using tests.sum / xtests.sum to track
failures and compare them with expectations (with or without also
using "make -k" and examining "make" logs to identify build failures),
or else to use stop-on-test-failure=y and ignore the new tests.sum /
xtests.sum mechanism. (If all you check is the exit status from "make
check", no changes are needed unless you want to avoid test runs
continuing after the first failure.)
Tested x86_64.
* scripts/evaluate-test.sh: Handle fourth argument to determine
whether test run should stop on failure.
* Makeconfig (stop-on-test-failure): New variable.
(evaluate-test): Pass fourth argument to evaluate-test.sh based on

stop-on-test-failure=y.
* INSTALL: Regenerated.
This patch, an updated version of
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-01/msg00197.html>, makes
testsuite runs generate an overall summary of test results.
A new script merge-test-results.sh deals both with collecting results
within a directory to a file with all the results from that directory,
and collecting the results from subdirectories into a single overall
file (there's not much in common between the two modes of operation of
the script, but it seemed silly to have two separate scripts for
this). Within a directory, missing results produce UNRESOLVED lines;
at top level, missing results for a whole directory produce an ERROR
line (since toplevel can't identify what the specific missing tests
are in this case).
Note that this does not change the rules for when "make" considers
there has been an error, or terminates, so unexpected failures will
still cause make to terminate, or, with -k, mean the commands for
"tests" don't get run because of failure of a dependency.
Tested x86_64, including that the summary does in fact reflect all the
tests with .test-result files.
* scripts/merge-test-results.sh: New file.
* Makefile (tests-special-notdir): New variable.
(tests): Run merge-test-results.sh.

This patch is a revised and updated version of
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-01/msg00196.html>.
In order to generate overall summaries of the results of all tests in
the glibc testsuite, we need to identify and concatenate the files
with the results of individual tests.
Tomas Dohnalek's patch used $(common-objpfx)*/*.test-result for this.
However, the normal glibc approach is explicit enumeration of the
expected set of files with a given property, rather than all files
matching some pattern like that. Furthermore, we would like to be
able to mark tests as UNRESOLVED if the file with their results is for
some reason missing, and in future we would like to be able to mark
tests as UNSUPPORTED if they are disabled for a particular
configuration (rather than simply having them missing from the list of
tests as at present). Such handling of tests that were not run or did
not record results requires an explicit enumeration of tests.
For the tests following the default makefile rules, $(tests) (and
$(xtests)) provides such an enumeration. Others, however, are added
directly as dependencies of the "tests" and "xtests" makefile
targets. This patch changes the makefiles to put them in variables
tests-special and xtests-special, with appropriate dependencies on the
tests listed there then being added centrally.
Those variables are used in Rules and so need to be set before Rules
is included in a subdirectory makefile, which is often earlier in the
makefile than the dependencies were present before. We previously
discussed the question of where to include Rules; see the question at
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2012-11/msg00798.html>, and a
discussion in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2013-01/msg00337.html> of why
Rules is included early rather than late in subdirectory makefiles.
It was necessary to avoid an indirection through the check-abi target
and get the check-abi-* targets for individual libraries into the
tests-special variable. The intl/ test $(objpfx)tst-gettext.out,
previously built only because of dependencies from other tests, was
also added to tests-special for the same reason.
The entries in tests-special are the full makefile targets, complete
with $(objpfx) and .out. If a future change causes tests to be named
consistently with a .out suffix, this can be changed to include just
the path relative to $(objpfx), without .out.
Tested x86_64, including that the same set of files is generated in
the build directory by a build and testsuite run both before and after
the patch (except for changes to the
elf/tst-null-argv.debug.out.<number> file name), and a build with
run-built-tests=no to verify there aren't any more obvious instances
of the issue Marcus Shawcroft reported with a previous version in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-01/msg00462.html>.

The toplevel Makefile's subdir_targets variable refers to
subdir_lint.out. As far as I can tell, this is not defined or
referenced anywhere else in the tree. Having .out makefile references
that don't refer to the output from testcases seems confusing; this
patch removes the reference to subdir_lint.out.

[BZ #15915] As described in the bug, the pattern rule for lib%.so files
in Makerules includes linkobj/libc.so as a dependency. However, the
explicit rule for linkobj/libc.so is in the top-level Makefile.
Thus, the subdirectory makefiles that include Makerules end up with an
erroneous makefile pattern rule for linkobj/libc.so that includes
itself as a dependency. The result is make warnings whenever rules
for other .so files are resolved -- and, on occasion, actual makefile
failures when a race condition causes the implicit rule to actually be
used.
This patch moves the explicit rules for linkobj/libc.so into Makerules
to clear up this problem. It also elaborates a couple of comments
that I'd initially found confusing.
This patch scratches an itch. Each individual gcc command in the
glibc build is over 1K, which means it takes up a good chunk of my
terminal. Most of that is include paths. Any version of GCC new
enough to build glibc supports response files, which were added in
2005. So use a response file for the static list of include paths.
Now the build commands are a lot shorter, and easier to use when
developing glibc.
