Various conformtest tests fail because of known issues, filed in Bugzilla, that are hard to fix (requiring new features, kernel cooperation or involving changing types in ways that may involve care around padding when interfacing to the kernel). Such an issue has the effect of making the whole test for the (standard, header) pair fail, so hiding any other issues with that header for that standard (possibly regressions or architecture-specific issues). This patch adds a mechanism for individual conformtest test expectations to start with xfail-, meaning that a failure of that particular assertion does not cause the whole test to fail at the makefile level and so failure at the makefile level can be used to detect other issues that are likely to be easier to fix. This is similar to the whitelisted symbols in the linknamespace tests, or the marking of particular libm tests as allowing spurious or missing exceptions, for example. The bugs filed in Bugzilla should still be fixed, and the xfail- markers removed at that point, but xfail- renders the tests more useful until that happens. Note that there is no way to add such a marker for the assertion that a header uses only symbols in the namespace of symbols it's meant to use. I don't think there's any need for a way to xfail those namespace tests other than xfailing the whole (standard, header) pair at the makefile level, since they are generally straightforward to fix (add appropriate conditionals on the problem definitions). The xfails in this patch do not necessarily cover all cases of hard-to-fix header bugs filed in Bugzilla that currently show up in conformtest failures; there may be more yet to add for existing open bugs.

This directory contains the sources of the GNU C Library. See the file "version.h" for what release version you have. The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems, and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system. It provides the system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system. In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications. In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers. The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[4567]86-*-gnu. The current GNU/Hurd support requires out-of-tree patches that will eventually be incorporated into an official GNU C Library release. When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library requires Linux kernel version 2.6.32 or later. Also note that the shared version of the libgcc_s library must be installed for the pthread library to work correctly. The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels: aarch64*-*-linux-gnu alpha*-*-linux-gnu arm-*-linux-gnueabi hppa-*-linux-gnu Not currently functional without patches. i[4567]86-*-linux-gnu x86_64-*-linux-gnu Can build either x86_64 or x32 ia64-*-linux-gnu m68k-*-linux-gnu microblaze*-*-linux-gnu mips-*-linux-gnu mips64-*-linux-gnu powerpc-*-linux-gnu Hardware or software floating point, BE only. powerpc64*-*-linux-gnu Big-endian and little-endian. s390-*-linux-gnu s390x-*-linux-gnu sh[34]-*-linux-gnu sparc*-*-linux-gnu sparc64*-*-linux-gnu tilegx-*-linux-gnu tilepro-*-linux-gnu If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc maintainers; see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more information. See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install the GNU C Library. You might also consider reading the WWW pages for the C library at http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/. The GNU C Library is (almost) completely documented by the Texinfo manual found in the `manual/' subdirectory. The manual is still being updated and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like. For corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component, following the bug-reporting instructions below. Please be sure to check the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has already been corrected. Please see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html for bug reporting information. We are now using the Bugzilla system to track all bug reports. This web page gives detailed information on how to report bugs properly. The GNU C Library is free software. See the file COPYING.LIB for copying conditions, and LICENSES for notices about a few contributions that require these additional notices to be distributed. License copyright years may be listed using range notation, e.g., 1996-2015, indicating that every year in the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that would otherwise be listed individually.
