3a7b60b1 2012-01-18 18:42:46 Merge branch 'maint' * maint: cmdline parsing: move into a dedicated perl module
52246cc7 2012-01-18 17:55:40 cmdline parsing: move into a dedicated perl module With this change, we delegate most of the automake and aclocal code for command-line options parsing to a new module "Automake::Getopt". This allows better code sharing between automake and aclocal, and also with Autoconf, which will sync the new module from us. See also autoconf commit 'v2.68-120-gf4be358' (2012-01-17, "getopt: new Autom4te::Getopt module"), and this mailing list discussion: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf-patches/2012-01/msg00033.html> This change might interact with the behaviour described in automake bug#7434; for example, starting from now, "automake -Wfoo --version" will cause automake to emit diagnostic like "unknown warning category 'foo'" before actually printing the version number and exiting. This is not a big deal in practice, and the code sharing and simplifications introduced by this patch is certainly worth it. Still, we should revisited the issue in the future. * lib/Automake/Getopt.pm: New module, basically a slightly-edited copy of the 'lib/Autom4te/Getopt.pm' file from the autoconf devel repository (commit v2.68-120-gf4be358). It defines and exports ... (parse_options): ... this new function. * automake.in (parse_arguments): Use the new function. * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Likewise. * lib/Automake/Makefile.am (dist_perllib_DATA): Add the new file. * tests/getopt.test: Remove. * tests/list-of-tests.mk: Update.
b4ba4e86 2012-01-18 14:08:57 Merge branch 'maint' * maint: cosmetics: move CheckListOfTests.am into tests/ tests: move all under the same hierarchy ('tests/' directory) gitlog-to-changelog: update from upstream changelog: don't cluster multiple entries under the same "date line" + Extra non-trivial edits: * tests/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Update with the xfailing tests that were in 'lib/Automake/tests'. Add proper "FIXME" comment.
fbeda3da 2012-01-18 12:17:11 tests: move all under the same hierarchy ('tests/' directory) This simplifies the organization of the Automake source tree and reduces the (lamentably high) number of Makefiles in the Automake build system by one. It also makes the maintainer check that verifies the consistency of list of tests more self-contained and simpler. Finally, it might be a first step forward the transition to a non-recursive build system for automake (if we ever decide to go down that road fully some day). * lib/Automake/tests: All the '*.pl' tests in here moved ... * tests/pm: ... into this new directory. * lib/Automake/tests/Makefile.am: Remove, its meaningful contents moved ... * tests/Makefile.am: ... here, with obvious adjustments. (test_subdirs): New variable, for the sake of the recipe of 'maintainer-check-list-of-tests'. * CheckListOfTests (maintainer-check-list-of-tests): Enhance its recipe to make it able to deal with test script residing in subdirectories. * Makefile.am (maintainer-check-list-of-tests): Simplified. (TEST_SUBDIRS): Remove, no more needed. * tests/list-of-tests.mk (perl_TESTS): New variable, lists the '.pl' tests just moved into 'tests/pm'. (handwritten_TESTS): Add the contents of '$(perl_TESTS)'. * lib/Automake/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove. * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Update. * .gitignore: Adjust.
2a9862a8 2012-01-18 09:45:01 gitlog-to-changelog: update from upstream * lib/gitlog-to-changelog: Update from gnulib upstream. The only changes should be cosmetic and/or minor fixlets.
a6e60819 2012-01-17 23:31:19 changelog: don't cluster multiple entries under the same "date line" * lib/gitlog-to-changelog: Synced from gnulib. The new version has a new option '--no-cluster', that disables clustering of adjacent commit messages under the same "date line". * Makefile.am (gitlog_to_changelog_options): Add '--no-cluster'. Also add a proper '--format' specification to ensure we have a blank line between the summary line and the commit message body.
0a9d201c 2012-01-17 15:06:05 check: move ".log -> .html" conversion in contrib That feature has been deprecated in the 1.11.x series, and marked for removal from the automake core in the 1.12 release. Here we implement such removal. Reference: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2012-01/msg00005.html> See also commit 'v1.11-650-g20f2ac9'. * doc/automake.texi, NEWS: Update. * lib/am/check.am: Don't include 'check-html.am' anymore. * lib/am/check-html.am: Move ... * contrib/check-html.am: ... to this, and adjust comments. * lib/am/Makefile.am (dist_am_DATA): Update. * contrib/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests2.test: Adjust. * tests/parallel-tests-dryrun.test: Remove checks on the ".log -> .html" conversion. * tests/test-driver-custom-html.test: Remove as obsolete. * tests/test-driver-custom-no-html.test: Likewise. * tests/tap-html.test: Likewise. * tests/list-of-tests.mk: Don't list removed tests anymore.
9928ea5c 2012-01-16 20:06:08 Merge branch 'maint' * maint: recheck: fix interaction with "make -n" vala: avoid potential useless remakes (minor bugfix) vala: enhance tests recheck: behave better with non-GNU make check: separate .log -> .html conversion from core testsuite harness docs: deprecate .log -> .html conversion by parallel-tests tests: list some forgotten test cases in $(TESTS) maintcheck: consistency of list of test scripts build: explicitly declare some targets as .PHONY maint: remove obsolete/broken maintainer targets build: improve silencing of automake build system tests: move list of tests in its own Makefile fragment + Extra non-trivial edits: * tests/parallel-tests2.test: Obvious edits to merge the slightly inconsistent enhancements to coverage done in master with those done in maint. * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS, recheck): Sweeping and rather complex changes to merge the considerable divergences between maint and master in a way that is meaningful and, where possible, retains the semantic changes from both maint and master.
8fec2399 2012-01-13 22:39:47 recheck: fix interaction with "make -n" * lib/am/check.am (recheck): Ensure the recipe does not erroneously remove '.log' files when running under "make -n". For the sake of NetBSD make, this also means that ... (.MAKE): ... this cannot depend on 'recheck' anymore. * tests/parallel-tests-dryrun.test: New test. * tests/list-of-tests.mk: Add it.
d9a7182e 2012-01-13 18:53:43 recheck: behave better with non-GNU make * automake.in (handle_tests): Also substitute '%CHECK_DEPS%' with the value of the '@check' array, containing the list of early test dependencies like '$(check_SCRIPTS)', $(check_PROGRAMS)', etc. * lib/am/check.am (recheck): Explicitly depend on '%CHECK_DEPS%'. (check, recheck): Unify the implementation of their recipes, with different code paths taken depending on the name of the target. This makes the implementation of "recheck" less brittle in the process (especially when non-GNU make and AM_MAKEFLAGS overriding are involved). * lib/am/check-html.am (check-html, recheck-html): Likewise. * tests/check.test: Adjust to avoid spurious failure. * tests/parallel-tests2.test: Improve coverage.
20f2ac90 2012-01-13 17:56:13 check: separate .log -> .html conversion from core testsuite harness That feature is to be deprecated in the 1.11.x series, and removed from the automake core in the 1.12 release, where it will instead be offered in a semi-independent extra '*.am' fragment. So let's start better separating the .log -> .html conversion from the "core code" of the parallel-tests harness. Reference: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2012-01/msg00005.html> * lib/am/check.am (.log.html, check-html, recheck-html): Move these targets ... * automake.in (handle_tests): ... and the initialization of the TEST_SUITE_HTML variable and the cleaning of the $(TEST_SUITE_HTML) file ... * lib/am/check-html.am: ... in this new file, with related (minor) refactorings, enhancements and simplifications. * lib/am/check.am (.MAKE. PHONY, AM_RECURSIVE_TARGETS): Adjust. * lib/am/Makefile.am (dist_am_DATA): Add 'check-html.am'. * tests/parallel-tests2.test: Improve coverage.
27f1a1c9 2012-01-16 10:05:59 maintcheck: consistency of list of test scripts This is basically a backport of commit 'v1.11-358-g7b6ab07' and its follow-ups. The possibility of easily checking that the list of test scripts listed in a Makefile equals that of the tests on the filesystem has proved itself so useful that it's worth taking the annoyance of backporting it to maint. * CheckListOfTests.am: New file, backported from master (commit 'v1.11-1736-g083a75b') with minor adjustments. (maintainer-check-list-of-tests): New target, check for consistency between the list of tests defined in the including Makefile and the list of tests on the filesystem. (clean-maintcheck-testslist-tmp): New rule, to clean up temporary files that might be left around by the rules associated with the previous target. (clean-local): Depend on it. * lib/Automake/tests/Makefile.am: Include `CheckListOfTests.am'. * tests/Makefile.am: Likewise. * Makefile.am (maintainer-check-list-of-test): New target, calling recursively into `tests/' and `lib/Automake/tests/', using ... (TEST_SUBDIRS): ... this new variable. (maintainer-check): Added dependency from the new target `maintainer-check-list-of-tests'.
8856653e 2012-01-15 23:08:21 build: improve silencing of automake build system In this change, we continue the silencing of the automake build system that has been started in commit v1.11-642-g17542c3, but which has been left incomplete there for an (absent-mindness) mistake. * Makefile.am (INSTALL): Silence the recipe. (automake, aclocal): Likewise, and improve them a little since we are at it. * lib/Automake/Makefile.am (Config.pm): Likewise.
5db22a16 2012-01-15 17:40:09 Merge branch 'maint' * maint: gnupload: moved to gnulib sync: gitlog-to-changelog from gnulib upstream test defs: backport optimized 'using_gmake' implementation tests: unify some tests on "make -n", reducing duplication vala: use "$(am__cd) $(srcdir)", not "cd $(srcdir)" + Extra edits: * tests/maken3.test: Carry over (with necessary adjustments) the code from maken4.test that determines whether $MAKE supports the special '.MAKE' target.
05c02989 2012-01-15 17:14:04 gnupload: moved to gnulib Since the gnupload script is not required by automake-generated code (be it configure or Makefile content), and is not specifically tied to automake in any way, it is better to have its master copy installed in the gnulib repository, as is already done for similar generally-useful, maintainer-oriented scripts. We can them sync it from there. See also gnulib commit v0.0-6822-gf8b7120, and: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-01/msg00222.html> * Makefile.am (FETCHFILES): Added 'gnupload'. (fetch): Also sync 'gnupload' from the gnulib repository. * lib/gnupload: Synced from gnulib. * NEWS: Update.
def0340b 2012-01-15 17:10:21 sync: gitlog-to-changelog from gnulib upstream * lib/gitlog-to-changelog: Synced from upstream, by "make fetch".
a23d5bdc 2012-01-13 13:20:34 Merge branch 'maint' * maint: dist: avoid $(distdir) removal failure on MSYS/MinGW tests: fix spurious failure of 'get-sysconf.test' coverage: expose automake bug#10470 (distcheck-related) tests: make 'aclocal-install-absdir.test' executable tests: require GNU make in 'vala-vapth.test' vala: fix VPATH builds tests: fix some bugs in the vala-vpath test
dfb5e52f 2012-01-11 18:09:07 dist: avoid $(distdir) removal failure on MSYS/MinGW This change fixes automake bug#10470. On MSYS (1.0.17) it is not possible to remove a directory that is in use, and this, together with timing issues, could cause spurious failures in the cleanup code of the "distcheck" recipe. In fact, it should be noted that assuming a directory can be removed while it the CWD of a running process is a POSIX violation: "If the directory is the root directory or the current working directory of any process, it is unspecified whether the function succeeds, or whether it shall fail and set errno to [EBUSY]." * lib/am/distdir.am (am__remove_distdir): If rm fails, sleep some seconds and retry, to give potential "pending" processes some time to exit and "release" the directory. * tests/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Remove 'distcheck-pr10470.test'. Report and suggestions by Peter Rosin and Eric Blake.
96fef7a3 2012-01-06 23:37:09 dist: distdir not unconditionally removed anymore for xz and lzip This change fixes automake bug#10444 a.k.a. bug#10448. The 'dist-xz' and 'dist-lzip' recipes were erroneously using '$(am__remove_distdir)' instead of '$(am__post_remove_distdir)' to cleanup the '$(distdir)'; so a "make dist" issued in a package using (say) gzip and xz compression would have failed to properly created the gzip tarball, since the distdir was unconditionally removed by "make dist-xz" upon its completion, instead of being left populated for the following "make dist-gzip". The problem with 'dist-xz' was introduced in the merge commit `v1.11-1142-g47587d1', and the problem with 'dist-lzip' was introduced in the merge commit `v1.11-1673-gc1b14e9' * lib/am/distdir.am (dist-xz): Use '$(am__post_remove_distdir)', not '$(am__remove_distdir)'. (dist-lzip): Likewise.
8525b870 2012-01-10 10:01:29 tap/awk: avoid redirection issues with bash 3.2 and earlier Fixes automake bug#10465. * lib/tap-driver.sh: Add workaround for bash 3.2 and earlier, which sometimes does not properly set '$?' when failing to write redirected output of a compound command. See the Autoconf manual for more details. The workaround was pointed out by Eric Blake.
08820f0b 2012-01-06 10:46:09 scripts: quote 'like this', not `like this' This change follows up on recent changes to the GNU coding standards. They now suggest that we should quote 'like this' or "like this" instead of `like this'; see: <http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Quote-Characters.html>. Gnulib is being changed accordingly, and Gnulib imports some files directly from Automake master, so change those files to use the straight-up style. This affects only commentary and quoting in diagnostics.
dacb456a 2012-01-06 15:01:26 Merge branch 'maint' * maint: dist: do not wrap calls to 'tar' with the 'missing' script fixup: previous commit v1.11-627-g1e0aedc tests: fix spurious failures due to autom4te caching
01c3294b 2012-01-03 16:12:46 dist: do not wrap calls to 'tar' with the 'missing' script The `missing' script is meant to allow non-developers to build a package in the face of slightly-skewed timestamps (as might happen e.g. when the package is obtained from a VCS checkout rather than from a distribution tarball). It is *not* the business of the `missing' script to try to provide wrappers for all the maintainer tools (in this case, to tool being a decent tar program). Such wrapping of `tar' was not only inappropriate, but it was also preventing the legitimate overriding (at make runtime) of the `tar' program used in the creation of the distribution tarballs. See also automake bug#9822. * lib/missing: Don't try to specially wrap `tar' invocations anymore. * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): In the definitions of the `AMTAR' variable, do not wrap the `tar' invocation with the `missing' script anymore. Instead, allow the user to override the intended tar program at make runtime, by defining the `TAR' environment variable. [$1 == v7]: Similarly for the definitions of the `am__tar' and `am__untar' variables. Since we are at it, don't make them depend anymore on the definition of the obsolescent `AMTAR' variable. * NEWS: Update. * tests/missing-tar.test: Remove, it's obsolete. * tests/tar-override.test: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update. Reported by Akim Demaille.
254227b6 2012-01-05 13:41:13 parallel-tests: avoid trailing backslashes in make recipes The new testsuite-harness could generate recipes with a trailing backslash character (possibly followed by blank characters only), in the very common case where the user hadn't defined the special $(AM_TESTS_FD_REDIRECT) variable. This caused spurious syntax errors with at least older bash versions (e.g., bash 2.05b), and could be potentially unportable to other weaker shells. See automake bug#10436: <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=10436> and coreutils bug#10427: <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=10427#8> * lib/am/check2.am: Rework line breaks so that no backslash can be at the end of a line. * tests/parallel-tests-trailing-bslash.test: New test. * tests/list-of-tests.mk: Add it. Report and diagnosis by Paul Eggert.
d1fbc759 2012-01-05 20:09:24 Merge branch 'maint' * maint: parallel-tests: avoid issue with overly long lines in sed input Additional edits: * NEWS: Remove entry from merged commit, since that will also be present in the NEWS file of automake 1.11.3. * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS, recheck, recheck-html): Rework merged changes to adapt them to the different form these recipes has assumed in the master branch (w.r.t. the maint branch).
e3b0e124 2012-01-05 15:13:30 parallel-tests: avoid issue with overly long lines in sed input See automake bug#10437: <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=10437> and coreutils bug#10427: <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=10427#8> * lib/am/check.am (recheck, recheck-html): In order to strip trailing whitespace from the definition of the `$list' variable, we used to invoke sed in a way that could cause it to get passed overly long input lines, causing spurious failures. So rework the logic of the recipe to avoid any sed invocation, relying on simpler shell idioms instead. (check-TESTS): Reorganize the recipe to be more similar to the one of `recheck', for consistency and simplicity. * NEWS: Update. Report and analysis by Paul Eggert.

f4e221b6 2012-01-02 09:40:13 progs, libs: implement EXTRA_foo_DEPENDENCIES Backported from commit `v1.11-377-g6edafbb'. The feature implemented by that change is quite unobtrusive, so adding it to a maintenance release is acceptable. Also, there have been requests from real-world users for this feature since it has been implemented in master; see automake bug#9320: <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=9320> and this short discussion on the automake list: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2010-11/msg00099.html> It would be a pity to make such users wait even more (until Automake 1.12 is out) before they could start using this feature. Thus we backport it, so that it will appear in the next maintenance version of automake (1.11.3). * automake.in (handle_programs, handle_libraries) (handle_ltlibraries): Mark EXTRA_*_DEPENDENCIES as recognized. * doc/automake.texi (Linking, Program and Library Variables) (LIBOBJS): Document EXTRA_*_DEPENDENCIES. * lib/am/library.am (%LIBRARY%): Also depend on $(EXTRA_%XLIBRARY%_DEPENDENCIES). * lib/am/ltlibrary.am (%LTLIBRARY%): Also depend on (%XLTLIBRARY%_DEPENDENCIES). * lib/am/program.am (%PROGRAM%%EXEEXT%): Also depend on $(EXTRA_%XPROGRAM%_DEPENDENCIES). * tests/extradep.test, tests/extradep2.test: New tests. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update. * NEWS: Update.

e637fa2a 2011-12-30 15:54:40 dist: obsolete support for lzma (superseded by xz and lzip) The lzma utilities are today superseded by the xz utilities; in fact, the official site at <http://tukaani.org/lzma/> reads: ``LZMA Utils are legacy data compression software with high compression ratio. LZMA Utils are no longer developed, ... Users of LZMA Utils should move to XZ Utils.'' and the existing automake manual (as of 1.11.2) already says: ``dist-xz Generate an 'xz' tar archive of the distribution. xz archives are frequently smaller than bzip2-compressed archives. The 'xz' format will soon (early 2009) displace the 'lzma' format'' Also, the `dist-lzma' target still suffers of never-solved bugs, due to the too-high compression ratio its uses by default, which might cause an unacceptable memory consumption when one tries to compress or, worse, decompress the created tarballs; see also: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2011-12/msg00025.html> <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=9658> * NEWS: Update. * doc/automake.texi (Dist, Options): State that `dist-lzma' will go away in the next major automake version. * lib/Automake/Options.pm (_process_option_list): Deprecate `dist-lzma'. * tests/lzma.test: Update.

e9150626 2011-12-08 22:54:18 repo: don't commit generated files in the git repository anymore It has been quite some time since autoconf and libtool have stopped committing the generated autotools files in their git repositories, with no significant ill effects we're aware of. It's true that the autoconf bootstrap process has now the minor annoyance that a pre-installed autoconf is required to complete it; but luckily automake will not have a similar annoyance, since our bootstrap script take care, through some hoops, to use the very automake and aclocal versions from the current git checkout to generate the required aclocal.m4 and Makefile.in files. In fact, this has been a necessity also in the past, because automake has been known to use in its own build system new development features that hadn't been present in any previously released automake distribution. * aclocal.m4: Delete. * configure: Likewise. * Makefile.in: Likewise. * doc/Makefile.in: Likewise. * lib/Automake/Makefile.in: Likewise. * lib/Automake/tests/Makefile.in: Likewise. * lib/Makefile.in: Likewise. * lib/am/Makefile.in: Likewise. * m4/Makefile.in: Likewise. * tests/Makefile.in: Likewise. * .gitignore: Ignore configure, aclocal.m4, and all the Makefile.in files. * configure.ac (AC_PREREQ): New macro call, to require the latest autoconf (2.68 for the moment).

Also, it's worth noting that the main purpose of the `missing' script is to allow a non-developer to build the package in the face of slightly-skewed timestamps, not to provide wrappers for all the maintainer tools -- so we don't have to try too hard when `missing' is just called to wrap `tar'. * tests/missing-tar.test: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.

Fix entry relative to that commit, to adapt to differences between maint and master.
c8e01d58 2011-12-09 23:17:18 dist-xz, dist-bzip2: don't hard-code -9, honor envvar settings Before the present change, automake-generated `dist-xz' rule used a hard-coded `xz -9'. That was a problem because on this front, xz differs from gzip and bzip2. While the latter two don't incur any run-time decompression penalty for using a higher compression level, specifying -9 with xz imposes a potentially fatal virtual memory requirement on any client that wants to decompress your tar.xz file. People have complained that a tarball compressed with -9 cannot be uncompressed in a low-memory environment (wrt-based embedded). Hence, instead of defaulting to -9, which is useful only for very large tarballs, it defaults to -e (equivalent to -6e). This limits the default memory requirements imposed on decompressors, yet still gives very good compression ratios. * lib/am/distdir.am (dist-xz): Do not hard-code xz's -9: that made it impossible to override. Actually don't default to -9, either, since that induced inordinately large virtual memory usage when merely decompressing. Instead, use its XZ_OPT envvar, defaulting to -e if not defined. Suggested by Lasse Collin. (dist, dist-all) [?XZ?]: Likewise (dist-bzip2): Similarly, do not hard-code -9, but do continue to use -9 by default. Honor the BZIP2 envvar. (dist, dist-all) [?BZIP2?]: Likewise * NEWS: Update. * doc/automake.texi (The Types of Distributions): Describe the newly enabled environment variables. This is inspired to commit v1.11-389-g6da46f3, with additional changes to reflect that the xz compression level should default to -e, not -9.

1ec16686 2011-10-23 13:19:21 info: allow user to inhibit creation/update of '${infodir}/dir' With this change, we allow the user to request the install-info rules not to update the `${infodir}/dir' file, by exporting the environment variable `AM_UPDATE_INFO_DIR' to the value "no". This is especially useful to distro packagers, and is a definite improvement over our previous hack of looking whether the `install-info' program was the Debian or GNU version -- hack which had been silently broken with recent versions of debian install-info BTW (probably since dpkg 1.15.4, 2009-09-06).

326ecba2 2011-09-30 12:12:43 dist: auxiliary files can be distributed from subdir Makefiles With this change, we make it possible for a subdir Makefile.am to distribute files in the config auxdir; while this means that some files might be copied multiple times, it simplify some logic in the automake script, and fix at least one important bug. In fact, before this change, the auxiliary script `test-driver' was not being distributed as expected when TESTS was defined only in a subdir Makefile (which is a pretty common setup indeed). Now this does not happen anymore: so the present change fixes automake bug#9546. Another welcome collateral effect is that `dist-auxfile-2.test' now passes. OTOH, the present changes *breaks threaded automake*. The reason is that automake needs to serialize file installations spawned by `--add-missing' (this isn't for cosmetic reasons, but is really needed to avoid possible race conditions and botched output files). Currently the code that installs required files is intertwined with the code that declares the DIST_COMMON variables; so, upon de-serialization, the definition of DIST_COMMON might get emitted in the wrong Makefile.in. Some follow-up refactoring in automake will soon take care of remedying this situation. For the moment, we just declare some "parallel-am" tests as xfailing. * automake.in (maybe_push_required_file): Add ad-hoc handling for the case where the directory part of the required file is different from the subdir where the current Makefile.am resides, but is equal to the "config-aux directory" ($config_auxdir). This is needed to allow a construct in a non-top-level Makefile.am to require a file in the config-aux directory. * tests/test-driver-is-distributed.test: Extend and adjust.

93fcb730 2011-09-28 16:31:24 tap/awk: account for unusual korn shell signal handling behaviour This change has been motivated by a testsuite failure on Debian with the AT&T Korn Shell version 93u-1. * lib/tap-driver.sh: Temporarily ignore some common signals when waiting for the test command to complete, to avoid premature exit in Korn shells that propagate to themselves signals that have killed a child process. See also related commit `v1.11-1342-g6321ad3'.
c6988f33 2011-09-28 16:05:06 tap/awk: handle exit statuses > 256 (seen on few korn shells) Some Korn shells, when a child process die due to signal number n, can leave in $? an exit status of 256+n instead of the more standard 128+n. Apparently, both behaviours are allowed by POSIX, so be prepared to handle them both. This change has been motivated by a testsuite failure on Debian with the AT&T Korn Shell version 93u-1. * lib/tap-driver.sh (get_test_exit_message): Handle the described Korn Shell behaviour too. ($scriptversion): Update.
