Eric Blake fd33cbeb 2011-06-07T15:41:20 test-perror: relax test to ignore cygwin bug glibc was not the only platform where fprintf(fopen(,"r")) fails to detect errors; cygwin 1.7.9 is another culprit (although it will be fixed for 1.7.10), and I suspect that several other platforms were failing perror2 for the same reason. At this point, there are so many functions affected, and the way to avoid the bug is easy enough (don't pass bogus streams to output-producing functions), that I'm not worried about fixing things other than to document them. * tests/test-perror2.c (main): Relax test on requiring detection of stream errors, and use unbuffered stream. * doc/posix-functions/dprintf.texi (dprintf): Document bug. * doc/posix-functions/fprintf.texi (fprintf): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/fputc.texi (fputc): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/fputs.texi (fputs): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/fputws.texi (fputws): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/fwprintf.texi (fwprintf): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/fwrite.texi (fwrite): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/getopt.texi (getopt): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/perror.texi (perror): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/printf.texi (printf): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/psiginfo.texi (psiginfo): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/psignal.texi (psignal): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/putc.texi (putc): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/putc_unlocked.texi (putc_unlocked): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/putchar.texi (putchar): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/putchar_unlocked.texi (putchar_unlocked): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/puts.texi (puts): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/putwc.texi (putwc): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/putwchar.texi (putwchar): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/vdprintf.texi (vdprintf): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/vfprintf.texi (vfprintf): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/vfwprintf.texi (vfwprintf): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/vprintf.texi (vprintf): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/vwprintf.texi (vwprintf): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/wordexp.texi (wordexp): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/wprintf.texi (wprintf): Likewise.

Eric Blake 2f035758 2011-05-21T10:08:28 strerror_r: avoid clobbering strerror on cygwin Avoid cygwin strerror_r, since it clobbers strerror buffer through cygwin 1.7.9. __xpg_strerror_r is okay, but if a program is compiled on cygwin 1.7.8 or earlier, it is not available. * lib/strerror_r.c (strerror_r): Don't use cygwin's strerror_r; fall back instead to sys_errlist. * modules/strerror (configure.ac): Add witness. * tests/test-strerror_r.c (main): Enhance test. * doc/posix-functions/strerror_r.texi (strerror_r): Document it. * tests/test-perror2.c (main): Free memory before exit.

Eric Blake 88dabde4 2011-05-20T11:09:53 perror: work around FreeBSD bug POSIX requires that 'errno = 0; perror ("")' print the same message as strerror(0), but this failed if we were replacing strerror to work around the FreeBSD bug of treating 0 as a failure. The goal here is to _not_ replace perror on glibc, even though strerror_r has to be replaced, because the strerror_r replacement is only for the sake of correcting the signature rather than working around bugs in the handling of any particular errnum value. Recall that $gl_cv_func_strerror_r_works is only set if the POSIX signature was detected in the first place. * m4/perror.m4 (gl_FUNC_PERROR): Also replace perror if strerror_r is broken. Move AC_LIBOBJ... * modules/perror (configure.ac): Here. * doc/posix-functions/perror.texi (perror): Document this. * tests/test-perror2.c (main): Enhance test.

Eric Blake c0fb797b 2011-05-20T10:42:26 test-perror: check for strerror interactions This uncovered a glibc bug, although not many people check for perror failures, so for now I'm not working around it. http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12792 * tests/macros.h (STREQ) Add macro. * modules/perror-tests (Files): Add second test. * tests/test-perror2.c (main): New file. * doc/posix-functions/perror.texi (perror): Document glibc bug.
