XXX the ugly sleep at the end is because ATF will mark an un-triggered
race condition (ie, the test passes unexpectedly) as a test failure otherwise.
- The use.fs property is gone.
- Mark the tests/fs/t_create:attrs test as broken when using the default
unprivileged-user:_atf setting. This probably deserves a fix somehow
but I'm not sure at this point.
as an xfail everywhere and, while doing so, make the test longer so that
we trigger the failure all the time -- of course, being a race this may
still happen but the chances should be pretty low.
that does. The former works all the time but the latter gets consistently
stuck on amd64. Mark the latter as an expected timeout (should be a "race
condition" test, but atf does not have such a thing yet[1]).
This clears the test failures, at least, under anita running NetBSD/i386.
From pooka@: this could well be because calling sem_post(3) from a signal
handler can't possibly do the right thing with the pthread implementation.
However, according to signal(7), sem_post(3) is signal-async safe...
While here, program alarms using a timeout shorter than 1 second to speed
up the execution of the tests.
1: Good thing is I finally understand what a "race condition" test looks
like, I believe.
Initial work from the GSoC 2008 project by Lukasz Strzygowski.
I think that this, together with the previous conversion of librt, obsoletes
the tests in the semaphore/ directory. Will investigate later.
