On a Linux 2.6.26 / SPARC machine, I'm getting these test failures: test-getlogin.c:43: assertion failed FAIL: test-getlogin test-getlogin_r.c:44: assertion failed FAIL: test-getlogin_r
Apparently getlogin's error code here is EINVAL instead of ENOTTY. This fixes the test failure. 2011-09-21 Bruno Haible <br...@clisp.org> getlogin, getlogin_r tests: Avoid test failure on Linux/SPARC. * tests/test-getlogin.c (main): Allow a failure with EINVAL. * tests/test-getlogin_r.c (main): Likewise. --- tests/test-getlogin.c.orig Wed Sep 21 12:20:40 2011 +++ tests/test-getlogin.c Wed Sep 21 12:16:25 2011 @@ -40,7 +40,9 @@ if (buf == NULL) { /* getlogin() fails when stdin is not connected to a tty. */ - ASSERT (errno == ENOTTY); + ASSERT (errno == ENOTTY + || errno == EINVAL /* seen on Linux/SPARC */ + ); #if !defined __hpux /* On HP-UX 11.11 it fails anyway. */ ASSERT (! isatty (0)); #endif --- tests/test-getlogin_r.c.orig Wed Sep 21 12:20:40 2011 +++ tests/test-getlogin_r.c Wed Sep 21 12:16:26 2011 @@ -41,7 +41,9 @@ if (err != 0) { /* getlogin_r() fails when stdin is not connected to a tty. */ - ASSERT (err == ENOTTY); + ASSERT (err == ENOTTY + || errno == EINVAL /* seen on Linux/SPARC */ + ); #if !defined __hpux /* On HP-UX 11.11 it fails anyway. */ ASSERT (! isatty (0)); #endif -- In memoriam Orlando Letelier <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orlando_Letelier>
