Hello,
Quoting
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/development/chapter06/glibc.html
You may see some test failures. The Glibc test suite is somewhat
dependent on the host system. This is a list of the most common issues
seen for some versions of LFS:
End quote.
To that list, I would like to propose the inclusion of the following
failed tests:
XPASS: elf/tst-protected1a
XPASS: elf/tst-protected1b
The explanation to be included in the book is as follows:
The tests elf/tst-protected1a and elf/tst-protected1b are known to
fail with XPASS, which is a failure due to a successful test that is
indeed expected to fail. The failures of elf/tst-protected1a and
elf/tst-protected1b with XPASS is indeed a good thing because they
have been expected to fail only with old versions of GCC and binutils
(for the details, see
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-08/msg01210.html for the
background and https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-09/msg00125.html
for the conclusion).
Thank you for considering my proposal.
