Hi,

yes, the FAIL_TEST is fundamentally broken. When expecting a failure, we
always expect a particular kind of failure to be the success condition.

Could you describe more, what exactly you were hitting that prompted
for this patch?

The manual says: "These functions are nonstandard BSD extensions."
Can we use those?

Yeah, true.

Yeah, we should really stop abusing assert() like here, and do
something simpler than messing with signals. For instance, have the
testing framework offer a function to say "from now on, we expect a
protocol error to be raised". That might actually cover most if not all
of the non-trivial FAIL_TEST tests.

This should be unnecessary, the frame_callback_wait is already a
roundtrip. Did you actually need this?

This patch is papering over an underlying fundamental issue in our test
framework, but I don't see that as a reason to reject this patch.
Provided the two latter questions I asked are answered "yes", I am ok
with this patch.


Thanks,
