<content type='text'>
* tests/init.cfg: Introduce a retry_delay_() function to
repeatedly call a test function that requires a delay.
This delay can now be shorter for the common case on fast
systems, but will double until a configurable limit it reached
before failing on slower systems.
* tests/dd/reblock: Use retry_delay_.
* tests/misc/cat-buf: Likewise.
* tests/misc/stdbuf: Likewise.
* tests/tail-2/F-vs-rename: Likewise.
* tests/tail-2/flush-initial: Likewise.
* tests/tail-2/tail-n0f: Likewise.
* tests/tail-2/wait: Likewise.
* test/dd/misc: Comment that delay is needed to trigger failure.

* tests/test-lib.sh (Exit): New function by Ralf Wildenhues in automake
http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=automake.git;a=commitdiff;h=20594c08f63
* tests/**: Convert all uses:

This restrictive change converted the vast majority:

  git grep -l '^(exit \$fail); exit \$fail$' \
    | xargs perl -pi -e 's/'^\(exit \$fail\); exit \$fail$/Exit \$fail/'

And this did the rest, plus a few undesirable ones, so I manually
backed out the changes to ChangeLog-* and build-aux/check.mk:

  git grep -l -E '\(exit [^)]+\); exit ' \
    | xargs perl -pi -e 's/\(exit (.+?)\); exit \1/Exit $1/'

<content type='text'>
* src/dd.c (O_FULLBLOCK): Define using an enum, not #define.
Derive the value, rather than hard-coding to one that might conflict.
(usage): Mention iflag=fullblock in --help output.
(scanargs): Reset the O_FULLBLOCK bit, so that we don't try to set
an undefined attribute via fcntl (fd, F_SETFL, ...
* tests/dd/misc: Signal framework_failure when necessary.
Use "compare actual expected", so any diffs look "right".
* NEWS (dd): Alphabetize and reword.
* coreutils.texi (dd invocation): Adjust wording.

<title>Revamp test-related Makefiles.</title>

<id>urn:sha1:512e111a926fedbd7dc7b0875ab837dbb7d2a7a6</id>
<content type='text'>
One side-effect of this change is that "make check" now works even if
you put "." early in your shell's search PATH (don't do that!).

Remove all test-related Makefile.am files, except those generated
by mk-script.  Instead, tests/Makefile.am now lists not only the
tests directly under tests/, but also those in tests/*/ that are
not generated by mk-script, e.g., cp/abuse, cp/acl, mv/i-1, etc.

A lot of these changes are like this:

-. $srcdir/../lang-default
+. $top_srcdir/tests/lang-default

-. $srcdir/../test-lib.sh
+. $top_srcdir/tests/test-lib.sh

* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove corresponding Makefiles.
* tests/check.mk (vc_exe_in_TESTS): Relax syntax requirements.
* tests/rwx-to-mode: Remove file.  Rewritten as...
* tests/test-lib.sh (rwx_to_mode_): ...this new function.
* tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove rwx-to-mode.
(SUBDIRS): Remove each dir with a removed Makefile.am.
(EXTRA_DIST): Add $(TESTS).
(TESTS): Add over 300 entries.
