tests: don't run tail-2/inotify-race by default2009-12-06T00:42:42ZPádraig BradyP@draigBrady.com2009-12-06T00:42:42Zurn:sha1:afd087d4140a40a1ff9db84be5bcb5c7c49084c8
* tests/tail-2/inotify-race: Note the caveats of the test.
I.E. the intermittent skips and the gdb hang reported
by Alan Curry. Add extra info to the log on why the test
is skipped as it may be due to multiple reasons. Mark
the test as very expensive so that it's not normally run.
tail -F can fail to track a file after it's been rotated2009-11-16T08:30:43ZJim Meyeringmeyering@redhat.com2009-11-15T08:25:29Zurn:sha1:3b997a9bcb05198c880e5d1605a3c96c1d7f9c5d
Tailing forever and by-name (--follow=name, -F), tail would
sometimes fail to follow a file that had been removed via rename.
If you can't apply this patch and have tail 7.6 or newer, you can
work around the bug via the undocumented --disable-inotify option.
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): When tailing by name (-F),
do not un-watch a file upon receipt of the IN_MOVE_SELF event.
Reported by Arjan Opmeer in http://bugs.debian.org/548439.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
Also see http://marc.info/?l=coreutils-bug&m=125829031916515
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add tail-2/inotify-rotate.
* tests/tail-2/inotify-rotate: New test.

tests: factor 350 fail=0 initializations into test-lib.sh2009-10-30T11:50:12ZJim Meyeringmeyering@redhat.com2009-10-30T09:50:21Zurn:sha1:3c88587b2eadee11413f4207abbbf13af07c438d
Run this command to remove the factored-out "fail=0" lines.
perl -ni -e '/^fail=0$/ or print' $(g grep -l '^fail=0$')
* tests/test-lib.sh: Initialize fail=0 here, not in 300+ scripts.
* tests/...: nearly all bourne shell scripts
