tests: reinstate logname error verification

2026-04-17T15:15:08Z

* tests/misc/user.sh: Modify the "unshare -U logname" test, so that it does not fail on glibc versions (< 2.28, >= 2.38) that do a fallback lookup based on the tty.

tests: fix false failure with dash

2026-04-17T12:24:46Z

* tests/date/date-locale-hour.sh: Just strip the char before the last x, assuming it's going to be the newline output by `locale`. dash doesn't support $'' within ${}.

tests: Avoid accidental matching of the vendor field of $host, part 2

2026-04-17T04:16:08Z

* tests/local.mk (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Remove host_triplet. * tests/chgrp/basic.sh: Use $host_os instead of $host_triplet. * tests/misc/io-errors.sh: Likewise.

tests: mktemp: test the behavior when writing to standard output fails

2026-04-17T03:05:36Z

* tests/mktemp/write-error.sh: New file. * tests/local.mk (all_tests): Add the test.

tests: avoid a failure on musl

2026-04-16T21:20:49Z

* tests/misc/io-errors.sh: Allow a generic error string on musl since the first line is emitted immediately instead of being buffered as expected. Reported by Bruno Haible.

test: avoid false failure on OpenBSD

2026-04-16T20:41:40Z

* tests/numfmt/numfmt.pl: Use standard getopt error map, needed on OpenBSD. Reported by Bruno Haible.

tests: avoid false failure with hidden /proc on Guix

2026-04-16T20:28:44Z

* tests/stat/stat-mount.sh: Don't try our stat under unshare unless mount(8) exits gracefully. Reported by Bruno Haible.

tests: avoid failure on Manjaro Linux

2026-04-16T20:07:46Z

* tests/misc/user.sh: Comment out part of test. Reported by Bruno Haible.

tests: fix false failure due to ulimit usage

2026-04-16T18:03:13Z

* tests/dd/no-allocate.sh: Run getlimits_ to ensure we have $SSIZE_MAX etc. available. Also give some buffer for the configured ulimit to leave space for returns_ to work.

tests: avoid failure on older Centos 7

2026-04-16T17:35:26Z

* tests/cp/sparse-perf.sh: Old Centos 7 can give EINVAL from SEEK_DATA on sparse files being copied from /dev/shm. Avoid this failure as it's not practical to fix.
