From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Michael Snyder To: gdb-patches@sources.redhat.com Subject: Why do ^C tests fail on linux? Date: Mon, 04 Jun 2001 13:26:00 -0000 Message-id: <3B1BEED9.29726712@cygnus.com> X-SW-Source: 2001-06/msg00029.html There is a test in pthreads.exp which sends "continue", then sends "^C", to see if it can interrupt the child process. I discovered that it is only passing thru an expect failure, and if you make expect/dejagnu do the right thing, the test fails. Since I know that there is another test in the testsuite that tests the same thing (interrupt.exp), I checked to see if that was also failing, and discovered that it has been xfailed for i*86-pc-linux-gnu since 1996, with no comment to explain why. Does anybody have any idea why this would not be working on linux? Michael
