Subject: Re: [RFA] Some testcases for long long bitfields
Date: Thu, 11 Nov 2004 20:09:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4193C69E.9050403@gnu.org> (raw)

Here we go :-)

- which system was it tested on?

- loose this:
> +# Please email any bugs, comments, and/or additions to this file to:
> +# bug-gdb@prep.ai.mit.edu

- reword the tests from:
> "bitfield uniqueness (u1)"
to something like:
	bitfield uniqueness; flags.u1 = 1
so that what's being tested is clearer and the names are unique.

- on similar lines, take the gdb.sum file  from running this testand put 
it through 'uniq -d' s.fixing any duplicate

- use gdb_test_multiple

- Why?  Or is this really a known bug?

> +	setup_xfail "*-*-*"
> +    }

- ditto?

> +	setup_xfail "*-*-*"
> +    }
> +    if [gdb_test "print flags" "u1 = 0, u2 = 4294967296, u3 = 0, s1 = 0, s2 = -1, s3 = 0.*" "long long bitfield values after set negative"] {

- delete this:

> +    # Restart because IDT/SIM runs out of file descriptors.
> +    gdb_exit
> +    gdb_start
> +    gdb_reinitialize_dir $srcdir/$subdir
> +    gdb_load ${binfile}
> +}

- for all these:
+    if { ! [runto break5] } {
+	gdb_suppress_tests
+    }
perhaphs think about what I did for the sig*.exp tests - have main as a 
loop so that it looped around after each test sequence was finished - 
will on remote systems improve the performance somewhat.  But what ever.

Once all this are addressed, post the update _along_ with the system 
tested on, and then it can be committed.
