Subject: RFA: fix 'make -jN check'
Date: Mon, 28 Jul 2008 19:59:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m3fxptaigb.fsf@fleche.redhat.com> (raw)
My patch tester on the compile farm randomly failed to generate test
results.
I believe this is caused by a buglet in gdb/testsuite/Makefile.in.
Because the failure is intermittent, it is somewhat hard to be
completely certain.
I believe what happens is that the just-check target is run before
site.exp is created. I think this is correct because if I remove
site.exp and invoke this target, I see the same sort of failure.
I don't see a reason for just-check, so I fixed this by simply making
'check' invoke runtest. Since check depends on site.exp, this fixes
the bug.
Built and tested on the compile farm (x86-64).
Ok?
Tom
