Having better tests on ppc64 is nice.
I quickly looked at the patches. Only one remark: adding new .exp files
is not the preferred approach, as these different .exp files implies a
heavier maintenance that e.g. modifying a filter_xxxxxxx to ensure
the output is the same on all platforms.
Maybe some of these ppc64 specific .exp can be avoided/removed
by enhancing the filters ?
For info, I have setup a nightly regression test on gcc112.
The results of last night are:
== 585 tests, 6 stderr failures, 0 stdout failures, 0 stderrB failures, 1 stdoutB failure, 2 post failures ==
gdbserver_tests/hgtls (stdoutB)
memcheck/tests/badjump2 (stderr)
memcheck/tests/leak_cpp_interior (stderr)
memcheck/tests/overlap (stderr)
memcheck/tests/supp_unknown (stderr)
massif/tests/big-alloc (post)
massif/tests/deep-D (post)
helgrind/tests/tc06_two_races_xml (stderr)
drd/tests/pth_create_chain (stderr)
The results are not (yet?) reaching valgrind-testresults, due to
mail setup problems.
Julian,
I suspect that the results are not reaching
the result mailing list, because gcc112 puts
phi...@gc...
as mail originator. I could not configure my email address as
originator on this system. Support request was filed to gcc compile
farm admin but no feedback yet since more than a week.
To solve that, would it be possible to add this email address to
the 'authorised users' of valgrind-testresults
but configuring it so that the posts are not sent to this
address. In other words, the mailing list should accept
mails from this address, but should not send the posts to
that address.
Thanks
Philippe
