Hey.
I've contacted Rich via IRC to ask about pthread_eintr. Specifically,
what pthread_* functions make syscalls. I asked because I was surprised
to find out most of my tests were for noth. Turns out there are only
about 4 for which I haven't written tests (about 2 written). But then
Rich implied the task itself is low priority with his question about my
will to finish the test. Rich, maybe you meant to imply that I should
start doing tests before I complete the incomplete ones? I'd wish you'd
tell me these things explicitly. Anyway, assuming that is what I should
do, I moved on to the task of adopting autoconf/gnulib tests (btw.
they're both GPL...).
Autoconf has about 4 trivial and/or obsolete tests for the whole of
stdio. I think there's no merit in adopting those. Gnulib, on the other
hand from what I've seen so far seems like it could be useful. Attached
are potential files for adoption from gnulib/tests (see the grep). Other
than that, there's also a certain
gnulib/tests/unistdio/test-u8-printf1.h that seems to test wchar
support. I'm not sure if it's utf-8 specific though. If you think this
may be useful, I can whip up a few replacement functions and include
that file too.
So basically, I'm waiting your ok to start adopting these things into
cluts. In the meanwhile I may finish pthread_eintr and later start
string.c again.
Thanks.
Luka
P.S. No real to-report today, hopefully there'll be one tomorrow.
