Attach to test in container from debugglibc.sh
Some test cases are meant to be ran inside the container infrastructure and make check automatically runs them as such. However, running a single test case in a container without make check is useful. This patch adds a new --tool option to testrun.sh that makes this easy, as well as it adds a new option (-c or --in-container) to debugglibc.sh, which causes the program under test to be ran in a container (with WAIT_FOR_DEBUGGER=1), then automatically attaches GDB to it. Automatically detecting if a test case is supposed to be ran inside a container is harder (if not impossible), as Carlos pointed out [1], however, this patch makes it easier to do it manually: Using testrun.sh with containerized test: $ ./testrun.sh --tool=container /absolute/path/to/program Using debugglibc.sh with containerized test: $ ./debugglibc.sh -c /absolute/path/to/program Note: running these commands with relative paths causes error and warning messages to be displayed, although the test case might succeed. For example, with relative path: $ ./testrun.sh --tool=container elf/tst-ldconfig-bad-aux-cache error: subprocess failed: execv error: unexpected error output from subprocess /sbin/ldconfig: Warning: ignoring configuration file that cannot be opened: /etc/ld.so.conf: No such file or directory info: f 0 1064 /var/cache/ldconfig/aux-cache 20 aux-cache [...] Whereas with absolute paths, the errors and warnings are gone: $ ./testrun.sh --tool=container $PWD/elf/tst-ldconfig-bad-aux-cache info: f 0 1064 /var/cache/ldconfig/aux-cache 20 aux-cache [...] [1] https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2019-11/msg00873.html Reviewed-by:Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>
