| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In Gnulib, Emacs, etc. we are changing ftp: and http: URLs to use https:, to discourage man-in-the-middle attacks when downloading software. The attached patch propagates these changes upstream to Automake. This patch does not affect files that Automake is downstream of, which I'll patch separately. Althouth the resources are not secret, plain HTTP is vulnerable to malicious routers that tamper with responses from GNU servers, and this sort of thing is all too common when people in some other countries browse US-based websites. See, for example: Aceto G, Botta A, Pescapé A, Awan MF, Ahmad T, Qaisar S. Analyzing internet censorship in Pakistan. RTSI 2016. https://dx.doi.org/10.1109/RTSI.2016.7740626 HTTPS is not a complete solution here, but it can be a significant help. The GNU project regularly serves up code to users, so we should take some care here.

* TAP driver: remove perl implementation (move it into contrib/)Stefano Lattarini2013-12-241-34/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | That implementation was only meant as a standard against which the portable awk+shell implementation was to be measured. Now, since Automake 1.12, the latter implementation is fully functional and already used in the wild, and in fact feature-par with the perl implementation. So the perl implementation is now just slowing down and complicating our testsuite. Let's move it to 'contrib/' (we don't want to remove it, in case someone is actually using it in the wild). * lib/tap-driver.pl: Move it ... * contrib/tap-driver.pl: ... here. While at it, convert quoting `like this' to quoting 'like this', and remove an obsolescent FIXME comment. * lib/Makefile.inc (dist_script_DATA): Drop '%D%/tap-driver.pl'. * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add 'contrib/tap-driver.pl'. * doc/automake.texi: Remove one stray reference to 'tap-driver.pl', and reference 'tap-driver.sh' instead, as intended. * t/ax/am-test-lib.sh ($am_tap_implementation): Delete definition and uses.

* tests: don't risk hanging on the 'cl' requirementStefano Lattarini2013-06-271-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On the GNU/Linux boxes of some users that run our testsuite there is a '/usr/local/bin/cl' executable, from the IRAF package: <http://iraf.noao.edu/> The test 'compile4.sh' (and other tests) try to invoke the 'cl' command to check whether it's a Microsoft compiler; the IRAF cl is an interactive program, so it hangs on such invocation. In conclusion, the testsuite hangs for those users which have the IRAF cl early in PATH. Fix the issue by redirecting the input of cl from /dev/null when invoking it, which is enough to prevent the cl program from IRAF from hanging, and should have no effect on the behaviour of the Microsoft compiler. This change fixes automake bug#14707. * t/ax/am-test-lib.sh (require_tool): Adjust the handling of the 'cl' requirement. Signed-off-by: Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>

| * tests: use append mode to capture parallel make outputStefano Lattarini2013-05-241-14/+41

See also: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2013-05/msg00135.html> The make invocations in the test cases can be forced to run in parallel mode by, e.g., invoking "make check" like this: make check AM_TESTSUITE_MAKE="make -j16" The possible spurious failures hinted above are due to the fact that the redirected output of parallel make can racily lose lines. For example, if GNU make (3.82) is run with -j10 on a Makefile like this: all = 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 default: $(all) $(all): @sleep 0.$$(($RANDOM % 10)); echo $@ and has its standard output redirected in overwrite-mode to a regular file, it looses a line of that output every 15 runs or so on a Fedora 17 system with 64 ppc64 cores. Redirection in append mode does not suffer of this problem, as explained here: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2009-03/msg00073.html> See also previous commits v1.12-63-g45c1fcd of 2012-05-05 (tests: use append mode to capture parallel make output) and Release-1-10-280-g6426999 of 2009-03-10 (Use append mode to capture parallel test output). * t/ax/am-test-lib.sh (run_make): Adjust and enhance. * t/lisp8.sh: Take advantage of the enhancement, nd stop doing output redirection for $MAKE by hand. * t/tap-more.sh: Likewise. * t/parallel-tests-concurrency.sh: Likewise.

| * tests: run_make: options to do command redirectionStefano Lattarini2013-05-221-7/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Let's improve the API of the 'run_make()' helper shell function by adding three new options: -O Save the standard output from make on disk, in a regular file named 'stdout'. -E Save the standard error from make on disk, in a regular file named 'stderr'. -M Save both the standard output and standard error from make on disk, in a regular file named 'output'. This option supersedes both the '-O' and '-E' options. This new API has two main advantages. 1. Its use will allow us to get rid of more cumbersome idioms like, e.g., $MAKE check >stdout && { cat stdout; exit 1; } cat stdout That can now be substituted with a simpler one: run_make -e FAIL -O check 2. More importantly, using the new API we will prevent any extra output from the shell traces of the code in run_make to be redirected along with the make stderr (where that was redirected). This problem was present in usages like, e.g., run_make TESTS=foo.test check 2>stderr && exit 1 grep 'expected error message' stderr Such usages are now to be rewritten as follows: run_make -e FAIL -E TESTS=foo.test check grep 'expected error message' stderr ensuring that 'stderr' won't end up containing unrelated stuff. Note that we do not convert in bulk the old idioms and the use of redirected 'run_make' invocations with this patch. We only convert some occurrences, to ensure that the new implementation of 'run_make' is sound enough. More sweeping conversions will likely be done in follow-up patches. * t/ax/am-test-lib.sh (run_make): Enhance and implement the extended API. * t/tap-xfail-tests.sh: Use the new 'run_make' API. * t/test-driver-cond.sh: Likewise. * t/tests-environment-fd-redirect.sh: Likewise. * t/uninstall-fail.sh: Likewise. * t/yacc-dist-nobuild.sh: Likewise.

| * tests: better idiom to override make macro defs on the cmdlineStefano Lattarini2013-05-221-2/+123
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We now do so with a new wrapper shell function 'run_make()', which relies on the use of AM_MAKEFLAGS, avoiding the use of the '-e' make option. The use of that option (that causes the environment variables to take precedence over the macro definitions in the Makefile) has proved to be quite brittle in the past, causing annoying and sometimes problematic spurious failures. This has worsened in some still unpublished work going on in development branches. It's time to solve the issue once and for all. Note that we do not convert all uses of $MAKE in the testsuite right away; we might do so in follow-up changes, with leisure, to avoid a "patch bomb" effect (this commit is already too much of a bomb itself). What we do in this commit is to get rid of all "$MAKE -e" invocations. We admit that the implementation and feature-set of 'run_make()' are far from perfect, but good enough for our current purposes. We'll improve 'run_make()' if and when the need arises. * syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_no_make_e): New syntax check, guard against the use of "$MAKE -e". (syntax_check_rules): Add it. (sc_tests_overriding_macros_on_cmdline): Adjust. (lint): New, alias for 'maintainer-check', for lazy typists. Idea backported from the 'maint' branch (Automake 1.13a). * t/ax/am-test-lib.sh (run_make): New function. Run $MAKE with the given command-line arguments, handling command-line override of variable definitions in a smart way (using AM_MAKEFLAGS if a non-GNU make implementation is detected to be in use). (useless_vpath_rebuild): Adjust to use 'run_make', to avoid a spurious maintainer check failure. (yl_distcheck): Use 'run_make' rather than bare '$MAKE'. (single_quote, append_single_quoted, is_valid_varname): New auxiliary function, used, directly or indirectly, by it. * Many tests: Adjust to avoid the use of "$MAKE -e", and prefer the use of 'run_make' in few other contexts as well, where it makes sense.

This doesn't interact well with our usage of "set -e" in the testsuite. So far, we've avoided spurious failures by either explicitly ignoring the exit status from unset: unset VAR || : or explicitly ensuring that a variable is set, before trying to unset it: VAR=; unset VAR But we can do better, by aliasing the 'unset' command to a custom function that will take care of these details for us. This will avoid us annoying spurious failures in the future, failures that have already bitten us too much times.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Do so seen when only source files in the "current" directory are present. This commit is part of a series of related changes addressing automake bug#13378 (see also the plan 'PLANS/subdir-objects.txt'). Before this change, Automake-generated C compilation rules mistakenly passed the "-c -o" options combination unconditionally (even to losing compiler) when the 'subdir-objects' was used but sources were only present in the top-level directory. Issue spotted by Nick Bowler: <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=13378#35> <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=13378#44> We fix this by having Automake redefine AC_PROG_CC to take over the role of AM_PROG_CC_C_O and to require the 'compile' script unconditionally (albeit that will continue to be invoked only when inferior compilers are detected). Among other things, this means AM_PROG_CC_C_O explicitly is no longer required; that macro is still supported for backward-compatibility, but calling it is basically a no-op now. This change has some pros and some cons (obviously, we believe the former outweighs the latter). Here are the most relevant ones: + Pros 1: Some logic in the Automake script has been simplified. + Pros 2: That simplification has automatically fixed an actual bug (see Nick's mails referenced above; admittedly, that was present only in corner-case situations, but still); the test 't/ccnoco4.sh', which demonstrated the bug and has been failing so far, now passes. + Pros 3: Things works more "automagically" now (no need to manually add the AM_PROG_CC_C_O macro to configure.ac anymore). * Cons 1: The 'compile' script will be required in all projects using C compilation; this will only be a problem for packages not using '--add-missing'. However, such packages are definitely more rare than the ones using '--add-missing', and adjusting them will be trivial -- just copy the compile script over from the new Automake installation. * Cons 2: The copy & paste of autoconf internals hack this change has introduced in our "rewrite" of AC_PROG_CC is really an egregious abomination. It can only be justified with the fact that we expect future versions of autoconf to implement the semantics we need directly in AC_PROG_CC, so that we'll be able to leverage that (since Automake 1.14 will require the latest Autoconf version released). Now, the detailed list of file-by-file changes ... * automake.in ($seen_cc_c_o): Remove this global variable. (scan_autoconf_traces): Don't set it, and do not trace the 'AM_PROG_CC_C_O' m4 macro. (lang_c_rewrite): Remove, no longer needed. * doc/automake.texi: Adjust expected "autoreconf --install" output in the amhello example. Remove statements about the need for the AM_PROG_CC_C_O macro. Report it is obsolete now. * m4/init.m4: Re-write AC_PROG_CC to append checks about whether the C compiler supports "-c -o" together. These checks have basically been ripped out (with adaptations) from the 'AC_PROG_CC_C_O' macro of Autoconf and ... * m4/minuso.m4 (AM_PROG_CC_C_O): ... this macro of ours, which has thus basically become a no-op. * t/ax/am-test-lib.sh (am_setup_testdir): Also copy the 'compile' script in the test directory; if we don't do so, every test using AC_PROG_CC should call automake with the "--add-missing" option, or copy the 'compile' script itself. * t/cond11.sh: No need to create a dummy 'compile' script: that is already brought in by 'am_setup_testdir()', that is automatically invoked when 'test-lib.sh' is sourced. * t/add-missing.tap: Adjust: we expect the 'compile' script to be required by a mere AC_PROG_CC call now. * t/dist-auxdir-many-subdirs.sh: Likewise. * t/specflg6.sh: Likewise. * t/subobj4.sh: Likewise. * t/cxx-lt-demo.sh: Likewise, and update comments to match. * t/distcom2.sh: Enhance a little. * t/dollarvar2.sh: Adjust. * t/extra-portability.sh: Likewise. * t/libobj19.sh: Likewise. * t/per-target-flags.sh: Likewise. * t/repeated-options.sh: Likewise. * t/subobj.sh: Likewise, and enhance a little. * t/ccnoco2.sh: Remove as obsolete. * t/list-of-tests.mk (handwritten_TESTS): Adjust.

Before this, some Vala-related tests were failing spuriously when the pkg-config program was available but the macros from pkg.m4 were not made explicitly available in ACLOCAL_PATH. These tests were: vala-mix vala-mix2 vala-parallel vala-vapi vala-vpath See also similar commit 'v1.11-581-gb7d67d5' of 2011-12-22, "tests: better handling of gettext and libtool requirements". * t/ax/am-test-lib.sh (process_requirements): If a requirement matches the 'pkg-config*' wildcard, try to make available to it the pkg-config m4 macros, and skip it if it's not possible. This is done by sourcing the 'get.sh' fragment generated by ... * t/pkg-config-macros.sh: ... this new test, which looks in advance for the 'pkg-config' program and the m4 macros that comes with it. * t/list-of-tests.mk: Add the new test. * gen-testsuite-part (%deps_extractor): Tests requiring pkg-config will need the m4 macros coming with it; so these tests should be run after the 'pkg-config-macros.sh' test. Automatically generate proper declarations for such dependencies. * t/vala-header.sh: No need to explicitly check that the macro PKG_CHECK_MODULES has been expanded by autoconf. * t/vala-libs.sh: Likewise. * t/vala-non-recursive-setup.sh: Likewise. * t/vala-per-target-flags.sh: Likewise. * t/vala-recursive-setup.sh: Likewise.

The new '$am_test_protocol' name is clearer, and will allow the easy addition of further test protocols in the future.
