Hi, I'm seeing various test suite failures in the 0.158 on various arches. I'm currently looing at powerpc since that's the only Debian release architecture that's having the problem, but I see it on various non-release arches too. The test-suite.log file contains: ========================================== elfutils 0.158: tests/test-suite.log ========================================== # TOTAL: 113 # PASS: 108 # SKIP: 3 # XFAIL: 0 # FAIL: 2 # XPASS: 0 # ERROR: 0 .. contents:: :depth: 2 FAIL: run-backtrace-native.sh ============================= 0x100000 0x103000 [vdso: 14111] 0x20474000 0x20601000 /lib/powerpc-linux-gnu/libc-2.18.so 0x20614000 0x2063d000 /lib/powerpc-linux-gnu/libpthread-2.18.so 0x2064f000 0x20662000 /home/kroeckx/elfutils-0.158/tests/backtrace-child 0x40000000 0x40033000 /lib/powerpc-linux-gnu/ld-2.18.so TID 14111: # 0 0x20626810 raise TID 14112: # 0 0x20626810 raise /home/kroeckx/elfutils-0.158/tests/backtrace: dwfl_thread_getframes: No DWARF information found /home/kroeckx/elfutils-0.158/tests/backtrace: dwfl_thread_getframes: No DWARF information found backtrace: backtrace.c:68: callback_verify: Assertion `seen_main' failed. ./test-subr.sh: line 84: 14110 Aborted (core dumped) LD_LIBRARY_PATH="${built_library_path}${LD_LIBRARY_PATH:+:}$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" $VALGRIND_CMD "$@" backtrace-child: no main SKIP: run-backtrace-data.sh =========================== /home/kroeckx/elfutils-0.158/tests/backtrace-data: Unwinding not supported for this architecture data: arch not supported FAIL: run-backtrace-dwarf.sh ============================ 0xfdf8e08 raise /home/kroeckx/elfutils-0.158/tests/backtrace-dwarf: dwfl_thread_getframes: No DWARF information found dwarf: no main rmdir: failed to remove 'test-14137': Directory not empty SKIP: run-backtrace-native-biarch.sh ==================================== SKIP: run-backtrace-native-core-biarch.sh ========================================= It seems that for --backtrace-exec it thinks it has support for unwinding information even when it doesn't and then fails.
