testHpdPid: problems running on ppc64

testHpdPid: problems running on ppc64

Hello

I was trying to run the testsuite on ppc64 but this particular test
makes every machine I tried reboot. Any thoughts? It's RHEL5 running on
970FX.

Nurdin Premji, I see you wrote this test. Do you have any ideas?

Thanks and regards,

Carlos, outch!

Are you running the test as a normal user or root?  If its as a normal 
user then there's a kernel problem; we can work out where to report it 
on irc :-(  If it is only as root then the test must be erroneously 
killing something it shouldn't.

Andrew

PS: Some things helpful here; disabling the test can be done with:
    if (unresolved(0))
      return;
or:
  ./TestRunner --exclude ...
also, its possible to run each test separately; something like:
   ./TestRunner -n | while read t ; do ./TestRunner $t ; done

Tried both. Same results... :(

Hmm... I'll try a couple more tests.

Thanks,

Ok, hmm:
   ./TestRunner frysk.bindir.TestHpd.testHpdPid
invokes the rough equivalent of:
   ./frysk/bindir/fhpd $$
perhaps try that and:
  ./frysk/bindir/fhpd -console frysk=FINE $$
which will produce large volumes of loging information.

I ran all the test possibilities we discussed on the IRC and I've got
some weird results:

- - Works fine when running the first 92 tests (i.e. ./TestRunner -r 10
`head -n 92 testlist`). Adding one more crashes the system.
- - Works fine running the last 95 tests (i.e. ./TestRunner -r 10 `tail
- -n 95 testlist`). Adding one more crashes the system.

Any ideas?
