The new bug has been created (*getconf* wrong value returned for SSIZE_MAX requests). It should be visible through http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6548104 after the scripts sync up the external copies with the internal bug reports. > >Another problem: >The ksh93 testsuite has a special test script >(usr/src/lib/libshell/common/tests/sun_solaris_getconf.sh) to make sure >Solaris /usr/bin/getconf and ksh93's "getconf" builtin are compatible, >however currenly the test will fail for "SSIZE_MAX" because there is a >difference in the returned values. >Can I get an "exception" from you (I guess you have the authority for >this since you're Sun's standards guru... :-) ) to modify >"sun_solaris_getconf.sh" and filter the SSIZE_MAX test for now, please >(otherwise "sun_solaris_getconf.sh" fails and blows-up the whole test >run... ;-( ) ? I would prefer to just note that the test is failing due to the bug in /usr/bin/getconf noted in CR 6548104. If this bug isn't fixed by the time you're ready to putback into ON, let me know and I'll either get management to be sure that 6548104 gets fixed no later than when you putback, or grant a waiver at that time.
