Hi, This is an engineer from Intel. I have some issues about lsb testing on my linux OS. I mailed to Andrew, Josey and I have some updates now.
Andrew, I cc this mail to you and hope you have some new ideas. I downloaded the latest version of LSB Test suits and the situation keeps mad, :( So I still have the two questions. I paste the original mail content here: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------ Hi, Andrew, I am an engineer from Intel Corporation. My group members are now developing a Linux project and we applied some patches on the kernel. We want to have a LSB compliance testing on our Linux platform to ensure we follow the stardard of Linux and I am the owner of LSB compliace validation of our platform. I use LSB 1.1.9(say, lsb-runtime-test-1.1.9-1.i386.rpm) test suites and I got some failures. I use different built kernels to have failed cases tested so that I can locate the failure. So I have some questions about it and I am very eagar to have your great help: 1. I noticed that LSB test suites use the TETWare and it uses loopback_disk.ext2. My question is: Does that mean LSB test can be ran on any file systems, at least, ext3 filesys, since it will chroot to the looped file system with type ext2? I ask this because sometimes the system crashed and I really want to bypass the boring filesystem checking process in the rebooting process and you know, ext3 is just fine for this. 2. Since some cases failed and I want to find the reason, I need to change the sequence of the cases in the file scen.exec. Say, delete the success cases and let alone the failed ones. So my question is: Can I do it? I mean I did modify the scen.exec file but I was not sure about whether there exists some dependencies of the cases. Any suggestion about LSB Compliance Testing? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------ Best Regards, Fei, Fei Software Engineer Intel China Software Lab Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: 086-21-52574545-1296 -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Josey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 2002?8?27? 17:20 To: Fei, Fei; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: LSB test suites questions hi You are running an out of date version of the test suites.
