Sunday Project test results, gdb, 2002-03-09

[Michael Elizabeth Chastain <mec at shout dot net>]

This was another quiet week.  There was one visible bux fix in gdb
("ptype class Static").  No new gdb bugs or gdb test suite regressions
manifested in any configuration.

I added gdb gdb_5_2-branch to the test matrix.  It has substantially
the same results as gdb HEAD, except that the "ptype class Static" test
still FAILs in the branch.

      target:   native
      host:     i686-pc-linux-gnulibc2.2%rh-7.2
      gdb:      5.1.1, gdb_5_2-branch%20020309, HEAD%20020309
      gcc:      2.95.3, vendor, 3.0.4, gcc-3_1-branch%20020309, HEAD%20020309

      count:    30=1*1*3*5*1*2

    . Notes

      target and host names are gnu triples with extra information after
      a '%' delimiter.

      versions which start with a number are official releases or snapshots.
      versions named "vendor" are the vendor-supplied facility.
      versions named "HEAD" are the cvs HEAD (mainline).
      versions with any other name are cvs branches.
      cvs versions show the pull date after a '%' delimiter.

      gcc releases and snapshots are built with binutils 2.11.2

      gcc cvs versions are built with binutils HEAD with the same pull date.
      Last week, I had a problem with binutils HEAD ld.  It's been fixed.

    . Overview

      gdb 5.1.1:           0 build aborts, 0 test aborts, 400 attention lines
      gdb gdb_5_2-branch:  0 build aborts, 0 test aborts, 337 attention lines
      gdb HEAD:            0 build aborts, 0 test aborts, 336 attention lines

      an attention line is:
	error warning fail kfail unresolved untested unsupported
      an attention line is not:
	pass xpass xfail

    . Old bugs fixed

    . New bugs detected

. Test protocol changes since last report

  I added gdb gdb_5_2-branch.

  I altered my source tree layout.  Some tests report a source file name
  in the test result, so this caused a little noise.

    The last report was 2002-03-02.

    . 5.1.1

      No significant changes.

    . gdb_5_2-branch

      This was the first week for gdb_5_2-branch, so I have no prior results.

      Without prior results, I need a baseline of some sort.
      I prepared a set of tables for gdb_5_2-branch versus gdb HEAD
      without gdb 5.1.1 in the tables (tables not shown).  There is one
      significant difference in "gdb.c++/classes.exp: ptype class Static".
      This test has a FAIL on gdb_5_2-branch and a PASS on gdb HEAD for
      configurations with gcc v2 and stabs+.  Other than that, all test
      results are substantially the same.

      . Gdb Improved

	. gdb.c++/classes.exp: ptype class Static

	  A bug was fixed in gdb for gcc v2 with stabs+.

      . Noise

	. gdb.c++/annota.exp: annotate-quiet

	  This test is not stable.

	. gdb.java/jmisc.exp

	  I moved my source tree.

	. gdb.mi/mi-var-cmd.exp: create local variable func
	. gdb.mi/mi0-var-cmd.exp: create local variable func

	  A test improved to handle gcc v3 output.
