    Test Identification CAPIheaders/errno.h 1-36
    Problem Summary PG4U.00056 This test may fail on implementations due to improper initialization.
    Problem Text
    This test may fail on implementations due to improper initialization.

    Assertions 1-36 fail to produce results on our implementation because
    of a segment violation that occurs when running test36. The sigsegv
    occurs because eindex is never initialized in the testcase. Adding
    the following statement eindex=0; after the first tet_infoline()
    allows the testcase to run completely.

    However, another problem with test36 is then found, the source contains
    the following statement:

    /*must be updated if number of values changes in XPG4 or 1170 spec*/
    #define NERRNO 40+35 /*#XPG4 errnos + #1170 errnos*/

    When I count the number in the spec XPG4 V2 XSH, pages 750-751, I get
    76 signal defines. This causes ENODATA never to be checked.
    Test Output
    110|0 /tset/CAPIheaders/herrno/herrno1 11:23:56|Build Start, scenario ref 74-40
    130|0 0 11:23:57|Build End

    TEST PURPOSE #36
    The values defined for errno in errno.h
    shall be distinct, except that the value for EWOULDBLOCK
    may be equal to the value for EAGAIN.
    PREP: Collect all the values
    TEST: Uniqueness
    ERROR: Value for EISCONN (75) equal to value for .
    36 FAIL

    Status Complete
    Review Recommendation No Resolution Given
    Review Response
    We recommend this request be refused.

    Although we agree that eindex is not properly initialized
    it is not clear to us this is causing the reported falures.

    First, output for all tests claimed to be in error is not
    provided. Output is required for all tests before we can
    recommend approval.

    More importantly, the results provided indicate the test FAILed.
    If a SIGSEGV was generated we would expect an UNRESOLVED result.

    Review Type SA Review

    This request is refused.
