    Updated 2003-03-13 08:00
    Published 1997-01-14 08:00
    Product Standard Internationalised System Calls and Libraries Extended (UNIX 95)
    Certification Program The Open Brand certification program
    Test Suite VSU version 4.1.0
    Test Identification base/wait3 11
    Problem Summary TSD4U.00177 This test may fail on implementations where sizeof(EXIT_FAILURE) is larger than eight bits.
    Problem Text
    The test compares the value EXIT_FAILURE with an 8 bit value. It assumes
    that EXIT_FAILURE is in the range 1-255 which is not the case on our
    system. Instead only the lowest 8 bits of EXIT_FAILURE should be compared.
    A correct comparison would be
    WEXITSTATUS(stat_val)!=(EXIT_FAILURE&0377)
    Test Output
    /tset/CAPIbase/fwait3
    SPEC1170TESTSUITE CASE 11
    When the status returned by a call to pid_t wait3(int
    *stat_loc, int options, struct rusage *resource_usage)
    is for a child process that is terminated normally the
    macro WEXITSTATUS( *stat_loc) shall evaluate to the
    lower 8 bits of the exit code that the child passed to
    exit(), _exit() or returned from main().
    PREP: fork() a child that terminates normally
    TEST: wait3
    TEST: WEXITSTATUS() evaluates to exit status
    ERROR: WEXITSTATUS() != exit status. Expected 9990888,Received 6
    FAIL
