    Problem Text
    This test may fail on slower IUTs when _SC_OPEN_MAX is very large.

    We believe this is a test suite deficiency.

    These two testcase fail on our platform because of a timeout.
    After all file descriptors have been consumed SET_ALARM(WAIT_FOR_TIME)
    is set. Then the final socket call is made (or socketpair()). And,
    finally, a loop is entered in which all the files that were created
    are now closed. After all files are closed the return value is
    checked and then the errno value. On our implementation,
    SET_ALARM(WAIT_FOR_TIME) is not enough time for all of the file
    descriptors to be closed, after the final socket call. Our
    OPEN_MAX value is 12500. When I increase the WAIT_FOR_TIME by a
    multiple both testcases pass. The time to wait should be a
    configurable value to allow for a large number of file descriptors.
    Test Output
    Testcases: CAPIsockets/fsocket #7
    CAPIsockets/fsocketpair #6

    TEST CASE: socket

    TEST PURPOSE #7
    If the implementation supports a communications domain
    and a socket type:
    EMFILE in errno and return -1 on a call to int
    socket(int domain, int type, int protocol) when no
    more file descriptors are available for the process.
    PREP: Determine OPEN_MAX
    TEST: AF_INET SOCK_STREAM
    PREP: Consume all available file descriptors
    TEST: Create socket
    TEST: Return value
    TEST: errno value
    ERROR: Timed out waiting for completion.
    7 UNRESOLVED

    TEST CASE: socketpair

    TEST PURPOSE #6
    If the implementation supports a communications domain
    and a connection-oriented socket type:
    EMFILE in errno and return -1 on a call to int
    socketpair(int domain, int type, int protocol, int
    socket_vector[2]) when no more file descriptors are
    available for the process.
    PREP: Determine OPEN_MAX
    TEST: AF_INET SOCK_STREAM
    PREP: Consume all available file descriptors
    TEST: Create socket pair
    TEST: Return value
    TEST: errno value
