    Problem Report Number 1443
    Submitter's Classification Test Suite problem
    State Resolved
    Resolution Test Suite Deficiency (TSD)
    Problem Resolution ID TSD.X.0725
    Raised 1970-01-01 08:00
    Updated 2003-03-13 08:00
    Published 1995-12-11 08:00
    Product Standard Internationalised System Calls and Libraries Extended (UNIX 95)
    Certification Program The Open Brand certification program
    Test Suite VSU version 4.0.2
    Test Identification CAPIbase/nftw 24
    Problem Summary TSD4U.00090 The test does not properly test the number of fds used by ftw().
    Problem Text
    Note: Please refer to PG4U.00033.
    Please refer to X/Open Interpretation #1170/155.
    The original request number is req.4.U.00091.

    This waiver has been refused, however, in light of X/Open
    Interpretation 1170/155 we request that it now be granted.


    TEST CASE: ftw

    TEST PURPOSE #1
    A call to int ftw(const char *path, int (*fn)(const
    char *, const struct stat *ptr, int flag), int ndirs)
    shall use at most one file descriptor for each level
    in the file tree.
    PREP: Determine which file descriptors should be used
    TEST: No more than 1 file descriptor used per directory
    ERROR: Too many file descriptors used
    1 FAIL

    also

    TEST CASE: nftw

    TEST PURPOSE #24
    A call to int nftw(const char *path, int (*fn)(const
    char *, const struct stat *, int, struct FTW *), int
    depth, int flags) shall use at most one file
    descriptor for each directory level.
    PREP: Create path
    TEST: No more than 1 file descriptor is used in traversal
    INFO: Call to fn() at ../tmp/data/dirh
    INFO: Call to fn() at ../tmp/data/dirh/dir_left.1
    INFO: Call to fn() at ../tmp/data/dirh/dir_left.1/dir_left.2
    ERROR: expected no more than 3 fds to be used, 4 used

    Both of these tests that the allocation of file descripters are sequential
    numbers. The lowest file descriptor is allocated but since a number may have
    been skipped the method used by the test suite to determine the number of
    file descriptors used is inaccurate. The specification does not require that
    these interfaces compensate for file descripters that may have been used by
    the operating system on the behalf of the process.
