    Problem Summary fseek 3, fseeko 17, lseek 2 tests fail for same reason as in UNIX98,
    equivalent PIN should be issued.
    Problem Text These assertions fail for the same reasons as in UNIX98, a similar
    PIN should be issued.
    Test Output
    ****************************************************************************************************************
    /tset/LFS.os/ioprim/lseek/T.lseek 2 Failed

    Test Description:
    When the file position requested by a seek operation would be
    larger
    than the value that can be contained in an entity of type off_t,
    then
    a call to lseek() returns -1, sets errno to EOVERFLOW and the
    file
    pointer is unchanged.

    Test Strategy:
    SEEK to offset 1, using lseek()
    CALL lseek(fd, LFS_NORMAL_OFFMAX, SEEK_CUR)
    VERIFY that lseek() returned -1 and set errno to EOVERFLOW

    Test Information:
    lseek() set errno to 22 (EINVAL), expected 79 (EOVERFLOW)


    ****************************************************************************************************************


    ****************************************************************************************************************
    /tset/LFS.os/streamio/fseek/T.fseek 3 Failed

    Test Description:
    When a call to fseek() attempts to set the file pointer to a
    position
    which cannot be represented in a value of type long, then the
    call
    returns -1 and sets errno to EOVERFLOW.

    Test Strategy:
    OPEN a file
    FSEEK to offset 1
    CALL fseek(fp, LONG_MAX, SEEK_CUR)
    VERIFY that fseek() returned -1 and set errno to EOVERFLOW

    Test Information:
    fseek() set errno to 22 (EINVAL), expected 79 (EOVERFLOW)


    ****************************************************************************************************************



    ****************************************************************************************************************
    /tset/LFS.os/streamio/fseeko/T.fseeko 17 Failed

    Test Description:
    When a call to fseeko() attempts to set the file pointer to a
    position
    which cannot be represented in a value of type off_t, then the
    call
    returns -1 and sets errno to EOVERFLOW.

    Test Strategy:
    OPEN a file
    SEEK to offset 1, using fseeko()
    CALL fseeko(fp, LFS_NORMAL_OFFMAX, SEEK_CUR)
    VERIFY that fseeko() returned -1 and set errno to EOVERFLOW

    Test Information:
    fseeko() set errno to 22 (EINVAL), expected 79 (EOVERFLOW)

    Review Recommendation Test Suite Deficiency (TSD)
    Review Response I agree that the issue for which PIN.X.0225 was granted for UNIX98 still
    exists for UNIX03. However, granting a new PIN may not be the best way
    to resolve it.

    Since EINVAL is only a valid alternative error under certain
    circumstances, the test could be modified to check for those
    circumstances and give a PASS or FAIL result accordingly. In which case
    a TSD should be issued and this change made in the next test suite release.

    Review Resolution Test Suite Deficiency (TSD)
    Review Conclusion The issue for which PIN.X.0225 was granted for UNIX98 still exists for
    UNIX03. However a modification to the test to reflect the new behavior
    has been identified for the next release. A test suite deficiency is
    therefore appropriate in the interim.
