--skip-not-found switch tells mtr to skip not found tests instead of aborting.
But it failed to skip the test if the suite name was not found.
This problem also made the *last-N-failed builbot builders fail
to run `mtr --skip-not-found` if the last commit removed a file in
the mysql-test/include/ directory.
This commit fixes it, now the not found test is properly skipped,
no matter what component of the test name was not found:
$ ./mtr main.foo --skip-not-found foo.main
...
==============================================================================
TEST WORKER RESULT TIME (ms) or COMMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
foo.main [ skipped ] not found
main.foo [ skipped ] not found
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
With the result like
encryption.innochecksum 'debug' [ skipped ] combination not found
instead of
*** ERROR: Could not run encryption.innochecksum with 'debug' combination(s)
New mtr option --skip-not-found makes it to show not found tests
as skipped
main.a [ skipped ] not found
(but only if the test was specified with the suite name)
and not error out early with
mysql-test-run: *** ERROR: Could not find 'a' in 'main' suite
This is useful in buildbot, on builders that generate the list
of tests dynamically.
Windows C runtime does not implement line buffering mode for stdio.
This sometimes makes output from different tests interleaved in MTR
MTR relies on this buffering (lines won't output until "\n") to correctly
work in parallel scenarios.
Implement do-it-yourself line buffering on Windows, to workaround.
otherwise, e.g.
./mtr main.mysql_install_db_win_admin,innodb
results in sporadic
mysql-test-run: *** ERROR: Could not run main.mysql_install_db_win_admin with 'innodb' combination(s)
depending on whether it'll process the skip (not windows admin)
or the innodb.combinations first (if skip is processed first,
innodb combination wasn't, making the further code think that the test
doesn't have innodb combination)
MSYS2 is basically Cygwin, except it has more easy installation (but
with tools which are not used) and it has some more control of path
conversion via MSYS2_ARG_CONV_EXCL and MSYS2_ENV_CONV_EXCL. So it
should be more Windows-friendly than Cygwin.
Installation
Similar to Cygwin, except installing patch requires additional command
run from shell:
pacman -S patch
MSYS2 still doesn't work as it returns wierd "Bad address" when
exec-ing forked process from create_process(). Same exec from
standalone perl -e runs just fine... :(
Cygwin is more Unix-oriented. It does not treat \n as \r\n in regexps
(fixed by \R), it supplies Unix-style paths (fixed by
mixed_path()). It does some cleanup on paths when running exe, so it
will be different in exe output (like with $exe_mysqld, comparing
basename() is enough).
Cygwin installation
1. Just install latest perl version (only base package) and
patchutils from cygwin-setup;
2. Don't forget to add c:\cygwin64\bin into system path
before any other perl flavors;
3. There is path-style conflict (see below), you must replace
c:\cygwin64\bin\sh.exe with the wrapper. Run MTR with
--cygwin-subshell-fix=do for that. Make sure you are running Cygwin
perl for the option to work.
4. Restart buildbot via net stop buildbot; net start buildbot
Path-style conflict of Cygwin-ish Perl
Some exe paths are passed to mysqltest which are executed by a native
call. This requires native-style paths (\-style). These exe paths also
executed by Perl itself. Either by MTR itself which is not so
critical, but also by tests' --perl blocks which is impossible to
change. And if Perl detects shell-expansion or uses pipe command it
passess this exe path to /bin/sh which is Cygwin-compiled bash that
cannot work with \-style (or at least in -c processing). Thus we require
\-style on some parts of MTR execution and /-style on another parts.
The examples of tests which cover these different parts are:
main.mysqlbinlog_row_compressed \
main.sp_trans_log
That could be great to force Perl to use something different from
/bin/sh, but unfortunately /bin/sh is compiled-in into binary. So the
only solution left is to overwrite /bin/sh with some wrapper script
which passes the command to cmd.exe instead of bash.
See "Path-style conflict" in "MDEV-30836 MTR Cygwin fix" for explanation.
To install subshell fix use --cygwin-subshell-fix=do
To uninstall use --cygwin-subshell-fix=remove
This works only from Cygwin environment. As long as perl on PATH is
from Cygwin you are on Cygwin environment. Check it with
perl --version
This is perl 5, version 36, subversion 1 (v5.36.1) built for
