From 5593489d9c3ce22b1942f35c7ebb0e06fcf2bfa8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thiago Jung Bauermann Date: Fri, 10 Jun 2022 12:39:18 -0300 Subject: t/spawn: Find invalid PID to try to join its process group In the container used to build packages of the GNU Guix distribution, PID 1 runs as the same user as the test so this spawn that should fail actually succeeds. Fix the problem by going through different PIDs and picking one that either doesn't exist or we aren't allowed to signal. --- t/spawn.t | 13 ++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 't') diff --git a/t/spawn.t b/t/spawn.t index 6168c1f6..5fc99a2a 100644 --- a/t/spawn.t +++ b/t/spawn.t @@ -24,7 +24,18 @@ SKIP: { is(waitpid($pid, 0), $pid, 'waitpid succeeds on spawned process'); is($?, 0, 'true exited successfully'); pipe(my ($r, $w)) or BAIL_OUT; - $pid = eval { spawn(['true'], undef, { pgid => 1, 2 => $w }) }; + + # Find invalid PID to try to join its process group. + my $wrong_pgid = 1; + for (my $i=0x7fffffff; $i >= 2; $i--) { + if (kill(0, $i) == 0) { + $wrong_pgid = $i; + last; + } + } + + # Test spawn behavior when it can't join the requested process group. + $pid = eval { spawn(['true'], undef, { pgid => $wrong_pgid, 2 => $w }) }; close $w; my $err = do { local $/; <$r> }; # diag "$err ($@)"; -- cgit v1.2.3-24-ge0c7
