Bug #: 14767
Summary: Dead tests of have-initfini-array in elf/Makefile
Product: glibc
Version: 2.16
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: libc
AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
ReportedBy: jsm28@gcc.gnu.org
CC: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
Classification: Unclassified
elf/Makefile contains code that enables some testcases if
$(have-initfini-array) is "yes". Nothing sets such a variable.
I'd guess from the name that these should nowadays be enabled unconditionally,
but haven't tested this. Note that the tests aren't cross-testing ready (they
have ad hoc testing rules that need $(test-wrapper) added) - that's how I
spotted this issue (noticing the test rules that hadn't been included in the
cross-testing changes, but hadn't resulted in any test failures for
cross-testing either). It's quite possible, if these tests haven't been run
for a long time, that they are bitrotten in other ways as well.
