This patch breaks time/tst-mktime2 on armv7l-unknown-linux-gnueabihf,
with GCC 7.3:
tst-mktime2.c:70: numeric comparison failure
left: -1 (0xffffffff); from: mktime (lt)
right: 2147483647 (0x7fffffff); from: now
tst-mktime2.c:70: numeric comparison failure
left: -1 (0xffffffff); from: mktime (lt)
right: -2147483648 (0x80000000); from: now
tst-mktime2.c:70: numeric comparison failure
left: -1 (0xffffffff); from: mktime (lt)
right: 2147483646 (0x7ffffffe); from: now
tst-mktime2.c:70: numeric comparison failure
left: -1 (0xffffffff); from: mktime (lt)
right: -2147483647 (0x80000001); from: now
error: 4 test failures
This is after patching the test like this:
65 static void
66 mktime_test1 (time_t now)
67 {
68 struct tm *lt = localtime (&now);
69 TEST_VERIFY_EXIT (lt != NULL);
70 TEST_COMPARE (mktime (lt), now);
71 }
(I will submit the test changes separately.)
Is this the expected new behavior on 32-bit architectures?
Thanks,
Florian
