Subject: [PATCH] test: Skip err.Z_no-w for now
Date: Tue, 8 Jul 2025 00:52:57 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250708045257.13808-1-eugene.loh@oracle.com> (raw)
From: Eugene Loh <eugene.loh@oracle.com>
It is unclear what behavior is desired. For example, consider:
dtrace -Z -n 'BEGIN { exit(0) } foo:bar:baz:bop { raise(SIGUSR1) }'
The first probe exists. The second one will be ignored. Solaris will
reject the script with:
dtrace: description 'BEGIN ' matched 1 probe
dtrace: could not enable tracing: Destructive actions not allowed
On Linux, we have:
dtrace: description 'BEGIN ' matched 1 probe
CPU ID FUNCTION:NAME
0 1 :BEGIN
Perhaps both behaviors have merit. For now, just skip the test to
avoid test failures we are not ready to arbitrate.
