[llvm-dev] Archive file test problem

[Chris Jackson via llvm-dev]

Hello,

I've come across a potential problem with:

/llvm/tools/lld/test/ELF/archive.s

Line 7: # RUN: llvm-ar rcs %t.a %t2 %t3 %t4

This line is not preceded by a delete of the target archive %t.a.
Therefore, if for some reason this archive is corrupted, perhaps by a
previous test run, then the test will fail.

I suggest that an 'rm -f %t.a' should be added to this and all similar lit
tests calling llvm-ar with the 'r' command line flag. A similar file delete
is used later in the same test before a call to llvm-ar.

I'm not quite sure of the correct way to file a potential bug against a
test in bugzilla. This problem may be present in other lit tests.

regards,


Chris
