# This is test driver for a pipe that has no reader. This mimics a usual # real-world scenario, the /dev/xconsole pipe. Some versions of rsyslog # were known to hang or loop on this pipe, thus we added this scenario # as a permanent testcase. For some details, please see bug tracker # http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=186 # # IMPORTANT: we do NOT check any result message set. The whole point in # this test is to verify that we do NOT run into an eternal loop. As such, # the test is "PASS", if rsyslogd terminates. If it does not terminate, we # obviously do not cause "FAIL", but processing will hang, which should be # a good-enough indication of failure. # # added 2010-04-26 by Rgerhards # This file is part of the rsyslog project, released under GPLv3 echo =============================================================================== echo TEST: \[pipe_noreader.sh\]: test for pipe writing without reader # uncomment for debugging support: #export RSYSLOG_DEBUG="debug nostdout noprintmutexaction" #export RSYSLOG_DEBUGLOG="log" source $srcdir/diag.sh init mkfifo ./rsyslog.pipe source $srcdir/diag.sh startup pipe_noreader.conf # we need to emit ~ 128K of data according to bug report source $srcdir/diag.sh tcpflood -m1000 -d500 source $srcdir/diag.sh shutdown-when-empty # shut down rsyslogd when done processing messages source $srcdir/diag.sh wait-shutdown # and wait for it to terminate # NO need to check seqno -- see header comment echo we did not loop, so the test is sucessfull source $srcdir/diag.sh exit
