[LLVMdev] FYI: As of r159525, the LLVM test suite no longer uses tclsh-style quoting!
And there was much rejoicing, but probably also some pain. I've gotten the builds green (after some minor snafus) on Linux and Mac, and I think Windows should be fine (forcing the internal lit test runner passes on Linux). This has sped up test runs by about 33% on many-core Linux builds. =] However, for folks who maintain an out-of-tree regression test suite who were previously relying on the TCL/SH-style rules for interpreting the RUN-lines of the suite, there may be some issues updating to cope with this. Below is the tale of terrible tricks I used to update LLVM's test suite. This should get well over 90% (close to 95% for me) of the conversion, and the rest is fairly easy to do by hand. The first step is to build a list of test files containing 'RUN:' lines. You can use 'grep' or your favorite tool for this. Let's put that list in "tests.txt". I'm going to assume you have a modern zsh or bash-like shell for the rest: # First, remove a layer of TCL escaping: perl -i -pe 's:\\([\\<>\[\]*\$]):\1:g if /.*RUN:\s*(|.*(grep|sed|echo) [^{\047"|]*){/' $(cat tests.txt) # Next hide escaped open and close curlies behind sigils perl -i -pe 's:\\{:##_OPEN_CURLY_##:g if /.*RUN:\s*(|.*(grep|sed|echo) [^{\047"|]*){/' $(cat tests.txt) perl -i -pe 's:\\}:##_CLOSE_CURLY_##:g if /.*RUN:\s*(|.*(grep|sed|echo) [^{\047"|]*){/' $(cat tests.txt) # This is a good point to checkpoint in git. # You may want to rewind to here if you hit issues. # Next up, we iteratively chomp through the TCL-style quotes # Run this command repeatedly, checkpointing in your local git # When running it produces no further edits, you're done perl -i -pe 's!(.*RUN:\s*(|.*(grep|sed|echo) [^{\047"|]*)){(([^{}]|{[^{}]*})*)}!\1"\4"!' $(cat tests.txt) # Now switch the sigils back to curlies. perl -i -pe 's:##_OPEN_CURLY_##:{:g' $(cat tests.txt) perl -i -pe 's:##_CLOSE_CURLY_##:}:g' $(cat tests.txt) Note that I have not tested these commands terribly thoroughly, and edited them in writing the email. ;] Use at your own risk! Also, feel free to ping me on IRC if you need help converting something tricky. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
