[PATCH] common: suppress "Broken pipe" errors

[Date Prev] [Date Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Date Index] [Thread Index]



It's possible based on a race conditions (and possibly the version of
coreutils which supplies /usr/bin/yes) that commands of the form:

yes | $MKFS_PROG ...

will end up causing the following failure:

shared/298 16s ...	[23:49:03] [23:49:19] - output mismatch (see /results/results-4k/shared/298.out.bad)
    --- tests/shared/298.out	2014-10-31 10:13:04.000000000 -0400
    +++ /results/results-4k/shared/298.out.bad	2014-11-29 23:49:19.118138099 -0500

    (Run 'diff -u tests/shared/298.out /results/results-4k/shared/298.out.bad'  to see the entire diff)

The simplest way to fix this is to redirect the stderr of the yes
command to /dev/null.
