[PATCH] tests: cache glibc version check

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

 



From: Phillip Wood <phillip.wood@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

131b94a10a ("test-lib.sh: Use GLIBC_TUNABLES instead of MALLOC_CHECK_
on glibc >= 2.34", 2022-03-04) introduced a check for the version of
glibc that is in use. This check is performed as part of
setup_malloc_check() which is called at least once for each test. As
the test involves forking `getconf` and `expr` cache the result and
use that within setup_malloc_check() to avoid forking these extra
processes for each test.
