Hi all, I am running kvm-unit-tests, the Bash(version is low) on my server doesn't support the command 'exec', so I changed some codes in kvm-unit-tests. diff --git a/scripts/functions.bash b/scripts/functions.bash index f13fe6f..241ae0e 100644 --- a/scripts/functions.bash +++ b/scripts/functions.bash @@ -12,9 +12,10 @@ function for_each_unittest() local check local accel - exec {fd}<"$unittests" + #exec {fd}<"$unittests" - while read -u $fd line; do + #while read -u $fd line; do + while read line; do if [[ "$line" =~ ^\[(.*)\]$ ]]; then "$cmd" "$testname" "$groups" "$smp" "$kernel" "$opts" "$arch" "$check" "$accel" testname=${BASH_REMATCH[1]} @@ -40,7 +41,7 @@ function for_each_unittest() elif [[ $line =~ ^accel\ *=\ *(.*)$ ]]; then accel=${BASH_REMATCH[1]} fi - done + done < $unittests "$cmd" "$testname" "$groups" "$smp" "$kernel" "$opts" "$arch" "$check" "$accel" - exec {fd}<&- + #exec {fd}<&- } Then, the even unit test will not be executed because the "file" field of unittests.cfg not parsed correctly.
