[kvm-unit-tests RFC PATCH 00/17] add shellcheck support

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

 



I foolishly promised Andrew I would look into shellcheck, so here
it is.

https://gitlab.com/npiggin/kvm-unit-tests/-/tree/powerpc?ref_type=heads

This is on top of the "v8 migration, powerpc improvements" series. For
now the patches are a bit raw but it does get down to zero[*] shellcheck
warnings while still passing gitlab CI.

[*] Modulo the relatively few cases where they're disabled or
suppressed.

I'd like comments about what should be enabled and disabled? There are
quite a lot of options. Lots of changes don't fix real bugs AFAIKS, so
there's some taste involved.

Could possibly be a couple of bugs, including in s390x specific. Any
review of those to confirm or deny bug is appreciated. I haven't tried
to create reproducers for them.

I added a quick comment on each one whether it looks like a bug or
harmless but I'm not a bash guru so could easily be wrong. I would
possibly pull any real bug fixes to the front of the series and describe
them as proper fix patches, and leave the other style / non-bugfixes in
the brief format.  shellcheck has a very good wiki explaining each issue
so there is not much point in rehashing that in the changelog.

One big thing kept disabled for now is the double-quoting to prevent
globbing and splitting warning that is disabled. That touches a lot of
code and we're very inconsistent about quoting variables today, but it's
not completely trivial because there are quite a lot of places that does
rely on splitting for invoking commands with arguments. That would need
some rework to avoid sprinkling a lot of warning suppressions around.
Possibly consistently using arrays for argument lists would be the best
solution?

Thanks,
Nick
