[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] tests: Handle $RANDOM not being supported by the shell
Posted by Peter Maydell 6 years, 9 months ago
In various places in our test makefiles and scripts we use the
shell $RANDOM to create a random number. This is a bash
specific extension, and doesn't work on other shells.
With dash the shell doesn't complain, it just effectively
always evaluates $RANDOM to 0:
  echo $((RANDOM + 32768))     => 32768

However, on NetBSD the shell will complain:
  "-sh: arith: syntax error: "RANDOM + 32768"

which means that "make check" fails.

Switch to using "${RANDOM:-0}" instead of $RANDOM,
which will portably either give us a random number or zero.
This means that on non-bash shells we don't get such
good test coverage via the MALLOC_PERTURB_ setting, but
we were already in that situation for non-bash shells.

Our only other uses of $RANDOM (in tests/qemu-iotests/check
and tests/qemu-iotests/162) are in shell scripts which use
a #!/bin/bash line so they are always run under bash.

This is supported on other shells like ksh (Korn Shell), but still as an
extension.

I will make sure whether this behavior is correct in our sh(1).

This has been altered in NetBSD-current (+ 8.0BETA), sh(1) behaves like
dash.

The question is what your shell does for:

unset foo
echo $(( foo % 255 ))

if it reliably prints 0, then it would do the same when RANDOM is an
undefined (and not a magic) variable.  Presumably, where sh is going
wrong is that it is treating an undefined variable not as 0, but as a
syntax error, and you'd get that behavior regardless of whether RANDOM
is in the mix.

The whitespaces before $${RANDOM:-0} look a bit strange (unusual and unpaired).
Otherwise looks good. (I guess it provides a tiny bit of more readability given
how many non-whitespaces are already there before it.)

Regardlessly:

As mentioned elsewhere, you could reword this to "this is an extension
in bash and some other shells, but not universal".  But I'm also okay
leaving it untouched.

A possible alternative might be putting

    export RANDOM = 4    # chosen by a fair dice roll

into the makefile.

There's another occurence in tests/qemu-iotests/162.
