John Baldwin 1717b68af1 Don't prematurely return short completions on blocking sockets. Always requeue an AIO job at the head of the socket buffer's queue if sosend() or soreceive() returns EWOULDBLOCK on a blocking socket. Previously, requests were only requeued if they returned EWOULDBLOCK and completed no data. Now after a partial completion on a blocking socket the request is queued and the remaining request is retried when the socket is ready. This allows writes larger than the currently available space on a blocking socket to fully complete. Reads on a blocking socket that satifsy the low watermark can still return a short read (same as read()). In order to track previously completed data, the internal 'status' field of the AIO job is used to store the amount of previously computed data. Non-blocking sockets continue to return short completions for both reads and writes. Add a test for a "large" AIO write on a blocking socket that writes twice the socket buffer size to a UNIX domain socket. Sponsored by: Chelsio Communications		2016-05-24 03:13:27 +00:00

src/tests: The FreeBSD test suite
=================================

To run the FreeBSD test suite:
(1)  Make sure that kyua is installed:
       pkg install kyua
(2)  To run the tests:
       kyua test -k /usr/tests/Kyuafile
(3)  To see the test results:
       kyua report  

For further information on using the test suite, read tests(7):
       man tests

Description of FreeBSD test suite
=================================
The build of the test suite is organized in the following manner:

* The build of all test artifacts is protected by the MK_TESTS knob.
  The user can disable these with the WITHOUT_TESTS setting in
  src.conf(5).

* The goal for /usr/tests/ (the installed test programs) is to follow
  the same hierarchy as /usr/src/ wherever possible, which in turn drives
  several of the design decisions described below.  This simplifies the
  discoverability of tests.  We want a mapping such as:

    /usr/src/bin/cp/      -> /usr/tests/bin/cp/
    /usr/src/lib/libc/    -> /usr/tests/lib/libc/
    /usr/src/usr.bin/cut/ -> /usr/tests/usr.bin/cut/
    ... and many more ...

* Test programs for specific utilities and libraries are located next
  to the source code of such programs.  For example, the tests for the
  src/lib/libcrypt/ library live in src/lib/libcrypt/tests/.  The tests/
  subdirectory is optional and should, in general, be avoided.

* The src/tests/ hierarchy (this directory) provides generic test
  infrastructure and glue code to join all test programs together into
  a single test suite definition.

* The src/tests/ hierarchy also includes cross-functional test programs:
  i.e. test programs that cover more than a single utility or library
  and thus don't fit anywhere else in the tree.  Consider this to follow
  the same rationale as src/share/man/: this directory contains generic
  manual pages while the manual pages that are specific to individual
  tools or libraries live next to the source code.

In order to keep the src/tests/ hierarchy decoupled from the actual test
programs being installed --which is a worthy goal because it simplifies
the addition of new test programs and simplifies the maintenance of the
tree-- the top-level Kyuafile does not know which subdirectories may
exist upfront.  Instead, such Kyuafile automatically detects, at
run-time, which */Kyuafile files exist and uses those directly.

Similarly, every directory in src/ that wants to install a Kyuafile to
just recurse into other subdirectories reuses this Kyuafile with
auto-discovery features.  As an example, take a look at src/lib/tests/
whose sole purpose is to install a Kyuafile into /usr/tests/lib/.
The goal in this specific case is for /usr/tests/lib/ to be generated
entirely from src/lib/.
