Subject: LDAP & Kerberos test woes
Date: Sun, 7 Apr 2024 13:19:01 +0300
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)

While refactoring the Kerberos test module in preparation for adding 
libpq encryption negotiation tests [1], I noticed that if the test 
script die()s during setup, the whole test is marked as SKIPped rather 
than failed. The cleanup END section is missing this trick:

--- a/src/test/kerberos/t/001_auth.pl
+++ b/src/test/kerberos/t/001_auth.pl
@@ -203,7 +203,12 @@ system_or_bail $krb5kdc, '-P', $kdc_pidfile;

  END
  {
+       # take care not to change the script's exit value
+       my $exit_code = $?;
+
         kill 'INT', `cat $kdc_pidfile` if defined($kdc_pidfile) && -f 
$kdc_pidfile;
+
+       $? = $exit_code;
  }

The PostgreSQL::Cluster module got that right, but this test and the 
LdapServer module didn't get the memo.

After fixing that, the ldap tests started failing on my laptop:

[12:45:28.997](0.054s) # setting up LDAP server

That's because I don't have 'slapd' installed. The test script it 
supposed to check for that, and mark the test as SKIPped, but it's not 
really doing that on Linux. Attached patch fixes that, and also makes 
the error message a bit more precise, when the OpenLDAP installation is 
not found.

There's a lot more we could do with that code that tries to find the 
OpenLDAP installation. It should probably be a configure/meson test. 
This patch is just the minimum to keep this working after fixing the END 
block.

1st patch fixes the LDAP setup tests, and 2nd patch fixes the error 
handling in the END blocks.

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Improve check in LDAP test to find the OpenLDAP
 installation

If the OpenLDAP installation directory is not found, set $setup to 0
so that the LDAP tests are skipped. The macOS checks were already
doing that, but the checks on other OS's were not. While we're at it,
improve the error message when the tests are skipped, to specify
whether the OS is supported at all, or if we just didn't find the
installation directory.

This was accidentally "working" without this, i.e. we were skipping
the tests if the OpenLDAP installation was not found, because of a bug
in the LdapServer test module: the END block clobbered the exit code
so if the script die()s before running the first subtest, the whole
test script was marked as SKIPped. The next commit will fix that bug,
but we need to fix the setup code first before we can do that.

These checks should probably go into configure/meson in the long run,
but this is better than nothing and allows fixing the bug in the END
block.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Don't clobber test exit code at cleanup

If the test script die()d before running the first test, the whole test
was interpreted as SKIPped rather than failed. The PostgreSQL::Cluster
module got this right.
