profiler_unittest failing always in new ppc64le architecture and frequently in x86 #625

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Take the latest git source 
2. Did autoreconf -f -i, to apply the patches of the new architecture ppc64le 
for the autotools ( config.guess and libtool ) 
3. Build the package as configure/make.
4. The make check has the following test failure in profiler_unittest.sh in 
ppc64le architecture.
5. This test failure is also observed sometimes in x86 architecture as well

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The test results I see

Tests finished with 2 failures

Sometimes, there profiler_unittest testcase fails with 1 failure in 
profiler3_unittest.

Does the nature of this test failures are just characteristics of system loads 
or any functional failures.
If this is any functional failure should there any patches applied.
Can anyone comment about the severity of this test failure?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

The latest source from the git repository (2.2).
The operating system under use is Ubuntu 14.04

Please provide any additional information below.

Hi,

This issue is not severe, it is not an error in the profiler it is a compiler 
error.
With a newer version of GCC it should work. I tried GCC 4.9 and 4.8.3 and this 
test passed multiple times.

Regards,
Raphael
