Comment 7 Anthony Basile gentoo-dev 2015-04-21 16:28:48 UTC
The failure is in src/utils.c, in test_dir_matches_p(void), line 2528:

  { { "*COMPLETE", NULL, NULL }, "foo/!COMPLETE", false }

and 2539:

  bool res = dir_matches_p (test_array[i].dirlist, test_array[i].dir);

which checks test_array[i].dirlist = { "*COMPLETE", NULL, NULL } for an instance of test_array[i].dir = "foo/!COMPLETE" and expects a false return but gets true.  This is because of the line 975 which reads:

  if (matcher (p, dir, FNM_PATHNAME) == 0)

where matcher is set to either fnmatch or fnmatch_nocase.  Reducing the code down we have the following test code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <fnmatch.h>

int main() {
	int res = fnmatch("*COMPLETE", "foo/!COMPLETE", FNM_PATHNAME);
	printf("res = %d\n", res);
}

On glibc this returns "res = 1" whereas on uclibc this returns "res = 0".  This was tested on uclibc-0.9.33.9999. which is the head of the 0.3.33 branch.

According to http://pubs.opengroup.org/stage7tc1/functions/fnmatch.html , glibc is correct because it returns a non-match when options contains FNM_PATHNAME and slash is not in both strings. So this is a bug in uclibc­.
Comment 9 René Rhéaume 2015-06-13 09:26:55 UTC
After doing a quick search with "uclibc" as the search term, this bug looks like a duplicate of bug #181275 , an old bug indeed.
