Glibc-2.29 make check fails


Chapter 6, Glibc-2.29 on make check produces 1 fail I do not recognize- FAIL: nptl/tst-eintr1

There are 18 unsupported. Six of them having to do with math/test-float, I'm assuming I can disregard these? One unsupported on misc/tst-pkey. Four unsupported on nptl/test on printers. One unsupported on nss/tst-nss-test3, and two unsupported on resolv/tst-resolv-ai_idn and resolv/tst-resolv-ai_idn-latin1. I also have 17 XFAIL.

My other fails are listed in the documentation so I disregarded. I realize that I am to expect failures, but I wanted to make sure before continuing. This is my third time going through this, I failed the first two due to user error.

Edit: Upon further reading, I disregard the unsupported, xfails I would expect and nptl/tst shouldn't cause problems down the line. Cheers.

Most checks use the word "skipped" to cover tests that are omitted because they are not appropriate in your system. "Unsupported" means exactly the same thing. xfails are expected failures, so not real errors. Ditto those failures that are listed in the book or in the official logs; they are to be expected in an LFS setting.

Incidentally, there is a link to all the official LFS logs in the Chapter 6 section on testing gcc. It's worth bookmarking this, so that you can check on any errors you find in any package.
