``uptime``: Support files in uptime by AnirbanHalder654322 · Pull Request #6400 · uutils/coreutils

AnirbanHalder654322 · 2024-05-14T12:58:56Z

Edit1 : I strace-d the whole thing , we seem to use more than 2x amount of read sys calls (will result in more than 100 extra read calls for very large iterations)compared to GNU uptime, which i believe is due to iter_all_records_from function in uucore::src::lib::features::utmpx

Skipping an intermittent issue tests/tail/inotify-dir-recreate (passes in this run but fails in the 'main' branch)

GNU testsuite comparison:

GNU test failed: tests/timeout/timeout. tests/timeout/timeout is passing on 'main'. Maybe you have to rebase?

… failing for macos

…on on error

… in testing

Changes since last push:

The test test_uptime::test_uptime_for_file_without_utmpx_records has been disabled for freebsd , our uucore::utmpx module uses utmpxname() sys call to set the file from which we iterate through, freebsd uses different sets of syscall which function somewhat similarly yet have differences. Comments have been added to the tests which may pass the CI but they don't function as intended.

The failing CI tests are unrelated to my PR.

Congrats! The gnu test tests/timeout/timeout is no longer failing!

Changes since last push:

Removed quick_error in favor of thiserror
Added some documentation on the added dependencies.
The clippy error seems to be unrelated to my pr

thanks!

If utmpx BOOT_TIME is unavailable, derive boot time via sysctl CTL_KERN.KERN_BOOTTIME to reduce intermittent macOS failures (e.g., uutils#3621). Context (blame/history): - 2774274 ("uptime: Support files in uptime (uutils#6400)"): added macOS utmpxname validation and non-fatal 'unknown uptime' fallback with tests (tests/by-util/test_uptime.rs). - 920d29f ("uptime: add support for OpenBSD using utmp"): reorganized uptime.rs and solidified utmp/utmpx-driven paths.

* fix(uucore): use sysctl kern.boottime on macOS as fallback for uptime If utmpx BOOT_TIME is unavailable, derive boot time via sysctl CTL_KERN.KERN_BOOTTIME to reduce intermittent macOS failures (e.g., #3621). Context (blame/history): - 2774274 ("uptime: Support files in uptime (#6400)"): added macOS utmpxname validation and non-fatal 'unknown uptime' fallback with tests (tests/by-util/test_uptime.rs). - 920d29f ("uptime: add support for OpenBSD using utmp"): reorganized uptime.rs and solidified utmp/utmpx-driven paths. * test: add comprehensive macOS tests for sysctl kern.boottime fallback Add unit tests for sysctl boottime availability and get_uptime reliability on macOS, verifying the fallback mechanism works correctly when utmpx BOOT_TIME is unavailable. Add integration tests to ensure uptime command consistently succeeds on macOS with various flags (default, --since) and produces properly formatted output. Enhance documentation of the sysctl fallback code with detailed comments explaining why it exists, the issue it addresses (#3621), and comprehensive SAFETY comments for the unsafe sysctl call. All tests are properly gated with #[cfg(target_os = "macos")] to ensure they only run on macOS and don't interfere with other platforms. * refactor(uucore): replace unsafe sysctl with safe command-line approach for macOS boot time - Remove unsafe libc::sysctl() system call entirely - Replace with safe std::process::Command executing 'sysctl -n kern.boottime' - Parse sysctl output format to extract boot time seconds - Maintains same API and functionality while eliminating unsafe blocks - Addresses reviewer feedback to completely remove unsafe code
