Subject: tests: avoid intermittent false failures with ksh
X-Git-Tag: v9.11~20
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bc79ba83ac1fde8fed614c526bb32ae5413797c1;p=thirdparty%2Fcoreutils.git

tests: avoid intermittent false failures with ksh

As noted in https://bugs.gnu.org/9089
ksh gives intermittent ECONNRESET errors with closed pipes.
This can be seen reliably on Linux with:
ksh -c 'yes | (sleep .1; head -n10 >/dev/null)'

* tests/misc/io-errors.sh: Avoid part of test on ksh.
* tests/misc/write-errors.sh: Likewise.
