From 26d43113a3326c90ec52548a16111fd8ab237bae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Laine Stump Date: Tue, 27 May 2014 16:35:57 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] util: fix virTimeLocalOffsetFromUTC DST processing The original version of virTimeLocalOffsetFromUTC() would fail for certain times of the day if daylight savings time was active. This could most easily be seen by uncommenting the TEST_LOCALOFFSET() cases that include a DST setting. After a lot of experimenting, I found that the way to solve it in almost all test cases is to set tm_isdst = -1 in the struct tm prior to calling mktime(). Once this is done, the correct offset is returned for all test cases at all times except the two hours just after 00:00:00 Jan 1 UTC - during that time, any timezone that is *behind* UTC, and that is supposed to always be in DST will not have DST accounted for in its offset. I believe that the code of virTimeLocalOffsetFromUTC() actually is correct for all cases, but the problem still encountered is due to our inability to come up with a TZ string that properly forces DST to *always* be active. Since a modfication of the (currently fixed) expected result data to account for this would necessarily use the same functions that we're trying to test, I've instead just made the test program conditionally bypass the problematic cases if the current date is either December 31 or January 1. This way we get maximum testing during 363 days of the year, but don't get false failures on Dec 31 and Jan 1. --- src/util/virtime.c | 5 +++- tests/virtimetest.c | 61 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------ 2 files changed, 57 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/util/virtime.c b/src/util/virtime.c index 3a56400fe2..2a91ea5d95 100644 --- a/src/util/virtime.c +++ b/src/util/virtime.c @@ -349,7 +349,7 @@ char *virTimeStringThen(unsigned long long when) * virTimeLocalOffsetFromUTC: * * This function is threadsafe, but is *not* async signal safe (due to - * localtime_r()). + * gmtime_r() and mktime()). * * @offset: pointer to time_t that will be set to the difference * between localtime and UTC in seconds (east of UTC is a @@ -377,6 +377,9 @@ virTimeLocalOffsetFromUTC(long *offset) return -1; } + /* tell mktime to figure out itself whether or not DST is in effect */ + gmtimeinfo.tm_isdst = -1; + /* mktime() also obeys current timezone rules */ if ((utc = mktime(&gmtimeinfo)) == (time_t)-1) { virReportSystemError(errno, "%s", diff --git a/tests/virtimetest.c b/tests/virtimetest.c index bf27682533..749a112269 100644 --- a/tests/virtimetest.c +++ b/tests/virtimetest.c @@ -101,6 +101,28 @@ testTimeLocalOffset(const void *args) return 0; } + +/* return true if the date is Jan 1 or Dec 31 (localtime) */ +static bool +isNearYearEnd(void) +{ + time_t current = time(NULL); + struct tm timeinfo; + + if (current == (time_t)-1) { + VIR_DEBUG("time() failed"); + return false; + } + if (!localtime_r(¤t, &timeinfo)) { + VIR_DEBUG("localtime_r() failed"); + return false; + } + + return (timeinfo.tm_mon == 0 && timeinfo.tm_mday == 1) || + (timeinfo.tm_mon == 11 && timeinfo.tm_mday == 31); +} + + static int mymain(void) { @@ -161,21 +183,44 @@ mymain(void) TEST_LOCALOFFSET("VIR00:30", -30 * 60); TEST_LOCALOFFSET("VIR01:30", -90 * 60); + TEST_LOCALOFFSET("VIR05:00", (-5 * 60) * 60); TEST_LOCALOFFSET("UTC", 0); TEST_LOCALOFFSET("VIR-00:30", 30 * 60); TEST_LOCALOFFSET("VIR-01:30", 90 * 60); -#if __TEST_DST + /* test DST processing with timezones that always * have DST in effect; what's more, cover a zone with * with an unusual DST different than a usual one hour */ - /* NB: These tests fail at certain times of the day, so - * must be disabled until we figure out why - */ - TEST_LOCALOFFSET("VIR-00:30VID,0,365", 90 * 60); - TEST_LOCALOFFSET("VIR-02:30VID,0,365", 210 * 60); - TEST_LOCALOFFSET("VIR-02:30VID-04:30,0,365", 270 * 60); -#endif + TEST_LOCALOFFSET("VIR-00:30VID,0/00:00:00,366/23:59:59", + ((1 * 60) + 30) * 60); + TEST_LOCALOFFSET("VIR-02:30VID,0/00:00:00,366/23:59:59", + ((3 * 60) + 30) * 60); + TEST_LOCALOFFSET("VIR-02:30VID-04:30,0/00:00:00,366/23:59:59", + ((4 * 60) + 30) * 60); + TEST_LOCALOFFSET("VIR-12:00VID-13:00,0/00:00:00,366/23:59:59", + ((13 * 60) + 0) * 60); + + if (!isNearYearEnd()) { + /* experiments have shown that the following tests will fail + * during certain hours of Dec 31 or Jan 1 (depending on the + * TZ setting in the shell running the test, but in general + * for a period that apparently starts at 00:00:00 UTC Jan 1 + * and continues for 1 - 2 hours).
