Reported by: Roman Bogorodskiy <bogorodskiy@gmail.com> Some of the tests for virTimeLocalOffsetFromUTC set an imaginary timezone that attempts to force dyalight savings time active all the time by setting a start date of 0/00:00:00 and end date of 366/23:59:59. Since the day is 0-based, 366 really means "day 367" which will never occur - this was an attempt to eliminate problems with DST not being active in some cases right around midnight on January 1. Even though it didn't completely solve the problem, it didn't seem to cause harm so it was left in the test timezones. Although Linux glibc doesn't mind having a DST end date of 366, FreeBSD refuses to use such timezones, so the tests fail. This patch changes the 366 to 365. This may or may not cause failure of the remaining DST tests around midnight Jan 1. If so, we will need to disable those tests at year's end too.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
