Several of the new socket tests introduced in #6560 are failing on the Mac OS X buildbots. These appear to be due to platform problems rather than anything in the test suite or the new sendmsg/recvmsg code, but it would be good if a developer on Mac OS X could take a closer look at them.
To avoid polluting the buildbot results, the affected tests will be flagged as expected failures when run on Mac OS X (this isn't in the repo yet, but once it is, the tests will be marked with "anticipate_failure" in the test_socket code). |
