+# The intention here is to do ONE install of our build into the

+# test.  That way we can promise each test a "clean" install, without
+# having to do the install for each test.
+#
+# In addition, we have to copy some files (which we build) into this
+# root in addition to what glibc installs.  For example, many tests
+# require additional programs including /bin/sh, /bin/true, and
+# /bin/echo, all of which we build below to limit library dependencies
+# to just those things in glibc and language support libraries which
+# we also copy into the into the rootfs.  To determine what language
+# support libraries we need we build a "test" program in either C or
+# (if available) C++ just so we can copy in any shared objects
+# (which we do not build) that GCC-compiled programs depend on.

+/* Running a test in a container is tricky.  There are two main
+   categories of things to do:
+
+   1. "Once" actions, like setting up the container and doing an
+      install into it.
+
+   2. "Per-test" actions, like copying in support files and
+      configuring the container.
+
+
+   "Once" actions:
+
+   * mkdir $buildroot/testroot.pristine/
+   * install into it
+   * rsync to $buildroot/testroot.root/
+
+   "Per-test" actions:
+   * maybe rsync to $buildroot/testroot.root/
+   * copy support files and test binary
+   * chroot/unshare
+   * set up any mounts (like /proc)
+
+   Magic files:
+
+   For test $srcdir/foo/mytest.c we look for $srcdir/foo/mytest.root
+   and, if found...
+
+   * mytest.root/ is rsync'd into container
+   * mytest.root/preclean.req causes fresh rsync (with delete) before
+     test if present
+   * mytest.root/mytset.script has a list of "commands" to run:
+       syntax:
+         # comment
+         mv FILE FILE
+	 cp FILE FILE
+	 rm FILE
+	 FILE must start with $B/, $S/, $I/, $L/, or /
+	  (expands to build dir, source dir, install dir, library dir
+	   (in container), or container's root)
+   * mytest.root/postclean.req causes fresh rsync (with delete) after
+     test if present
+
+   Note that $srcdir/foo/mytest.script may be used instead of a
+   $srcdir/foo/mytest.root/mytest.script in the sysroot template, if
+   there is no other reason for a sysroot.
+
+   Design goals:
+
+   * independent of other packages which may not be installed (like
+     rsync or Docker, or even "cp")
+
+   * Simple, easy to review code (i.e. prefer simple naive code over
+     complex efficient code)
+
+   * The current implementation ist parallel-make-safe, but only in
+     that it uses a lock to prevent parallel access to the testroot.  */
