This was revealed when I made a cut-paste mistake in an upgrade to
virSocketAddrGetRange(), leading to failure to check for the end
address being outside of the defined network, but a negative test case
that should have caught the error instead returned success.
The problem was that testRange in sockettest.c was written so that
when it expected a failure, even an "unexpected success" would be
considered as an "expected failure" because of the way the check in
testRange was done. testRange had this:
if (gotsize < 0 || gotsize != size) {
return pass ? -1 : 0;
} else {
return pass ? 0 : -1;
}
but all the tests that expected a failure give "-1" as the expected
size. So in a case where we expect a failure, we would have pass ==
false and size == -1. If virSocketAddrGetRange() was incorrectly
*successful* (returned some positive number), then "gotsize != size"
would be, e.g. "276 != -1", so we would take the if clause and, since
pass == false, we would return 0 (success i.e. expected failure).
The solution is that in the case where we expect failure, we should
just ignore size - virSocketAddrGetRange() must return -1 in order for
us to report "expected failure == success".

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.
