This directory contains scripts that are used for identifying the
|
|
patch that introduced a regression. General information about such
|
|
searches is covered in http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs/reghunt.html.
|
|
|
|
reg_search searches for a small time interval within a range of
|
|
dates in which results for a test changed, using a binary search.
|
|
The functionality for getting sources, building the component to
|
|
test, and running the test are in other scripts that are run from
|
|
here.
|
|
|
|
reg_periodic invokes separate tools (the same scripts invoked by
|
|
reg_search) over a range of dates at specified intervals.
|
|
|
|
reg_test_template shows the format for the script that runs a test
|
|
and determines whether to continue the search with a later or
|
|
earlier date.
