From 3c8c638df66d6a77d280a04321aeb18b2ad61338 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthew John Cheetham Date: Fri, 13 Feb 2026 19:55:00 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] t0213: add trace2 cmd_ancestry tests Add a new test script t0213-trace2-ancestry.sh that verifies cmd_ancestry events across all three trace2 output formats (normal, perf, and event). The tests use the "400ancestry" test helper to spawn child processes with controlled trace2 environments. Git alias resolution (which spawns a child git process) creates a predictable multi-level process tree. Filter functions extract cmd_ancestry events from each format, truncating the ancestor list at the outermost "test-tool" so that only the controlled portion of the tree is verified, regardless of the test runner environment. A runtime prerequisite (TRACE2_ANCESTRY) is used to detect whether the platform has a real procinfo implementation; platforms with only the stub are skipped. We must pay attention to an extra ancestor on Windows (MINGW) when running without the bin-wrappers (such as we do in CI). In this situation we see an extra "sh.exe" ancestor after "test-tool.exe". Also update the comment in t0210-trace2-normal.sh to reflect that ancestry testing now has its own dedicated test script.
