826627 - NSS cert tests fail, beause Android doesn't have /tmp directory

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(NSS :: Libraries, defect, P2)

Description

[Kai Engert (:KaiE:)]

Test script cert.sh has a hardcoded filename, it attempts to use file /tmp/cert
but there is no /tmp directory on a Android 4.2.x device.

And we shouldn't create files outside our area, the use of a global filename has the risk for a race condition if a machine runs multiple tests in parallel...

Comment 2

[Kai Engert (:KaiE:)]

This is a bustage-level problem. Because I'm trying to run "tinderbox" and "buildbot" driven builds on shared machines, using different user accounts, and stale files stay around, which cannot be overwritten by another user account.

I'll check it in, pending review.
