The 9.21 test framework has an additional requirement on CMocka, from
README.md
Unit tests are implemented using the CMocka unit testing framework.
To build
them, use the option `-Dcmocka=enabled`. Execution of unit tests is
done by the
meson's test functionality; run by `meson test`.
I've not looked at CMocka requirements as yet. So currently I've not
been able to run the full testing as I have been doing with 9.18 work,
and more recently with 9.20
I went ahead and compiled and installed cmocka on a virtual build
machine.
When BIND 9.21 is compiled cmocka is detected and enabled
(meson_options.txt has cmocka as feature as "auto"). All the provided
tests execute and pass; some fail intermittently due to timeouts, but
then I am running within a VM so I believe the issues are simply timing
related - will test further.
For production does the cmocka option need to be disabled,
`-Dcmocka=disabled`?
A cursory look suggests it is only used within the test code.
I note that README.md suggests the option needs to be enabled to run the
tests, so want to clarify;
Perhaps it's this way for the development version (odd number).
I shall go look over the cmocka docs as well.
Thanks
