To set up a listening socket usually you call in sequence: - socket; - bind; - listen. If you try to bind() to a port when another socket is already listening on that port, the bind() will fail. However, it is possible that the bind() may succeed and the listen() will fail, as demonstrated in the following sequence: - socket() create socket 1; - bind() to port N on socket 1; - socket() create socket 2; - bind() to port N on socket 2; - listen() on socket 1; - listen() on socket 2 <-- failure. When running tests (especially multiple tests running in parallel), it may sometimes happen that there are other tests already listening on the port that we are trying to use. In this case, we want to ignore this error and simply try to listen on a different port. We already attempted to handle this scenario, but we were only ignoring bind() errors and not listen() errors. So in the scenario mentioned above, the listen() error was causing the entire test to fail instead of allowing us to try to listen on another port.

SPICE: Simple Protocol for Independent Computing Environments
=============================================================
SPICE is a remote display system built for virtual environments which
allows you to view a computing 'desktop' environment not only on the
machine where it is running, but from anywhere on the Internet and
from a wide variety of machine architectures.
Installation
------------
The SPICE package uses GNU autotools, so the build install process
follows the standard process documented in the INSTALL file. As a
quick start you can do
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
--localstatedir=/var --libdir=/usr/lib
make
sudo make install
Or to install into a private user specific location
./configure --prefix=$HOME/spice
make
make install
The following mandatory dependencies are required in order to
build SPICE
Spice protocol >= 0.12.14
Pixman >= 0.17.7
OpenSSL
libjpeg
zlib
The following optional dependencies increase the available
functionality
Cyrus-SASL
libcacard >= 0.1.2 (Smartcard support)
Opus >= 1.0.0 (Opus audio encoding support)
LZ4 (LZ4 compression support)
GStreamer >= 1.0.0
Communication
-------------
To communicate with the development team, or to post patches
there is a technical mailing list:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel
There is also a mailing list for new release announcements:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-announce/
To view known bugs, or report new bugs, in SPICE visit
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/spice/issues/new?
Bugs found when using an OS distribution's binary packages should
be reported to the OS vendors' own bug tracker first.
The latest SPICE code can be found in GIT at:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/
