The attached patch allows Guix's test suite to pass (and thus, the "guix" package to be built) on systems that lack support for swap devices; that is, systems that not only do not have a swap device enabled but do not have even support for memory paging built into the kernel (e.g. Linux built without CONFIG_SWAP). This might be the case for a small home server, for example, on which the workload is predictable but memory is otherwise at a premium. On these systems the "swapon" and "swapoff" syscalls return ENOSYS ("Function not implemented"). The patch modifies the relevant tests in tests/syscalls.scm to accept this as a valid return value. -- Simon South simon@simonsouth.net
