Hi Anatoly,

As per the comment " Since file prefixes are not supported, tests cannot be run in 
parallel"
Does this means we need not run parallel test group test cases for FreeBSD. So 
the total test count for FreeBSD will be based on Non-Parallel test groups only.

No, the tests in the "parallel group" can be run in parallel, but on FreeBSD you cannot run them *in parallel* - that doesn't mean you don't have to run them :) Just ensure that the thread pool size is set to 1 on FreeBSD.


Please confirm / share your views on the same.

Thanks

1. Sanity Script is enhanced with additional test cases being added to
autotest_data.py 2. Fixed in autotest_test_funcs.py to handle test
cases which returns "Skipped" as result.
    The issue was skipped test cases got timed out, causing delay in
sanity script execution.
3. Enhanced support for FreeBSD to add the respective memory limit, as
FreeBSD doesn't support socket-mem, file-prefix options.

A better fix would've been to completely avoid calling __get_cmdline() for 
FreeBSD. Since file prefixes are not supported, tests cannot be run in 
parallel, so there is no need to limit allocated memory in the first place, so 
neither -m nor --socket-mem switches need to be added either.
And without those, there's no need to modify the test cmdline at all.

Also, regarding this - i think what i suggested earlier is slightly incorrect. A better fix would be to simply return cmdline without modifications on FreeBSD. Just because we don't modify cmdline now doesn't mean we wouldn't be doing so in the future, so not calling __get_cmdline is not the best solution.
