From cdd61a27fb0af51c84312547165afc94feaee040 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Bj=C3=B6rn=20T=C3=B6pel?= Date: Wed, 5 Jul 2023 13:53:17 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] kselftest/runner.sh: Propagate SIGTERM to runner child MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit [ Upstream commit 9616cb34b08ec86642b162eae75c5a7ca8debe3c ] Timeouts in kselftest are done using the "timeout" command with the "--foreground" option. Without the "foreground" option, it is not possible for a user to cancel the runner using SIGINT, because the signal is not propagated to timeout which is running in a different process group. The "forground" options places the timeout in the same process group as its parent, but only sends the SIGTERM (on timeout) signal to the forked process. Unfortunately, this does not play nice with all kselftests, e.g. "net:fcnal-test.sh", where the child processes will linger because timeout does not send SIGTERM to the group. Some users have noted these hangs [1]. Fix this by nesting the timeout with an additional timeout without the foreground option.
