Date: Fri, 10 Apr 2020 12:02:59 +0200 From: Andrea Righi <andrea.righi@...onical.com> To: Shuah Khan <shuah@...nel.org> Cc: Kees Cook <keescook@...omium.org>, Andy Lutomirski <luto@...capital.net>, Will Drewry <wad@...omium.org>, linux-kselftest@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH] kselftest/runner: allow to properly deliver signals to tests While running seccomp_bpf, kill_after_ptrace() gets stuck if we run it via /usr/bin/timeout (that is the default), until the timeout expires. This is because /usr/bin/timeout is preventing to properly deliver signals to ptrace'd children (SIGSYS in this case). This problem can be easily reproduced by running: $ sudo make TARGETS=seccomp kselftest ... # [ RUN ] TRACE_syscall.skip_a# not ok 1 selftests: seccomp: seccomp_bpf # TIMEOUT The test is hanging at this point until the timeout expires and then it reports the timeout error. Prevent this problem by passing --foreground to /usr/bin/timeout, allowing to properly deliver signals to children processes.
