Mark Miller commented on SOLR-6254:
-----------------------------------
Yeah, I have been doing it one by one, but it's pretty unfriendly to people
developing new tests and are not familiar with the issue, so perhaps it's just
better to universally disable until we can address it.
> Failing tests due to timeouts caused by SSL depleting random entropy on
> Jenkins

> Tests using SSL can block on Jenkins when random entropy is depleted, causing
> timeouts that trigger test failures.
> I found some info about /dev/random problems on FreeBSD here:
> [https://wiki.freebsd.org/201308DevSummit/Security/DevRandom], which lead me
> to /etc/rc.d/iinitrandom, which gets around the limited entropy by cat'ing a
> bunch of shit to /dev/random:
> {code}
> ( ps -fauxww; sysctl -a; date; df -ib; dmesg; ps -fauxww ) \
> | dd of=/dev/random bs=8k 2>/dev/null
> cat /bin/ls | dd of=/dev/random bs=8k 2>/dev/null
> {code}
> I think we should try the same strategy in a crontab every X minutes, to see
> if that addresses the test failures.
