We cannot use CLONE_VFORK because we also need to wait for the timeout signal.
Restore tests timeout by using the original fork() call in __run_test() but also in __TEST_F_IMPL(). Also fix a race condition when waiting for the test child process. Because test metadata are shared between test processes, only the parent process must set the test PID (child). Otherwise, t->pid may be set to zero, leading to inconsistent error cases: # RUN layout1.rule_on_mountpoint ... # rule_on_mountpoint: Test ended in some other way [127] # OK layout1.rule_on_mountpoint ok 20 layout1.rule_on_mountpoint As safeguards, initialize the "status" variable with a valid exit code, and handle unknown test exits as errors. The use of fork() introduces a new race condition in landlock/fs_test.c which seems to be specific to hostfs bind mounts, but I haven't found the root cause and it's difficult to trigger. I'll try to fix it with another patch.
