The send_signal/send_signal_tracepoint is pretty flaky, with at least
one failure in every ten runs on a few attempts I've tried it:
> test_send_signal_common:PASS:pipe_c2p 0 nsec
> test_send_signal_common:PASS:pipe_p2c 0 nsec
> test_send_signal_common:PASS:fork 0 nsec
> test_send_signal_common:PASS:skel_open_and_load 0 nsec
> test_send_signal_common:PASS:skel_attach 0 nsec
> test_send_signal_common:PASS:pipe_read 0 nsec
> test_send_signal_common:PASS:pipe_write 0 nsec
> test_send_signal_common:PASS:reading pipe 0 nsec
> test_send_signal_common:PASS:reading pipe error: size 0 0 nsec
> test_send_signal_common:FAIL:incorrect result unexpected incorrect result: actual 48 != expected 50
> test_send_signal_common:PASS:pipe_write 0 nsec
> #139/1 send_signal/send_signal_tracepoint:FAIL
The reason does not appear to be a correctness issue in the strict
sense. Rather, we merely do not receive the signal we are waiting for
within the provided timeout.
Let's bump the timeout by a factor of ten. With that change I have not
been able to reproduce the failure in 150+ iterations. I am also sneaking
in a small simplification to the test_progs test selection logic.
