If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 8ca2db572c24c3825149322369dd01cc5d9dc5d6 Author: Guillaume Nault <gnault@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Mar 8 23:15:03 2022 +0100 selftests: pmtu.sh: Kill nettest processes launched in subshell. [ Upstream commit 94a4a4fe4c696413932eed8bdec46574de9576b8 ] When using "run_cmd <command> &", then "$!" refers to the PID of the subshell used to run <command>, not the command itself. Therefore nettest_pids actually doesn't contain the list of the nettest commands running in the background. So cleanup() can't kill them and the nettest processes run until completion (fortunately they have a 5s timeout). Fix this by defining a new command for running processes in the background, for which "$!" really refers to the PID of the command run. Also, double quote variables on the modified lines, to avoid shellcheck warnings.
