[ Upstream commit 88e1f16ba58665e9edfce437ea487da2fa759af9 ]
0Day/LKP observed that the kselftest blocks forever since one of the
pidfd_wait doesn't terminate in 1 of 30 runs. After digging into
the source, we found that it blocks at:
ASSERT_EQ(sys_waitid(P_PIDFD, pidfd, &info, WCONTINUED, NULL), 0);
wait_states has below testing flow:
CHILD PARENT
---------------+--------------
1 STOP itself
2 WAIT for CHILD STOPPED
3 SIGNAL CHILD to CONT
4 CONT
5 STOP itself
5' WAIT for CHILD CONT
6 WAIT for CHILD STOPPED
The problem is that the kernel cannot ensure the order of 5 and 5', once
5 goes first, the test will fail.
we can reproduce it by:
$ while true; do make run_tests -C pidfd; done
Introduce a blocking read in child process to make sure the parent can
check its WCONTINUED.
