Here is new set of tests, and they almost work. https://github.com/kerolasa/lelux-utiliteetit/tree/kill-tests-v2 The 'name_to_number' check[1] is giving random errors, and my wooden eyes does not observe where is the problem. Or if the problem is in kill itself, and random errors are a real bug. According to helper witness file the signal receiver is running, but kill does not find it. Some times the check passes without issues, but more often there is one that kind of error, sometime two.

Hi Sami, thanks. Looking quickly at the tests, I think I don't understand the idea behind all that symlinking stuff. I mean for most test cases it would suffice to kill with the PID instead of the process name. Re. the test failures of name_to_number: when I change the kill command to work on $TEST_PID instead of the symlink name, then I don't get the failures anymore. BTW: is there a reason why you stick to using $(jobs -p) to get the TEST_PID instead of the much simpler "$!"?
