And i got warning in dmesg

Run "make run_tests" under strace and send me the output.


Could you share the exact command, how to 'Run "make run_tests" under strace'


strace make run_tests > strace.out 2>&1

Send me strace.out

Thank you for the strace output. kselftest uses a timeout to terminate
hung tests - that timeout is 45 seconds. When you run "make run_tests"
under watchdog directory, you are running into this.

Yes your fix to add SIGTERM handling makes sense. Please also handle
other signals - SIGKILL, SIGQUIT.

Thanks for the find.

thanks,
