[PATCH net-next v3 05/11] selftests/vsock: do not unconditionally die if qemu fails
From: Bobby Eshleman
Date: Thu Nov 06 2025 - 19:49:56 EST
From: Bobby Eshleman <bobbyeshleman@xxxxxxxx>
If QEMU fails to boot, then set the returncode (via timeout) instead of
unconditionally dying. This is in preparation for tests that expect QEMU
to fail to boot. In that case, we just want to know if the boot failed
or not so we can test the pass/fail criteria, and continue executing the
next test.
