This patch increases timeouts on some tests I've observed timing out.
elf/tst-tls13 and iconvdata/tst-loading both dynamically load many
objects and so are slow when testing over NFS. They had timeouts set
from before the default changed from 2 to 20 seconds; this patch
removes those old settings, so effectively increasing the timeout to
20 seconds (from 3 and 10 seconds respectively).
malloc/tst-malloc-thread-fail.c and malloc/tst-mallocfork2.c are slow
on slow systems and so I set a fairly arbitrary 100 second timeout,
which seems to suffice on the system where I saw them timing out.
nss/tst-cancel-getpwuid_r.c and nss/tst-nss-getpwent.c are slow on
systems with a large passwd file; I set timeouts that empirically
worked for me. (It seems tst-cancel-getpwuid_r.c is hitting the
100000 getpwuid_r call limit in my testing, with each call taking a
bit over 0.007 seconds, so 700 seconds for the test.)
* elf/tst-tls13.c (TIMEOUT): Remove.
* iconvdata/tst-loading.c (TIMEOUT): Likewise.
* malloc/tst-malloc-thread-fail.c (TIMEOUT): Increase to 100.
* malloc/tst-mallocfork2.c (TIMEOUT): Define to 100.
* nss/tst-cancel-getpwuid_r.c (TIMEOUT): Define to 900.
* nss/tst-nss-getpwent.c (TIMEOUT): Define to 300.
Right now tilegx is right on the verge of timeout when it runs,
so adding a bit of headroom seems like the right thing; we
see failures when running tests in parallel.
This test case exercises unusual code paths in allocation functions,
related to allocation failures. Specifically, the test can reveal
the following bugs:
(a) calloc returns non-zero memory on fallback to sysmalloc.
(b) calloc can self-deadlock because it fails to release
the arena lock on certain allocation failures.
(c) pvalloc can dereference a NULL arena pointer.
(a) and (b) appear specific to a faulty downstream backport.
(c) was fixed as part of commit 10ad46bc65.
The test for (a) was inspired by a reproducer supplied by Jeff Layton.
