From e81e7a533742c30615f8b15390df6525cef96778 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stanislav Fomichev Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2020 15:41:07 -0700 Subject: selftests/bpf: Fix possible hang in sockopt_inherit Andrii reported that sockopt_inherit occasionally hangs up on 5.5 kernel [0]. This can happen if server_thread runs faster than the main thread. In that case, pthread_cond_wait will wait forever because pthread_cond_signal was executed before the main thread was blocking. Let's move pthread_mutex_lock up a bit to make sure server_thread runs strictly after the main thread goes to sleep. (Not sure why this is 5.5 specific, maybe scheduling is less deterministic? But I was able to confirm that it does indeed happen in a VM.)
