Subject: [LTP] [PATCH v11] semctl01: fix SEM_STAT failures under parallel LTP runs
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2026 17:00:17 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260729210019.7647-1-sbertram@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260729193307.4187107-1-sbertram@redhat.com>

SEM_STAT was using the global high index from IPC_INFO, which is not
stable when other IPC tests run in parallel and can abort the test with
TBROK.
