Hi Andrea,

FYI on some of my Tumbleweed VM with 7.2.0-rc6-3.g1b28f10-default
test timeouts:

nit: we already have sys_futex() in include/tst_timer.h, maybe using it?

nice magic :).

Maybe SAFE_PRCTL() ?

very nit: why static?

I wonder why these other 2?

Code LGTM, but I'd like to have at least brief look at the original reproducers.

Kind regards,
Petr
