Subject: [PATCH stalld 15/36] tests/helpers: Flush stdout after starvation_gen startup messages
Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2026 16:43:38 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260330194410.103953-16-wander@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260330194410.103953-1-wander@redhat.com>
starvation_gen prints its startup configuration (iteration target and
stop instructions) via printf, but does not flush stdout afterward.
When stdout is not connected to a terminal, libc switches to block
buffering, so these messages may not reach the test harness until the
buffer fills or the process exits.
Add an explicit fflush(stdout) after the startup printf calls to
ensure immediate delivery regardless of buffering mode.
