Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] tests/qtest: Use exit-with-parent=on in qtest invocations
Date: Thu, 9 Oct 2025 17:12:47 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251009161526.140497-3-rjones@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251009161526.140497-1-rjones@redhat.com>
Previously libqtest.c set PR_SET_PDEATHSIG (or the equivalent on
FreeBSD) after forking the qemu subprocess. However we can get the
same behaviour now by using the new -run-with exit-with-parent=on
flag, on platforms that support it.
