net/rds/test.py sees a segfault in tcpdump when executed through the ksft runner. [ 21.903713] tcpdump[1469]: segfault at 0 ip 000072100e99126d sp 00007ffccf740fd0 error 4 [ 21.903721] in libc.so.6[16a26d,7798b149a000+188000] [ 21.905074] in libc.so.6[16a26d,72100e84f000+188000] likely on CPU 5 (core 5, socket 0) [ 21.905084] Code: 00 0f 85 a0 00 00 00 48 83 c4 38 89 d8 5b 41 5c 41 5d 41 5e 41 5f 5d c3 0f 1f 44 00 00 48 8b 05 91 8b 09 00 8b 4d ac 64 89 08 <41> 0f b6 07 83 e8 2b a8 fd 0f 84 54 ff ff ff 49 8b 36 4c 89 ff e8 [ 21.906760] likely on CPU 9 (core 9, socket 0) [ 21.913469] Code: 00 0f 85 a0 00 00 00 48 83 c4 38 89 d8 5b 41 5c 41 5d 41 5e 41 5f 5d c3 0f 1f 44 00 00 48 8b 05 91 8b 09 00 8b 4d ac 64 89 08 <41> 0f b6 07 83 e8 2b a8 fd 0f 84 54 ff ff ff 49 8b 36 4c 89 ff e8 The os.fork() call creates extra complexity because it forks the entire process including the python interpreter. ip() then calls cmd() which creates a subprocess.Popen. We can avoid the extra layering by simply calling subprocess.Popen directly. Track the process handles directly and terminate them at cleanup rather than relying on killall. Further tcpdump's -Z flag attempts to change savefile ownership, which is not supported by the 9p protocol. Fix this by writing pcap captures to "/tmp" during the test and move them to the log directory after tcpdump exits.
