2 problems: 1/ we _do_ have such global level deadlock.. but jenkins being java... these are unreliable (jenkins plugin that provide that feature even explain in details that it is unreliable)... 2/ the linux debug build, once a week also rebuild the doc.. which takes a long time.. so I had to bump that global level deadlock to the max time a full build + build the doc and upload it can take... which make the deadlock kick in the 5-6 hours range... not great. > [...] or passed on to someone who can debug the problem, or... There is a flow of task to do.. I cannot block a slave for an undetermined amount of time waiting for someone to take a look.... or the build queue piles up... what is needed is hard timeout.. and preferably with automatic generation of the useful and relevant diag info. the later make per-test timeout more useful since then the watchdog can try to first gather diag of the running test... which will depend on the nature of the test...
