> command timed out: 1200 seconds without output running ['make', > 'buildbottest', 'TESTOPTS=-j2 -j4 ${BUILDBOT_TESTOPTS}', 'TESTPYTHONOPTS=', > 'TESTTIMEOUT=900'], attempting to kill faulthandler is supposed to display the traceback where the test hangs, but for the main process, libregrtest uses a delay of timeout x 2 seconds: self.worker_timeout = self.ns.timeout * 1.5 self.main_timeout = self.ns.timeout * 2.0 Here timeout=900 ("TESTTIMEOUT=900"), so main_timeout = 1800 seconds (30 minutes), whereas buildbot timeout is 1200 seconds (20 minutes) :-( In fact, main_timeout can be *way* shorter: the main process calls faulthandler.dump_traceback_later(self.main_timeout, exit=True) every max(PROGRESS_UPDATE, PROGRESS_MIN_TIME) seconds (or more often): every 30 seconds (of more often). So main_process could be max(PROGRESS_UPDATE, PROGRESS_MIN_TIME) x 2 = 1 minute, instead of 30 minutes. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue38190> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
