[PATCH v2] ksefltest: pidfd: Fix wait_states: Test terminated by timeout

From: Li Zhijian
Date: Fri Dec 17 2021 - 04:31:30 EST


0Day/LKP observed that the kselftest blocks foever since one of the
pidfd_wait doesn't terminate in 1 of 30 runs. After digging into
the source, we found that it blocks at:
ASSERT_EQ(sys_waitid(P_PIDFD, pidfd, &info, WCONTINUED, NULL), 0);

we can reproduce it by:
$ while true; do make run_tests -C pidfd; done

Introduce a blocking read in child process to make sure the parent can
check its WCONTINUED.
