[PATCH v1 3/4] perf test: Use a single fd for the child process out/err

From: Ian Rogers
Date: Fri Mar 01 2024 - 02:47:50 EST


Switch from dumping err then out, to a single file descriptor for both
of them. This allows the err and output to be correctly interleaved in
verbose output.

Fixes: b482f5f8e016 ("perf tests: Add option to run tests in parallel")
