Subject: test: optimise fd closing in forks
X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=18562261abadfbdf7e19006c381bcb1d6fd6c2fe;p=dpdk.git

test: optimise fd closing in forks

Caught while investigating timeouts on a ARM64 server.

Stracing a test process running the eal_flags_autotest, we can see that
the fork helper is checking all possible file descriptors from
getdtablesize() to 2, and close the existing ones.
We can do better by inspecting this forked process /proc/self/fd
directory.

Besides, checking file descriptors via /proc/self/fd only makes sense for
Linux. This code was a noop on FreeBSD.

Fixes: af75078fece3 ("first public release")
