Re: [igt-dev] [PATCH i-g-t v2] runner: Don't kill a test on taint if watching timeouts

From: Chris Wilson <hidden>

Quoting Janusz Krzysztofik (2020-12-04 19:50:07)
We may still be interested in results of a test even if it has tainted
the kernel.  On the other hand, we need to kill the test on taint if no
other means of killing it on a jam is active.

If abort on both kernel taint or a timeout is requested, decrease all
potential timeouts significantly while the taint is detected instead of
aborting immediately.  However, report the taint as the reason of the
abort if a timeout decreased by the taint expires.
This has the nasty side effect of not stopping the test run after a
kernel taint. Instead the next test inherits the tainted condition from
the previous test and usually ends up being declared incomplete.

False positives are frustrating.
