[PATCH v5 4/5] selftests/resctrl: Cleanup properly when an error occurs in CAT test

From: Shaopeng Tan
Date: Wed Jan 11 2023 - 02:59:44 EST


After creating a child process with fork() in CAT test, if there is an
error occurs or a signal such as SIGINT is received, the parent process
will be terminated immediately, and therefor the child process will not
be killed and also resctrlfs is not unmounted.

There is a signal handler registered in CMT/MBM/MBA tests, which kills
child process, unmount resctrlfs, cleanups result files, etc., if a
signal such as SIGINT is received.

Commonize the signal handler registered for CMT/MBM/MBA tests and reuse
it in CAT too.

To reuse the signal handler, make the child process in CAT wait to be
killed by parent process in any case (an error occurred or a signal was
received), and when killing child process use global bm_pid instead of
local bm_pid.

Also, since the MBA/MBA/CMT/CAT are run in order, unregister the signal
handler at the end of each test so that the signal handler cannot be
inherited by other tests.
