From a080b6e74b241dbc7e13dd378d6f6fc884579196 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shaopeng Tan Date: Thu, 13 Apr 2023 16:22:56 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] selftests/resctrl: Flush stdout file buffer before executing fork() When a process has buffered output, a child process created by fork() will also copy buffered output. When using kselftest framework, the output (resctrl test result message) will be printed multiple times. Add fflush() to flush out the buffered output before executing fork().
