We have some many cases that will create child process as well, such as pidfd_wait. Previously, we will signal/kill the parent process when it is time out, but this signal will not be sent to its child process. In such case, if child process doesn't terminate itself, ksefltest framework will hang forever.
below ps tree show the situation when ksefltest is blocking: root 1172 0.0 0.0 5996 2500 ? S 07:03 0:00 _ /bin/bash /lkp/lkp/src/tests/kernel-selftests root 1216 0.0 0.0 4392 1976 ?
