Hi Richard,

I don't have prior experience with LTP tests, but from reading the
code it looks reasonable to me.

I assume that .needs_tmpdir = 1 ensures that each test runs in its own
new temp dir, which is later removed.

I've stared for a while at "rem / exec_time_start < 0.98" trying to
understand what is that tst_timeout_remaining() returns that we want
to kill that process when the ratio is < 0.98... provided that we
convert 1 to float but not the other var. I failed to come up with the
answer. I have potential answers for "<0.02" and ">0.98". But I assume
you know what you are doing :)

Re tst_res(TINFO, "Timeout; killing reproducer"). Not sure how much it
pollutes output on 3000 tests. If it is, it can make sense to remove
it. Lots of tests run forever, killing it is not something of
particular interest generally.
