Subject: [PATCH stable 6.18 2/2] kunit: tool: skip stty when stdin is not a tty
Date: Thu, 30 Jul 2026 12:03:29 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260730190329.3388222-3-florian.fainelli@broadcom.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260730190329.3388222-1-florian.fainelli@broadcom.com>
From: Shuvam Pandey <shuvampandey1@gmail.com>
commit e42c349f4cdfa43cb39a68c8f764f8cafc23a9a9 upstream
run_kernel() cleanup and signal_handler() invoke stty unconditionally.
When stdin is not a tty (for example in CI or unit tests), this writes
noise to stderr.
Call stty only when stdin is a tty.
Add regression tests for these paths:
- run_kernel() with non-tty stdin
- signal_handler() with non-tty stdin
- signal_handler() with tty stdin

[florian: add missing 'import sys' required by sys.stdin.isatty(); the
module was already present in the mainline tree before this commit but
was absent from the 6.12 base of kunit_kernel.py]
