Found with 'stress-ng --cpu-sched' from current stress-ng upstream HEAD:

Testcase (attached):

$ gcc -O2 -o manysignals manysignals.c

$ ./manysignals
fork() = 1833
...
fork() = 1848
...
kill(1833, 17)
...
kill(1848, 17)
kill(1833, 9)
...
kill(1848, 9)
waitpid(1833, ., 0)


Run this in second terminal:

$ watch "ps | sed -n '1p;/manysignals/{/sed/d;p}'"

If 'S' appear in the first column, the child processes likely reached 
the final SIGSTOP state. This takes some time. The parent process may 
still hang in first waitpid() but should not.

If the parent process is aborted with ^C, child processes may be stopped 
or left behind. Occasionally a child process that can not be stopped by 
Cygwin (kill -9) is left behind.

Tested with ancient (i7-2600K) and more recent (i7-14700K) CPU :-)


Unrelated to the above, but related to 'stress-ng --cpu-sched' which 
uses sched_get/setscheduler():

- sched_getscheduler() always returns SCHED_FIFO. As far as I understand 
Linux sched(7), this is a non-preemptive real-time policy. The 
preemptive SCHED_RR would possibly a more reasonable value. 
Unfortunately SCHED_OTHER cannot be used because it would require to 
ignore the priority.

- sched_setscheduler() always fails with ENOSYS. It IMO should allow to 
set 'param->sched_priority' if 'policy' is equal to the value returned 
by sched_getscheduler().
