With echo 0 > /proc/sys/debug/kprobes-optimization, the test, executed
in a tight loop with even the "sleep 3;" part removed from bz6503.exp,
runs fine for hours.
# while true; do make installcheck RUNTESTFLAGS=bz6503.exp; done
With echo 1, the test loop fails within a minute or two, on this VM:
Linux vm-f15-64 2.6.40.6-0.fc15.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Oct 4 00:39:50 UTC 2011
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
2 VCPU, 2GB RAM.
I strongly suspect this is a kernel bug that we'll just have to work
around somehow, perhaps by teaching staprun to turn off kprobes optimization.
