When looking for something else in LKFT reports [1], I noticed that the TC selftest ended with a timeout error:
not ok 1 selftests: tc-testing: tdc.sh # TIMEOUT 45 seconds
The timeout had been introduced 3 years ago, see the Fixes commit below.
This timeout is only in place when executing the selftests via the kselftests runner scripts. I guess this is not what most TC devs are using and nobody noticed the issue before.
The new timeout is set to 15 minutes as suggested by Pedro [2]. It looks like it is plenty more time than what it takes in "normal" conditions.
