cmdlib.sh: add env var to sleep before killing tail#3792
Conversation
I can't reproduce this locally, but I have a suspicion that `tail` can exit too quickly in some circumstances, causing truncated output: openshift/os#1498 (comment) coreos#3785 (comment) Rather than having an unconditional `sleep`, let's make it easier to test that theory by having an env var we can use to make it optional. Then we'll test that in CI. Mid-term, I'd like to revert 79b15c8 soon so we can go back to virtio-serial which is just so much cleaner.

Interesting. Prow is still hitting:
But I did tag it into the continuous tag and the repo was already regenerated. CoreOS CI at least is happy now. That repo isn't mirrored AFAIK though I wonder if Prow is somehow hitting an old version. |
