Writing to the mount with os.WriteFile made the Go runtime register the file with its poller so the kernel then polled the file from epoll_ctl and epoll_wait, sending POLL requests to the FUSE server running in this same process. A thread waiting inside epoll cannot be preempted by the runtime, so a garbage collection starting while such a POLL was outstanding stopped the world for good - the test binary could not be killed even with SIGKILL and the mount was left behind, wedging anything that touched it. Now we write through the mount with a descriptor straight from open(2), which os.NewFile keeps out of the poller, check that it really is out of the poller with SetDeadline, and check at the end of the test that the mountpoint is unmounted. In this commit we fixed the same problem for mount by running in a subprocess however changing one write file routine here was much easier than re-arranging the tests.4a382c09ecmount: run tests in a subprocess to fix deadlock - #3259 Note that go-fuse (and hence mount2) works around this problem it by forcing an early POLL it can answer with ENOSYS.
