And looking at the code closely, this is not enough, since we have:

        if (WIFEXITED(status) && WEXITSTATUS(status))
		exit(WEXITSTATUS(status));

in the tst_run_tcases(). So we have to call cleanup_ipc() before the
exit() here as well.


Also we do not count the TBROK in results structure, since the TBROK is
propagated only by exit value so do_exit() will exit with 0 in case that
we TBROK in the test library.

This is getting more complicated than I would like.

Minimal patch to fix this would be:

diff --git a/lib/tst_test.c b/lib/tst_test.c
index f7485bd..67d778e 100644

Or we may change do_exit() to take parameter so that we can actually
pass the TBROK to it, in a case that you want to print the statistics in
this case as well...
