tests/regression/tools/clear/test_ust fails occacionally

[Kienan Stewart]

Hi Mingli,

sorry I missed these messages last week.

What version of babeltrace are you using when running the tests?

What distribution + version are you using?

There is a fix for hangs that may occur during the test, which is 
included in stable-2.14 - 
https://github.com/lttng/lttng-tools/commit/55d3f5e528059267f44fb24b179b992bf2b0cfa6

I've been working on replacing the test. I'd be curious to know if you 
also see intermittent failures with the new version (e.g., is it a 
detail in the test harness, or is the issue elsewhere).

thanks,
kienan
