Swarming: killing a running task should kill children tasks |
|
Issue descriptionUse case: - Forcibly kill a running task that is a recipe build, which triggered a lot of children tasks for tests Actual: - The task itself is killed, but not the children tasks Expected: - Whole task tree is killed AI: - Add new flag in /cancel endpoint, to signal if the whole task tree should be killed. - When set to true, kill all the children tasks. - Update Web UI and CLI to set it to true by default. Challenge: - As long as issue 808836 is not implemented, this will cause process leaks/unclean tear down. But we should be able to cope with this as long as the bots reboot the host after a task failure.
