# "Early exit" test
#
# In this test, the compressor exits before reading all (any) data.
# Until coreutils 9.9 'sort' could get a SIGPIPE writing to the
# exited processes and silently exit. Note the same issue can happen
# irrespective of exit status. It's more likely to happen in the
# case of the child exiting with success, and if we write more data
# (hence the --batch-size=30 and double "in"). Note we check sort doesn't
# get SIGPIPE rather than if it returns SORT_FAILURE, because there is
# the theoretical possibility that the kernel could buffer the
# amount of data we're writing here and not issue the EPIPE to sort.
# In other words we currently may not detect failures in the extreme edge case
# of writing a small amount of data to a compressor that exits 0
# while not reading all the data presented.
