  The test changes the current foreground process group, which might
break testing depending of how the make check is issued.  For instance:

  nohup make -j1 test t=posix/tst-spawn6 | less

Will set 'make' and 'less' to be in the foreground process group in
the current session.  When tst-spawn6 new child takes over it becomes
the foreground process and 'less' is stopped and backgrounded which
interrupts the 'make check' command.

To fix it a pseudo-terminal is allocated, the test starts in new
session (so there is no controlling terminal associated), and the
pseudo-terminal is set as the controlling one (similar to what
login_tty does).

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.

OK for glibc 2.35, and this fixes the test issues reported in bug 28853.

Tested on x86_64.

OK.

OK. In hindsight I think this can all be simplified using forkpty().

OK. This connects to the ptm side of the terminal.


> +      TEST_VERIFY_EXIT (ptsname_r (ptmx, ptmxpath, sizeof ptmxpath) == 0);

OK. This is OK as-is, but it fills ptmxpath with the pts side of the ptm/pts pair. So we end
up operating on the pts side, but I think that's fine because it's the terminal that matters.
