[Buildbot-devel] Figuring out if a step timed out

[Ilya Katsnelson]

Hello:

I'm trying to write a doStepIf function. The function would return True if
the previous step has failed due to timeout (nothing on the output for the
timeout seconds). However, I'm yet to find a mechanism to do this using the
current buildbot API. The step status in the timeout case is FAILURE, there
is no special status for timeout. There is also no way to get the part of
the log that prints the timeout message (i.e. command timed out: 18000
seconds without output, attempting to kill

process killed by signal 9
program finished with exit code -1
elapsedTime=18001.938784


Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you,
-Ilya.
