Indeed it seems really to depend on which system I have run the
tests with and without the patch.
On my IBM X200 notebook the tests passed after adding the patch.
But on the gcc farm server the tests were still failing.
So it is like you said, the patch does not fix the issue.

Hi Alexey,
the attached patch fixes at least 3 test suite errors for me.
tst-cancel20/21/4.
Tested with latest 2017.09 ARC binutils/gcc.
Okay to apply?
best regards
Waldemar
Are you sure it is the list above.
I presume,
https://tests.embedded-test.org/uClibc-ng/1.0.26/REPORT.arcv2.libc.uClibc-n…
didn't have this fix and yet the tests mentioned above are PASS there.
The reason I ask is because in my experiments here with ARC GNU 2017.09 +
uClibc with and w/o this patch (actually not exactly same, but similar -
attached), I don't see any consistent PASS(es)
There are some changes to say tst-kill6, tst-oncex3 etc but if you run them
5 times they seem to PASS/FAIL randomly - in either setups
So this patch is not fixing anything IMO. We need to really fix the inherent
race in these tests.
BTW I did post a test case fix for tst-cancel2 and that is now consistently PASS.
