Hello everyone,

I have got an error in a lava job during to overlay unpacking operations.

This happen with jobs that flash the DUT before executing the tests. When the partitions are flashed on the DUT, I reboot the boards.

After kernel has started, the kernel boot prompt is detected. Then the commands to downloads the tests overlay are launched. ( wget ... )
But in my case, these commands are not immediately executed, because the DUT is beeing resizing the root filesystem to fit available disk space
on the SDCard.

This operation take time ( depending on capacity and characteristics of the SDCard), and cause overlay-unpack to fail with a timeout error,
because the command wget is not executed in the expected time ( 30 sec is the default time ).

I have tried to add a time out settings in the transfer_overlay part of my jobs, but this has no effect.

Is it possible to set specific "timeout trigger" for the "overlay-unpack" operation ? 

My Lava version: 2019.01+stretch
