"""Memory watchdog: periodically read the memory usage of the main test process
and print it out, until terminated."""
# stdin should refer to the process' /proc/<PID>/statm: we don't pass the
# process' PID to avoid a race condition in case of - unlikely - PID recycling.
# If the process crashes, reading from the /proc entry will fail with ESRCH.
