![]() Using a custom timeout is useful to continue fuzzing complex devices, even after we run into some slow code-path. However, simply adding a fixed timeout to each input effectively caps the maximum input length/number of operations at some artificial value. There are two major problems with this: 1. Some code might only be reachable through long IO sequences. 2. Longer inputs can actually be _better_ for performance. While the raw number of fuzzer executions decreases with larger inputs, the number of MMIO/PIO/DMA operation/second actually increases, since were are speding proportionately less time fork()ing. With this change, we keep the custom-timeout, but we renew it, prior to each MMIO/PIO/DMA operation. Thus, we time-out only when a specific operation takes a long time.
