What
When a self-hosted runner's child process fails, the reported result now includes the signal that terminated it as well as the exit code, which distinguishes a crash or an out-of-memory kill from an ordinary non-zero exit.
Details
The signal appears in the posted failure payload and in both log lines, the initial attempt and the retry.
Self-hosted runners only.
