That code essentially use


pid = fork();
if (pid > 0) {
wait();
}

https://github.com/lttng/lttng-ust/blob/2d2d38713aea27077b690f2756a901c2a0c06f8c/src/lib/lttng-ust/lttng-ust-comm.c#L1584-L1597

that is problematic because it translates to waitpid(-1, &wstatus, 0) on Linux and that can reap any unrelated process that existed during that time.
While the window is narrow it can be anything started before lttng was called or something started from unrelated thread.

The code rally should use
pid = waitpid(pid, &status, 0);
to avoid collecting unrelated status

Long saga and traces are captured here: https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/74795

lttng is loaded and initialized indirectly via msquic library and the code above interferes with tests runs.
It showed only on arm64 but that is probably just matter of timing.
