Automatic update from web-platform-tests NativeIO: Add timeout=long to flaky web platform tests This CL adds longer timeouts to some WPT that occasionally time out under macOS. I expect this will reduce the flakiness for tests that spend a long time accessing the hard drive.

This directory contains tests for the NativeIO API.
Note on the synchronous APIs
Chrome is currently working with developers to explore the performance implications of using NativeIO as an asynchronous Promise-based API from WebAssembly.
In order to assess the performance overhead, a baseline is needed. This baseline is a synchronous API that can be easily used to port existing database code to WebAssembly. The synchronous API is only exposed to dedicated workers.
Until our performance studies are concluded, Chrome has no plans of shipping the synchronous API. In other words, there are no plans of adding a new synchronous storage API to the Web Platform.
