Recently [1] we've established that we'll not be raising the timeout arbitrarily to compensate for a possibly slow hardware unless it's a widespread problem. The tests you are complaining about are pretty fast on my system: 203/334 libvirt:syntax-check / sc_prohibit_nonreentrant OK 0.23s 315/334 libvirt:syntax-check / sc_unmarked_diagnostics OK 0.63s On a laptop: 204/335 libvirt:syntax-check / sc_prohibit_nonreentrant OK 0.44s 316/335 libvirt:syntax-check / sc_unmarked_diagnostics OK 0.78s And on a random sample from our (linux) CI runs: 53/158 libvirt:syntax-check / sc_libvirt_unmarked_diagnostics OK 0.6185753345489502 s 27/158 libvirt:syntax-check / sc_prohibit_nonreentrant OK 0.2680661678314209 s Given the almost 2 orders of magnitude difference, I think something is broken on your system and should be investigated first before attempting to increase the timeout.
