Description

This test failed on a CI run on "main":

https://github.com/oxidecomputer/omicron/runs/64258375971

Log showing the specific test failure:

https://buildomat.eng.oxide.computer/wg/0/details/01KHWZGEEZ4Z5HPMYBZK10TYFH/CX15gpBIFazZCja5xPDH6ErMigWDe1pun7ehMH3I9hgxSJD2/01KHWZGT9JQ0W9NZFX1X9BFV0H#S622

Excerpt from the log showing the failure:

+ curl -sSfL --retry 10 https://get.nexte.st/0.9.125/linux
+ gunzip
+ tar -xvf - -C /home/build/.cargo/bin
curl: (56) OpenSSL SSL_read: Connection reset by peer, errno 104
cargo-nextest
gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

The --retry helps here for issues seen while starting the download, but not for mid-download problems due to it being piped:

Research direction

Start with .github/buildomat/build-and-test.sh at line 25 and review how the cargo-nextest download is piped through curl, gunzip, and tar. Use the linked CI run and log to confirm the failure mode, then verify that a mid-download interruption is handled and the CI installation completes successfully.
