In `SparkSubmitDriverBootstrapper`, we wait for the parent process to send us an `EOF` before finishing the application. This is applicable for the PySpark shell because we terminate the application the same way. However if we run a python application, for instance, the JVM actually never exits unless it receives a manual EOF from the user. This is causing a few tests to timeout.
We only need to do this for the PySpark shell because Spark submit runs as a python subprocess only in this case. Thus, the normal Spark shell doesn't need to go through this case even though it is also a REPL.
Thanks davies for reporting this.
