In our code under extension.ts file,  
This function is there.  
export function run(args: string): Promise\<{ fault: Fault; value: any }\> {

inside this function below code are there,  
setTimeout(() =\> {  
if (jobs.delete(id)) {  
resolve({  
fault: { code: “timeout”, message: “Extension timed out” },  
value: null,  
});  
}  
}, TIMEOUT);

```
if (!processes[scriptName].connected) return false;

return processes[scriptName].send([id, args.slice(1)]);

```

});  
}

What is this function will do , what is the “job” means,  
how to resolve the extension timeout fault , is there any expiry time for this faults.

what is max retries of faults.
