From fc1a3bfedf7d6cca27a8460b419482b8b0959e27 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephen Warren Date: Wed, 18 Dec 2019 11:37:21 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] test_env: don't strip() printenv results get_env() was originally written to strip() the output of printenv to isolate the test from any whitespace changes in printenv's output. However, this throws away any whitespace in the variable value, which can cause issues when test code expects to see that whitespace. In fact, printenv never adds any whitespace at all, so there's no need to strip. The strip causes a practical problem for test_env_echo_exists() if state_test_env.get_existent_var() happens to choose a U-Boot variable that contains trailing whitespace. This is true for variable boot_targets. With Python 2, get_existent_var() never returned boot_targets so this issue never caused a practical problem. With Python 3, get_existent_var does sometimes return boot_targets, no doubt due to Python 3's different dict hash key order implementation, about 0.5-2% of the time, so this test appears intermittent. With the strip removed, this intermittency is solved, since the test passes for all possible U-Boot variables.
