[U-Boot] Sandbox dm tests leave sandbox in a bad state

[U-Boot] Sandbox dm tests leave sandbox in a bad state

[Joe Hershberger]

Hi Simon,

I tracked a segfault down to the entire DM being left torn down after
the last test. This means anything that wants to use the DM is hosed.
I'm seeing a segfault in the sandbox related to a driver name being
NULL when running "dm tree".

I also noticed that the USB test dm_test_usb_flash can't run more than
once without crashing.

Thoughts? Are these just expected and accepted limitations?

Thanks,
-Joe

Yes that's expected.

However it would actually be possible to fix this, by re-initing
things after they are torn down. The tests don't need to be so
destructive.
