just curious because we don't require c99 compiler or because it is
not compliant with dpdk style/convention?

regardless, will fix just curious.

will fix.

if you're saying it isn't deterministic i partially agree. regardless
many bugs are not deterministic. e.g. composite/split initialization bugs
as a class, there could be side-effects get/get since the function is
not pure.

enforcing a rule that tests only ever fail for deterministic reasons
would eliminate opportunity to hint at various classes of initialization
bugs. as an example right now pthread_create shim has one of these class
of bugs and there is no deterministic test that guarantees 100% failure
though a non-deterministic test enabled today would show a high rate of
failure warranting investigation before now.

the only downside is that if a test like this does fail it is possible
to be unrelated to the implementation of the feature being tested and
that can be misleading and i admit frustrating.

i agree that the set/get/compare is duplicated i'll remove it the
first occurence but the get/get/compare i think should stay.
