Hello Simon, the gitlab 'sandbox test.py' job seems to be kind of a lottery:
https://gitlab.denx.de/u-boot/custodians/u-boot-efi/-/jobs/25678 Job succeeded https://gitlab.denx.de/u-boot/custodians/u-boot-efi/-/jobs/25499 /u-boot-efi/test/dm/rtc.c:167, dm_test_rtc_dual(): -EINVAL == cmp_times(&now1, &cmp, false): Expected -22, got 0\r\r\nFailures: 1'.endswith dm_test_rtc_dual() fails or succeeds for the same code. @Tom: Did you also see such spurious results? At first sight I could not anything wrong in the dm_test_rtc_dual() test assuming that the Gitlab environment provides a monotonic clock for the time() function. The findings below do not explain the problem: now2 is read but never used. We are testing that we can get the time from emul2 later on. So I think this line is not needed. The offset of emul1 is not set before reading now1. If it were -2 (but I would not know why it should get to that value), than setting offset + 1 for emul2 would be a NOP. So shouldn't we set the offset of emul1 to a well defined value before reading now1? Shouldn't dm_test_rtc_dual() reset the offset of emul2 to 0 before returning?
