You do realize that this is about number 6 in my set of tests for my test
suite?
I think the proper conclusion is simply that at least occasionally I
should hand in my "C programmer" lincense due to accute incompetence ;-)
~/xorg/intel-gpu-tools$ ls tests/igt_*c
tests/igt_fork_helper.c tests/igt_no_exit.c tests/igt_no_subtest.c
tests/igt_list_only.c tests/igt_no_exit_list_only.c tests/igt_simulation.c
Fyi you can run the with
$ make check
which is always recommended when you touch some of the library code.

Yeah, it's not pretty. If I'd go totally ocd I'd do a for_boolean macro
for simple, list_subtests and in_fixture and for the simulation flag. But
my thinking here was that I want to explicitly list all the case, since
it's no totally obvious which should return 77 and which 0. So I've left
it at the very verbose but explicit version above.
After all this is a testcase for a now fairly established (and documented)
piece of igt infrastructure, so I don't think anyone needs to look at this
any time soon (i.e. hopefully not in the next few years).
Also, alread pushed ;-)
Thanks for the comments anyway.
