I can't repro in the shell I was using while writing this.
Starting up a new session, I get:
* good
* bad x3
* good
* bad x3
* good
* bad x3
* bad, but not as bad (phew, I thought this was cursed)
.kunit/test.log contains the output with proper \n each time I checked.
Doesn't seem to repro when redirected into a file:
$ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py exec --raw_output > /tmp/out && diff
/tmp/out .kunit/test.log | grep -m1 '^>'
Piping it through cat also seems 100% fine:
$ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py exec --raw_output | cat
So having stdin be subprocess.PIPE sorta makes sense in some twisted way.
I can also now repro that setting stdin=subprocess.PIPE seems to fix it.
I don't want to put back subprocess.PIPE, but I'm not confident in
being able to find a better solution...
