Ok, that makes sense. Thanks. By the way, Eric, were you able to reproduce the bug I mentioned earlier?
It has proven itself to be very difficult to trigger. I received several reports of successfull 24-hour ztest runs, only 1 user has been affected. I've changed the ztest attach/detach frequency to "always", and was able to reproduce it once in 10 minutes. I think I was lucky, because I tried to reproduce it again and even after 10 hours I wasn't able to do it.. I have the core file available, but I haven't analyzed the cause yet.
