Is this understanding correct? If you have a > better way of implementing this or a better expected behavior, I > appreciate your thoughts. Everything you say is correct. What I tried to point at is that this new behavior is different from the original behavior of your change. Initially you added kasan_multi_shot to command line for _all_ kunit tests (not just KASAN). The question is: do we want kasan_multi_shot for non-KASAN tests or not?
