[picnixz]

The iOS failures seem unrelated though I cannot confirm and the Android failure may be related so I'll check

[picnixz]

The code that seems to fail is:

self.assertEqual(write_len, stream.write(b)) iflinesisNone: lines= [b.decode()] self.assert_logs(level, tag, lines)

However, we're using a strictor a backslashreplace error handler in b.decode() and the logcat process:

defsetUp(self): self.logcat_process=subprocess.Popen( ["logcat", "-v", "tag"], stdout=subprocess.PIPE, errors="backslashreplace" )

so I don't know how it was affected by this change. I'll rerun the build bot for this one and if it still fails, I'll revert the PR.

!buildbot aarch64 Android 3.x

[bedevere-bot]

The regex 'aarch64 Android 3.x' did not match any buildbot builder. Is the requested builder in the list of stable builders?

[picnixz]

Nevermind, the two build bots are actually green on the latest main ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[mhsmith]

I'm not sure what happened with the iOS buildbot, but the Android failure is a known problem: #124666.

[picnixz]

Thank you for confirming this. iOS build bot seems to never run so it could be a network issue or build bot issue.

[mhsmith]

The iOS buildbot had some issues recently (#129200), but it should be back to normal now. This particular failure is one I haven't seen before – it looks like it passed the test suite and then crashed at the end.
