Current code parses arguments with strtok_r() using a construct like
char *state = NULL; while ((next = strtok_r(state ? NULL : input, ",", &state))) { ... }
where logic assumes the 'state' var can distinguish between first and subsequent strtok_r() calls, and adjusts parameters accordingly. However, 'state' is strictly internal context for strtok_r() and no such assumptions are supported in the man page. Moreover, the exact behaviour of 'state' depends on the libc implementation, making the above code fragile.
Indeed, invoking "./test_progs -t <test_name>" on mips64el/musl will hang, with the above code in an infinite loop.
Similarly, we see strange behaviour running 'veristat' on mips64el/musl:
$ ./veristat -e file,prog,verdict,insns -C two-ok add-failure Can't specify more than 9 stats
Rewrite code using a 'for' loop without logic dependent on var 'state', the same approach already used in cgroup_helpers.c.
