It does not make sense to run the test cleanup function when the setup
function has been run.

And at least some network tests expect setup has been run before running
cleanup (e.g. tcp_fastopen_run.sh).

When shell API was introduced, cleanup function was run only if 1) setup
function was defined 2) and also run. That was inconsistent from C API,
thus e7dc14caa run it always.

But shell API is different from C API: tst_brk can be called from
tst_test.sh (or other library which is run before tst_run, e.g.
tst_net.sh). That was probably the reason, why detection via
$TST_SETUP_STARTED was introduced in initial shell API.

NOTE: using type is better than grep $TST_TEST_PATH, because cleanup
function can be in other library sourced by the test.

Fixes: e7dc14caa ("tst_test.sh: Run cleanup even setup is not defined")

Did you mean "setup function hasn't been run." here?

As it is this sentence does not make any sense to me.

This still possibly break tests that would call tst_brk() in the middle
of setup and expect the cleanup() to be executed, right?

I guess that we would need TST_DO_CLEANUP that would be set in both
cases i.e. before we run setup and also before we execute the tests.

What about this:

Good catch, agree.
I'm going to merge with one runtime fix:
> -       if [ -n $TST_DO_CLEANUP -a -n "$TST_CLEANUP" -a -z "$TST_NO_CLEANUP" ]; then

Quotes are required otherwise we can get error:
/opt/ltp/testcases/bin/tst_test.sh: line 31: [: too many arguments

Kind regards,
Petr
