"hs_circuitmap_init: Assertion !the_hs_circuitmap failed" when repeating failed tests on Android
When repeated running the Android TorService test suite from https://gitlab.com/eighthave/tor-android, I occasionally received this crash:
main src/feature/hs/hs_circuitmap.c:598: hs_circuitmap_init: Assertion !the_hs_circuitmap failed; aborting.

- it could be that the Android Test Orchestrator is reusing state that it shouldn't be https://developer.android.com/training/testing/junit-runner#using-android-test-orchestrator
- "The Dalvik process hosting a typical app is forked off of zygote with all the common android libraries already mapped, so new unique copies don't have to be opened" https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9153166/understanding-android-zygote-and-dalvikvm

So there are at least two possibilities:
- tor is busted and is calling hs_circuitmap_init() more than it should
- tor is busted and is calling hs_circuitmap_free_all() less than it should there are probably more, like:
- there is a problem in the android harness, and it is trying to restart tor before it has shut down
