Description
I defined a Quadrupole element with some uint8 fields (see https://github.com/xsuite/xtrack/blob/e7ac347130b09ae1208061ba34b58e5e6d62f19f/xtrack/beam_elements/elements.py#L1194) and xtrack/tests/test_elements.py::test_constructors fails when dumping and reloading the xobject (on OpenCL).
From inspecting the buffers all the meaningful data seems to actually be in the right place (bytes at 144 and 152 are zero). However, it's not clear to me if this is by chance (and we have an alignment problem) or if it's simply the fact that the buffer is not being zeroed by default on OpenCL (then we have less of a problem but we cannot assume anymore that two identical xobjects are bitwise equal).
This is the exact difference and layout:
