- Add missing descriptions to backends.
- Describe how to get instrument-specific parameter descriptions in the
help for instrument_parameters param of EnergyMeasurementInstrument
stress-ng will stress test a computer system in various selectable
ways. It was designed to exercise various physical subsystems of a
computer as well as the various operating system kernel interfaces.
The rt-app workload parses the rt-app JSON file in order to override
some options (specifically duration). Previously, if the JSON was
syntactically incorrect, an uninformative ValueError was raised. Now
we raise a ConfigError with appropriate message prompting the user to
fix the file.
Add an instrument which wraps the devlib screencapture poller, which
allows us to capture a screenshot from the device every `period`. The
`period` is configurable based on the user requirements.
All captured screenshots are named according to the timestamp on the
device, and are placed into an output directory (screen-capture)
within the job directory.
Add these requirements so that they are installed into the readthedocs
environment before building the documentation. If left to use the
default installation method the build process times out.
Update the documentation and build system for producing documentation for
WA3 with support for automatic building on readthedocs.
Note: This is currently a WIP.
Port sysbench workload from WA2.
sysbench is a modular, cross-platform and multi-threaded benchmark tool
for evaluating OS parameters that are important for a system running a
database under intensive load.
If WA is ran without any workloads being specified, previously an index
error was thrown, now check that at least one global workload has been
specified and if not, provide a more helpful error message.
If one wishes to use the docker container with a TTY, then one must
explicitly mount it into the container when starting it. A note
conveying this has been added to the Dockerfile.
Add extra_plugin_paths setting which gets populated from WA_PLUGIN_PATHS
environment variable. This allows specifying additional locations to
scan for WA plugins.
The `install_timeout` variable is used to allow extra time when
installing an apk, if the apk is not present on the host system it
will be pulled back to the host, therefore we should allow extra time
when transferring the file in the other direction as well.
Add process command to run output processors over data produced by
a previous run.
Default processing is to skip the processors that were used during
the run and to process the specified directory only. Options to
use additional processors, force reprocessing and allow a directory
walk to discover additional output directories.
If the http getter is used but a connection is not avalible, when
attempting to fetch the resource index an error will be raised. Now we
ignore the error allowing for the remaining getters to be used.
Port manual workload from WA2. This workload allows using WA to
configure and instrument the target, while letting the user perform
arbitrary actions in place of running a fixed workload.
since Linaro's modification have been merged in upstream version,
we can remove this comment

resistor_values is an array of float and not int as the shunt resistors
are most of the time lower than 1 Ohm.
With kind=list_of_ints, all resistor values are rounded to 0. Replace it
by list_of_numbers
sample_rate_hz is an int used to get sample period and to compute energy.
Changes its type from str to int
With these 2 fixes, the daq instrument has been successfully tested with
NI DAQ6211

Make sure runtime_params and boot_params are to_pod()'d when they get
written, as they are obj_dict's that json serializer does not know how
to handle otherwise.
Ensure that boot and runtime parameters always get initialized to an
obj_dict even when not explicitly specified. This will ensure they get
serialized and deserialized properly.
