Fix warnings reported when running unit tests via pytest.
- Rename TestDevice to MockDevice, so that it is not interpreted as a
test case.
- Fix collections abstract base class imports.
- Add an ini file to ignore the same from "past".
Include missing `flatten_mapping` call in our implementation of
`construct_mapping`. This is performed by a subclass in the default
implementation which was missing in our previous fix.
When attempting to access the message of a exception check not only that
e.args is populated, but also that e.args[0] actually contains
something, before defaulting to str(e).
In newer versions of PyYAML we need to manually specify the `Loader` to
be used as per https://msg.pyyaml.org/load.
`FullLoader` is now the default loader which attempts to avoid arbitrary
code execution, however if we are running an older version where this is
not available default back to the original Loader.
Add a new mix-in class for classes that are serialized to PODs, the aim
of this class is to provide a way to ensure that both the original data
version and the current serialization version are known. When attempting
to de-serialize a POD the serialization version will be compared to the
latest version in WA if not matching will call the appropriate method to
upgrade the pod to a known structure state populating any missing fields
with a sensible default or converting the existing data to the new
format.
- Add copyright headers to files that did not already have them
- Update the year to the last year the file was modified in files with
existing headers.
The ValueError does not given enough information in the case of an empty file
extension. Add a special case to handle files with no extension and
prompt the user.
Fix a regression introduced with Python 3 port -- JSON deserializer
should check for basestring rather than str when deciding whether to try
to decode a custom type.
Add a cpu_mask type to allow for users to use a consistent way of representing a
cpus mask with properties to provide conversions between the various required
forms. The mask can be specified directly as a mask, as a list of cpus indexes
or a sysfs-style string.
Also add support for the type to be serialized/deserialzed for the json
and yaml serializers.
"params" is interpreted differently in section vs workload entires in
the agenda; previously, this was handled in the generic entry
construciton function by examining the ID prefix of the entry to
distinguish between the two.
This is unreliable as the user may specify their own IDs that won't have
the expected prefixes. To handle this, the "params" alias resolution for
sections is now handled in section specific part of entry processing
(workloads are handled autmatically because that is the default for
the corresponding JobConfig config point).
Changing the way target descriptions work from a static mapping to
something that is dynamically generated and is extensible via plugins.
Also moving core target implementation stuff under "framework".
