- android/workload: emoved an extra bank line between methods
- trace_cmd: define member attribute inside __init__
- adb_shell: ignore pylint warning about too many branches in this case
The timeout for the pulling the trace file after the run is being set
based on the time for which the trace was collected. For workloads with
short execution time, but large number of events, the resulting timeout
might be too short. To deal with this, do not let the timout be shorter
than 1 minute.
Depending on the kernel, sched_switch events may be formatted one of two
different ways in the text output. Previously, we've only handled the
"old" format. This commit updates the parser to handle the new format as
well.
This patch tidies up the benchmark code to bring it in line with the
style used in Workload Automation in general. Additionally, the
results from sub-benchmarks are now directly written to a file on the
device as opposed to processing the standard output/error from the
benchmark, which was error prone.
applaunch creates and deploys an auxilary script in order to collect
precise timings. This script invoked busybox with the assumption that it
is in PATH.
Since recent changes mean that it is no longer deployed to /system/bin,
the busybox in not found. With this commit, the full path to busybox
will be passed into the script's template.
If the specified agenda argument is not found in the file system, WA
assumes it is the name of a workload and would then raise an "extension
not found error", which may be confusing if the user's intension was to
specify a path.
Now, WA will first check that neither path separator, nor a '.' are
present in the agenda argument before assuming it is a workload name, and
will provide a less confusing error in that case.
- Deal with the dropped connection on issuing "reboot"
- Introduced a fixed initial delay before polling for connection to
avoid re-connecting to adevice that is still in the process of
shutting down.
cpustate result processor generates a view of the cpu subsystem power
state during execution of a workload from cpu_idle and cpu_frequency
ftraces. There exists a period before the first events in those
categories are seen where the state of the cpu subsystem is (partially)
unknown and it is reported as such by the result processor.
Unknown state usually exists for a relatively short period of time and
is generally not a big deal. For certain kinds of workloads, however, it
may constitude a significant protion of the trace.
Changes in this commit attempt to deal with this by a) reading starting
cpu frequencies and writing them into the trace, and b) nudging each
core to bring it out of idle; this happens before the start marker, so
that the system state between the markers should be completely known.
Previously you could have `override` set to True on parameters that
only existed in the current scope.
Now if you try to override a parameter that doesn't exist higher up
in the hiarchy you will get a ValueError.
Previously if parameters with the same names and override set to True
were added to an extension at the same level one would silently
override the other.
This is no longer the case and an error will be show instead.
Also added tests to check that this is handeled correctly
