If more then one of augmentation entries ("augmentations",
"instrumenatation", "output_processors") is specified in the same
config they were being merged into a single entry.
This can cause issues with '~~' (drop everything glyph) being "resolved"
during this merge and therefore not actually used to drop all previous
augmentations.
Union'ing, instead of merging, configs at the same level avoids that.
Note that this is semantically correct, as we're not enforcing
precedence at the same level of config, so merge semantics do not apply.
Add support for "~~" special value that indicates that, when merging
into another set, all values from that set should in fact be dropped.
Apart from the unique merge semantics, "~~" just like any other "~"
value.
- The merge_with and merge_into implementation was reversed. Fix this, so that
it is implemented correctly, i.e. that
a.merge_with(b) === merge(a, b)
a.merge_into(b) === merge(b, a)
- Ensure that in case of merge_into(), a toggle_set is always returned.
Delay the split of augmentations into instruments and output processors
until they are actually being accessed; keep them as a single set until
then. This makes tracking of merges from various configurations sources
easier
- 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.
