Make sure when migrating sshd to root cgroup also migrate their
children, including the bash for the wa session. So the subsequent
processes kicked off from that shell can be taskset to any cluster.
Matplotlib defautls to the GTK backend. This can cause problems when
running in a headless session (e.g. over SSH). Since energy_model
istrument generates PNG plots, rather than rendering directly to UI, it
doesn't actually need GTK; set backend to AGG so that energy_model works
in headless environments.
This instrument can be used to generate an energy model for a device
based on collected power and performance measurments. The instrument
produces a C file with an energy model and an accompanying HTML report.
This instrument is very different from other instrumentation, as it
actually generates the run queue on the fly based on the operating
frequencies and idle states it discovers on the device. The agenda needs
only to contain the single "base" spec that defines the workload to be
used for performance measurement.
cpuidle module implements cpuidle state discovery, query and
manipulation for a Linux device. This replaces the more primitive
get_cpuidle_states method of LinuxDevice.
Renamed APIs (and added a couple of new ones) to be more consistent:
"core" APIs take a core name as the parameter (e.g. "a15") or whatever
is listed in core_names for that device.
"cluster" APIs take a numeric cluster ID (eg. 0) as the parameter. These
get mapped using core_clusters for that device.
"cpu" APIs take a cpufreq cpu ID as a parameter. These could be
integers, e.g. 0, or full string id, e.g. "cpu0".
integer and boolen are defined in wlauto.utils.types; they perform more
intuitive conversions from other types, particularly strings, so are
more suitable than int and bool for parameters. If, for whatever reason,
native types are in fact desired for a Parameter, this behavior can be
supressed by specifying convert_types=False when defining the parameter.
- list_to_range and range_to_list convert between lists of integers
and corresponding range strings, e.g. between [0,1,2,4] and '0-2,4'
- list_to_mask and mask_to_list convert between lists of integers and
corresponding integer masks, e.g. between [0,1,2,4] and 0x17

- added caseless_string type. This behaves exactly like a string, except
this ignores case in comparisons. It does, however, preserve case. E.g.
>>> s = caseless_string('Test')
>>> s == 'test'
True
>>> print s
Test
- added list_of type generating function. This allows to dynamically
generate type-safe list types based on an existing type. E.g.
>>> list_of_bool = list_of(bool)
>>> list_of_bool(['foo', 0, 1, '', True])
[True, False, True, False, True]
- Update core_names Device Parameter to be of type caseless_string
- added the ability to run based on time, rather than number of
requests.
- added a parameter to taskset to specific core(s).

A "please rate me" dialog occasionally pops but when returning to the
initial screen (when re-running the test). The check to dismiss it
wasn't being done at the right time, so it was still preventing
mutli-times execution. This commit resolves that issue.
"times" parameter didn't work properly for version 5 because an extra
back button press was required due to UI changes from previous versions.
This commit adds the button press.
On some systems the temporary directory may still be "busy" after WA is
don't with it. Since it's just an empty dir and it will be reused on the
subsequent runs; do check if rm -rf succeeded.
When the merging logic was updated to preserve duplicates within the
same list, it inadvertently broke the logic that removed items marked
for removal with a '~'. This commit rectifies that.
Note to self: merging functions are doing *way* to much; they should be
refactored into several individual function and config should be
resolved in distinct stages.
If list parameter values contained duplicates, those got removed when
merging parameter values from different sources. This commit fixes that
behavor, so that duplcates that appear within the *same* list are
preserved.
Keep duplicates in lists when merging device_config dict from agenda
with the rest of the config; This will ensure that core_name sand
core_clusters aren't reduced to just unique elements.
- raise an error if an agenda contains duplicate keys (by default PyYAML
will silently ignore this)
- raise an error if config section in an agenda is not dict-like
(before, this was allowed to propagate and relsulted an a traceback
further down the line).
Very old versions of IPython do not have IPython.version_info attribute
that the ultls module relied on. This commit changes it to use the more
standard __version__ attriute that is present in all versions.
check_output will ignore error code 1 returned by telemetry execution,
as this happens when individiual sub-tests and partial results may, and
should, still be extracted.
Adding a parater to wlauto.utils.misc.check_output to specify that it
should ignore certain error codes when they are returned by the
subprocess and not raise them as errors.
Commit 2276ae0c5b ("Fixing config processing for extensions with
non-identifier names.") broke customizing the trace-cmd instrumentation
from the agenda. With an agenda like:
config:
instrumentation: [trace-cmd, delay]
trace_events: ['thermal*']
trace_buffer_size: 28000
trace_events and trace_buffer_size get added to the RunConfiguration's
_raw_config under the trace-cmd name, but then when it's looked up in
_finalize_config_list(), the dictionary is actually looked up using
identifier(extname), i.e. 'trace_cmd'. Fix this by adding the user's
configuration using identifier(name) as well.
run_cell() becomes more complicated when we add ipython version 3
support which upsets pylint because there are "too many
branches (15/12)". Factor out part of the function to make pylint
happy.
The kernel may go idle before it processes the next input, which break
the while=True loop in run_cell() early. Wait for an acknowledgement
of the input we've sent to the kernel before considering an idle
message to mean that the cell has been parsed.
The internal ABI for ipython has changed between ipython version 2 and
3. In its current state, the result processor only works with IPython
version 2, so fail if the user wants to use the result processor with
the wrong version.
Abstract the ipython interface to a file so that we can make it support
versions 2 and 3 at the same time.
The default value for buffer_size_file contained a path under "/d/",
which is an Android-specific alias for "/sys/kernel/debug". This commit
updates the default value to use the system-agnostic path.
Internally, WA expects extension names to be valid Python identifiers.
When this is not the case, conversion takes place when loading
configuration for the extension (e.g. "trace-cmd" gets converted to
"trace_cmd").
The conversion is intended to be transparent to the user, so
configuration stores values as they are provided by the user, however it
needs to perform the conversion internally, e.g. when querying
ExtensionLoader. This conversion was missing when performing a lookup of
one of the internal structures, which was causing earlier-collected
settings to not be propagated into the final config.
Updating SysfsExtractor with a parameter to explicitly enable/disable
tempfs caching. Previously, this was determined entirely by whether the
device is rooted.
This result processor displays a desktop notification when the run
finishes. It's useful when you are running a long agenda in WA and want
to be notified when the results are available.
The param documentation states that for a boolean, "kind" should be
"as_bool" from wlauto.utils.misc, but there is no "as_bool". Currently,
workload automation automatically converts native python types like bool
and int to workload automation specific ones. Remove this bit from the
documentation as it's not true any more.

The error message will now contain the offending extension (either
package name or full path to extension file) if a Python error occurs
when ExtensionLoader attempts to load it.
- connect() to device before issuing the initial reboot, as soft reset
requires a device connection.
- boot() has been implemented to wait properly for the device to reboot
after reset.
- port now defaults to 22 rather than being left unset, as need
something to connect to when polling for device after reboot.
- Only use -P option for scp when port is *not* 22; as that option
appears to cause intermittent issues with default scp on Ubuntu 12.04
On some devices, sudo presents a different prompt when asking for a
password. All the prompt to be specified in device configruation to
handle such cases.
Make the WorkloadError() message clearer if the sysbench
binary cannot be found on the device and host.
Also make trivial fixes to improve descriptions and fix
spelling errors.

terminalsize was loaded from a location added to sys.path during
bootstrap. This appeared to be causing import issues. There is no longer
a good reason for terminalsize to be loaded that way, so just moved it
under wlauto.utils so that it can be loaded normally.
