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
- Two different parameters may now have the same global alias as long as
their types match
- `extension_asset` resource getter now picks up the path to the mouted
filer from ``remote_assets_path`` global setting.
Added two commands to WA to record and replay input events using revent.
As part of this also added the ability to get a device model from
android and linux device. This may need to be improved in the future.
Added:
get_binary_path: Checks binary_directory for the wanted binary, if
if its not there, it will use which to find a
system one. returns the full path
install_if_needed: will install a binary only if it is not present.
Changes:
- Busybox is now deployed to non-rooted devices
- is_installed has now been removed as the new functions supersede it
- binaries will now always be installed to `binaries_directory` and
not system folders.
- updated workloads to use these new functions
- rt-app and sysbench might still need work
When report_on_target option is set, binary trace will be "reported"
into a text version on the target device. This removes the need for
trace-cmd to be installed on the host, in which case that should not be
reported as an error.
When IO is heavily loaded, the impact of IO schedulers on App launch
time varies. To measure the impact, added io_stress and io_scheduler two
parameters and related jinja2 blocks.

Since cleanup test block is defined in the device_script.template, the
value of cleanup is needed to render the template properly.

Juno's bootargs parameter specifies the kernel boot arguments as a
sigle string. However, when it is passed into _boot_via_uboot, it was
expanded as a mapping, causing an error. This fixes that boneheaded
mistake...
As of Android 6.0, apps can request permissions at runtime. If the
target device is running Android 6.0+ these permissions are now automatically
granted.
- Summary metrics are now calculated from the contents of energy.csv and
added to the overall results.
- Added a new "strict" parameter. If this is set to False, the device
check during validation is omitted.
In order to execute as root, the command string gets echo'd into so;
previusly, double quotes were used in echo, which caused any veriables
in the command string to be expanded _before_ it was echoed.
