The existing regex simply ensures that the captured version string doesn't
go past the end of a line. We really want to grab as much as possible. Do
this by explicitly including a ) character at the end of the regex to
match the last character of the version test.
Signed-off-by: Stephen Warren <swarren@nvidia.com>
A regex match object's .end() value is already the index after the match,
not the index of the last character in the match, so there's no need to
add 1 to point past the match.

Implement three improvements to the HTML log file:
- Ability to expand/contract sections. All passing sections are contracted
at file load time so the user can concentrate on issues requiring
action.
- The overall status report is copied to the top of the log for easy
access.
- Add links from the status report to the test logs, for easy navigation.
This all relies on Javascript and the jquery library. If the user doesn't
have Javascript enabled, or jquery can't be downloaded, the log should
look and behave identically to how it did before this patch.
A few notes on the diff:
- A few more 'with log.section("xxx")' were added, so that all stream
blocks are kept within a section block for consistent HTML entity
nesting structure. This changed indentation in a few places, making
the diff look slightly larger.
- HTML entity IDs are cleaned up. We assign simple incrementing integer
IDs now, rather than using mangled test names which were possibly
invalid.
- Sections and streams now use common CSS class names (in addition to the
current separate class names) to more easily share the new behaviour.
This also reduces the CSS file size since rules don't need to be
duplicated.
- An "OK" status is logged after some external command executions so that
make and flash steps are auto-contracted at log file load time, assuming
they passed.

The test/py/test.py wrapper script catches exceptions thrown when
exec()ing py.test in order to print a helpful error message. However,
the exception handling code squashes the exception and so the script
exits with a non-zero exit code, leading callers to believe that it
passed. Fix this.

Implement command--line option --gdbserver COMM, which does two things:
a) Run the sandbox process under gdbserver, using COMM as gdbserver's
communication channel.
b) Disables all timeouts, so that if U-Boot is halted under the debugger,
tests don't fail. If the user gives up in the middle of a debugging
session, they can simply CTRL-C the test script to abort it.
This allows easy debugging of test failures without having to manually
re-create the failure conditions. Usage is:
Window 1:
./test/py/test.py --bd sandbox --gdbserver localhost:1234
Window 2:
gdb ./build-sandbox/u-boot -ex 'target remote localhost:1234'
When using this option, it likely makes sense to use pytest's -k option
to limit the set of tests that are executed.
Simply running U-Boot directly under gdb (rather than gdbserver) was
also considered. However, this was rejected because:
a) gdb's output would then be processed by the test script, and likely
confuse it causing false failures.
b) pytest by default hides stdout from tests, which would prevent the
user from interacting with gdb.
While gdb can be told to redirect the debugee's stdio to a separate
PTY, this would appear to leave gdb's stdio directed at the test
scripts and the debugee's stdio directed elsewhere, which is the
opposite of the desired effect. Perhaps some complicated PTY muxing
and process hierarchy could invert this. However, the current scheme
is simple to implement and use, so it doesn't seem worth complicating
matters.
c) Using gdbserver allows arbitrary debuggers to be used, even those with
a GUI. If the test scripts invoked the debugger themselves, they'd have
to know how to execute arbitary applications. While the user could hide
this all in a wrapper script, this feels like extra complication.
An interesting future idea might be a --gdb-screen option, which could
spawn both U-Boot and gdb separately, and spawn the screen into a newly
created window under screen. Similar options could be envisaged for
creating a new xterm/... too.
--gdbserver currently only supports sandbox, and not real hardware.
That's primarily because the test hooks are responsible for all aspects of
hardware control, so there's nothing for the test scripts themselves can
do to enable gdbserver on real hardware. We might consider introducing a
separate --disable-timeouts option to support use of debuggers on real
hardware, and having --gdbserver imply that option.

Currently, bad patterns are only honored when executing a shell command.
Other cases, such as the initial boot-up of U-Boot or when interacting

patch makes sure that bad patterns are honored everywhere.
One benefit of this change is that if U-Boot sandbox fails to start up,

When pytest generates the name for parametrized tests, simple parameter
values (ints, strings) get used directly, but more complex values such
as dicts are not handled. This yields test names such as:
dfu[env__usb_dev_port0-env__dfu_config0]
dfu[env__usb_dev_port0-env__dfu_config1]
Add some code to extract a custom fixture ID from the fixture values, so
that we end up with meaningful names such as:
dfu[micro_b-emmc]
dfu[devport2-ram]
If the boardenv file doesn't define custom names, the code falls back to
the old algorithm.

The existing net test executes a list of commands supplied by boardenv
variable env__net_pre_commands. The idea was that boardenv would know
whether the Ethernet device was attached to USB, PCI, ... and hence was
the best place to put any commands required to probe the device.
However, this approach doesn't scale well when attempting to use a single
boardenv across multiple branches of U-Boot, some of which require "pci
enum" to enumerate PCI and others of which don't, or don't /yet/ simply
because various upstream changes haven't been merged down.
This patch updates the test to require that the boardenv state which HW
features are required for Ethernet to work, and lets the test itself map
that knowledge to the set of commands to execute. Since this mapping is
part of the test script, which is part of the U-Boot code/branch, this
approach is more scalable. It also feels cleaner, since again boardenv
is only providing data, rather than test logic.

The DFU test requests U-Boot configure its USB controller in device mode,
then waits for the host machine to enumerate the USB device and create a
device node for it. However, this wait can be fooled if the USB device
node already exists before the test starts, e.g. if some previous software
stack already configured the USB controller into device mode and never
de-configured it. This "previous software stack" could even be another
test/py test, if U-Boot's own USB teardown does not operate correctly. If
this happens, dfu-util may be run before U-Boot is ready to serve DFU
commands, which may cause false test failures.
Enhance the dfu test to fail if the device node exists before it is
expected to.

test/py contains logic to detect the target crashing and rebooting by
searching the console output for a U-Boot signon message, which will
presumably be emitted when the system boots after the crash/reset.
Currently, this logic only searches for the exact signon message that
was printed by the U-Boot version under test, upon the assumption that
binary is written into flash, and hence will be the version booted after
any reset. However, this is not a valid assumption; some test setups
download the U-Boot-under-test into RAM and boot it from there, and in
such a scenario an arbitrary U-Boot version may be located in flash and
hence run after any reset.
Fix the reset detection logic to match any U-Boot signon message. This
prevents false negatives.

Tests may fail for a number of reasons, and in particular for reasons
other than a timeout waiting for U-Boot to print expected data. If the
last operation that a failed test performs is not waiting for U-Boot to
print something, then any trailing output from U-Boot during that test's
operation will not be logged as part of that test, but rather either
along with the next test, or even thrown away, potentiall hiding clues
re: the test failure reason.

Prior to this change, U-Boot was lazilly (re-)spawned if/when a test
attempted to interact with it, and no active connection existed. This
approach was simple, yet had the disadvantage that U-Boot might be
spawned in the middle of a test function, e.g. after the test had already
performed actions such as creating data files, etc. In that case, this
could cause the log to contain the sequence (1) some test logs, (2)
U-Boot's boot process, (3) the rest of that test's logs. This isn't
optimally readable. This issue will affect the upcoming DFU and enhanced
UMS tests.
This change converts u_boot_console to be a function-scoped fixture, so
that pytest attempts to re-create the object for each test invocation.
This allows the fixture factory function to ensure that U-Boot is spawned
prior to every test. In practice, the same object is returned each time
so there is essentially no additional overhead due to this change.
This allows us to remove:
- The explicit ensure_spawned() call from test_sleep, since the core now
ensures that the spawn happens before the test code is executed.
- The laxy calls to ensure_spawned() in the u_boot_console_*
implementations.
The one downside is that test_env's "state_ttest_env" fixture must be
converted to a function-scoped fixture too, since a module-scoped fixture
cannot use a function-scoped fixture. To avoid overhead, we use the same
trick of returning the same object each time.

This tool aims to test U-Boot by executing U-Boot shell commands using the
console interface. A single top-level script exists to execute or attach
to the U-Boot console, run the entire script of tests against it, and
summarize the results. Advantages of this approach are:
- Testing is performed in the same way a user or script would interact
with U-Boot; there can be no disconnect.
- There is no need to write or embed test-related code into U-Boot itself.
It is asserted that writing test-related code in Python is simpler and
more flexible that writing it all in C.
- It is reasonably simple to interact with U-Boot in this way.
A few simple tests are provided as examples. Soon, we should convert as
many as possible of the other tests in test/* and test/cmd_ut.c too.
