binman: Run tests concurrently

2018-10-08T13:34:34Z

At present the tests run one after the other using a single CPU. This is not very efficient. Bring in the concurrencytest module and run the tests concurrently, using one process for each CPU by default. A -P option allows this to be overridden, which is necessary for code-coverage to function correctly. This requires fixing a few tests which are currently not fully independent. At some point we might consider doing this across all pytests in U-Boot. There is a pytest version that supports specifying the number of processes to use, but it did not work for me.

patman: Don't clear progress in tout unless it was used

2018-10-08T13:34:34Z

At present calling Uninit() always called ClearProgress() which outputs a \r character as well as spaces to remove any progress information on the line. This can mess up the normal output of binman and other tools. Fix this by outputing this only when progress information has actually been previous written. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

tools: Set an initial value for indir

2018-10-08T13:34:34Z

This variable is not documented or set up in the module. Fix this. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

patman: Handle unicode in _ProjectConfigParser tests

2018-10-08T13:34:34Z

With Python 2.7.15rc1, ConfigParser.SafeConfigParser has unfortunately started returning unicode, for unknown reasons. Adjust the code to handle this by converting everything to unicode. We cannot convert things to ASCII since email addresses may be encoded with UTF-8. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Support adding files

2018-09-29T17:49:35Z

In some cases it is useful to add a group of files to the image and be able to access them at run-time. Of course it is possible to generate the binman config file with a set of blobs each with a filename. But for convenience, add an entry type which can do this. Add required support (for adding nodes and string properties) into the state module. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

patman: Detect missing tools and report them

2018-09-28T17:09:01Z

When tools are needed but not present, at present we just get an error which can be confusing for the user. Try to be helpful by reporting the tool as missing and suggesting a possible remedy. Also update the Run() method to support this. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

patman: Correct unit test failure

2018-08-08T11:49:36Z

A recent rename of the function did not rename the test file. Fix this. Fixes: 12308b128fa (lib: fdtdec: Rename routine fdtdec_setup_memory_size()) Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

patman: Show the current directory in GetInputFilename()

2018-08-01T22:30:48Z

When this fails it is useful to see the current directory, since U-Boot's build system will typically change into the output directory during the build. Add this information to the error. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

patman: Add a few more helpers to the tools library

2018-08-01T22:30:48Z

Add functions to read and write a file, looking through a list of search paths to find it. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

patman: Allow test commands to fall back to real ones

2018-08-01T22:30:48Z

Tests use the 'test_result' feature to return a predetermined command result for particular commands. The avoids needing to have the real command available just to run a test. It works by calling the function provided by the test, to get the value. However sometimes the test does need to run the real command. Allow it to fall back to do this when the function does not return a result. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass
