Dear Simon, The discussion is in https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/patch/164491595065.536855.9457820061065514578.stgit@localhost/ You suggested: "We have a means to avoid actually doing the reset, see the reset driver." We need a real reset on the sandbox and no fake reset as already said in the referenced thread. Best regards Heinrich > > Regards, > Simon

Why did it come back? Maybe I'm confused. This is so that we can "cold" reset sandbox so it behaves more consistently to other platforms, yes?

Why? The fake reset is there for use by tests. We don't need this load of Python code at all for sandbox. We should worry about it later. Regards, Simon

Well, isn't this going to make the tests more sandbox-centric then, and then need changes later to be able to test on real hardware?

Yes, but it keeps the sandbox case simple. At present the sandbox tests can run within U-Boot (see the 'ut' command) and I very much want to keep it that way. That is, after all, why I wrote the reset driver. While tests on real hardware have value, I hope that all logic bugs are found on sandbox. Regards, Simon

How does this relate to your thoughts about this patch? The patch enables testing capsule updates including resets. This does not stop running the tests on the sandbox.

I have asked you before to avoid this sort of thing on the mailing list. Sandbox is what we use for unit tests. How is the test run at present on sandbox? My understanding is that you want sandbox to rely on the pytest framework to work...do I have that wrong? Regards, Simon

Yes, it's important to test the code in sandbox before testing it on hardware, to avoid "obvious" oops-it-broke changes, it's still very important to be able to easily run this on real hardware. Ideally, I hope to see updates to the pytest hook repository to flash the hardware via capsule, as well as running a more formal pytest on hardware. To that end, is it not most important to make sandbox look like a real hardware platform, rather than adapt the test to know about special sandbox things? Or am I missing something here and the test shouldn't need changes / special handling to support both sandbox and real hardware, with what you're suggesting?

The title of this patch refers to specific hacks in pytest to handle sandbox, doesn't it? So I think this is around the wrong way...that is in fact my objection. It simply should not be done that way, with special code in pytest, or whatever. It should be possible to run 'ut xxx' and have the test run from start to finish, without any outside influence. Sandbox has a sysreset driver, just like any other board. We can make it do whatever we want...see sandbox_sysreset_request(). We do use pytest to set things up beforehand, or to verify that things worked after the run, but we should not need it to even just run a unit test. In particular, it should not be necessary for sandbox to be restarted by an outside influence. Regards, Simon

Maybe we're talking at cross purposes here, or maybe I misread which sets of tests this is ultimately for. Functionality wise, I'm talking about the capsule update functionality, and I want to ensure that we can have something under test/py/tests/test_efi_capsule/ to update U-Boot for a platform. And that test should be abstracted such that it can run on (a) sandbox (b) qemu as platformX (c) platformX in a HW lab. If that doesn't require changes under test/py/u_boot_console_sandbox.py then, great! I've just been confused.

It should be a unit test, i.e. 'ut xxx' and not require changes in the console handling and should use the sysreset driver to operate. This should test *all* the code of the new feature, including failure modes. As to qemu and other platforms, they are really just going to be happy-path tests. I suggest splitting the reset functionality out so that it happens after the update is ready. Perhaps it is possible for the test itself to be in control of the reset? We don't really need to test that a board can reset, right? If we do, then we are going to need some magic like this patch, but it is quite messy. So please, unit test first. Regards, Simon

I think this UEFI capsule update testcase is to check the capsule file generated by the tool can be handled as we expected. E.g. setting up the EFI variables and the capsule file is found in the specific directory in the ESP etc. (Note that this testcase doesn't check the capsule actually update the firmware itself... which can not be done by sandbox because updated firmware needs to be reloaded from the virtual storage.) > > > that end, is it not most important to make sandbox look like a real > > hardware platform, rather than adapt the test to know about special > > sandbox things?

I agree with this point, yes, this changes the pytest ConsoleBase class for sandbox test.

Hmm, but the capsule update on disk requires to prepare - the capsule file image which is properly composed - the disk which has an EFI system partition - the EFI variables required for the capsule update on disk I guess this is the main reason why the test is written by the script...

What would you mean the 'outside influence'? If you see this section it tells you how to run sandbox tests directly, without pytest: https://u-boot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/develop/tests_sandbox.html#running-sandbox-tests-directly It should be possible to run your tests this way on sandbox, without needing the pytest code. Of course there are exceptions, but most tests work this way and it seems to me that this one can also.

Yes and that is fine, we do that sort of thing in many places. But once the pre-conditions are ready, you should be able to run the unit test from start to finish.
