This shows more output, such as the internal output generated by the unit
test ("ut") command, which makes it easier to debug issues.

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.

Some unit tests expect the cwd of the sandbox process to be the root
of the source tree. Ensure that requirement is met.

This is required for at least "ut dm" to operate correctly.

Python's coding style docs indicate to use " not ' for docstrings.
test/py has other violations of the coding style docs, since the docs
specify a stranger style than I would expect, but nobody has complained
about those yet:-)

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.
The hook scripts, relay control utilities, and udev rules I use for my
own HW setup are published at https://github.com/swarren/uboot-test-hooks.
See README.md for more details!
