After a test has failed, test/py drains the U-Boot console log to ensure
that any relevant output is captured. At this point, we don't care about
detecting any additional errors, since the test is already known to have
failed, and U-Boot will be restarted. To ensure that the test cleanup code
is not interrupted, and can correctly terminate the log sections for the
failed test, ignore any exception that occurs while reading the U-Boot
console output during this limited period of time.

When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.
In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.
This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

It can be useful to record how long tests take; this can help debug slow
running test systems or track changes in performance over time. Enhance
the test system to record timestamps while running test:
- Whenever a new log file section is started.
- After U-Boot is started and communication has been established.
- After each host or U-Boot command is executed.

Sending CTRL-C to QEMU's stdin aborts the process, even if stdin is being
used as a serial port (at least in the raspi2 machine with "qemu -serial
stdin"). Avoid sending CTRL-C to U-Boot to prevent it exiting.
I'd originally used CTRL-C to make sure that if the character used to
abort autoboot ended up being treated as part of a command as well, it'd
abort command entry and return the prompt to a known state. However, this
is not needed, since aborting the autoboot eats the character used to do
that.

The initial boot of U-Boot happens within the context of the first test
that needs to access the U-Boot console when there is no existing
connection. This keeps all activity nestled within test execution, which
fits well into the pytest model. However, this mingles the U-Boot startup
logs with the execution of some test(s), which hides find the boundary
between the two.
To solve this, wrap the "Starting U-Boot" logic into a separate log
section. If the user wishes, they can simply collapse this log section
when viewing the HTML log, to concentrate purely on the test's own
interaction.

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.

Many error situations in U-Boot print the message:

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
with command output rather than gathering all output prior to the shell
prompt, do not currently look for bad patterns in console output. This
patch makes sure that bad patterns are honored everywhere.
One benefit of this change is that if U-Boot sandbox fails to start up,
the error message it emits can be caught immediately, rather than relying
on a (long) timeout when waiting for the expected signon message and/or
command prompt.

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.
Solve this by explicitly draining (and hence logging) the U-Boot output
in the case of failed tests.

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.
