Overview
This package contains functional tests for the generic 'fbdev' frame buffer
devices for Linux mobile platforms.
Requirements
Running the tests in the package requires
* linux >= 2.6.15
* GNU libc >= 2.1
Optionally, a min test framework module will be built if it is present.
Building the package
The package should build cleanly with GCC 4.x with the mentioned libraries.
The preferred way is to use the Debian packaging tools for the build; these
will run Autotools for configuration and makefile generation.
The package builds (from the source tree root) with
$ dpkg-buildpackage
( you may need some combination of '-rfakeroot', '-uc', '-us', etc, depending
on your system configuration )
Alternatively, the packagin can be skipped by just running with Autotools:
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ make
Running the tests
USAGE: blts-fbdev-tests [-l mylog.txt] [-e test1,test2...] [-en "my test"] [-s] [-?] [-nc] [-C variation_config.cnf] [-v]
-l: Used log file, default blts-fbdev-log.txt
-e: Execute single or multiple selected tests, for example -e 1,4,5.
-en: Execute test by name, for example -en "My test X"
-s: Show list of all tests
-C: Used parameter configuration file
-?: This message
-nc: Do not output log to terminal
-v: Verbose logging (default)
-vv: Very verbose logging, with trace information
Test cases
* Core-Framebuffer read frame buffer information with ioctl
Reads variant and fixed screen information from frame buffer device(s).
* Core-Framebuffer set blanking levels
Tests each of the blanking levels on all configured framebuffer
devices.
* Core-Framebuffer 1-pixel uncached read
Performance test of reading visible framebuffer pixel by pixel. Uses
rusage to estimate the CPU usage %. Prints information about the test
and framebuffer into the log and standard output. Done for all
configured framebuffer devices.
* Core-Framebuffer 1-pixel uncached write
Performance test of writing into visible framebuffer pixel by pixel.
Uses rusage to estimate the CPU usage %. Prints information about the
test and framebuffer device into the log and standard output. Done
for all configured framebuffer devices.
* Core-Framebuffer 1-pixel uncached modify
Performance test of both reading and vriting into visible framebuffer
pixel by pixel. Uses rusage to estimate the CPU usage %. Prints
information about the test and framebuffer into the log and and
stadard output. Done for all configured framebuffer devices.
* Core-Framebuffer fullscreen buffer read
Performance test of reading a fullscreen framebuffer at once. Uses
rusage to estimate the CPU usage %. Prints information about the test
and framebuffer into the log and standard output. Done for all
configured devices.
* Core-Framebuffer fullscreen buffer write
Performance test of writing into a fullscreen framebuffer at once.
Uses rusage to estimate the CPU usage %. Prints information about the
test and framebuffer into the log and standard output. Done for all
configured devices.
* Core-Framebuffer fullscreen buffer modify
Performance test of both reading and writing into a fullscreen
framebuffer at once. Uses rusage to estimate the CPU usage %. Prints
information about the test and framebuffer into the log and standard
output. Done for all configured devices.
* Core-Backlight verify backlight levels
Verify backlight system's backlight level limits against configured
limits. Tests the limit values, by using the actual limit and going
one step over it.
* Core-Backlight linear backlight level changes
Linearly goes through all values between configured minimum and maximum
values, by first going from min -> max and then from max -> min.
NOTE: This case can timeout if the min and max are very big. The case
sleeps for two seconds between each step!
* Core-Backlight logarithmic backlight level changes
Goes through all values between configured minimum and maximum
values, by going from min -> max. The values are increased by following
pattern: (max light / log10 (max light)) * log10 (between min and max)
NOTE: This case can timeout if the min and max are very big. The case
sleeps for two seconds between each step!
