Carlosgg b41cfea02a extmod/modussl_mbedtls: Implement cert_reqs and cadata arguments.
Add cert_reqs and cadata keyword-args to ssl.wrap_socket() and
ssl.CERT_NONE, ssl.CERT_OPTIONAL, ssl.CERT_REQUIRED constants to allow
certificate validation.

CPython doesn't accept cadata in ssl.wrap_socket(), but it does in
SSLContext.load_verify_locations(), so we use this name to at least match
the same name in load_verify_locations().

Add docs for these new arguments, as well as docs for the existing
server_hostname argument which is important for certificate validation.

Tests are added as well.

MicroPython Test Suite

This directory contains tests for various functionality areas of MicroPython. To run all stable tests, run "run-tests.py" script in this directory.

Tests of capabilities not supported on all platforms should be written to check for the capability being present. If it is not, the test should merely output 'SKIP' followed by the line terminator, and call sys.exit() to raise SystemExit, instead of attempting to test the missing capability. The testing framework (run-tests.py in this directory, test_main.c in qemu_arm) recognizes this as a skipped test.

There are a few features for which this mechanism cannot be used to condition a test. The run-tests.py script uses small scripts in the feature_check directory to check whether each such feature is present, and skips the relevant tests if not.

Tests are generally verified by running the test both in MicroPython and in CPython and comparing the outputs. If the output differs the test fails and the outputs are saved in a .out and a .exp file respectively. For tests that cannot be run in CPython, for example because they use the machine module, a .exp file can be provided next to the test's .py file. A convenient way to generate that is to run the test, let it fail (because CPython cannot run it) and then copy the .out file (but not before checking it manually!)

When creating new tests, anything that relies on float support should go in the float/ subdirectory. Anything that relies on import x, where x is not a built-in module, should go in the import/ subdirectory.

perf_bench

The perf_bench directory contains some performance benchmarks that can be used to benchmark different MicroPython firmwares or host ports.

The runner utility is run-perfbench,py. Execute ./run-perfbench.py --help for a full list of command line options.

Benchmarking a target

To run tests on a firmware target using pyboard.py, run the command line like this:

./run-perfbench.py -p -d /dev/ttyACM0 168 100
  • -p indicates running on a remote target via pyboard.py, not the host.
  • -d PORTNAME is the serial port, /dev/ttyACM0 is the default if not provided.
  • 168 is value N, the approximate CPU frequency in MHz (in this case Pyboard V1.1 is 168MHz). It's possible to choose other values as well: lower values like 10 will run much the tests much quicker, higher values like 1000 will run much longer.
  • 100 is value M, the approximate heap size in kilobytes (can get this from import micropython; micropython.mem_info() or estimate it). It's possible to choose other values here too: lower values like 10 will run shorter/smaller tests, and higher values will run bigger tests. The maximum value of M is limited by available heap, and the tests are written so the "recommended" value is approximately the upper limit.

Benchmarking the host

To benchmark the host build (unix/Windows), run like this:

./run-perfbench.py 2000 10000

The output of perfbench is a list of tests and times/scores, like this:

The numbers across each line are times and scores for the test:

  • Runtime average (microseconds, lower is better)
  • Runtime standard deviation as a percentage
  • Score average (units depend on the benchmark, higher is better)
  • Score standard deviation as a percentage

Comparing performance

Usually you want to know if something is faster or slower than a reference. To do this, copy the output of each run-perfbench.py run to a text file.

This can be done multiple ways, but one way on Linux/macOS is with the tee utility: ./run-perfbench.py -p 168 100 | tee pyb-run1.txt

Once you have two files with output from two different runs (maybe with different code or configuration), compare the runtimes with ./run-perfbench.py -t pybv-run1.txt pybv-run2.txt or compare scores with ./run-perfbench.py -s pybv-run1.txt pybv-run2.txt:

> ./run-perfbench.py -s pyb-run1.txt pyb-run2.txt
diff of scores (higher is better)

Note in particular the error percentages at the end of each line. If these are high relative to the percentage difference then it indicates high variability in the test runs, and the absolute difference value is unreliable. High error percentages are particularly common on PC builds, where the host OS may influence test run times. Increasing the N value may help average this out by running each test longer.
