我正在尝试使用在Ubuntu主机上运行的pySerial来自动测试嵌入式控制器。我可以在终端窗口(例如PuTTY)中输入命令,并全天从EC获得响应。然而,当我尝试使用pySerial程序来做同样的事情时,EC会在一段时间后停止回显命令,就在回显命令的中间。从那时起,EC停止对程序的响应,包括不发送被中断的命令的结果。
如果我终止程序并尝试再次使用终端连接到EC,则EC没有响应。如果发生外部事件,导致EC将输出写入终端,则该信息将正确显示。问题一直存在,直到我重新启动EC——这也会删除问题发生时EC上发生的任何日志。(日志只能通过串行端口访问…)
似乎pySerial正在执行的某些操作导致EC的输入处理停止。我试着输入Ctrl-Q(XON),希望有一些不明显的软件流控制,但这并没有什么区别。我尝试过在程序中发送交替的命令,在发送命令之间发送空行,在命令发送之间插入延迟——但每次处理几个命令后,它都会失效。
这是我目前正在使用的脚本:
import serial
from datetime import datetime
ser = serial.Serial('/dev/ttyUSB0', 115200, timeout=1)
print('Starting up')
# send an empty command to ensure a prompt is displayed
ser.write(b'\r\n')
commandToSend = 'battery current'
failed = 0
running = True
while running:
while running:
# read from the EC until a timeout occurs with no data available
try:
# wait for the EC prompt
rcvData = ser.read_until(b' ec> ')
now = datetime.now().time()
print('{}\tRead from device: "{}"'.format(now, rcvData))
decoded = rcvData.decode('ascii')
if len(decoded) == 0:
# timeout, nothing read from EC, send next command
failed += 1
break
# normalize line terminations then split the data into lines
lines = decoded.replace('\r\r\n','\r\n').split('\r\n')
for line in lines:
print('{}{}'.format(' '*34, line))
break
except KeyboardInterrupt:
print('\nKeyboard interrupt, aborting')
running = False
break
except Exception as e:
print(e) # this branch never executes, from my observation
pass
now = datetime.now().time()
if failed > 1:
print('{}\tCommunication with the EC has failed'.format(now))
break
if running:
# send the command when there's no data to read
print('{}\tWriting: "{}\\r\\n"'.format(now, commandToSend))
ser.write('{}\r\n'.format(commandToSend).encode())
ser.flush()
运行上述脚本的典型结果是:
$ ./ec-uart-test.py

除了破解EC并在其上安装硬件分析器之外,我还应该尝试其他方法来让这些代码正常工作吗?
