From 0da3eefcc332fffea0b229a9d2bceeb1643e8ec3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Martin Braun Date: Tue, 16 Jan 2018 13:10:37 -0800 Subject: mpm/mpmd: Report device state using get_init_status() and verify When trying to run init(), mpmd will first query the initialization status of the MPM device. If it is found to be in a bad state, it will not go forward with initialization, but instead print the error message. --- mpm/python/usrp_mpm/periph_manager/base.py | 8 +++++++- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'mpm/python/usrp_mpm/periph_manager/base.py') diff --git a/mpm/python/usrp_mpm/periph_manager/base.py b/mpm/python/usrp_mpm/periph_manager/base.py index 5b30bf1ec..93edb36ce 100644 --- a/mpm/python/usrp_mpm/periph_manager/base.py +++ b/mpm/python/usrp_mpm/periph_manager/base.py @@ -377,11 +377,17 @@ class PeriphManagerBase(object): """ Returns the status of the device after its initialization (that happens at startup, not that happens when init() is called). + The status is a tuple of 2 strings, the first is either "true" or + "false", depending on whether or not the device initialization was + successful, and the second is an arbitrary error string.
