As discussed in #1039, I want to split feature/hybris branch into
smaller sensible pull requests.
This is the first one that simply adds android-headers and libhybris
packaging. libhybris allows apps compiled with glibc (musl in our case)
to load Android libraries that utilize bionic libc, which is used to
load proprietary userspace drivers.
The package isn't very useful on its own and requires core (non-UI/Java)
Android services to be running in some way - either in Halium-style LXC
container or in same root as main OS with modified init (Mer/Sailfish do
it this way). Both ways are tested to work in postmarketOS.
libhybris also includes some tests, not all of them are known to be
representative, but test_vibrator and test_egl_configs are usually good
indicators if system is set up correctly.
* Progress can be followed in #1206
* Kernel boots with device tree from LineageOS and can
be installed by android recovery zip
* Networking comes up at boot but there's not display yet
* As discussed in IRC/matrix, we're removing `linux-postmarketos-lts`
for now. The kernel isn't used right now, and we save lots of
maintenance effort with not updating it every week or so.
* new config option `"kernel"` with possible values:
`"downstream", "mainline", "stable"` (downstream is always
`linux-$devicename`)
* ask for the kernel during `pmbootstrap init` if the device package
has kernel subpackages and install it in `_install.py`
* postmarketos-mkinitfs: display note instead of exit with error when
the `deviceinfo_dtb` file is missing (because we expect it to be
missing for downstream kernels)
* device-sony-amami:
* add kernel subpackages for downstream, mainline
* set `deviceinfo_dtb`
* device-qemu-amd64: add kernel subpackages for stable, lts, mainline
* test cases and test data for new functions
* test case that checks all aports for right usage of the feature:
* don't mix specifying kernels in depends *and* subpackages
* 1 kernel in depends is maximum
* kernel subpackages must have a valid name
* Test if devices packages reference at least one kernel
* Remove `_build_device_depends_note()` which informs the user that
`--ignore-depends` can be used with device packages to avoid building
the kernel. The idea was to make the transition easier after a change
we did months ago, and now the kernel doesn't always get built before
building the device package so it's not relevant anymore.
* pmb/chroot/other.py:
* Add autoinstall=True to kernel_flavors_installed(). When the flag
is set, the function makes sure that at least one kernel for the
device is installed.
* Remove kernel_flavor_autodetect() function, wherever it was used,
it has been replaced with kernel_flavors_installed()[0].
* pmb.helpers.frontend.py: remove code to install at least one kernel,
kernel_flavors_installed() takes care of that now.
* Specify a device tree binary file for p4wifi kernel
Previously the p4wifi kernel was using Android patches which append the
dtb to zImage in the kernel makefile.
Now follow mainline kernel convention of leaving the zImage and dtb
separate. Follow postmarketOS convention of specifying dtb file in
deviceinfo.
* Use linux-postmarketos-mainline APKBUILD build functions for p4wifi
* Update linux-samsung-p4wifi to kernel 4.16
- Use mainline broadcom bluetooth hci driver
- Use mainline atmel_mxt_ts driver
- Use mainline stmpe811 mfd driver and add stmpe811 ADC block
As noted in commit 255c715624
`/var/cache/distfiles` is writable by everyone. It is supposed to be
writable only by `root` and by the `abuild` group (in which we put the
`pmos` user already for building packages).
Changes:
* `pmb.build.init()`: make `/var/cache/distfiles` writable only by
members of the `abuild` group (and root)
* Increase workfolder version to 2
* Add migration code that fixes the permissions for existing work
folders
* Refactor the migration code a bit to make this possible
* Change `pmbootstrap flasher flash_system` command to
`pmbootstrap flasher flash_rootfs`
* The old command still works, but all references have been changed to
the new command
* Remove obsolete `pmbootstrap flasher export` (that was changed to
`pmbootstrap export` a few months ago)
* Update `README.md` and ZSH auto completion
* Change the description of the generated rootfs image (not talking
about a system image anymore, mention that it has subpartitions)
* Better description of `pmbootstrap flasher flash_rootfs --partition`
Add a simple script, that checks whether all device's codenames can be
found in the device overview in the wiki. This way we're always sure
that every device is documented in the wiki's device table.
This doesn't exist anymore: so:libboost_filesystem.so.1.62.0
Affected packages are all from LuneOS UI:
* activitymanager
* mojoservicelauncher
* nodejs-module-webos-dynaload
When the native arch (e.g. `x86_64`) `APKINDEX` files are outdated, and
`pmbootstrap` gets instructed to build a linux package for a foreign
arch, then the `APKINDEX` cache did not get used anymore for the
current session. This means that every lookup of a package in an
`APKINDEX` caused the whole `APKINDEX` file to get parsed again instead
of using the cached version. This slowed it down so much that it felt
like `pmbootstrap` was looping forever.
How this happens in detail:
* Whenever pmbootstrap parses an `APKINDEX`, it fills up the
`args.cache["apkindex"]` dict with the parsed information and the
last modified date of the file.
* `pmbootstrap` checks the last modified date of the `APKINDEX` files
and updates them if they are older than 4 hours.
* When the bug appeared, then the cache was already filled up, then an
update happened and then `pmbootstrap` tried to read from the cache.
* So when reading from the `APKINDEX`, the cache gets ignored because
the last modified date is different.
* Up to this commit, the cache does not get deleted and filled up
again!
How to test:
Try these commands once without this commit, and then with this commit
applied:
```
$ sudo touch -m -t 201801010000 \
~/.local/var/pmbootstrap/cache_apk_x86_64/APKINDEX.*
$ pmbootstrap -v build linux-postmarketos-mainline --arch=armhf
```
Without the patch, you can see in `pmbootstrap log` that it is
resolving the dependencies properly, but very slowly. With the patch
the resolving happens almost instantly.
When parsing the depends of entries in the APKINDEX file, we ignore
all operators (<, =, >). (This is enough for our use case, was we only
do the dependency resolving to check which packages need to be built
and `apk` does the dependency resolving again before installing
anything).
We did not ignore the ~ character for fuzzy version compares, this is
fixed with this commit.
Details:
* renamed "supported devices" to "devices"
* fix coverage button to URL suggested by coveralls.io
* link to postmarketOS.org
* lots of usage examples
* use `pmbootstrap` alias
* Persistent alias note, initfs extract, debugging
* Save "" (empty string) in the user's config as hostname if the user
let it default to the name of the device. That way, when the device
gets changed, the user won't get the old device's name as hostname
by accident.
* Add a test case
Note about PMOS_NO_SAFESTRAP kernel cmdline:
This can be used to forcefully skip SafeStrap partition mount in device
initramfs hook, for example when booting with droid4-kexecboot on device with
SafeStrap configured as well.
