Prevent the "Run 'pmbootstrap log' for details" message from being
written to the log file that gets read with "pmbootstrap log". Because
when the output of "pmbootstrap log" is pasted somewhere and people
analyze it, the message sounds like this is not the output of
"pmbootstrap log" (like it happened the other day in #postmarketOS).
* Usage: pmbootstrap install --split
* Make obvious that export is the next step when split images are created
* Fix note for missing rootfs image on export
* Change wording from "system image" to "rootfs image"
* The idea was to show the note only when the rootfs image was not
generated yet. But this was broken, because the path we checked for
was missing the chroot path prefix (which is added now).
* Also don't display the message, when the split image files exist
Device nodes in the chroots get created in a tmpfs, so they can be
created even if the filesystem where the chroot resides does not
support device nodes (#1317). In "pmbootstrap shutdown" we umount the
`dev` folder, which means all device nodes that were created inside
this folder are gone. This commit changes the code to actually recreate
the device nodes when using the chroot again.
Details:
* move `pmb.chroot.init.create_device_nodes` to
`pmb.chroot.mount.crete_device_nodes`
* don't call it in `pmb.chroot.init()` anymore, but in
`pmb.chroot.mount_dev_tmpfs()`
* Create the `null` device as well (`apk --initdb` also creates it on
`init`, but we don't call it after `shutdown`)
We require binfmt_misc to run programs of foreign architectures (e.g.
armhf) with QEMU. This is set up by default in most distributions, but
in some (e.g. Alpine, Void) it needs to be configured manually (see
the troubleshooting page in the wiki).
We have a check in place, which points to that troubleshooting wiki
page. However, the check was flawed, because we assumed the binfmt_misc
folder would not exist.
Thanks to @fxkrait for making the fix and for testing it!
* Add initial device support for Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 (xiaomi-mido)
* Update APKBUILD
* Update APKBUILD
* Wifi support for Xiaomi Redmi Note 4
* Update APKBUILD
* Download firmware from different repo for Xiaomi Redmi Note 4
* Split up cat line
The `msm-fb-refresher` updates the screen for msm based devices. It is
not needed for all devices, so we had some extra code in the initramfs,
that would only add it when the `deviceinfo_msm_refresher` variable was
set. However, we are able now to add files to initramfs hooks, so this
hack can be removed and simplify everything.
Changes:
* Remove `deviceinfo_msm_refresher` from all deviceinfos
* Add sanity check for it
* Move all `deviceinfo` sanity checks to an extra function
* `postmarketos-mkinitfs`: remove code for msm refresher
* `msm-fb-refresher`: add initramfs hook
The postmarketos-base package used to make the user part of the "video"
and "audio" groups. However, this did not work reliably, and we were
adding the "wheel" group in "pmbootstrap install" anyway.
Now all groups get added in "pmbootstrap install", and the names of the
groups have been moved to `pmb.config.install_user_groups`.
* firmware-samsung-i9195: new wlan subpackage
* samsung-i9195: add wlan firmware to nonfree-firmware dependencies
* firmware-samsung-i9195: change pkgver to sequential numbering.
this breaks package management. be careful when updating this package.
the old version was `201707.1`, which is higher than `1.1.0`.
Previous post install action results in loading wlan module during
sysinit. This is not possible since wlan device is only exposed after
wcnss-wlan service. This also delays ssh startup for approximately 3
minutes.
Loading wlan module should only be done on default runlevel, after
wcnss-wlan service has been started.
Also add a reference fb.modes file, although directfb applications still
doesn't work and cause the framebuffer driver to crash.
Changes:
* `helpers/envkernel.sh`:
* installs everything needed for kernel compilation in the native
chroot
* mounts the kernel source to `/mnt/linux` inside the chroot
* creates `/mnt/linux/.output` and chowns it to the `pmos` user, that
folder will be used for the kernel build output
* sets up aliases for `make`, `pmbootstrap`, `pmbroot`, `kernelroot`
* new action `pmbootstrap work_migrate`: does the interactive work
folder migration if necessary, otherwise it doesn't output anything
* when calling this first, we can safely use all other commands
non-interactively without showing the output
Benefits:
* Fast setup (especially for people who are new to kernel
compilation
* No need to figure out distribution specific package names
(cross compilers!)
* No need to do a test build just to verify that the right
packages are installed
* Less error prone
* The right dependencies are always installed
* `ARCH` and `CROSS_COMPILE` variables always get set automatically
and based on `deviceinfo_arch`
* If the build environment is broken for some reason, just zap and
start over
* Easy to reproduce problems
Notes:
* `make menuconfig` works as well
* Sourcing was tested with `zsh`, `bash` and `fish`, it should be easy to
extend for other shells
- Currently just graphics along with weston tested
- Depend on firmware-adreno from device-lg-hammerhead
- Reduce dep of linux-firmware
- Just pull qcom, bracm and adreno firmware
Building packages without git installed caused error messages from git
appearing on the screen, and I patched it upstream (see #1209).
However, this introduced a regression: when git *is* installed and the
aport folder *is not* part of a git repository (like we do it with
pmbootstrap), the build gets aborted now with git complaining that
the folder is not a valid git folder.
But the only case where this happens is, when abuild is trying to
include the git repositories' commit hash for the APKINDEX description.
This pmbootstrap commit hardcodes "postmarketOS" as APKINDEX
description, so it does not fail anymore.
This package is currently broken in Alpine's binary packages for
the testing repository, and their build bot is stuck with another
package. In turn, this makes our package building for the repo get
stuck, as we can't build device-nokia-n900 (and it stops there).
See also: #1408
`pmbootstrap pkgrel_bump --auto` automatically increases the pkgrel for
packages linking against libraries, which don't exist anymore (because
the soname has been changed). The feature is explained in detail in
The previous implementation did not detect soname breakage, when a
subpackage linked against a certain library, but the main package
did not (e.g. `qt5-qtbase-mysql` and `qt5-qtbase`). This was, because
we iterated over the aports/* to find the packages to be checked.
To fix this, we are iterating over the packages found in the APKINDEX
files instead (of both the locally compiled packages and the downloaded
index from the pmOS mirror).
Details:
* `pmb/helpers/pkgrel_bump.py`:
* Rewrite `auto_apkindex_package()` to act upon a given parsed
`aport` and `apk` (from the index) instead of finding the `apk`
dict by itself (we need it earlier anyway).
* Rewrite `auto()` to iterate over APKINDEX files instead of aports
* Skip packages already found, so the `pkgrel` does not get
increased multiple times when the same package was found in
multipe index files.
* Put the package name at the beginning of the log messages to make
them more readable
* testdata: Create a new `testsubpkg` aport, where only the subpackage
links against `testlib`
* Adjust testing code to test everything with `testsubpkg` as well.
NOTE: This makes the command a bit slower, but we could improve
performance again by smart caching of `pmb.parse.apkindex.depends()`.
This could come in a future PR, the important part here is that the
command is bug-free again with this fix.
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
