Changes:
* Added the ALSA_PLUGIN_DIRS environment variable otherwise it tries
to load the plugins of the host pc and they fails.
* Added the /usr/lib/pulseaudio path to the library-path argument
* Added the audiodev and soundhw parameters to the qemu command
* Added the required packages necessary to be installed in the chroot
Follow-up to !1373, where `pmbootstrap flasher flash_system` was
replaced with `pmbootstrap flasher flash_rootfs`. We still had used
terms like "system partition" in a lot of places.
This commit replaces it everywhere, so it's clear that we're talking
about the pmOS rootfs (which may or may not be installed to Android's
system partition).
* 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.
* Testsuite: Run UIs in Qemu and check running processes (and other changes)
* When `pmbootstrap qemu` gets killed, it now takes down the Qemu process with it
* `test/check_checksums.py` got a new optional `--build` parameter, which makes
it build all changed packages instead of just checking the checksums
* We run this before running the testsuite now, so all changed packages get
built before running tests (otherwise tests would hang without any output
while a changed package is building)
* New testcase, that zaps all chroots, installs a specific UI (xfce4 and
plasma-mobile currently, easy to extend), runs it via Qemu and checks the
running processes via SSH.
* Version checking testcase: rewritten to include Alpine's testsuite file in
our source tree, so we don't need to clone their git repo anymore. Now it
is enabled for Travis.
* All this gives us a nice 10% code coverage boost
* Increased the `hello-world` pkgrel to verify that the Travis job is working.
* Various fixes
* Build device-packages for the device arch and don't raise an
exception, but print a note if --ignore-depends is not specified
and therefore the kernel gets installed, too.
* Don't use --force when building in Travis (because abuild doesn't
check the checksums then. Bug report on the way.)
* Don't run the building process in the background, but wait for its
completion
* Exit with 1 when showing usage in check_checksums.py
* Don't ask for the mesa driver when the Qemu arch is not the
native arch and always use swrast in that case
* qemu-vexpress: use LTS kernel
* qemu-aarch64: use drm-backend for weston
* Changed usb-shell behavior, it wait for some user action before continue booting
* Rename usb-shell to debug-shell and changed port to 23
* Add `20-debug-shell.sh` script to static code analysis
* Enable eth0 interface in initramfs (qemu)
* Add additional script to run a shell in order to be able to kill it from a telnet session
The mesa driver, which ends up in the installation image, needs to be known
before the installation is done (in other words: when running the qemu action,
it is to late as the image has already been generated). That's why one can
choose the Qemu mesa driver in `pmbootstrap init` now:
```
Device [qemu-amd64]:
Which mesa driver do you prefer for your Qemu device? Only select something other
than the default if you are having graphical problems (such as glitches).
Mesa driver (dri-swrast/dri-virtio) [dri-virtio]:
```
It is still possible to select `dri-swrast`, because `dri-virtio` may not work
in all cases, and that way we could easily debug it or experiment with other
mesa drivers (e.g. the "vmware" one, which is supported by mesa and Qemu).
Other changes:
* `pmbootstrap qemu` accepts a `--display` variable now, which passes the value
directly to `qemu`'s `display` option. It defaults to `sdl,gl=on` (@PureTryOut
reported that to work best with plasma mobile on his PC). `--display` and
`--spice` (which is still working) are mutually exclusive.
* Removed obsolete telnet port pass-through: We only use the debug telnet port
since osk-sdl has been merged.
* Add show-cursor to the Qemu command line, so it shows a cursor in X11
* Refactored the spice code (`command_spice` only returns the spice command,
because it has all necessary information already) and the spice port can be
specified on the commandline now (previously it was hardcoded in one place and
then always looked up from there).
* Start comments with capital letters.
* Keep the log on the screen a bit shorter (e.g. Qemu command is written to the
"pmbootstrap log" anyway, so there's no need to display it again).
* linux-postmarketos-stable: Adjust kernel configs
x86_64, armhf: enable as modules:
CONFIG_DRM_VIRTIO_GPU, CONFIG_VIRTIO_PCI, CONFIG_VIRTIO_BALLOON
aarch64: all 3 options were already enabled as built-in (no change)
* Set '-vga virtio' for mesa-dri-virtio
* Allow to specify a custom username in "pmbootstrap init"
* Build chroots have "pmos" instead of "user" as username now
* Installation user UID is 1000 now (as in all other Linux distributions)
* Adjust autologins
* postmarketos-base: enable wheel group for sudo, removed previous sudoers file
* Implement safe upgrade path:
We save the version of the work folder format now, in $WORK/version.
When this file does not exist, it defaults to 0.
In case it does not match the currently required version
(pmb.config.work_version), then ask the user if it should
automatically be upgraded.
* pmb.helpers.run: support running processes in background
* enable QXL driver support in the linux kernel configurations so
that we can also use SPICE to connect to the VM.
QXL is a paravirtual graphics driver with 2D support
The SPICE project aims to provide a complete open source solution for remote
access to virtual machines in a seamless way.
Both DRM_QXL and DRM_BOCHS are enabled as modules.
According to [1], on Linux guests, the qxl and bochs_drm kernel modules
must be loaded in order to gain a decent performance
* qemu: add new option --spice to connect to VM using a SPICE client
If specified, 'pmbootstrap qemu' will look for some SPICE client in the
user's PATH and run qemu using the QXL driver.
Currently supported spice clients are 'spicy' and 'remote-viewer' but
adding support for more clients can be easily done.
qemu with qxl support will run on port 8077/tcp, which doesn't belong to
any well-known service and represents 'PM' in decimal.

* Implement command to retrieve and set configuration values
* qemu: show advice to use "pmbootstrap config"
* Allow "pmbootstrap config" without positional arguments (prints the full config)
* Check valid variable names
* aports: Use $install variable inside $source
So these files also get fingerprinted
* qemu: Use shutil.which instead of pmb.helpers.run.user
* Fix typo in comment
Thanks to Pablo Castellano and Martijn Braam!
In postmarketOS we are now able to generate system images with the
correct configuration so that they can boot already using qemu
This commit brings the `pmbootstrap qemu` action.
This command is very handy because you don't have to set all the
qemu parameters, pmbootstrap does it for you.
* device-qemu-vexpress: Added kernel command line according to wiki
* qemu: Added workaround for image writing permissions
* qemu: Added support to launch postmarketOS in a QEMU virtual machine
- Support for emulating these architectures in QEMU: arm, aarch64, x86_84
- Generate QEMU command correctly depending no guest architecture (arm/x86)
- Run QEMU in the same architecture as the host by default
- Refactoring in pmb.parse.arch and pmb.qemu.run
- Raise exception if DTB file or system image are not present
- Display more useful information when something fails (e.g. image not found)
- Run qemu version depending on arch (host or argument), not device configured
* device-qemu-amd64: set deviceinfo_kernel_cmdline to "PMOS_NO_OUTPUT_REDIRECT"
* qemu: added --memory argument to specific guest RAM
* device-qemu-amd64: adjusted deviceinfo_kernel_cmdline (console=tty1)
* Added /etc/network/interfaces for qemu-amd64
* qemu: Added KVM support if /dev/kvm if present
* Specify separate machines for architecture
* qemu: Check if QEMU is installed instead of crashing
* Added graphics driver to qemu-aarch64
- Use arm (as used in qemu) instead of armhf (used in Alpine)
- qemu argument is -dtb
- Follow same style to build the command + arguments
* qemu: Added SSH port redirection: ./pmbootstrap.py qemu -p 2222
