CI started failing with:
/builds/ollieparanoid/pmbootstrap/venv/bin/python3: No module named pytest
I've briefly tried to fix this with the existing scripts. However,
instead of investing more time into that, do the long overdue
refactoring of the scripts that involve dropping the venv logic and
support for a custon gitlab-ci-runner using some python docker image as
base. This configuration hasn't been used for a long time and is
probably broken anyway.
Refactor the logic to skip the qemu test case in gitlab CI by using
pytest markers. The new script is now similar to bpo's .ci/pytest.py.
Do not install git in the native chroot and use it from there. Remove the
chown_to_user argument from pmb.helpers.git.clone(), the resulting dir
is now always owned by the user. While at it, refactor the function and
display the clone URL.
Previously we had cloned aports_upstream (from Alpine) with
chown_to_user=False (legacy) and pmaports with chown_to_user=True.
pmb.helpers.git.rev_parse() would only work after chown_to_user=True.
Check if git is installed in "pmbootstrap init", and remove the same
check from rev_parse(). Add a new work dir version, that checks for git
and changes ownership of already checked out aports_upstream to the
host system's user.
When creating a new work dir, create cache_git instead of cache_http.
cache_http is created on demand already, with proper permissions. But
cache_git must be created, otherwise pmb.helpers.mount.bind will create it
as root.
This is in preparation for the "pmbootstrap pull" feature, as it allows
using the host system's git in all new code paths. We will be able to
handle repositories even if they were cloned outside of the work dir
(which we do in a few CI scripts for example).
Related: #1858
Add a new action that lists all aports, for which no binary packages
exist. Only list packages that can be built for the relevant arch
(specified with --arch). This works recursively: when a package can be
built for a certain arch, but one of its dependencies
(or their depends) can not be built for that arch, then don't list it.
This action will be used for the new sr.ht based build infrastructure,
to figure out which packages need to be built ahead of time (so we can
trigger each of them as single build job). Determining the order of the
packages to be built is not determined with pmbootstrap, the serverside
code of build.postmarketos.org takes care of that.
For testing purposes, a single package can also be specified and the
action will list if it can be built for that arch with its
dependencies, and what needs to be built exactly.
Add pmb/helpers/package.py to hold functions that work on both pmaports
and (binary package) repos - in contrary to the existing
pmb/helpers/pmaports.py (see previous commit) and pmb/helpers/repo.py,
which only work with one of those.
Refactoring:
* pmb/helpers/pmaports.py: add a get_list() function, which lists all
aports and use it instead of writing the same glob loop over and over
* add pmb.helpers.pmaports.get(), which finds an APKBUILD and parses it
in one step.
* rename pmb.build._package.check_arch to ...check_arch_abort to
distinguish it from the other check_arch function
When the timeout occurs it is important to ensure clean up of child
processes. Killing only the direct process created by a command can
leave child processes running.
For example a pmbootstrap.py install will run apk add. This run command
creates multiple processes as follows:
(cmd line arguments snipped for readability)
$ ps -e -o pid,ppid,pgid,cmd
PID PPID PGID CMD
31738 23247 31738 python3 ./pmbootstrap.py -t 15 install --no-fde
31746 31738 31738 sudo env -i /bin/sh -c ... ;apk --no-progress add
31747 31746 31738 /bin/sh -c ... ;apk --no-progress add
31748 31747 31738 apk --no-progress add
The root process of the run command is PID 31746. We want to kill
the child processes too. Otherwise only running kill -9 31746 will leave
the processes 31747 and 31748 running.
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).
* Travis and Coveralls badges
* aports: instead of <https://github.com/postmarketOS>, use
<https://postmarketos.org>
* References to full URLs to issues and pull requests replaced with
a hash and the number
* grsec check: simplify error message, remove link to github issue
(nobody is using that anymore anyway)
* change "pmbootstrap kconfig_check" to "pmbootstrap kconfig check"
* change "pmbootstrap menuconfig" to "pmbootstrap kconfig edit [-x|-g]"
(with legacy alias, because the first syntax was referenced to a lot)
* enable X11 interfaces: -x: xconfig, -g: gconfig
* new function to copy the xauthority file:
pmb.chroot.other.copy_xauthority()
* remove menufconfig() function from the kernel template and all kernel
aports ([skip ci] because it would rebuild all kernels and run out of
time). Alpine has dropped this as well, and it wouldn't work with the
new code anyway.
* 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`
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
Please note that in case of #444 one GB for a full Ubuntu (which eats up several hundreds MB of RAM alone) + compiling in pmbootstrap was not enough, and that it was "enough" with 2 GB. So the actual value may be much lower.
* Change "GNU/Linux" into "Linux distribution", because the Alpine Linux developers don't see their distro as GNU/Linux
* Use "hello-world" as example package, as it does not make much sense right now to compile heimdall for armhf
You'll need openssh to connect to your device after it has booted,
but if your host system does not have openssh, you can simply use
openssh from the native Alpine Linux chroot:
./pmbootstrap.py chroot
apk install openssh
