PATCH 1/4 runqemu: Replace use of ifconfig with ip

ifconfig and its ilk (net-tools package) is deprecated in favour of iproute2 package and is now removed by many distro's e.g. Archlinux. So we replace ifconfig with ip utility

PATCH 2/4 linux-yocto: add qemumips64 compatibility

From: Bruce Ashfield <[email protected]>

The 3.8 and linux-yocto-dev kernel trees carry qemumips64 support. Adding the board to the compatibility directly in the recipes is the first step to adding mips64 support to the broader set of packages.

It gets a little further but doesn't succeed. I have now tried booting a number of
times using various combinations of "serial" and "bootparams". Currently I'm using:

    $ runqemu qemumips64 serial bootparams="root=/dev/sda probe_mask=0x3f"

How far the boot gets seems random, but sometimes I'll get the following panic:

does that boot ?

It gets a little further but doesn't succeed. I have now tried booting a number of
times using various combinations of "serial" and "bootparams". Currently I'm using:

    $ runqemu qemumips64 serial bootparams="root=/dev/sda probe_mask=0x3f"

How far the boot gets seems random, but sometimes I'll get the following panic:

This has been fixed multiple times. Looks like the wrong kernel SRCREV was used.

qemumips definitely boots here, otherwise, we wouldn't have added the compatibility
and sent the request.

I'm doing a systemd build at the moment and will have more info tomorrow.

you must be using systemd. I am seeing same failure with systemd but only when my build host is archlinux

Are you referring to the build host or target? My build host is openSuSE 12.3 which does use systemd. For the target I'm just building core-image-minimal which, as is my understanding, uses sysvinit by default (i.e. I'm not doing anything explicit (that I'm aware) to request systemd in my target).

#11 lore raw
In reply to Bruce Ashfield

There's something else that's going on that is strange. When I do a "qemumips" build from the master repositories and run it, the qemu-system-mips that is used is the one built as part of OE (i.e. the one from the build sysroot). But when I build and run the "qemumips64" image using this branch, the runqemu script is using my computer's native qemu-system-mips64.

Did I configure something incorrectly?

having unwisely wandered into this MIPS64 minefield a couple weeks
back, i might as well see if i can get a build. in short:

* switch to kraj/qemumips64 branch of openembedded-core-contrib
* add that as another layer along with oe-core
* MACHINE = "qemumips64"
* bitbake a core-image-minimal

is there anything critical i'm forgetting? what's the safest simple
image to try to build? fetching is now underway ...

I believe you only need to add this oe-core/meta layer once. My bblayers.conf contains:

That's exactly what I tried.

I also removed the (default) poky/meta layer since (as I understand it) the openembedded-core/meta layer replaces it.

build finished, and the run hung after printing:

so i killed it and re-executed ... oh, this is not good, kernel panic, call trace, etc. one more time ... same result, kernel panic, call trace. one more time ... hung after "pcnet32: 1 cards_found".

That's the same trace the Trevor saw, and that Khem and I have seen (and fixed) a few times.

I'm betting everyone is using a different SRCREV for the kernel that I am, since I've built and booted this multiple times.

Can you dump your board and meta top commits to the thread ?

That's built from scratch on Yocto master. So clearly there's something strange going on in the failing configs.

i attached a screenshot of the last part of the boot which includes
the call trace, if that's of any interest.

That's the same trace the Trevor saw, and that Khem and I have seen (and fixed) a few times.

I'm betting everyone is using a different SRCREV for the kernel that I am, since I've built and booted this multiple times.

In reply to Robert P. J. Day

Okay, I'm going to start over :-)

I have a layer, meta-poky, which is:

$ git remote -v
contrib git://git.pokylinux.org/poky-contrib (fetch)
contrib git://git.pokylinux.org/poky-contrib (push)
origin  git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky (fetch)
origin  git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky (push)

Currently I have the master branch checked out from
origin: f7afeeb75993b159bb8959e0309bc5eb3978a8fb

I also have openembedded-core, which is:

$ git remote -v
contrib git://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core-contrib (fetch)
contrib git://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core-contrib (push)
origin  git://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core (fetch)
origin  git://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core (push)

Currently I have Khem's branch checked
out: b0592ab08273e17cb1511384ad189281f88c8b03

For my layers I'm only using:
meta-poky/meta-yocto (which I need so I can build an image with poky) openembedded-core/meta (which I need for Khem's work, including the qemumips64 MACHINE)

My understanding is that the things in openembedded-core/meta are meant to replace
the corresponding directories from meta-poky/meta, which is why I'm not including
meta-poky as a layer.

I am very confused by Robert's ability to build successfully with only the following two layers:

BBLAYERS ?= " \
/home/rpjday/oe/dist/layers/oe-core/meta \
/home/rpjday/oe/dist/layers/openembedded-core-contrib/meta \
"

Since, as far as I can tell, neither of them includes what is required to build a poky image.
But I'll be trying out what Robert has done to see if I can get what he's getting :-)
Maybe I'm still confused over all this meta-openembedded/openembedded-core stuff.

AFAICT, i need only the two layers i list there, yes? and my build configuration looks sane, doesn't it?

my build is still going but i don't have a mips64-angstrom-linux

after a fresh build, each attempt to boot qemumips64 hangs at some

Yep. This is what I was about to recommend, but did you apply Khem's patches, or use his contrib branch ? The 3.4 kernel has no compatibility with qemumips64, so it
should have never built, and you shouldn't have needed the version set.

Stay tuned, but for now, I'd suggest waiting to hear back from me. I'll bisect and

Me too. If I use the "serial" option on the "runqemu" cmdline I can log in via the serial console. There was a time when I would get an unresponsive qemumips console (via SDL) but could log in on console... 3? or 4? That isn't the case with qemumips64.

By the way, my build is still wanting to use linux-yocto_3.4.43.

What's interesting is: without the change described by Khem above if I put:

    PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-yocto := "3.8%"

in my local.conf I would get 3.8.11. When I add the change as described above, this line in local.conf gives me linux-yocto_3.8.4!

With Khem's suggestion above:
- linux-yocto_3.8.4 boots but the SDL console doesn't accept input
- linux-yocto_3.4.43 doesn't fully boot (as before)

I don't have any issue ssh'ing into the VM (with the 3.8.4 kernel) when I add "ssh-server-openssh" to "EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES".

:) and the "good" news, is that I finally managed to get a boot to fail locally. I'm not bisecting and debugging the problem. I've fixed this before, so I don't expect it will take too long.

I see that Saul picked up the support and plumbing for this, so if that merges, I'll send incremental updates to the SRCREVs. I'll ignore any high priority bugzilla entries on principle, since this is still baking and we just want to get the plumbing in place :)

#48 lore raw

What really confuses me about the attempts I was making is that in my local.conf file I have explicitly asked for kernel version 3.8.11:

    PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-yocto := "3.8.11%"

When I watch the build messages fly by I see that linux-yocto_3.8.11 is being built.

In my work directory there is a directory called:

tmp/work/qemumips64-poky-linux/linux-yocto/3.8.11+gitAUTOINC+8482dcdf68f9f7501118f4c01fdcb8f851882997_bbefde394205a1b317eae31942bfc13afce0b0ac-r4.1/

but when I got into the

tmp/work/qemumips64-poky-linux/linux-yocto/3.8.11+gitAUTOINC+8482dcdf68f9f7501118f4c01fdcb8f851882997_bbefde394205a1b317eae31942bfc13afce0b0ac-r4.1/linux

directory and have a look at the Makefile, I see:

VERSION = 3
PATCHLEVEL = 8
SUBLEVEL = 4
EXTRAVERSION =
NAME = Unicycling Gorilla

and when I boot the image the kernel banner says:

Linux version 3.8.4-yocto-standard (trevor@zzz) (gcc version 4.7.2

When I watch the build messages fly by I see that linux-yocto_3.8.11 is being built.

In my work directory there is a directory called:

tmp/work/qemumips64-poky-linux/linux-yocto/3.8.11+gitAUTOINC+8482dcdf68f9f7501118f4c01fdcb8f851882997_bbefde394205a1b317eae31942bfc13afce0b0ac-r4.1/

but when I got into the

tmp/work/qemumips64-poky-linux/linux-yocto/3.8.11+gitAUTOINC+8482dcdf68f9f7501118f4c01fdcb8f851882997_bbefde394205a1b317eae31942bfc13afce0b0ac-r4.1/linux

directory and have a look at the Makefile, I see:

VERSION = 3
PATCHLEVEL = 8
SUBLEVEL = 4
EXTRAVERSION =
NAME = Unicycling Gorilla

Quoted 6 lines

and when I boot the image the kernel banner says:

Linux version 3.8.4-yocto-standard (trevor@zzz) (gcc version 4.7.2 (GCC)
) #1 PREEMPT Tue May 14 11:10:07 EDT 2013

Can anyone explain the discrepancy?

You set the SRCREV that Khem sent. That was my 3.8.4. commit. The version number in the directories is coming coming from the PV of the package, which you didn't tweak.

-----------

Try a rebuild with that, works cleanly for me in oe-core. When I enabled the board,
I neglected to pull in my SRCREV update.

Cheers,

Bruce

I just built and ran it using plain meta-poky/meta and meta-poky/meta-yocto (applying the above change to meta-poky/meta/..., and using a very recent pull to master) and am quite happy to report that it works for me (as I understand it Saul pushed the various parts required for the toolchain earlier today). The linux kernel banner, sources, and "uname -a" are all linux-yocto_3.8.11 and I can log in using the qemu SDL interface.

Now I just have to remove the kernel version preference line in my config and verify that works okay too.

Does this mean we now have something that can work on the EdgeRouter Lite?

well you have to have a kernel for that platform. If you have working kernel everything else will ditto work

just FYI, did a fresh build for qemumips64 from updated oe-core
layer alone, and it seems to work fine. i think it's a keeper.

Well, I can already say that klibc (meta-initramfs layer) fails to compile. Help much appreciated upstream.
