going Posted April 20, 2022 Posted April 20, 2022 19.04.2022 в 20:44, Igor сказал: By the end of this month we want to merge https://github.com/armbian/build/tree/armbian-next in case it will produce working images. After the merge we are going directly into code freeze / bug fix only phase. https://docs.armbian.com/Process_Release-Model/#release-testing There are a lot of changes and this is the only sane way to integrate this big chunk of code. I think we should do exactly the opposite. As soon as the author realizes that his codebase has begun to create stable images for the family\branch, he can invite the most active members of this group to test and fix bugs. That is, errors, changes must be made in this branch. While the master should remain stable and not create problems for the current work. 1 Quote

rpardini Posted April 23, 2022 Posted April 23, 2022 Here's some info on armbian-next status: - In development since October/2021 (thus 7 months) - Currently sitting at 189 commits, almost all lib/**/*.sh files are changed. - More than 17 rounds of manual merges performed manually against master. Sometimes we have 1-2 weeks of delay, but it's mostly master-equivalent. Each round takes 2-5 hours of carefully reviewing every commit that landed on master and maybe rewriting it. - Huge changes around logging and error control. Errors now stop the build. Logs contain actionable information. - Rewritten kernel building and packaging. There's no more packaging patches or builddeb hacks. Kernel-headers support cross compiles across all arches. No more byteshift patch. Still needs tuning. - Completely changed git handling, specially for kernel. This still needs handling of previously git://, now http:// bundle downloading as reported above, and caching. - Patch hashing is half-rewritten, still needing work. Now same code can both actually patch and produce hashes, making it consistent. "fasthash" - apt-cacher-ng configuration for local usecase is now under Armbian control. - 100% working without any external/downloadable toolchains. - full support for building any arch under any other arch, including "reverse cross-compiles" and running of rkbin/fip x86-only binaries. - source code is now properly formatted according to shellfmt, and 90% of shellcheck warnings are squashed. A lot remains still. - 20x faster kernel rebuilds, 2-3x faster full builds due to consolidated make invocations, benefitting from bintree caching as well as ccache. - most compression points changed to zstd, yielding multicore (de-)compression and thus much faster image building during cache hits. - full support for DKMS modules, eg nvidia-drivers and ZFS, under any cross compile scenario. - data channel for metadata communication, config extraction, matrix generation etc by having stdout clean for machine data. logs to stderr. - per-build TMPDIR affecting and protecting all `mktemp` invocations - all traps rewritten under a cleanup/trap manager. - full HTML-based, single-file, full build log artifact. no more output/debug. - many others I forget. All that said, I've still a ton of stuff pending before this can 100% replace current master: - EXTRAWIFI-style manual patching of things is not idempotent nor proven working with "fashhash" and probably causes full kernel recompiles, negating previous benefits until fixed. - (server-based) Caching of warm/cold git bundles, to avoid people downloading 4gb+ of git sources. - kernel-headers will probably be unified with kernel-sources, since they contain mostly the same stuff. - extra-buildpkgs is not touched nor run, and safe to assume needs lots of work. - certain CI-only build ops like "rebuild roofs only" and "build all BSPs" and "build all u-boots" never run so probably won't work. Some few brave souls like @NicoD, @Rich Neese, and @going have actually tried armbian-next and every single try there's stuff to fix, thanks for trying and reporting. TL,DR: armbian-next is doing well, thanks. Work continues. It might not be ready for merge, will it ever be? I will keep it rebased as much as possible. There's no pressure. Try it out, and report. Thanks! 2 Quote

rpardini Posted April 23, 2022 Posted April 23, 2022 This is deviating from the main subject, but just to clarify a bit what armbian-next is trying to do with kernel's git: - First: it knows the main version (eg: 5.15, 5.16) of every kernel to be built, even if it's not from mainline sources, for example vendor source, say a legacy. Idea was taken from sunxi; I've modified every family to have that information (similar, but not identical, to KERNELBRANCH) - When fetching kernel sources, say for 5.15, it will: - check for 5.15 git bundle "warm" cache. if found, fetch from it and skip down to item X. if not, continue. (point of interest "1".) - check for Torvald's git "cold" cache. if found, fetch from it. if not, download it via HTTP+CDN from kernel.org's non-git mirrors, then fetch from it. this is slow, error prone, and many gigabytes; it has all "master" history, but not stable branch history. - "X": add a 2nd remote which is stable kernel git from whatever mirror we want. fetch the latest 5.15.y from it, and all stable tags too. this is always done even if non-mainline kernel. - if warm bundle for 5.15 does not exist yet: export it, in the process making it shallow before 5.15-rc1. include tags. (produced warm bundle is around 300mb and super fast to fetch from) - (point of interest "2") - (if non-mainline kernel) add a 3rd remote "origin" and fetch from it, just like we did before. this fetch is now in order of few megabytes or even a few kilobytes. With this we end up with something that does 0 shallow fetches from remotes (which is what kernel.org wants from us) but in the end is both shallow and contains tags that are useful for maintainers. The main improvement needed here are "point of interest" 1 and 2: those could try to offer "ready-to-go", around 300mb, shallowed-with-tags files that could be cached and offered to users just like we do for rootfs caches. So with 300mb we end up with a very usable git tree instead of a tarball of just-source for half of that. The fact that the bundles age (and are out of date) is irrelevant, since we always fetch (only differences, never shallow) from remotes, so it's easy to update. I am investigating using freely available resources (eg: OCI registries on Github) to store and fetch those "gitbundle caches" so that people don't have to suffer the 4gb marathon that is fetching from torvald's bundle. 0 Quote
schwar3kat Posted April 23, 2022 Posted April 23, 2022 I'm building from the armbian-next branch for testing and I'm finding the experience quite unfamiliar and a little annoying.

Will be possible (and default) soon. Real Logs are now produced inside the WORKDIR (in .tmp) in text + ANSI colors format, and during cleanup, processed and aggregated into a single file HTML. This has brought joy to some and hatred to others. Sorry to offend your sensibilities... But do expand on "don't play nice with my tools", which tools?

Yes. `PRESERVE_WORKDIR=yes` won't cleanup the workdir in .tmp -- this leaves over a gigabyte of stuff but should be safe. Also `PRESERVE_SDCARD_MOUNT=yes` will preserve $SDCARD, $MOUNT (and thus $LOOP) -- take much care in this case, things are left mounted and you can easily shoot yourself in the foot (eg, destroy your host) if use this and is not careful.

balbes150 Posted April 25, 2022 Posted April 25, 2022 I am currently trying to test the armbian-next branch for a native build (directly on the rk3399 device) using Jammy version 22.04. This Ubuntu version uses gcc-11 by default, which causes the u-boot-2017 build problem. I installed gcc-10 from the rep, tried to set a variable to limit the version of gcc used. But when starting the build, this variable is ignored. Maybe I'm using the wrong syntax. How to set the variable (restriction) of the GCC version correctly, so that the u-boot build uses a version no older than 10? UBOOT_USE_GCC='< 11.0' 0 Quote

USE_MAINLINE_GOOGLE_MIRROR="yes", what about other mirrors? @Igor Hmm this will be a challenge. Are you sure you can't download the bundles, or is some other error? Send me a log file please? I'll find a way, if the bundle can't be downloaded, to revert to fetching from origin, so Google mirror can be used. I guess folks in China and others might need that as well. Also if I ever get around to the gitbundle caching storing in docker layer in GCHR.IO, we could have a workflow that publishes ready-to-go, 300mb gitbundles for each version (5.15 / 5.17 etc) and solve this once and for all. I've thought and studied a lot about this problem, and there' s another possible, although very different, solution: using a single, shared `.git` tree with all remotes and all branches, huge, possibly seeded by bundle, for all kernels, and then for each built kernel, a separate working copy. See https://git-scm.com/docs/git-worktree -- this would be even more complex to manage than already, but would be more efficient when building say more than 2/3 kernels, and much more efficient when building many different versions (eg 4.19 / 5.15 / 5.17). But that is maybe for armbian-next-next.

I've too many manual merges and at a certain point I lost track. The fact that our docker support uses a "docker" config file that itself re-launches the build inside docker is very confusing. The template-copying style of this is also hard to maintain... At a certain point I thought to rewrite, never did, and merges were sloppy. I will review. My bad. Regarding kernel-drivers.sh, this is one of my main to-do items. I've good progress on 'fasthash' (which is required for kernel-drivers) so this is getting close to doable. Will keep you posted.

I have checked different combinations of images and settings (with disabling all package caching), but all options end in errors. @balbes150 thanks for your tests and posting the logs. These errors were a bit unrelated and came from master, "nala" package which was added by "desktop" sources, and desktop sources were included in CLI builds in master. Dunno if really intended... Since I rebase irregularly sometimes this was fixed fast in master but -next lagged quite a bit. I've disabled this in armbian-next (sources only added for desktop builds again) but will lead to discussions, since it was already accepted into master, and armbian-next already breaks a lot of other stuff. Those kind of changes are marked *breaking change* in the commits in armbian-next when I can identify them. There's quite a few. ------------------ To all here: thanks a lot for the tests and reporting the problems. I have already started a huge rebase against master, fixing a few things and doing a few CI runs to catch the more obvious problems. Also rebasing showed frozen kernel tags, armbian-next has all that is needed to do that externally now, so also working some long overdue features. Will post when it's pushed! 0 Quote

Many other changes/fixes and a few breaking ones, like removal of LIB_TAG/.ignore_changes for @lanefu I've not tested desktop building so here's when @Rich Neese comes in, let me know. Thanks for all the tests! 0 Quote

Ahn, ok, this is recent addition for 1 runner that was failing uboot, I thought you meant GIT version. We'll have a hard time without python2 for those old uboots, so it's a symptom of shit to come. But thanks for the catch, I'll fix that ASAP, and probably more when I move builders to Jammy. 27 minutes ago, Igor said: Also office unblocked at kernel.org I still couldn't find time to work on this. 0 Quote

Not sure where to post this. Please feel free to move it. I tested the armbian-next branch build for a couple of my boards. The build computer is Linux Mint 20.3 (Una) has a dedicated separate drive for Armbian builds and works well for current armbian build. The build errors as per attached.

going Posted January 5, 2023 Author Posted January 5, 2023 @schwar3kat A good place to discuss. Please add echo "$(git diff)" here. I am interested in whether or not new files appeared in the build system after you started it to run? @rpardini Please explain why this is in the log: .... --> 🦋 1: 2382876 - 2382876 - 2382876: ehBE: .... --> 🧽 1: 2382876 - 2382876 - 2382876: ehBE: .... --> 🧽 1: 2382876 - 2382876 - 2382876: ehBE: .... ....

atone Posted January 5, 2023 Posted January 5, 2023 @rpardini it seems that @schwar3kat has the same issue as @balbes150 with python3 here Sorry, no. it's another issue. 0 Quote
rpardini Posted January 5, 2023 Posted January 5, 2023 Hi, thanks again @schwar3kat for testing. You've hit a snag with the Python3 version. I've been using type annotations, which are not supported under all Python versions. I have not tested this under MINT UNA -- is there a Docker image for it? I will push fixes soon and let you know. The actual error is (only visible on your screen, not in the logfile, see below for why): output_lists: list[tuple[str, str, object, object]] = [ TypeError: 'type' object is not subscriptable @going and others, ref the logging: In this specific case (error during early configuration), the logging to file was not working as intended. That happens because capturing stdout/stderr while at the same time possibly running an interactive program (like `dialog`) does not work. I have further split the config into more functions, which are individually logged, so that we can get the actual error in the logs (not only on screen). Ref the log format: it's crazy, I know, and not good yet. I will try to make it more useful / readable / complete with your feedback. Just for info, here's what the current format means: taking for example --> 🐛 1: 2382876 - 2382876 - 2382876: ehBE: debug: Already set BRANCH, skipping interactive [ current ] - --> is a display_alert. All levels (even debug) are logged to the log file. Lines without it are the output of an external tool / program being run. - 🐛 is the emoji corresponding to the logging level (debug, see below); I think I will remove these from log file since everyone hates them - 1: is ${SECONDS} -- thus the number of seconds since the build started. (useful? I dunno) - 2382876 - 2382876 - 2382876 : are $$, caller BASH_PID, the current BASH_PID (unuseful, unless you're debugging a terribly gnarly issue due to sub-shells. not for normal people...) - ehBE is $- (thus the bash setopts active at that moment, again, unuseful unless you're debugging very complex things like shortcircuits, use of $(), etc etc) - debug is the display_alert logging level (has a corresponding emoji) - the rest is the 1st and 2nd display_alert arguments. My proposal is to reduce this drastically just to: --> DEBUG: (1:) Already set BRANCH, skipping interactive [ current ] and also remove all ANSI-color from the logs so it can be read without a terminal. 0 Quote
going Posted January 5, 2023 Author Posted January 5, 2023 2 часа назад, rpardini сказал: taking for example Thanks for the clarification. If you think all this information is necessary for debugging, then you can try to enter the key "VERBOSE" and set it to "0" by default. In this case, the log will contain only brief messages about the execution stage. If "1" then the values of the variables for this stage are added (not all). If "2", then the name of the execution stage function and the place from which it was called are additionally printed. And then up to the number "7". But I think this is somewhat superfluous for such a simple script as the armbian build system. 2 часа назад, rpardini сказал: My proposal is to reduce this drastically just to: --> DEBUG: (1:) Already set BRANCH, skipping interactive [ current ] and also remove all ANSI-color from the logs so it can be read without a terminal. This particular message is not necessary at all. # ARGs: 'BOARD=orangepi-r1' 'BRANCH=current' 'RELEASE=bullseye' 'BUILD_MINIMAL=yes' 'BUILD_DESKTOP=no' 'KERNEL_ONLY=no' 'KERNEL_CONFIGURE=no' 'CREATE_PATCHES=no' This is printed at the very beginning. That's enough. If the build was successful, 90% of this log is not needed. If I got an error, I need this error in the log. I need the name of the function and the file where the error occurred. And that's probably it. 0 Quote
