Event -> Video (with transcripts and comments)

 

1. Merging NEXT (Jira tickets)

 

- many small fixes

- windows build support (WSL2)

- small machine support (smarter dependency handling)

- better patch logging and logs in general

- people contributing

 

Focus on:

- CI, aggregation, rootfs cache ( @Igor @rpardini)

- testing, testing, testing (anyone)

 

2. Providing stable builds for main TV box image?

 

We generally support this idea and builds can be enabled @SteeMan https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/config/targets.conf

 

3. None this week.


Comments on all topics are welcome!

Since I've no slides, a terrible sense of humor, and nothing else to post, here's a git shortlog of the changes since last week.

 

Ricardo Pardini <ricardo@pardini.net> (99):
      armbian-next: `CLEAN_LEVEL=make-kernel` now does `git clean -xfd` instead, faster and 100% clean
      armbian-next: better logging for early apt installs during `prepare_host_basic()`
      armbian-oleg: handle error during host deps installation (Oleg has a mangled sources.list?)
      armbian-oleg: introduce `DOCKER_SIMULATE_CLEAN=yes` so I can pretend to be Oleg, but using Docker
      armbian-oleg: split hostdeps again, full of ifs, and reduce the minimum set of pkgs for Oleg-conditions while trying to keep Docker full
      armbian-next: `apt-cacher-ng` is now optional and activated via `MANAGE_ACNG=yes`; drop `NO_APT_CACHER`
      armbian-next: remove old template Dockerfile, -next does not use this at all
      armbian-oleg: `junk`: drastically reduce host-side dependencies / "remove junk"
      armbian-next: curb down wget logging for ORAS tooling download
      armbian-next: curb down `git fetch` logging; be verbose if user on terminal & not logging
      armbian-next: curb `aria2c`'s complaining a bit
      armbian-next: curb `free_loop_device_retried()`'s logging on first try
      armbian-next: long overdue split of `logging.sh`
      armbian-oleg: logging: new logfile format; `SHOW_LOG=yes` default; introduce `DEBUG=yes`
      armbian-next: fix quoting of retry var (cosmetic)
      armbian-oleg: better logs; only include non-empty .log files
      armbian-oleg: curb `apt-get`'s logging with `-q` / `-qq`
      armbian-oleg: curb Python launcher logs
      armbian-oleg: curb `rsync` logging during bsp
      armbian-oleg: drastically curb `update-initramfs` logging, unless SHOW_DEBUG=yes
      armbian-oleg: drastically curb `boot_logo()` logging
      armbian-oleg: drastically curb `apt-get` logging when running in chroot
      armbian-oleg: make `chroot_sdcard_apt_get_install_dry_run()` logging more useful by filtering the noise out
      armbian-oleg: if commands fail, write to log in bright red
      armbian-next: split `compilation/debs.sh`; `compile_xilinx_bootgen()` moved to family
      armbian-oleg: curb logging from building `armbian-firmware`
      armbian-oleg: curb logging from building `armbian-plymouth-theme`; do it in a logging section, like the others

      armbian-oleg: logging: drastically curb / make more useful kernel packaging logging
      armbian-oleg: logging: disable debugging (set -x) of generated postinst/etc kernel scripts (board-side, but also chroot logging)
      armbian-next: kernel: deterministic `.config` mtime handling; kernel build logging sections reorg
      armbian-next: remove `REPO_STORAGE` and `REPO_CONFIG` -- unused
      armbian-next: consider "Provided" installed packages when determining what is missing from host-side dependencies
      armbian-next: completely remove `acl` (which provided `getfacl`) and it's usages (basic deps)
      armbian-next: don't copy the host's `keyrings` to image
      armbian-next: Python tooling: use consolidated+hashed+cached pip base/pycache; don't pip during Dockerfile build, nor cli-requirements
      armbian-next: add core extension `c-plus-plus-compiler` which hostdeps on `g++-aarch64-linux-gnu` and enable it in JetHub family
      armbian-next: core extensions for `xfs` / `f2fs` / `brtfs` / `LUKS/cryptroot` hostdeps; enable in main-config
      armbian-next: Docker: abstract away and only run "docker info" once, it's very expensive
      armbian-next: `rootfs`: bunch'o'fixes, introduce `disable_systemd_service_sdcard()` to stop repeating incantantion
      armbian-next: don't warn about using extlinux
      armbian-next: a bunch of checks for Darwin; use brew's GNU coreutils first in PATH, so we get the correct utils; give instructions
      armbian-next: better logging for `kernel_prepare_bare_repo_from_oras_gitball()`; remove dead code

      armbian-next: `patching`: avoid mangling valid utf-8 from mbox'es
      armbian-next: `patching`: parse renamed source files, don't swallow them during rewrite
      armbian-next: optimize `config_source_board_file()`, now 600x faster by not reusing (slow) code from interactive

      `risc-v`/`starfive`: `CONFIG_MOTORCOMM_PHY=m` for the onboard Ethernet
      `risc-v`/`starfive`: switch kernel config to `savedefconfig`'s output, cos that's what it should be
      `odroidm1`: enable working userland `fw_setenv`, so users can go back to Petitboot & otherwise tweak u-boot env from Armbian
      `odroidm1`: bump to 6.2-rc3; look ma, no patches.

      armbian-next: mark Vagrant CLI as unimplemented

      armbian-next: `ccache`: show more in ccache debugging
      armbian-next: make superglobals readonly (`DEST/WORKDIR/LOGDIR/SDCARD/MOUNT` and others)

      armbian-next: severe bug, countdown counted up
      armbian-next: kernel: cleanup bundle after patching succeeded, not after build success
      armbian-next: firmware: don't build `-full` firmware if not on CI/noninteractive and board's not going to use it
