Hi,

 

I'm trying to build the next kernel (4.14.y) for Cubox-i, but the process fails here:

  

  DTC     arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6dl-cubox-i.dtb
Error: arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6qdl-cubox-i.dtsi:261.1-9 Label or path vcc_3v3 not found
FATAL ERROR: Syntax error parsing input tree
scripts/Makefile.lib:317: recipe for target 'arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6dl-cubox-i.dtb' failed
make[1]: *** [arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6dl-cubox-i.dtb] Error 1
arch/arm/Makefile:348: recipe for target 'dtbs' failed
make: *** [dtbs] Error 2
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

When I compiled the kernel approx. 2 months ago (4.15.?) I did not get that error.

Any ideas?

None without providing build logs. I was able to build a kernel without any problem: 

dpkg-deb: building package 'linux-dtb-next-cubox' in '../linux-dtb-next-cubox_5.52_armhf.deb'.
dpkg-deb: building package 'linux-headers-next-cubox' in '../linux-headers-next-cubox_5.52_armhf.deb'.

You can find them under debug subdirectory.

question: does it have an influence that you are building version 5.52 and mine was 5.51?


5.52 is a development branch which is changed only for Allwinner and Odroid XU4, which are under some heavy changes. I also tried to build on a master branch (5.51) and it also builds. I also notice that you are using Ubuntu Xenial builds host. That should not affect this ... 

 

Try removing the cache directory, mainly sources, and try again. Also, a clean build script would be a way to go.

It looks as if the Armbian imx6dl-cubox-i.dts dtsi includes do not have the vcc_3v3 regulator defined.

When I replace imx6qdl-sr-som.dtsi with the one from the SR 4.9.y kernel, then imx6dl-cubox-i.dts compiles without issues.

 

But, then it fails on one of the next dts: 

arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6dl-hummingboard2.dts:46:10: fatal error: imx6qdl-sr-som-brcm.dtsi: No such file or directory
 #include "imx6qdl-sr-som-brcm.dtsi"
          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

arch/arm/Makefile:348: recipe for target 'dtbs' failed
make: *** [dtbs] Error 2
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

I don't know why you don't get an error...

On my test Ubuntu Xenial, I am getting strange compiler errors (arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc: internal compiler error: Killed (program cc1)
) when compiling modern kernels (which can be also related to some KVM bugs, hard to say) ... while Ubuntu Bionic host doesn't produce those errors. Since I am unable to look more into this and since recommended host Bionic works, I can only point you to start with Bionic ...

I just finished a compile without the dts patches, that compiles OK (because the vcc_3v3 regulator definition is in imx6ql-sr-som.dtsi).

Nevertheless it is a good thing to setup a Ubuntu Bionic machine and take it from there.

Unfortunately Ubuntu Bionic does not work for me, tried in a VM and on a laptop, it throws the follwoing error while running the compile script:

I will have to stick to the version without the imx6dl-cubox-i.dts patches as it seems I can build a correctly working volumio image with it.

Perhaps sometime the dts issue will be resolved ;)

Thanks, that did the trick!

 

However, the dts problem is still there.

And it would to be, because the vcc_3v3 regulator definition IS really missing from imx6qdl-sr-som.dtsi after patching.

Just check it out when you have time.

 

(still worth the effort, now I have a clean Ubuntu Bionic dev environment)

What would I loose when compiling from the SR 4.9.y kernel repo directly, apart from not having the latest wifi stuff?

 

Btw: In general, would you have issues with us (Volumio team, mainly me) to use your kernels/ uboot for some of the boards you support with Armbian?

It is what I tried for cuboxi here, but got a little stuck because of the issues mentioned.

Those BSP kernels are usually in a pretty bad state. You can only expect more troubles and certainly less support than here. Kernel 4.14.y works well and also SPDIF, which I assume has some value in this case, while it is (was?) broken in more recent kernels. 

 

I will try to check later today again what is causing this problem.

@IgorThanks for the fix, the kernel build script now works without any issues, much appreciated!!

A volumio version with it, main focus SPDIF, works perfectly with excellent eth0 and usb performance.

Tested it with a cubox 2iex, waiting for confirmation that i4pro also boots (expected as such, but did not work for a previous 4.15.<something>),

In that case further u-boot patching will be required. It's important to catch serial console logs in case it doesn't boot. We might fix that too.
