Description

By the time I get to this issue then all coding should be done for the Harkonnen release.
That means I need to do a full build of the dev platform and all system packages.
A full build will be done twice.
  1. Locally, using cached downloads
  2. On colo server without using cached downloads, to verify a clean build.

Once the builds are completed, then the System Integration Testing (RM #893) will be run.
This issue won't be closed until RM #893 is completed - they will be closed together.

Version Bump

All repos need a version bump before final builds. This requires updating Metabuild's repolist.txt with new app repos. Check all the pkglist.* files for repos that need to be included in repolist.txt.

After version bumps the following libraries need to have their archives updated for PiBox dev platform builds.
  • libpibox
  • pibox-network-config

Build Matrix

Versioned means the repos have had their version number bumped to 2.0.

Both versionRepos() and tagRepos() in build.sh needed to be updated to handle func+proj entries in the repolist.txt file. Both are tested locally and seem to work correctly for all repolist.txt entries. versionRepos() was used to actually update ironman+www.

pitemplate is not structured correctly and really doesn't need versioning. So it's been commented out in repolist.txt.

After version bump of all repos, dev platform builds (rpi/rpi2) on both servers (local/colo) have been updated.

Rebuilding all system packages on both servers.

Found two bugs in packaging while preparing for testing.

  1. Both rpi1 and rpi2 builds are missing firmware directory after make pkg is run.
  2. The rpi1 build is missing its opkg directory after make pkg is run.

The first one is weird, but might be a networking problem in docker:

$ make HW=rpi rpifw-pkg
###  2022-09-19 10:51:30 PM Firmware source is cached - pulling latest 
fatal: unable to connect to github.com:
github.com[0: 140.82.114.4]: errno=Connection timed out

make: *** [configs/rpifirmware.mk:7: .rpifw-get] Error 1

Turns out this is because GitHub (where the RPi firmware is stored) doesn't do git:// anymore, but the configs/rpifirware-git.cfg was using it. Switching the archive to https as such

git remote set-url origin https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware.git

and then changing the .cfg to use https seems to fix the problem. However, the .mk should still die if the git commands fail. They didn't which is why I didn't catch this failure. I should note that the builds both local and on the colo hit this problem opaquely.

Second problem is not clear, but I think it was an artifact of the way I did the full build on the local machine. If I remove the .xcc-opkg and .xcc-opkg-pkg stamp files and then run

  make .xcc-opkg .xcc-opkg-pkg

It works fine. So I'm not going to worry about it more than that, especially since the same build on the colo worked as expected.

Going back to testing.

Testing exposed lots of stop-ship type bugs. These have now all been addressed and the release candidates are being rebuilt now.
