1062365 - Investigate Android 4.3/4.4 emulator test setup

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Testing :: General, defect)

Description

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

I recently tried running tests against an Android 4.4 (arm) emulator. I'm not sure I'll pursue this, but here are some notes on my experience...

Comment 1

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

1. Create one master AVD.

This step need not be run on a test slave. It can be run on any computer that has the Android SDK installed. 

 - Install the Android SDK if not already available. See http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
 - Run "android" from <android sdk>/tools/android -- this brings up a UI for the "Android SDK Manager".
 - In the Android SDK Manager, verify that an option for "Android 4.4.2 (API 19)" is available and has installed components:
     -- "SDK Platform"
     -- "ARM EABI v7a System Image"
 - In the Android SDK Manager, select "Tools" > "Manage AVDs" to launch the "Android Virtual Device Manager"
 - In the Android Virtual Device Manager, on the "Device Definitions" tab, select "New Device..." and on the "Create New Device" dialog enter:
    -- Name: mozilla-device
    -- Input: Keyboard -- checked
    -- RAM: 1024 MiB
    -- Resolution: 1024 x 816
    -- Screen size (in): 7
    -- Density: mdpi
 - Save this device definition.
 - In the Android Virtual Device Manager, on the "Android Virtual Devices" tab, select "New..." and enter:
    -- AVD Name: test-arm442
    -- Device: mozilla-device
    -- Target: Android 4.4.2 - API Level 19
    -- CPU: ARM (armeabi-v7a)
    -- RAM: 1024
    -- VMHeap: 64
    -- Internal Storage: 500
    -- SDCard: 500
    -- Use Host GPU: checked
 - Select OK twice to accept the settings and create the AVD. (This may take a minute.)
 - Exit the Android Virtual Device Manager.
 - Exit the Android SDK Manager.

2. Customize the master AVD.

Execute this procedure on the same computer as step 1.

Here we pre-install SUTagent and Watcher and customized su.

 - obtain an appropriate arm build of su, either from orangutan (https://github.com/wlach/orangutan), or an existing build
 - download an appropriate tests zip
 - extract the bin directory from the tests zip to obtain the necessary apks
 - launch the emulator with the new AVD, created in step 1 (either ensure that the android sdk emulator is in your PATH, or specify the path):
    -- emulator -avd test-arm442 -partition-size 1024
 - wait for the emulator to start (it may take a few minutes)
 - when the Android welcome screen is displayed, click OK
 - over-write /system/xbin/su:
    -- adb -e shell mount -o remount,rw /system
    -- adb -e push su /system/xbin
    -- adb -e shell chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su
    -- adb -e shell ls -l /system/xbin/su
       --- expect: -rwsr-sr-x root     root        17748 2013-09-19 17:48 su
    -- adb -e shell mount -o remount,ro /system
 - install the apks:
    -- adb -e install Watcher.apk
    -- adb -e install sutAgentAndroid.apk
 - verify correct installation by starting Watcher and SUTAgent manually (click on the application icons)
 - with the emulator still running, find the system image on the computer, typically /tmp/android-{user}/emulator-{xxxxxx} and make a temporary copy of it
    -- cp /tmp/android-mozdev/emulator* /tmp/system.img
 - close the emulator
 - move the temporary copy of the system image to the avd:
    -- mv /tmp/system.img ~/.android/avd/test-arm442.avd
 - launch the emulator again to update the path and size of the system.img in the avd ini files:
    -- emulator -avd test-arm442
 - wait for the emulator to start, then close the emulator

Comment 2

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

A significant concern is the operation of sutagent in the presence of new-ish Android security measures.

Instead of "adb install sutAgentAndroid.apk" I also tried copying sutAgentAndroid.apk to /system/priv-app (remount /system rw, copy, remount ro, copy system.img as above). sutagent started fine and seemed to work better, but still failed to kill fennec:

$>kill org.mozilla.fennec_gbrown
##AGENT-WARNING## Unable to kill org.mozilla.fennec_gbrown (couldn't kill org.mozilla.fennec_gbrown)

$>execsu kill 919

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19868138/aosp-privileged-vs-system-app

I tried running emulator -selinux permissive -- that did not help, and seemed to make the emulator unstable. I tried "-selinux disabled" too, but that crashed the emulator on startup.

Comment 5

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

Consider some trivial configuration changes here in support of bug 824748: Use a different resolution, orientation, hardware keys than currently used for Panda or Android 2.3.

Comment 6

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

I intend to renew my efforts here in January.

:wlach and others suggested today that we should abandon sutagent on 4.4 and rely on adb instead -- that may be the best way forward.

Comment 7

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

Lessons from bug 989343 (2.3 avds):
 - enable dpad and keyboard input, so that the emulator is more usable when the avds are used for local debugging
 - ensure /data/anr exists
 - check camera settings
 - disable background data - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1004682#c4

Comment 8

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

Here's a try run with a first version of a 4.4 avd:

We can telnet to the emulator on 5554, but adb replies with "device offline".

Comment 9

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

(In reply to Geoff Brown [:gbrown] from comment #8)
> We can telnet to the emulator on 5554, but adb replies with "device offline".

The emulator was not starting up, because the emulator on aws under /tools/android-sdk18 is too old (22.0.5; we need 22.3 or newer for Android 4.4). I am trying to work around that.

The try run in Comment 8 also highlighted the need for our mozharness script to know about sut vs adb -- bug 1123443.

Comment 10

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

I would like to decide on screen characteristics for the Android 4.4 emulator.

From bug 824748:
> We have Android 4.0 Panda tests at 1280x672/tablet/landscape and 
>      Android 2.3 emulator tests at 1024x816/phone/landscape.

To avoid trouble with reftests, we need a minimum of 600x600.

Maybe 720x1280 normal, xhdpi (like Galaxy Nexus), to give us a portrait option?

:mfinkle -- Can you suggest a particular screen specification?

I do like the idea of modeling the screen characteristics on a real world use case. The Galaxy Nexus is a bit old, but might be fine. I think the Nexus 4 has similar (normal / xhdpi) characteristics. The "Screen Sizes and Densities" dashboard shows (normal / hdpi) as the most common, but (normal / xhdpi) and (normal / xxhdpi) are gaining. Nexus 5 is xxhdpi while the Nexus 6 is somewere between xxhdpi and xxxhdpi.

Geoff - Let's go with your suggestion (720x1280 normal, xhdpi) and see how things work out. It's possible we might want more than one screen configuration (portrait and landscape?) once we get the basics working. I don't know what advantages we'd have with using xxhdpi or xxxhdpi-ish sizes for testing. Those sizes are large enough to potential show other problems, like performance and memory issues, but for normal unit testing, we probably want to avoid stressing out the system.

Comment 12

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=b6d8cbb854d3 has some good things:
 - new emulator installed and used
 - adb device manager in use
 - Android 4.4 AVD in use
 - fennec is launched with correct environment
 - complete logcat uploaded to blobber
...and some bad things:
 - some ANRs during Android boot
 - remnants of SUTagent and Watcher apparent
 - fennec crashes on startup, missing resources related to R.layout.new_tablet_browser_toolbar...because api-9 apk is installed?

Comment 13

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=812c76716cc4 is an improvement: by hacking use of the api-11 apk, the startup crash / missing resource problem is avoided. Now there are egl / opengl failures.

Comment 14

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

btw, I have been in a pickle recently wrt running the emulator locally -- it suddenly started hanging in local runs, with no sign of the trouble in debug logs. I thought I must have messed up my avd, but restoring an old avd from backup did not help. I googled, found various reports of similar troubles, followed various home remedies, all to no avail. Then I remembered -- I had removed "zip" from my search path; I restored zip and now all is well!!

Comment 15

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

I still haven't found a solution to the egl failures - bug 1128548 - when starting Firefox for Android on 4.4 on aws. 

However, the egl failures do not occur on Android 4.2 or 4.3 on aws -- we can run all test types with only a few test failures on Android 4.2 and Android 4.3 (on aws, via adb, with sdk-r24 emulator):
https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=470ee066d8a4
https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=50a773b0ad4a

The situation on Android 5.0 is more complicated: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=f127f385a154. There are other (likely fixable) problems preventing mochitest startup on 5.0. However, I think the reftest run confirms that the egl failure affects 5.0 as well.

Comment 16

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

I have often meant to investigate the emulator "snapshot" feature, to speed up emulator startup. It turns out that you cannot use snapshot and "Use host GPU" in the same avd: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11617131/android-why-snapshots-and-gpu-are-mutually-exclusive. Since we need the GPU, we will not be using snapshots.

Android 4.1 is also well-behaved and runs all test suites well, on aws, via adb, with sdk-r24 emulator:
https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=6cc896e964eb

The 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3 emulator images include a goldfish 2.6 kernel. The 2.6 kernel does not appear to support CONFIG_HIGHMEM (there's no build error, but there is no change in behavior). I also tried using a 3.4 kernel with the 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3 images, but those configurations would not boot. 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3 all seem to give us a maximum of about 850 MB of memory (more than 4.4 without CONFIG_HIGHMEM) -- I think that's good enough.

Comment 18

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

The egl failures - bug 1128548 - when starting Firefox for Android on 4.4 on aws can be avoided by replacing the kernel with one supporting CONFIG_HIGHMEM, and starting the emulator with sufficient memory to avoid the Firefox "low memory device" threshold. I am happy with that solution. 

However, other problems persist on Android 4.4, on aws:
 - xpcshell tests frequently fail during setup reporting that files cannot be written, despite the apparent availability of sufficient space: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/try-builds/[e-mail]-6679ca696c2d/try-android-api-9/try_ubuntu64_vm_mobile_test-xpcshell-1-bm118-tests1-linux64-build13.txt.gz
 - reftests generally run to completion, but frequently crash on shutdown: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/try-builds/[e-mail]-6679ca696c2d/try-android-api-9/try_ubuntu64_vm_large_test-plain-reftest-1-bm67-tests1-linux64-build32.txt.gz
 - mochitests fail to start - tests time out: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/try-builds/[e-mail]-6679ca696c2d/try-android-api-9/try_ubuntu64_vm_mobile_test-mochitest-1-bm118-tests1-linux64-build35.txt.gz
 - most robocop tests fail, often reporting that the screen is off or that some other application is in the foreground

None of these problems are seen on 4.1, 4.2, or 4.3.

None of these problems are seen when I run tests locally against a 4.4 emulator with the same AVD.

In some local tests, I have seen prefs.js missing, or 0 length, which might account for some of the aws behavior -- if files cannot be written to device reliably, all sorts of things might fail. But this is speculative; I don't know what is causing all this odd test behavior.

We appear to run out of space on /data. The difference between 4.1/2/3 and 4.4 is that 4.4 has a smaller /data partition. The difference between local and aws runs is that when running locally, I did not have firefox pre-installed (mozharness installs the app, even for xpcshell, where it is not strictly necessary).

Comment 20

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

/data resist attempts to make it a reasonable size, as reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20579606/android-4-4-virtual-device-internal-storage-will-not-resize. The solution shown there works for me:

rm userdata-qemu.img
resize2fs userdata.img 512M
tune2fs -e continue userdata.img

Then start emulator and customize settings, etc.

Comment 21

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

I can run 4.4 xpcshell tests fine now, but all the other problems in Comment 18 persist. 4.3 is reliable, so we're just going to concentrate on that instead, at least for now.

Attachment: use android sdk from tooltool instead of /tools/android-sdk18

This patch changes all of the android emulator jobs (2.3, x86, and 4.3) to retrieve and use android sdk packages from tooltool.

For 4.3, we need 2 packages: an r24 sdk for the emulator, and the old r18 sdk for adb (because of a bug in the r24 adb; we may be able to work around this more efficiently in future).

For 2.3 and x86, we need just the r18 sdk, for both the emulator and adb.

The r24 sdk was put on tooltool in bug 1137513. The r18 sdk was put on tooltool in bug 1137940. We want to use tooltool for the sdk in preference to the existing /tools/android-sdk18 in support of bug 1137743.

Here's a try run against http://hg.mozilla.org/users/gbrown_mozilla.com/gbmozharnessclean/rev/b5d0ee4b2fb2 (this patch + some logging): https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=60702f85d35a. Note that the Android 2.3 and x86 jobs download the sdk:

Comment 39

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

To prepare an Android 4.3 AVD, there are several choices for components:
 - system images from the SDK vs. building our own from AOSP
 - if building from AOSP, which version/tag: https://source.android.com/source/build-numbers.html#source-code-tags-and-builds
 - kernel from SDK vs. prebuilt kernel from AOSP vs building our own
 - 4.3 AOSP comes with 2 prebuilt kernels, the default is 2.6.29 but a 3.4 kernel is also included

Using system images and kernel from the SDK gives us an apparently stable system that can produce green test runs (with appropriate manifest exclusions) but has these limitations:
 - old 2.6.29 kernel
 - memory limited to 840868 kB
 - errors and ANRs on boot / increased boot time
 - less flexibility / unable to patch components if problems encountered in future

If I build system images from AOSP, such as JLS36I / android-4.3.1_r1 and run with the default prebuilt 2.6.29 kernel, that also produces a stable system that can produce green test runs which is nearly indistinguishable from the SDK images:
 - old 2.6.29 kernel
 - memory limited to 840868 kB
 - errors and ANRs on boot / increased boot time

This runs fine with a 2.6.29 kernel built from source also. (Without CONFIG_HIGHMEM; CONFIG_HIGHMEM seems to have no effect in 2.6.29.)

If I use the AOSP prebuilt 3.4 kernel or build my own 3.4 kernel, we run into the EGL problems previously discovered in Android 4.4 (bug 1128548):
 - memory limited to 765760 kB
 - Fennec considers this a low memory device and alters egl configuration; egl errors on startup

If I build my own 3.4 kernel and define CONFIG_HIGHMEM, memory is no longer limited and we avoid the egl startup errors, but tests exhibit a variety of infrequent, intermittent crashes, time-outs, and failures.

This suggests that the real problem with Android 4.4 is not 4.4, but the 3.4 kernel.


For now, I will concentrate on the 2.6.29 kernel.

Comment 40

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

Building AOSP is straight-forward for 4.3. I followed the instructions starting at https://source.android.com/source/downloading.html.

mkdir aosp431r1
cd aosp431r1
repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-4.3.1_r1
repo sync
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch sdk-eng
make

System images ca be found in out/target/product/generic.

Note the choice of "lunch sdk-eng" instead of "lunch aosp_arm-eng"; aosp_arm produced images, but they would not boot while sdk-eng images worked fine.

Lunch output was:

Comment 41

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

Building the kernel is also straight-forward. See instructions at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1128548#c11, but be sure to use the 2.6.29 branch.

Comment 42

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

To build a custom AVD with all the desired bits in the right places, there are a few steps to go through. I prefer a manual approach to a script because all things considered, I think the manual description is more portable and more easily reproducible in future.

1. Open the Android AVD Manager
  - Ensure an Android SDK is installed on the local computer.
  - Run "android" to start the Android SDK Manager.
  - Select the "Tools" menu > "Manage AVDs..." to start the AVD Manager.
2. Create a device in the AVD Manager
  - Select the Device Definitions tab
  - Select New Device...
  - Create a new device with these parameters:
     Resolution: 720x1280
     Screen size: 5
     All sensors
     Both cameras
     Keyboard and Dpad
     RAM: 1024
     Size: large
     Screen ratio: long
     Density: xhdpi
     Buttons: Software
     Device states: all
3. Create an AVD in the AVD Manager
   - Select the Android Virtual Device tab
   - Select New...
   - Create an AVD with these parameters:
     Name "test-1"
     Device: select the device created in step 2
     Target: Android 4.3.1
     CPU: armeabi-v7a
     Hardware keyboard present
     Skin: Skin with dynamic hardware controls

4. Edit ~/.android/avd/test-1.avd/config.ini and set hw.mainKeys=yes
5. Copy your AOSP images (Comment 40) to the AVD:
    - cp ~/aosp431r1/out/target/product/generic/*.img ~/.android/avd/test-1.avd
6. Copy your armv7 kernel (Comment 41) to the AVD. Be sure to rename kernel-qemu-armv7 to kernel-qemu.
    - cp ~/rebuild43/kernel-qemu-armv7 ~/.android/avd/test-1.avd/kernel-qemu
7. Start the emulator with the new AVD:
    - emulator -avd test-1
8. Customize settings in the emulator
    - clear the "Make yourself at home" first-run greeting
    - select applications icon: clear "Choose some apps" first-run greeting
    - open Settings and change:
     -- Display > Sleep - 30 minutes
     -- Display > Daydream - OFF
     -- Security > Screen lock - OFF
     -- Developer Options > Window animation scale - off
     -- Developer Options > Transition animation scale - off
     -- Developer Options > Animation duration scale - off
     -- Date & time > Automatic time-zone - off

    - adb shell mkdir /data/anr
    - adb shell chown system:system /data/anr
    - adb shell mkdir /data/tombstones
    - adb shell chown system:system /data/tombstones
    - adb install install_flash_player_ics.apk
10. Close the emulator
11. Create the AVD archive for export to tooltool, taking care to remove hardware-qemu.ini and updating the path in test-1.ini to /home/cltbld/...

Comment 44

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

I noticed some intermittent startup crashes in mochitests when using my own 2.6.29 kernel which seemed to go away with the prebuilt kernel, so I skipped step 6 in Comment 42 to use the prebuilt kernel from the sdk.

Comment 45

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

Android 4.3 has a lot of extra components installed which can be disabled or uninstalled, simplifying boot-time logcat and reducing memory use. Here's the new procedure for making the AVD; this comment replaces Comment 42, 43, and 44.

1. Open the Android AVD Manager
  - Ensure an Android SDK is installed on the local computer.
  - Run "android" to start the Android SDK Manager.
  - Select the "Tools" menu > "Manage AVDs..." to start the AVD Manager.
2. Create a device in the AVD Manager
  - Select the Device Definitions tab
  - Select New Device...
  - Create a new device with these parameters:
     Resolution: 720x1280
     Screen size: 5
     All sensors
     Both cameras
     Keyboard and Dpad
     RAM: 1024
     Size: large
     Screen ratio: long
     Density: xhdpi
     Buttons: Software
     Device states: all
3. Create an AVD in the AVD Manager
   - Select the Android Virtual Device tab
   - Select New...
   - Create an AVD with these parameters:
     Name "test-1"
     Device: select the device created in step 2
     Target: Android 4.3.1
     CPU: armeabi-v7a
     Hardware keyboard present
     Skin: Skin with dynamic hardware controls
     Front camera: emulated
     Back camera: emulated
     RAM: 1024
     VM Heap: 128
     Internal Storage: 600
     SD card: 600
     Use Host GPU
4. Edit ~/.android/avd/test-1.avd/config.ini and set hw.mainKeys=yes
5. Copy your AOSP images (Comment 40) to the AVD:
    - cp ~/aosp431r1/out/target/product/generic/*.img ~/.android/avd/test-1.avd
6. Start the emulator with the new AVD:
    - emulator -avd test-1
7. Customize settings in the emulator
    - clear the "Make yourself at home" first-run greeting
    - select applications icon: clear "Choose some apps" first-run greeting
    - open Settings and change:
     -- Display > Sleep - 30 minutes
     -- Display > Daydream - OFF
     -- Security > Screen lock - OFF
     -- Developer Options > Window animation scale - off
     -- Developer Options > Transition animation scale - off
     -- Developer Options > Animation duration scale - off
     -- Date & time > Automatic time-zone - off
     -- Date & time > Select time-zone - Pacific time
     -- Apps: disable these components:
       -- Daydream, Calculator, Calendar, Calendar Storage, Clock, Connectivity Test,
          Email, Example Wallpapers, Exchange Service, Homescreen Tips, Music, Widget Preview,
8. Customize data via adb:
    - adb shell mkdir /data/anr
    - adb shell chown system:system /data/anr
    - adb shell mkdir /data/tombstones
    - adb shell chown system:system /data/tombstones
    - adb install install_flash_player_ics.apk
9. Close the emulator
10. Create the AVD archive for export to tooltool, taking care to remove hardware-qemu.ini and updating the path in test-1.ini to /home/cltbld/...
