778248 - Figure out flashing mechanism for panda B2G builds

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Infrastructure & Operations Graveyard :: CIDuty, task)

Description

[Jonathan Griffin (:jgriffin)]

In order to get automated tests running on B2G builds running on panda boards, we need to figure out how to automatically flash them.  The current process requires manual intervention a couple of times, at least:  https://developer-new.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Boot_to_Gecko/Pandaboard

According to Ted, it doesn't seem that PXE netbooting is an option.

Comment 1

[(not currently active) Ted Mielczarek]

Once you've flashed one successfully, you should be able to just use "dd" to copy that image to other SD cards and boot from those.

Not having PXE netboot is going to make using these in automation a lot harder, though, because we won't be able to remotely reimage them--we'll have to have someone manually swap the SD card out.

It might be possible to install uboot and have xloader pass control to U-boot instead of bootloader.bin.  Then we could still take advantage of the pxe boot functions and scripting ability in uboot.  Then U-boot can continue with either loading and passing control to bootloader.bin or it might be able bypass that and load the b2g kernel directly.

I'm thinking something like this:
Rom Code -> xloader -> U-boot -> bootloader.bin -> b2g kernel
or
Rom Code -> xloader -> U-boot -> b2g kernel

Moving to correct component.

Comment 4

[Malini Das [:mdas] - Away, not checking bugmail]

We'll need to land this before we get pandaboard automation going.

Comment 5

[Thomas Zimmermann [:tzimmermann] [:tdz]]

A patch is pending on github to work around the broken 'fastboot erase'.

Comment 6

[Jake Watkins [:dividehex]]

The goal here is to get the build output into a format that is compatible with the mobile re-imaging system that being developed for android on panda.  This basically means we need to mimic the Linaro's build output format in some fashion which will allow it to be applied directly to the mmc block device in a live linux environment.  The Linaro U-boot bootloader contains the pxe boot functionality that allows us to remotely force the panda board into the live linux environment.

First, system and userdata artifacts should be in tarball form.  This will allow them to be simply unpacked onto freshly formatted partitions.  This has been already been setup by :Catlee.

Second, and this is where we are hitting a wall,  we need to the kernel and the initrd to be compatible with the Linaro U-boot branch.  mwu: has taken a look at this to some extent and the conclusion is that the stock android kernel being used is not compatible in its current form.

Comment 7

[Thomas Zimmermann [:tzimmermann] [:tdz]]

Here is an update on the current state of this bug.

When building a compatible AOSP kernel, I found that

 1) the PandaBoard's prebuild kernel version is 3.0.8 with Android changes,
 2) older AOSP kernel versions (up to ~3.0.17) don't boot on PandaBoards, and
 3) newer versions are not compatible with the user-space graphics drivers.

I first tried 3.0.31, which boots but is not compatible with the user-space graphics driver for the PandaBoard's PoverVR SGX540. I tried different compile and configure options for the kernel, but the graphics driver never succeeded to initialize the kernel module. Debugging suggests that the initialization protocol changed in incompatible ways. The user-space driver is proprietary and closed source, so we cannot modify it.

I successfully compiled and booted the AOSP kernel 3.0.8. This needs some small patches, including a fix from 3.0.17 that solves the boot problem we've seen. Some versions of 3.0.8 contain a kernel graphics driver that seems compatible with user-space. With the correct kernel and the patches, it's possible to boot into our environment. B2G and all related processes seem to work, but I still don't have an image on the screen. I currently focus on fixing this problem.

There has also been talk about using the Linaro kernel instead of AOSP's. AFAICS the Linaro kernel does not contain a kernel graphics driver for the PandaBoard at all. We'd have to port (at least) the AOSP driver to Linaro's kernel, which is, I guess, not a small task.

Hm, really? AFAIK, Android doesn't start unless you give it some form of GLES 1.

I looked at the kernel config for the Linaro 12.09 release and it has:

#
# Graphics support
#
# CONFIG_DRM is not set
CONFIG_PVR_SGX=y
CONFIG_PVR_SGXCORE_540=y
CONFIG_PVR_BUILD_RELEASE=y
# CONFIG_PVR_BUILD_DEBUG is not set
CONFIG_PVR_NEED_PVR_DPF=y
CONFIG_PVR_NEED_PVR_ASSERT=y
CONFIG_PVR_PERCONTEXT_PB=y
CONFIG_PVR_ACTIVE_POWER_MANAGEMENT=y
CONFIG_PVR_ACTIVE_POWER_LATENCY_MS=100
CONFIG_PVR_SGX_LOW_LATENCY_SCHEDULING=y
CONFIG_PVR_USSE_EDM_STATUS_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_PVR_DUMP_MK_TRACE=y
# CONFIG_PVR_PDUMP is not set
CONFIG_PVR_OMAP_DSS2=y

from http://releases.linaro.org/12.09/android/leb-panda/kernel_config

Are these the options you're looking for?

Comment 9

[Amy Rich [:arr] [:arich]]

I also want to make sure that when we're talking about kernel requirements/hacking, we're also keeping bug 798427 in mind as well.  We need both PXEboot and static MAC addresses to make the imaging solution work.

Ok, I put the Linaro patches from bug 798427 on top of my modifications.

Yes, but is there a driver in the kernel tree? With 12.05 I couldn't find any sign of the SGX driver, neither in 'make menuconfig', nor in the source tree. I'll try again with 12.09 tomorrow.

Actually, I had hoped that at least one of these kernels would just work out-of-the-box. I've been bisecting kernel trees, trying patches and various configurations for almost two weeks, and it still doesn't work. The AOSP tree is full of half-finished commits that only compile/work with certain config options. It's not very high code quality.

Comment 12

[Thomas Zimmermann [:tzimmermann] [:tdz]]

I should add that 12.05 also has these config options, even though it lacks the driver.

Comment 13

[Thomas Zimmermann [:tzimmermann] [:tdz]]

Good news!

I finally got the self-build AOSP kernel working on the PandaBoard.

I found out the exact commit from the pre-built kernel's version number 3.0.8-g52f4764 (it's not 'g52f4764' ;). The pre-built kernel does not export /proc/config.gz options, so I created a config that's similar. Everything seems to work and and after booting finished B2G's login screen is show on the screen.

Currently, B2G crashes when the system suspends, but I guess this is just because of some incorrect kernel configuration or a bug in B2G itself. The error message is shown below. I'll try to improve the kernel config and make the bug go away. It looks like B2G works on an invalid gralloc buffer handle after the suspend happened. If anyone has an idea what the problem could be, let me know.

Comment 14

[Thomas Zimmermann [:tzimmermann] [:tdz]]

Michael,

the 4 patches on top of the old kernel are available at

https://github.com/tdz/android-kernel-omap/compare/bug-778248.

Comment 15

[Thomas Zimmermann [:tzimmermann] [:tdz]]

The fixes for this problem landed yesterday. I'd like to close this bug report if no one objects.

Comment 16

[Thomas Zimmermann [:tzimmermann] [:tdz]]

The reported crash did not occur any more and was probably related to the initial setup and/or https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=801658. The kernel, patches and config have been released on github, and the binary kernel is in the upstream B2G repository. Since no one objected, I'm closing this bug.
