Don't fail adding reserved memory when a memory region already has been
reserved (e.g. via memreserve). This avoids conflicting no-map setting
and makes sure memory is properly reserved.
Other compression methods remove the original image file at compression.
Add the -m (move) command to zip to do the same when compressing with
zip. This saves some space in the builds image/release directory.
LVM2 is not really required in the embedded use case. Opt out of
installing the standard installation which will install only dmsetup.
This requires a backported fix for the lvm2 package to not install
unnecessary systemd services.
Fixes: #1448
* Add squashfs with LZ4 and LZO compression to Barebox
* Add squashfs with LZO compression to U-Boot
* Use "raw" as type for kernel partition which is compatible with ext4
image as well as squashfs.
Note: This does not use squashfs for the kernel but merly adds support
for it. This will allow to downgrade/fallback to the non-squashfs
version. Using squashfs for the kernel partition is implemented in dev
(for release 7).
The patches for ODROID-C2/C4 don't apply to Linux 5.12 used in
ODROID-N2. Move ODROID-C2/C4 patches to kernel version specific
directory so they don't get applied for ODROID-N2.
(cherry picked from commit 64d3cd88a1)
* Improve kernel update scripts
Use separate script for ODROID-N2 for now. Also warn if there are kernel
patches with a specific kernel version number in the source tree: They
typically can be just moved to the new kernel version, but one should
compile check them before committing.
(cherry picked from commit 96a8ab17c1)
For ODROID-N2, release 6 is using Linux 5.9.16. On dev branch we most
likely will move to latest stable and skip 5.10. Drop those unnecessary
patches.
(cherry picked from commit f7c5154bda)
The Wireless Extension framework is deprecated, but it seems that the
Wireless Extensions proc API is still popular (/proc/net/wireless).
Enable the minimal set of Wireless Extension to get the proc API.
Since we start the HomeAssistant shell directly on tty the service
responsible for starting did not restart the shell on exit. Remove the
RemainAfterExit flag to make sure that the shell restarts on exit.
It seems that the TPU (thermal monitoring) sometimes reports
unreasonable high temperatures, leading the kernel to trigger a thermal
shutdown. Add a patch which filters out such spurious temperature
readings.
* Remove CONFIG_CLOCKSOURCE_EFI configuration
It seems to cause messages like this on some machines:
EFI Event timer too slow freq = 100 Hz
The Barebox efi_defconfig configurationd doesn't enable it either.
Disable it by default as well.
* Enable CONFIG_CMD_ECHO_E to fix menutree
It seems that menutree needs CONFIG_CMD_ECHO_E to properly display the
boot menu.
Also enable other useful commands such as edit or reset.
* Bump Barebox to 2021.05.0
Since the move to 5.10 multiple users experience stability issues
leading to random crashes. All reboots follow a SError Interrupt:
[48112.247242] SError Interrupt on CPU5, code 0xbf000000 -- SError
...
Revert back to Linux 5.9.16 for now.
Using console focused virtualization environments such as virsh having
a serial console is the easiest way to interact with a virtual machine.
It also saves resources since no video memory needs to be allocated.
Enable serial console besides tty1 by default.
Note: The bootloader as well as the kernel shows its boot messages on
all consoles. However, only the last console is mapped to /dev/console,
which systemd is using to show service startup messages. Putting tty1 as
last console makes sure that systemd messages are still shown on the
console screen.
When using quotes currently, they are not passed to HA due to $*. This
doesn't allow to use some commands properly, e.g. snapshot restore with
a passwort with spaces:
```
ha snapshot restore c31f3c93 --password "test test"
...
time="2021-05-26T11:24:19+02:00" level=fatal msg="Error while executing rootCmd: accepts 1 arg(s), received 2"
```
Properly pass all arguments using $@ in quotes.
Add a minimal motd so users know what kind of system they just logged
in. Also add the hint that the Home Assistant CLI is still available
using the command ha.
* Recreate Supervisor container on OS upgrade/downgrade
When the operating system gets upgraded or downgraded the Supervisor
start script might start the Supervisor slightly differently (e.g. with
RT scheduling support). If the container has already been created, a OS
upgrade or downgrade won't recreate the Supervisor container.
* Move startup script version file to /mnt/data
* Start ha-cli on tty1 instead of a getty
Instead of starting a getty start the ha-cli directly. This will show
the banner right on startup with the important information such as IP
address of the instance or the URL to reach it.
* Use default shell as root shell instead of HA CLI
Instead of using the ha-cli.sh script as login shell use the regular
shell. Amongst other things, this allows to run VS Code devcontainers
remotely via SSH or using scp. The HA CLI is still available using the
`ha` command.
* Enable systemd-time-wait-sync.service by default
Enable the systemd-time-wait-sync.service by default. This allows to use
the time-sync.target which allows to make sure services only get started
once the time is synchronized.
* Make sure time is synchronized when starting hassos-supervisor.service
Use the time-sync.target to make sure that the Supervisor gets stsarted
after the time has been synchronized.
* Set timeout for systemd-time-wait-sync.service
Don't delay startup forever in case time synchronization doesn't work.
This allows to boot the system even without Internet connection.
Support OS releases (tags) with custom dev part (3rd group of the
release number). This allows to create tagged release candidates with
the form 6.0.rc1.
It seems that the crash of the Meson DRM driver on shutdown can also be
fixed by compiling it in. The driver is also built-in in LibreELEC,
hence this is better tested by the upstream community.
Note the underlying issue seems to be a disabled clock: Since the
introduction of meson_drv_shutdown some registers are touched at a very
late stage. Those clock get disabled in meson_ee_pwrc_shutdown. It seems
that when the driver is built-in, meson_drv_shutdown gets called before
meson_ee_pwrc_shutdown and hence sidesteps the problem.
Note: This increases the kernel by a bit since DRM needs to be built-in
as well. Configure some less common used file systems as modules
(ext3/NFS).
Since 0001-CMD-read-string-from-fileinto-env.patch is in the global
directory to be applied for U-Boot, drop it from the Raspberry Pi
specific patch directory.
In Linux 5.10.24 a regression has been introduced which broke reboot on
ODROID-N2(+). Interestingly the patch should improve reboot stability
for VIM3, which uses the same SoC. However, it seems that in the
ODROID-N2 case, this causes more problems then it fixes. Revert the
offending patch.
