Dear LAVA-Team,

We have only recently started to use LAVA in a new project and we are now at the point of integrating a new device. As I have read in the documentation that this is the hardest part I would like to ask for some advice where to start and what to especially look out for.

The current state is that LAVA, as a master and one slave is running in two Docker containers by using the example of the following Github repository:

https://github.com/kernelci/lava-docker

After reading the documentary extensively and trying things out with qemu I'd like to try and integrate the following device:

https://www.lantronix.com/products/sa8155p-automotive-development-platform/

Our plan so far would be: Since it has a Snapdragon processor, it's running Android and it is using fastboot for flashing, we figured we could use one of the dragonboard Device-Type templates and duplicate it for our device. But as it comes now to configuring the device dictionary and specifying the test jobs we are not so sure as how to proceed and we also don't want to damage the hardware, so we would be grateful for some help.

Here some more information: The DUT is connected via USB and its power supply can be turned on and off by using Python scripts (When defining the power_on and power_off commands, should the scripts then be on the master or on the dispatcher? And what are all the necessary parameters for the power on/off and also the values connection_list and connection_commands?). It is running Android with the underlying Linux configured especially for the hardware, so we would like to avoid deploying for the beginning and only run some simple shell tests to see if the connection stands. A very simple health check has been set up herehttps://paste.debian.net/1175549, maybe you could give some feedback if that would be sufficient and how future test jobs should be altered.

Hope to hear from you soon

Best Regards,
