U-Boot Bootloader Commands - mixed output, commands sent too fast?

by Stefan

Hey everyone! As I got last problems solved, I am able to boot my device - but that doesn't work out to be reliable. During inspection of console output, I see that there are "random" chars where I don't expect them to be, these chars are the next command that gets sent - before the previous command is finished. For me it seems as U-Boot bootloader-commands doesn't wait for the prompt. Can this be the case here? Or is something other going wrong? Configuration basically the same as in https://lists.lavasoftware.org/archives/list/lava-users@lists.lavasoftware.… Serial console of the device is connected via USB2Serial adapter which uses ser2net to make this available with Telnet (which seems to be the LAVA default way to go). In console I can see things like this, e.g. when tftp command shows its progress, only '#' should be displayed, but there are chars in between: Loading: *################s#####################################e############ ###############t######################################e############ ########################n#####################################v#### The chars in there are "setenv" which is the next command that LAVA wants to execute. This causes the boot to fail in some occurrences, e.g. if dhcp command is not yet fully executed and zImage already tried to load, thus it fails and boot fails. See attached (stripped to relevant parts) log for details. As workaround I set character delay to 100 milliseconds, which seems to make it a bit more reliable, but that can only be a temporary solution, as the characters still appear at the wrong place. Thanks in advance! Stefan

Problem while testing a new device type template

by gemad＠outlook.com

I was trying to follow the section testing new device template here : https://validation.linaro.org/static/docs/v2/development-intro.html#develop… but I am getting the error : root@master1:/# lava-server manage device-dictionary Unknown command: 'device-dictionary'. Did you mean device-tags? Type 'lava-server help' for usage. Some versions information : master1:/#lava-server manage version 2.2.28 lab-slave-0:/# lavacli system version 2023.01 Is the documentation outdated, or am I trying to execute the command in the wrong place ? Also what is the best way to debug and check the errors in a new device template ? Thanks in advance. G.Emad

Bug using SSH as primary connection

by Seb L

Hello everyone, There seems to be a bug in LAVA. I was on version 2022.04 and have also tried 2023.03. Both versions have the same bug. The same configurations works in a 2018 build of LAVA on an old machine. I am trying to connect to an always on board via ssh. The healthcheck is failing with this error : lava-dispatcher, installed at version: 2023.03 start: 0 validate Start time: 2023-04-12 14:07:00.373707+00:00 (UTC) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/lava_dispatcher/job.py", line 198, in validate self._validate() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/lava_dispatcher/job.py", line 183, in _validate self.pipeline.validate_actions() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/lava_dispatcher/action.py", line 190, in validate_actions action.validate() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/lava_dispatcher/actions/deploy/ssh.py", line 81, in validate if "serial" not in self.job.device["actions"]["deploy"]["connections"]: KeyError: 'connections' validate duration: 0.00 case: validate case_id: 244238 definition: lava result: fail Cleaning after the job Root tmp directory removed at /var/lib/lava/dispatcher/tmp/8857 LAVABug: This is probably a bug in LAVA, please report it. case: job case_id: 244239 definition: lava error_msg: 'connections' error_type: Bug result: fail The health check looks like this: job_name: SSH check timeouts: job: minutes: 10 action: minutes: 2 priority: medium visibility: public actions: - deploy: timeout: # timeout for the connection attempt seconds: 30 to: ssh os: oe - boot: timeout: minutes: 2 prompts: ['root@(.*):~#'] method: ssh connection: ssh - test: timeout: minutes: 5 definitions: - repository: metadata: format: Lava-Test Test Definition 1.0 name: smoke-tests-basic description: "Basic smoke test" run: steps: - lava-test-case linux-linaro-ubuntu-pwd --shell pwd - lava-test-case linux-linaro-ubuntu-uname --shell uname -a - lava-test-case linux-linaro-ubuntu-vmstat --shell vmstat - lava-test-case linux-linaro-ubuntu-ip --shell ip a from: inline name: smoke-tests-basic Any ideas ?

How to set particular connection from available connection list from job description yaml

by Nagendra Singamsetti

Hi Everyone, My board has multiple uarts and they are designed to act as different serial consoles of platform OS. So I am trying to set the desired connection (serial) while calling the respective platform boot/flash method from the job description. Means i need to utilise the same board and have to call suitable serial console from connection list to get boot logs. {% set UART_PORTS = {"SE-UART": "AB0KOQF7", "UART2": "A10LOBA4", "UART4": "AB0LPSO7"} %} {% set connection_list = ['uart2', 'uart4'] %} {% set connection_tags = {'uart2': ['primary','telnet'], 'uart4': ['telnet']} %} {% set connection_commands = {'uart2': 'telnet 10.10.4.140 4004', 'uart4': 'telnet 10.10.4.140 4002'} %} How to set required serial(uart2 or uart4) from connection list in job description?? Regards Nagendra S

Unable to extract cpio archive on extracting lava ramdisk overlay

by Stefan

Hi everyone, I'm experiencing this error on setting up my U-Boot based device: Unable to extract cpio archive '/var/lib/lava/dispatcher/tmp/17/extract-overlay-ramdisk-tv17mriz/ramdisk.cpio': Command '['cpio', '--extract', '--make-directories', '--unconditional', '--file', '/var/lib/lava/dispatcher/tmp/17/extract-overlay-ramdisk-tv17mriz/ramdisk.cpio']' returned non-zero exit status 2. As documentation in https://docs.lavasoftware.org/lava/actions-deploy.html#deploy-action-roles states, the overlay will only be used, when a test action is defined in job - so I removed the test action (and the log states "[common] skipped lava-overlay - no test action.") but the error still appears. For debugging I commented out the _cleanup() function in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/lava_dispatcher/job.py (and can see in job output that dispatcher tmp directory isn't cleaned anymore) but somehow the directory still disappears, so I don't know how to debug this further. So what's going wrong here? How to get the overlay working? Running LAVA 2023.01 on Debian 11.6, full log see attached. Thanks in advance!

Not able to unpack the overlay other than "/" directory

by P T, Sarath

Hi Team, Facing an issue while unpack the overlay in some custom location other than "/" directory. From the LAVA linaro documentation I came to know that the -C / command to tar is essential or the test shell will not be able to start. Below are the issues that I am facing because of this. * My / directory is a read only one and I want it in some /etc or /var. * The LAVA job is getting stuck while doing the unpack with the command below in job definition. transfer_overlay: download_command: cd /tmp; wget unpack_command: tar -C /tmp -xzf Below I am attaching the test log from LAVA. [cid:image001.png@01D9455A.1AD8F6A0] How we can solve the read only filesystem image issue for unpacking the overlay other than "/" directory ? Regards, Sarath P T

HTTP 500 on some pages, login not possible anymore

by Stefan

Hey there, I set up LAVA, and ran some jobs (e.g qemu from tutorial) which went fine - but I noticed HTTP 500 status code on /api/help page. Which wasn't severe as I thought I might ask that later. But this monday I discovered that /accounts/login/ isn't working anymore, HTTP 500 status code too! Of course I didn't change anything... (everybody says that) and honestly can't say when this broke as I only logged in once after install. Django log says "django.contrib.sites.models.Site.DoesNotExist: Site matching query does not exist."and as far as I can see Sites reside in database? As I'm new to LAVA I don't know how to debug and to solve this, can you please help me? Is there a way to re-install the sites/templates? Logs that might be relevant are attached. After install (and qemu setup) I noticed that /var is full. This is resolved (deleted some docker images), but might be relevant. Running on current Debian 11 as apt install, recent LAVA version. Thanks in advance Stefan

Missing dependency for LAVA 2023.01 on Debian Bullseye

Hey everyone, in the announcement of LAVA 2023.01 it says: > The support for Debian Buster has been dropped as Debian Buster does > not provide support for the latest pyyaml versions.
