[opensuse-arm] openSUSE ARM images
by Joop Boonen 27 Jun '12

27 Jun '12

Hi all, I now have two working openSUSE ARM images. For the Pandaboard and the Toshiba AC100. I wonder if we have a location where these images can be put so people who want to test or help out the openSUSE ARM project? These images can be used for a local native (osc/kiwi) build.

[opensuse-arm] unexpected reloc type 0x03 for libxml2

Hi, On my BeagleBoard xM, I did a zypper up and while installing libgdk_pixbuf-2_0-0-2.26.0-1.2 I got this warning/error: ******************************************************************************** Installing: libgdk_pixbuf-2_0-0-2.26.0-1.2 [done] Additional rpm output: g_module_open() failed for /usr/lib/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders/libpixbufloader-svg.so: /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2: unexpected reloc type 0x03 ******************************************************************************** Is it a known problem?

[opensuse-arm] Interview of the ARM team
by Kim Leyendecker 29 Apr '12

29 Apr '12

Howdy y'all, maybe you know about "People of openSUSE", a series of the news team to introduce openSUSE people to our users and news-readers. As ARM is one of the buzz words in the IT world this year, it might be interesting to hear something about our ARM team and what your doing in general. I planned to to a People of openSUSE special, and if you're interested, I'd be very glad to send you some questions to answer. kind regards, -- Kim Leyendecker, openSUSE Wiki Team GPG Key: 664265369547B825 | leyendecker(a)opensuse.org http://www.opensuse.org - Linux for open minds -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-arm] dovercot12 and ARM
by Joop Boonen 29 Apr '12

29 Apr '12

Hi all, I see that davocot12 fails to build for arm. The newer version of dovecot dovecot20 builds without a problem. I wonder if I also can use "ExcludeArch: %arm" for dovecot12, as a newer working alternative exists.

[opensuse-arm] gcc < 4.6 build for ARM
by Joop Boonen 27 Apr '12

27 Apr '12

Hi all, I wonder if it wouldn't be better to disable building all gcc compilers < 4.6 for ARM. I see that they fail to build and they use build capacity. I don't think these compilers won't be fixed for ARM anyway? I don't think that they will be used?

[opensuse-arm] v8 for openSUSE:Factory:ARM fails while the openSUSE:Factory version is OK
by Joop Boonen 26 Apr '12

26 Apr '12

Hi all, I've just checked out why v8 fails for ARM. If fails with the following rpmlint error: <quote> RPMLINT report: =============== (none): E: badness 10000 exceeds threshold 1000, aborting. libv8-3.armv7l: E: shlib-policy-name-error (Badness: 10000) libv8preparser3 Your package contains a single shared library but is not named after its SONAME. </quote> For the x86 factory build it doesn't, the packages are created without a problem. Might it mean that the rpmlint for ARM is different for ARM?

Hi, Builds from my home project fail. With a simple build (gcc devmem2.c -o devmem2), I get the following error: |gcc: error trying to exec 'cc1': execvp: No such file or directory| Maybe due to errors while gcc 4.7 switch?

[opensuse-arm] WLAN support for Pandaboard (ES)

22 Apr '12

After booting my Pandaboard ES (image "LimeJeOS-openSUSE-Factory-ARM-panda.armv7l-1.12.1-Build10.1.raw") there is no wlan0 device. Regarding to the information here <http://elinux.org/Panda_How_to_kernel_3_2_rcx> there should be a wl12xx driver, but "modprobe -l" does not list such a driver. Is this a known issue?

[opensuse-arm] YaST Network Settings error
by endym 22 Apr '12

22 Apr '12

Hello, I use the image "LimeJeOS-openSUSE-Factory-ARM-panda.armv7l-1.12.1-Build10.1.raw" on my Pandaboard ES. To configure the WLAN I have installed YaST with "zypper in patterns-openSUSE-yast2_basis". Starting the YaST Network Settings with "yast2 lan" results in the error message "Error while creating client module lan". I don't think, that this is an arm issue, however maybe someone has an idea? I have done a google search, but didn't found a solution.

[opensuse-arm] Fwd: ARM hard-float linker path - consensus
by Andreas Jaeger 16 Apr '12

16 Apr '12

FYI, Adrian asked me to participate in the call and here's the result. Once we have a glibc patch, let's fix both gcc and glibc - and add a compatibility symlink for now until rebuilding of the whole distro succeeded... Andreas -------- Original Message -------- Subject: ARM hard-float linker path - consensus Date: Fri, 13 Apr 2012 18:37:11 +0100 From: Steve McIntyre <steve.mcintyre(a)linaro.org> To: cross-distro(a)lists.linaro.org CC: gcc-patches(a)gcc.gnu.org, libc-ports(a)sourceware.org Hi folks, As promised, here's minutes from the call we had this afternoon. Spoiler: the result we've agreed is /lib/ld-linux-armhf.so.3 And here's a transcription of the minutes from https://wiki.linaro.org/OfficeofCTO/HardFloat/LinkerPathCallApr2012 ======================================== Meeting: 13th April 2012, 15:00 UTC Agenda ------ * Debian/Ubuntu have so far built using /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/ld-linux.so.3 * Some other distros (Fedora, OpenSUSE) are still using /lib/ld-linux.so.3 option which matches the older soft-float ABI * Some people are proposing /libhf/ld-linux.so.3 or /libhfp/ld-linux.so.3 (multilib) * Some people proposed /lib/ld-arm-linux-gnueabihf.so.3 (similar to x86_64, libs still in /lib, from Michael Hope) * What should we do as a community? Present ------- Name Affiliations Steve McIntyre ARM, Debian, Linaro Wookey ARM, Debian, Linaro Richard Earnshaw ARM, gcc Jeff Law Fedora, Red Hat, gcc, glibc Jon Masters Fedora, Red Hat Andrew Haley Fedora, Red Hat, gcc Andreas Jaeger SUSE, openSUSE, glibc Carlos O'Donnell Mentor, gcc Steve Langasek Canonical, Ubuntu, Debian Dann Frazier Canonical, Ubuntu, Debian Adam Conrad Canonical, Ubuntu, Debian Matthias Klose Canonical, Ubuntu, Debian Mike Frysinger Gentoo Dennis Gilmore Fedora, Red Hat Discussion ---------- We started with a couple of questions up front to establish the grounds for discussion: * We believed that decision makers were present for all the important parties, i.e. all the arm hard-float distros, plus toolchain developers. This meant that a decision taken at the meeting could be implemented without needing further arguments/negotiations. * All the people present understood the importance of cross-distro binary compatibility, and they all wanted it. This led to agreement that we needed to agree on a standard path for the runtime linker for ARM hard-float Linux binaries. Debian and Ubuntu had so far been using the "multi-arch" path of /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/ld-linux.so.3. Fedora and OpenSUSE were thus far using /lib/ld-linux.so.3, the same as the soft-float ABI. Others had proposed alternative paths such as /libhf/ld-linux.so.3 or /libhfp/ld-linux.so.3 (multilib) or /lib/ld-arm-linux-gnueabihf.so.3. Discussion showed that none of these were found to be universally acceptable. Two parties were likely to be soon affected by an agreement here: 1. Ubuntu 12.04 (releasing with armhf in ~2 weeks) Adam/Steve L agreed that all efforts would be put in to switch the compilers in Ubuntu to a new path before release. Default things like gcc would be correct, but less common tools might still be targetting the old path /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/ld-linux.so. at release. They could be fixed in the longer term and would not stop progress here. 2. Mentor (Codebench due for release in ~1 week) Carlos mentioned this - Codebench has been using /lib/ld-linux.so.3 for hard-float binaries for some time and it was too late to change that for this upcoming release. Next release due in October. Suggested and accepted that this should be mentioned in release notes: if people want to use Codebench on some systems (Debian/Ubuntu and derivatives), they'll need to tweak their system setup. He may be able to do the linker change and rebuild in a point release in a few weeks. It was briefly suggested that the soft-float linker should be renamed away from /lib/ld-linux.so.3 as well at this time, but that idea was quickly shot down. Proposal #1: /lib/ld-armhf.so.3 (not generally liked) Proposal #2: /lib/ld-linux-armhf.so.3 (not favourite, but considered an acceptable compromise by all) No need to go any further. Conclusion ---------- All the people in the meeting agreed: the new runtime linker path for ARM hard-float Linux binaries was to be /lib/ld-linux-armhf.so.3 ACTION: People at the meeting to present this decision to their companies / communities and get the appropriate changes made. Further discussion ------------------ General unhappiness with the mess that led to this meeting. Future planning needs to be better between the various groups for the next time we have a new CPU/ABI/whatever. ACTION: Jon Masters to talk to the Linux Foundation about setting up a forum for such discussions. In the meantime, strong consensus to use the cross-distro(a)lists.linaro.org mailing list for any more conversations now we have people in contact. ACTION: Steve McIntyre to write up the minutes and circulate. Include an updated linker path patch for gcc to match the decision made here. More discussion about triplets and naming, but nothing came of it in the end. Distro folks have already decided what they're using and have patched various software to build appropriately. Richard wants to move gcc's config.guess to use arm-linux-gnueabihf; no strong objections to that. Linker path patch for gcc ------------------------- Adapted from earlier work by Dann Frazier <dann.frazier(a)canonical.com> and Michael Hope <michael.hope(a)linaro.org> 2012-04-13 Steve McIntyre <steve.mcintyre(a)linaro.org> * config/arm/linux-eabi.h (GLIBC_DYNAMIC_LINKER_HARD_FLOAT): Define.

Andrew agreed to push glibc upstream for that.

15 Apr '12

Hi, Is there any reason to not have enabled multimedia support on ARM (except on default config)? I think it would be nice to enable it (especially V4L support) for ARM boards. I know OMAP have capture and display drivers for V4L. I suppose others (IMX51, Tegra, ...) have similar things.

Thinking again on the way to work about it, I think the following is the right approach: 1) Take your patch as is (done) ;) 2) Keep schedulers running on armv7l only, because we have just one pool of systems to build for. The same machines can handle armv7 softfp and hardfp (is this right?, I am no expert in arm hardware) For our openSUSE arm distro: 3) Define default _cpu_target as armv7hl, so we get also .armv7hl.rpm packages 4) Trim our rpm on arm to handle armv7l and armv7hl as equivalent. 5) extend library depend&provides handling with a "(hf)" extension to be able to distinguish between hardfp and softfp packages on the same installation. Note: The last point 5) would make our rpms incompatible with the ones from Fedora. But it is IMHO the only way to handle mixed installations and the fedora way is IMHO technical just wrong. I would be happy to hear some more opinions on this. -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian(a)suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-arm] efika networking
by Peter Czanik 15 Apr '12

15 Apr '12

Hello, After yesterdays updates, networking does not work any more on the EFIKA. I still use the old Genesi kernel, as it arrived in the EFIKA image (2.6.31.14.26-efikamx) from http://lizards.opensuse.org/2012/01/21/opensuse-arm-image/ The non working wifi is definitely related to udev, there were related e-mails on the factory list also for x86, that firmware for Intel wifi can't be loaded either. But Ethernet on the smart top also does not work: it receives an initial IP address from the DHCP server, but after that there is no networking, even the DHCP server can't be reached again. Networking from Ubuntu works fine fine on the same machines. Any idea how to fix this?

[opensuse-arm] Unable to login on Beagleboard xM with latest image
by Guillaume Gardet 15 Apr '12

15 Apr '12

I tried a zypper dup today but it broke my board (unable to boot since kernel file name in /boot did not match anymore and no initrd was present.) So, I wanted to boot the latest raw image but trying to log in with root/linux but I get this error: *************************************************************** linux login: root Password: Permissions on the password database may be too restrictive *************************************************************** I looked at the /etc/shadow file which seems strange to me: *************************************************************** Event # Greg Bailey <gbailey&lxpro.com> February 2002 biolink-auth 3411/tcp # BioLink Authenteon server biolink-auth 3411/udp # BioLink Authenteon server # BioLink Support <reginfo&biolinkusa.com> February 2002 xmlblaster 3412/tcp # xmlBlaster xmlblaste *************************************************************** Replaced by my /etc/shadow from my running PC and I am able to login (with the password from my PC of course). Could you please fix it ? Guillaume -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-arm] Runtime linker path for ARM v7 hard-float
by Steve McIntyre 11 Apr '12

11 Apr '12

Hey guys, There's been a *lot* of discussion about this in the last few days on the cross-distro list (and elsewhere), but I've not noticed anybody from opensuse joining in. It's very important for sane cross-distro compatibility that we agree on the location of the runtime linker. We're trying to organise a conf call to get this sorted *now* before anybody releases a stable arm-hf distro. Who from the opensuse team would like to join in? If you can join us on irc, freenode #linaro-armhf to help schedule a call ASAP that would be lovely.

[opensuse-arm] iMX51 - Update config for 3.4-rc2 + enable Multimedia support
by Guillaume Gardet 10 Apr '12

10 Apr '12

Please find in attachment a patch for the iMX51 config. I took the config from kernel-source/config/armv7l/imx51 and I added Multimedia support via menuconfig. It compiles (uImage + modules) but I haven't tested it since I have no iMX51 board. Regards, Guillaume

[opensuse-arm] DSP on OMAP3
by Guillaume Gardet 10 Apr '12

10 Apr '12

Hi, I can get the DSP working on OMAP3 (BB xM) with the latest beagle raw image (10.7). Install needed packages and load needed drivers: zypper in dsp-tools tidsp-binaries modprobe mailbox_mach modprobe bridgedriver base_img=/lib/dsp/baseimage.dof Then you can try some dsp tools: dsp-probe which returns: *** device: /codec device: /mixer device: /acdn device: /eteedn device: /mmmdn task: DASFTASK_TI task: SYNCCLOCK_TI task: dummy *** dsp-test which returns: *** copied 1000 times successfully *** I have not tested gstreamer DSP plugin yet but I will keep you up-to-date once done! I have 1 question related to module loading. Why mailbox_mach and bridgedriver are not loaded on boot? Do we need some udev rules?

[opensuse-arm] ARM TechCon
by Andrew Wafaa 05 Apr '12

05 Apr '12

ARM TechCon is where 3,500 system and software engineers dedicated to designing ARM IP-based designs gather, and is one of the most influential ARM related conferences. ARM would like it if openSUSE and SUSE could attend, preferably with a talk or two ;-) They are now accepting abstracts for ARM® TechCon™. This year's event will be held October 30 - November 1, 2012 at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Santa Clara, CA. Deadline to Submit: Friday, April 27, 2012 ARM TechCon will again have dedicated themes for each day of the event providing a comprehensive curriculum. The 2012 tracks are listed below with a separate submission for Day 1 and Days 2 & 3. Chip Design Day[0] October 30, 2012 *SoC Architecture & Analysis * SoC Design & Verification * SoC Design for Power & Performance * SoC IP Submit Your Abstract[1] Software & Systems Design Days[2] October 31 - November 1, 2012 * Android / Open Source * Computing Platforms * Developing & Debugging * Low Power Design * Microcontroller and Programmable Platforms * Multimedia Processing: Graphics, Audio & Video * Networking & Connectivity * Safety & Security * Software Optimization on ARM-Powered Systems * The Fundamentals of ARM Submit Your Abstract[3] There is a possibility that we can get some sponsorship from the openSUSE travel committee, but I make no guarantees. There is only one item that could be an issue with openSUSE or even SUSE attending the event, SUSE will need to ensure it has enrolled into ARM Connect befor we can attend. ARM will be speaking directly to SUSE about this shortly, so it shouldn't be any real issue. Please let me know if you would be happy to attend and as such present too. There's no free ticket here - if you want to mingle you need to earn it :-) Regards, Andy 0 - http://newsletters.eetimes.com/portal/wts/cemciv2dnP-6ed7eqq6D-D6f4z4cfc 1 - http://newsletters.eetimes.com/portal/wts/cemciv2dnP-6ed7eqq6D-D-f4z4cfc 2 - http://newsletters.eetimes.com/portal/wts/cemciv2dnP-6ed7eqq6D-DDf4z4cfc 3 - http://newsletters.eetimes.com/portal/wts/cemciv2dnP-6ed7eqq6D-Eef4z4cfc -- Andrew Wafaa IRC: FunkyPenguin GPG: 0x3A36312F -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-arm] Fix ARM kernel-default and kernel-u8500
by Guillaume Gardet 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

Hi, kernel-default and kernel-u8500 fail to build because eGalax touchscreen is enabled and use the function irq_to_gpio which is not available for default and u8500 kernels. Attached patches solve the problem by disabling the eGalax support for both kernels. Can anyone modify the default and u8500 config files accordingly, please? Guillaume
