Armbian build framework

Hi all I have updated the armbian repo today and all the H5 boards disappeared... Some new option to add maybe?

Hello, guys, when can we expect mainline Kernel 4.14 for sun8i h3 ? Now we have only 2 options : 4.11 or 4.13. Thank you

FYI. Merge requests with labels: "beta" or "need testings" are automatically included in next nightly builds.

Hi all. Not sure if it is me not understanding (may well be! built my last kernels in 1997 I think...) or a flaw in this patch: https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/patch/kernel/sunxi-dev/general-sunxi-overlays.patch which is supposed to fix this bug if I understand correctly: https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/1663 Looking at the patch file in my built tree: build/patch/kernel/sunxi-dev/general-sunxi-overlays.patch To my understanding it contains the (re)addition of dts files for sun7i-a20-spi{0..2}, i.e. as of line 3456 it addes the spi0.dts source. However, building the dev kernel (latest, git updated two days…

Hi, I want a clean Armbian image for BPi without systemd. I pulled the actual Armbian 5.02, elected jessie and vanilla/next kernel (4.4.2) and checked SYSTEMD settings: gerd@development ~/projekte/armbian/lib (git)-[master] % find ./ -type f -exec grep -H SYSTEMD {} \; ./configuration.sh: SYSTEMD="no" # Enable or disable systemd on Jessie in debootstrap process but systemd is still active in the created image. Is there a way to get rid off it ? I saw in the blog that systemd is now default for jessie Regards Gerd

A very simple proposal: How about creating a tag in the Github repo with each Armbian release? I think it would be very little hassle, and can be very useful in many ways.

I am trying to build 150balbes/Build-Armbian at my Ubuntu18 PC . However , the download process of toolchains are very slow. I had already spent most of the day in it. Unfortunatly , some of the toolchains was downloaded with warnings : [ warn ] Verification failed Could you please tell me the list of all needed toolchains and its source ? I will try to downlaod them in another way. Thanks ! Guofu Han

I made some changes in the build scripts and wanted to ask if some of you may find them useful... ability to use custom skel folder in /userpatches directory support for xdm display manager (with graphical keyboard) selectable display manager in expert mode (lightdm, xdm or nodm) Especially the custom skel folder gives much more flexability for modders to generate images for wip or scs boards. I am currently testing different configurations, all seems good so far. What do you think about these changes? Would a pull request make sense?

As mentioned above, how can is specify the version of kernel and u-boot when i build the image(in https://github.com/armbian/build) from scratch? Thanks in advance!

FYI, I need a DKMS module to be reloaded after I upgrade the Armbian kernel files with "dpkg -i *.deb" so the following snippet: - remove /tmp/.reboot_required - compile any header files for scripts - add my favorite frandom-dkms module gr@bpi:/armbian_kernel$ cat mod_noreboot.sh #!/bin/bash #sudo rm /tmp/.reboot_required #pushd . #for f in $(ls -d /usr/src/linux-headers-*-sunxi) #do # cd $f # sudo make scripts #done #popd sudo dpkg -i frandom-dkms_1.1-0centrych4_armhf.deb

Hello guys I have a question regarding H3 overlays. I see that during build "overlay" folder is created in arch/arm/boot/dts and H3 overlays are copied there. Can you point, please, where build framework takes those file from and how to customize this ? The goal here is to add an extra overlay. I see that the structure is very similar to https://github.com/armbian/sunxi-DT-overlays but I can't find in build scripts if you copy files from there or any other repository. Thanks.

Hello - I'm requesting that an issue tracker be added to the documentation repository on the Armbian GitHub project. This would allow various documentation improvement requests to be placed and resolution status to be easily located.

Hello guys is there a way to customize boot.cmd without changing any git-controlled files ? For example, I would like to setenv console to null. I found the file lib/config/bootenv/sunxi-default.txt but I have no idea how to override it in my userpaches folder. Thanks

Hello everybody, I'd like build the module for my usb dongle with rtl8821cu. Im using the 4.4.154 version on rk3328 tvboxes. I need the kernel sources. Is the a repo on github for this build? Thanks and excuse me for my English

Hello everybody, I'm trying to build a full bootable image for the Rock pi 4B using a VM with the recommended build system I followed the build instructions in https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Build-Preparation/. I got the image built without errors. At this point I haven't tried the image because I still want to change a source file and recompile. I changed the file in question: build/cache/sources/linux-mainline/linux-5.10.y/drivers/pci/controller/pcie-rockchip-host.c and rerun compile.sh in the build directory. The system builds again without issues, but the file I edited get replaced by the original content along the way.…

My Cubox i4pro is running Armbian. I'm using Apticron to notify me of package updates that are available for my system. Apticron usually tells me a short summary of what has changed with a certain newer version. Somehow, the armbian-firmware never shows this information. Is it available somewhere online? I would like to be able to verify what I'm updating so I can assess if there's a risk that something breaks...

Looking at this: https://github.com/armbian/build/commit/925b8592220a590b09215f08d3f06de6b8fe238d First, I would put most of the dependencies in "Recommends" and "Suggests" sections, otherwise people will be unable to remove non-essential packages they don't want. Second, I would put something like "nodm | lightdm" so you could switch the login manager without breaking things. And third, since we are discussing the desktop packages, personally I think that lightdm login dark theme looks relatively ugly (mostly you can't see element borders for user switcher dropdown menu, it's hard to read a dark font on a dark background, etc.) so mayb…

I'm trying to lock u-boot version and I create the file /userpatches/lib.config with this inside MAINLINE_UBOOT_BRANCH='tag:v2017.01', but script continue updating uboot to v2017.03. What's wrong? In configuration.sh I put echo $MAINLINE_UBOOT_BRANCH just after load lib.config and this show my tag:v2017.01.

Why do I want the source code? Well I am working with an Allwinner H5 board (Orange Pi PC 2), getting a RTOS to run on it, and want to study some of the device drives. I have found the Armbian sources for the H3 quite valuable in this way. So I spent the bulk of the afternoon and got nowhere. My desktop is a Fedora System. I don't want to install VirtualBox again (which is what I did several years ago in order to get the H3 sources). I tried the Docker thing, but Fedora 32 and Docker don't work together. Then I remembered that I have access to a system running Fedora 30, and the Docker setup worked fine there, but the process choked with this: …

Today I did build the image for stretch (for M2 Ultra) - but it was a bit strange - because it ended up in a 1.1GB .image file, but the compressed size was only 1.5MB OK, before building the image I got only 6GB free on my virtual HDD - by the last images this did work.... Now I will reinstall my build-system with the double size (60GB against 30GB before) and then I will firstly try to create a xenial image (not stretch which give me the compressed 1.50MB image whcih doesnt boot )

Hi Igor, hi team, we are using Armbian since the the first version. We only using it with Banana Pi and Banana Pi Pro. Yesterday I wanted to build a new image for our BananaPro projects, but unfortunately there is no support for Banana Pi Pro anymore. Why? Is it possible to continue supporting this board? What is the difference to the Banana Pi? You still support Banana Pi. Thanks. Steffen

I don't know if this is related to Linux kernel 5.0 but I didn't have this problem with 4.20 I used linux-headers-dev-.._arm64.deb kernel header files to compile mali kernel drivers on board I don't know if armbian changed something or it is kernel 5.0 related now I can't as linux-headers-dev debian/postinst script don't generate scripts/mod/modpost and only scripts/basic/fixdep any idea? this is output from make -d -s scripts http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/fbhr37q8GF/

Hi, I tried to use the Legacy 3.4.113 but when it loads the kernel the Cubieboard2 shows a weird scrambeled picture on the Monitor and just shuts down. So I decided to build the kernel from source. I'm pretty new to Armbian, and the compile script is a lot of different. I built the kernel using the compile.sh script for Cubieborad2. I installed the Mainline 4.9.7 Armbian on Cubieboard2. My question is how to install the built kernel (3.x) on the existing system, as if I try to install the debs I get that I can't install over existing firmware and u-boot (even with force-install)? Thanks!

Hi, I've been building nanopineoplus2 stretch images with armbian build on commit c3f02be362aa216f2d3ee011916f9a18baf58291 (August 4, 2018) and it worked fine until earlier this week. My last successful build was on 10/28/2018. Could this be failing because armbian-firmware 5.55 or some older packages were taken off the apt repo? Here is the log output: [[0;32m o.k.

Hello First issue: With the 5.4.18-sunxi64 kernel when you select in Armbian-config to install kernel headers it installs the wrong version, it install kernel headers for 5.3 something instead of the 5.4.18. The way that I was able to work is by compiling the 5.4.18-sunxi64 Linux version including the Kernel headers. I have attached it here. Second issue: When "make scripts" and make modules_prepare instead of link to the 5.4.18-sunxi64 it creates a link for modules in 5.4.18 which makes the modules useless, since it doesnt go to the correct /lib/modules library. instead that the modules will be installed in lib/modules/5.…

This is really just a bash-centic question, but I'm baffled an tired of googling. Why does passing KEY=VALUE args to compile.sh work? I don't see bash flags, arg parsing or anything.

Hi, ist it possible to select a specific kernel version in the build tool (not only next, dev ...)? I need kernel 4.17. Thanks. Steffen

Hello Armbian, Since long time ago, build system is stuck at mainline kernel version 5.10.21 (for OrangePi H2+ H3 and H5 boards). Am I doing something wrong or what? Best regards.

Greetings. Can I make sure I've understood this correctly. I want to ensure kernel sources always come from a local development directory. In my /userpatches I've got a lib.config which has: KERNELDIR="/home/user/sources/linux-sun8i" with both KERNELSOURCE and KERNELBRANCH commented out. Is this the right thing to do? And just so I can get all my idiot points at once: Specifying KERNELSOURCE and/or KERNELBRANCH will anchor the source repo and branch to whatever I wish? TAIA Jerry. P.S. Armbian *awesome* for super quick experiments/deployments.

Every quarter some one apt updates and breaks something after a release.... This can be prevented.

I have machines available at work, but I loose quite a big amount of time fighting with proxy issues. I also have VM available with proxy almost correctly configured (some protocols/ports don't work, like for adding gpg key), but the disks aren't big enough. At home, I have network without any proxy, but it's not that good... So, I was wondering if I could try and build Armbian on the cloud... for free. I tried several websites like google cloud and other services offering Docker, but I haven't found any with enough disk space. Is anyone of you building in the cloud? Thanks.

Hi there, my odroidc1 somehow died last month after updating to 5.3 test kernel so I decided to build new images from scratch starting from master.

Hi, I'm trying to build debian kernel but using mainline 5.4.12 + patches from patch/kernel/sunxi-current.

I saw bionic image for download, so I thought I would build my customized image for OPI PC based on Ubuntu Bionic and 4.18.y kernel, so I have some questions: 1.

Is there a way to increase/change CMA (contiguous memory alocator) reserved memory in kernel configuration for H3 devices? The value stays at default of 16Mb, but after kernel/image creation magically increase to some higher value like 160Mb for OpiOne (512Mb RAM), or 256Mb for OpiPC (1Gb RAM). Even if i try to change the value in kernel configuration, like i used to in A20, with: KERNEL_CONFIGURE="yes" FORCE_CHECKOUT="no" in compile.sh , this have no effect for H3 and the above values of 160Mb/256Mb stays the same. So i guess it's defined somewhere else, patch maybe? Is there a way to change this? I want to see if increasing the CMA value will help to get rid of "out…

Hi, since a Geekbox (Rockchip RK3368) and two Pine64+ (Allwinner A64) are collecting dust and at least for the latter longsleep already prepared a nice image build process that makes including a 'foreign' rootfs quite easy I thought about supporting arm64 also and not just only armhf. But I still lack oversights over our own build process or don't know in which direction other devs will move (I saw zador rearranging stuff the last days) so I thought I better ask first instead of hacking around I thought about adding a global variable defaulting to "armhf" and setting it to "arm64" for the new boards in configuration.sh since we later have to call make ARCH=…

Today i wanted to try some changes an build a new kernel for my H3 PCPlus. When I executed compile.sh i got a Message that the script was outdated. So i copied a newer Version from lib to my root directory. I made thechanges i did before: Set KERNEL_Configure to "yes" and set DEST_LANG="de_DE.UTF-8" (that was the only way to get a clean translated german Desktop before..) Now I get a warning Message: [ warn ] Can't update since you made changes to: compile.sh When I hit Enter the next thing happens: The Toolchan is downloaded every time. Is this really necessary? I have only a volume based Internet connection... Regards

Is it possible to download debian sources for the armbian kernels? If so where are these located?

Hi - does the kernel 4.16 for Stretch 9 for the Odroid C2 support the cryptographic APIs options: (1) CMAC (2) User-space interface for hash algorithms (3) User-space interface for symmetric key cipher algorithms Thank you. -- Cinaed

Hi, I'm trying to compile a kernel using the procedure described here: https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib I've set the KERNEL_ONLY="yes" in the compile.sh script, but I get the following error after a while I wonder what i've missed or if there's some other issues. I've tried both the master branch and v2016.08 tag, same result. My system lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS Release: 16.04 Codename: xenial Linux apu 4.4.0-36-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 11 18:01:55 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Any pointers would be much appreciated, Thanks …

Hello guys I need instructions on how to skip mandatory steps during first load when Armbian requires to login as root and use password 1234. What I need is to have pi account created automatically during sd-image build (with a custom password) and assigned a predefined set of groups. I want Armbian start and auto-login with pi account and run my linuxfb-based full-screen application. It seems like customize-image.sh is the right place to create a new account on target image. But how can I disable that startup poll to create a new user, change password, etc? Thanks

Hi, I just made a brand new VM to build armbian this morning so after installing Bionic / checking out the sources, I started `compile.sh` for the first time and I got theses warning / errors (15 minutes ago) : E: Version '1.2.0' for 'aptly' was not found [ o.k. ] Syncing clock [ host ] [ .... ] Downloading [ gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-4.8-2014.04_linux ] -=O=- # # # # curl: (7) Failed to connect to dl.armbian.com port 443: Connection refused curl: (7) Failed to connect to dl.armbian.com port 443: Connection refused [ .... ] Verifying grep: gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-4.8-2014.04_linux.tar.…

Hi, i try to build my own UserPatch for orangepizero. Sometimes i use my own Workaround with Editing Build-Files (old Builder). Please explain me replacing "patch/kernel/sun8i-default/02-0011-fbtft_for_older.patch" with FB-TFT Original Sources. (More Devices) Thanks

Hello guys, is there any reason why you still build the old Kernel 4.11 for h3/sun8i ? Thanks

Hello, I try to use the Armbian build framework to generate a debian package with modified kernel, generated packages.deb works fine, but the compiled kernel is everytime the default and not mine. I use: ./compile.sh KERNEL_CONFIGURE=yes KERNEL_KEEP_CONFIG=no and then load my kernel_config but the result is everytime the default kernel, the .config become change then my .config I also try to bypass the problem by adding immutable attribute to my personalized .config (chattr +i ./.config) but the script crash: │ /home/maxi/sources/linux-sun8i/sun8i/scripts/kconfig/Makefile:33: recipe for target 'silentoldconfig' failed …

Hi, my name is Tom and i am an embedded developer. I am aiming to dig into the CSI0 camera interface for the bananapi. Admittedly, i am new to the linux way of coding and compilation. Thus far for armbian, i realized,... ....compilation by script "compile.sh"...which checks all needed tools, code, updates...downloads everything...runs a config screen to select target, platform, ...and yeah..it works. When i run the script two times ...it keeps compiling again. hmm+ My experience is, that i do have the sourcecode, a compiler script/makefile....and it will just update the changes i did on the source. (old scool:-) so if i have the source in a direc…

I have read carefully documentation : https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_User-Configurations/ But I can't succeed building with this file modified : ./sources/linux-sun8i/sun8i/drivers/media/rc/sunxi-cir.c Before compiling I have this : [ warn ] Make your changes in this directory: [ /root/crosscompile/sources/u-boot/v2017.03 ] [ warn ] Press <Enter> after you are done [ waiting ] I paste the file, but I have : [ warn ] No changes found, skipping patch creation Where I must copy paste my "sunxi-cir.c" file ? How do I do it

Hello, guys, I got a third-party source code for a GPU kernel module, compatible with mainline. I need to build & install it during the Armbian build procedure. I know what to do when "Full image" is selected in configuration , i.e. I can use customize-image-host.sh. Is there any good way to build it when "Kernel only" mode is selected ? Thanks
