Description of changes by commit Fix variable $root_partition_device to be a device path - as it is intended to be. Otherwise at least this line would fail: https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/8cc5b2664c8e49e252e5d383b983b8601440d8e7/packages/bsp/common/usr/sbin/armbian-install#L539 root_partition_device is all time equal to root_partition_device_name, since the lsblk does not list device path names rather than just the device (end-)name. Fixed to get e.g.: root_partition_device=/dev/mmcblk0 root_partition_device_name=mmcblk0 commit: d7cf33ae3ce9850d4b9e0f9edb4ec7595fb2220a Fix determination and usage of variable $sduuid Issue: The last grep filter in the follow…

Description Since of historical reasons script armbian-install is still creating a log file with name /var/log/nand-sata-install.log as well as using other artifacts from folder /usr/lib/nand-sata-install. I would like to align those names to comply with the original script name having been run: If run as nand-sata-install => create /var/log/nand-sata-install.log, lookup artifacts in /usr/lib/nand-sata-install If run as armbian-install => create /var/log/armbian-install.log, lookup artifacts in /usr/lib/armbian-install To achieve 2.

Description The BOOTPATCHDIR and KERNELPATCHDIR variables can contain multiple directories names separated by spaces as explained in lib/functions/compilation/uboot-patching.sh and lib/functions/compilation/kernel-patching.sh respectively but when calculating hash we were treating it as a single directory name. Also as ATF and crust gets bundled in u-boot, the hash of their patches must also be considered to determine if we need to rebuild u-boot How Has This Been Tested? Please describe the tests that you ran to verify your changes. Please also note any relevant details for your test configuration. [X] Tested by adding removing patches in patch/u-boot/u-boot-sunxi, pa…

artifacts: introduce calculate_hash_for_variables() which normalizes the input; use in kernel/uboot/etc Does not look like it, but this is a bugfix -- UBOOT_TARGET_MAP might contain $SRC (due to BL31=, etc) and that is hashed into something only ever matches by accident Also fixes artifact-armbian-desktop vs appgroups/config_base differences some hashed variables might contain "${SRC}", so hashes never match, unless built in Docker - this strips away SRC from all vars and adds debugging so we can detect more later. artifact-uboot: include more variables into hash, for ATF & rk stuff artifact-armbian-desktop: - hashed vars actually contain /armbian in different…

Description When booting U-Boot for rockchip64 or rk3588 devices, the error Failed to load '...-fixup.scr' pops up. This PR fixes this error by checking if the file exists before trying to load it. This PR partially fixes https://github.com/armbian/build/issues/6398 Unfortunately, I was not able to fix the error with missing kaslrseed (even though it may only be cosmetic). Note: U-Boot uses Hush cli language. Not this Hush cli (!) but a different old Hush shell in Busybox which is very badly documented overall unfortunately. I could not find any Hush functionality or a U-Boot command to check if the command kaslrseed exists. Should we include CONFIG_CMD_KASLRSEED for e…

Description The "swapaccount=" option has been deprecated in 6.1. Disable it in almost all boot scripts except "boot-sun50iw9.cmd" since that one is used in sun50iw9 legacy kernel, which is version 4.9. In theory, rk3588-legacy is also still <6.1, but that boot script is also used by 6.1 vendor kernel and the amount of new images being built/used with the 5.10 legacy kernel is likely minimal. As far as I know, bootscript won't update automatically, so these changes will only apply to freshly built images. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
