postmarketos-ui-plasma-mobile has plasma-camera in _pmb_recommends.
plasma-camera does not build for x86, because mpg123-libs-1.26.3-r0 is
still broken in Alpine edge repos (aports#11807).
Disable postmarketos-ui-plasma-mobile for x86 again, so the CI check
test_aports_ui doesn't fail anymore with:
postmarketos-ui-plasma-mobile/APKBUILD: package 'plasma-camera' from _pmb_recommends not found for arch 'x86'

[ci:skip-build]: unfortunately, postmarketos-ui-plasma-mobile fails to

I'll create MRs to Alpine to fix the broken depends, so we should be
able to enable it again soon.

Pressing power button should not power off a device. Although it is
expected on desktops and laptops, it isn't expected on phones and
tablets. Instead it should just turn off the screen or go into a deep
sleep, but that isn't handled by elogind. So let elogind just ignore the
button altogether.
Also re-order the dependencies alphabetically while we're touching the
package anyway
Previously we added the header in the kernel packages but as we already
add the ramdisk header here and to simplify the process we also add the
addition of the kernel header into mkinitfs.
With the new mobile-config-firefox, the window width is small enough
that the window does not need to be scaled. This looks better overall,
and avoids scaling glitches.
New version does not just support Firefox 68 (firefox-esr in Alpine 3.12),
which is going to be EOL soon. It also supports the new ESR 78
(firefox-esr in Alpine edge, soon also in 3.12, supported until ~2021-04)
and 79 (current stable "rapid release" version; firefox in Alpine edge).
The source was moved to a dedicated git repo, so other distributions can
also use it. Keep the distro-specific links here in a separate HTML
file, so they can be modified without changing
mobile-config-firefox.git.

Disable the first run screen in GNOME software, which invites the user
to browse and install apps. We do not want people to use GNOME software to
do that when they open it for the first time in postmarketOS after
installing, we want them to do updates. So this dialog is misleading for
our users, and will lead to a bad experience for those who follow what
it suggests.
I think there's more wrong with that dialog (in context of postmarketOS),

Replace firefox with firefox-esr, remove epiphany. With the current
version of epiphany, the postmarketOS wiki doesn't even load every time,
so that's not something we want to ship.
Add policies.json and prefs.js to configure Firefox (yes, you need both

Mobile improvements:
* Enable zooming with fingers
* Mobile user agent (from tor browser for android)
Privacy improvements:
* Disable search suggestions, so URLs do not get sent to search engines
as they are getting typed.
* Disable Firefox studies
* Disable Telemetry
* Set DuckDuckGo as default search engine, not Google
Uncluttering (screen space, remove broken features, less distractions):
* Move all buttons to the overflow menu and remove spacers around the
address bar
* Empty "new tab" page (loads faster, no annoying "top sites" etc.)
* Disable developer tools, so the hamburger menu fits the screen of the
pinephone. These aren't really useful on phones anyway.
* Disable "Firefox Screenshots": the feature did not work with the mobile
resolution in Phosh.
* No default bookmarks from Firefox
* Disable First Run Page
* Disable Post Update Page
* Disable "User Messaging" (What's new, Extension/Feature
Recommendations, Urlbar Interventions)
Add a local html file that serves as lightweight default homepage. It
links to the postmarketOS blog and wiki, explains that this is desktop
firefox with mobile configuration and explains how to change settings
and install addons (with a direct link to ublock origin). Users can
override the homepage, new tab page, search engine, search suggestions
pre-configured by this package directly in the UI.
I chose Firefox ESR, because:
* It fits the screen better: the "new tab" button is bigger, the menu
opening when you click the top-right button actually fits the screen,
with all its submenus. There are zoom controls in the same menu, which
make the preferences pages very usable.
* It's possible to override the default search engine with a policy
file; that's not possible in non-ESR firefox (we'd probably need to
change it in the sources).

In phosh, we have broken Cheese (Camera) and Extensions (from GNOME shell)
icons in the launcher. They get dragged in via dependencies, so the
easiest way to disable them is just overruling the .desktop icon. We can
make Cheese visible again in a post-install script (just check if it
points to nodisplay.desktop and delete the link) once we have it working.
Hide icons for terminal programs (htop, nvim, vim) as well as "Firefox
Safe Mode" too. If somebody really wants to use the FF safe mode, they
can do so via terminal.
Have a simple initial version, maybe make it more sophisticated with
UI-specific hidden icons later (right now, it doesn't make sense to
install this in normal GNOME, because there you would need
org.gnome.Extensions). (There is "NotShowIn=phosh" (untested), but using
this would mean that we need to keep all the information of the original
desktop file for the UIs that will display them; we can't just use the
symlink trick. I'm not sure if we want that at all, but it's
definitively over-engineered for now.)
The p? is not redundant. Without it, the p in mmcblk0p2 for example does
not get cut off, meaning the resulting device is not "mmcblk0" but
"mmcblk0p". My bad, sorry for the breakage.
Fixes: 9f6600ba ("main/postmarketos-mkinitfs: rm pmOS_deleteme")
Fixes: 9d86f6fe ("main/postmarketos-mkinitfs: resize: unallocated space check, even if forced")
Remove the "pmOS_deleteme" partition left behind by the on-device
installer, if it exists. Let the existing resize_root_partition() extend
the root partition over the newly gained space (and rest of the storage
device) right afterwards.
In resize_root_partition(), put the unallocated space check into an
extra function has_unallocated_space(). Run it even if
PMOS_FORCE_PARTITION_RESIZE is used, so we don't attempt to resize the
partition if there is no free space.
While at it, change "sed 's/p?2$//'" to "sed 's/2$//' in an already
modified line, because it means the same thing and is less confusing
(? in regex means: 0 or 1 time).
Enable CONFIG_CRYPTO_XTS for each kernel, so we can switch to using
aes-xts-plain64 as default cipher for cryptsetup (override with
"pmbootstrap --cipher"), instead of aes-cbc-plain64 (pmbootstrap#1940).
I have executed "pmbootstrap kconfig edit" on each kernel, and manually
toggled the option. The diff is not always clean, because for some
kernels it is apparently the first time, that menuconfig was executed on
the configs like that. In a few instances, it turned out that
CONFIG_ANDROID_PARANOID_NETWORK needed to be disabled too (this is
already a requirement, but as the config was incomplete, it was not
visible that this option was enabled). Very few times, I had to enable
CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL in order to see and enable CONFIG_CRYPTO_XTS.
It would be great if we could automate such mass kconfig edits in the
future, see pmbootstrap#1942.
[skip ci]: I have verified, that every single one of these kernels builds.
CI will likely run out of time while downloading source tarballs.
Seems like "pmbootstrap kconfig edit" causes unrelated kernel config
changes for some reason (probably because pmbootstrap does not install
a cross compiler for it). For now let's just edit the config manually
with the new options so everything else stays as-is.
Only add a comment, do not try to mount the root or boot partitions
anymore. The initramfs is doing this already.

Mount the boot partition at /sysroot/boot and keep it mounted, when
running the switch_root command. This way, OpenRC doesn't need to mount
it and possibly use the wrong partition. The OpenRC service does not use
the same logic to find the boot partition, in particular it does not
support the pmos_boot kernel parameter.
While at it, print the mountpoint and read-only/read-write arguments in
the mounting log message for both root and boot.

Get rid of the "write_unless_modified" code, which was supposed to only
change /etc/fstab, /etc/issue, /etc/motd if the user did not modify it.
This is nice in theory, but we have a bug report where the code did not
do what it should (apk audit possibly failed due to a qemu bug?), and
then it lead to strange bugs related to not having the expected
/etc/fstab installed.

This enables mult-sensor support in sun6i-csi, support for the

gitlab.com had a service disruption, so it was not possible to "git
clone" from gitlab.com from some regions, like where the sourcehut
infrastructure is located. Since we are building our packages on
builds.sr.ht, this caused all packages that should be built at that time
to fail. It is working again, so bump the pkgrels to restart the builds.
This switch has happened in the Alpine repos quite a while ago and most
of the pmOS packages were using it already too, so let's switch over the
last ones as well.
This also cleans up the APKBUILDs where necessary
In the Linux kernel, the ST-Ericsson NovaThor U8500 SoC is barely

At the moment we have Contributor: lines on some packages (but not all of them),

who made most of the work for a device...)
The Git history is the most representative source for figuring out
who contributed to a package, so there is no reason to duplicate that

Read kernel module names from files in
/etc/postmarketos-mkinitfs/modules and print out which modules are
required by which of these files as the initramfs gets generated. Put
the default modules into a new 00-default.modules. This allows mkinitfs
hooks to add modules to the initramfs.
Parse the modules from a file similar to modules-load.d, with commented
lines and empty lines ignored. Add a simple test script for that and run
it in check().
Split mkinitfs.sh into two files, so the functions (now in
mkinitfs_functions.sh) can be sourced in a test. Such a test will be
added in the next commit.
Move $BINARIES_EXTRA into the get_binaries_extra() function, so its
$(find...) does not get executed when sourcing the functions file. Move
$BINARIES into get_binaries() too for consistency.
Make it pass shellcheck by fixing obvious mistakes like '==' instead of
'='. Add "shellcheck disable" lines for things that are intentionally done
or would be a bit more complicated to rewrite. It would be nice to
refactor some things like '${outfile/initramfs-/uImage-}', but this should
be done in a separate change (patches welcome).
Remove unused variable "modules_path". While at it, add two new fatal
error messages instead of just "exit 1" without any comment and remove
redundant mkdir in APKBUILD.
We'll use the new RTL8723CS driver in the kernel tree instead

Partial revert of 24fa68c9 ("avoid storing initramfs-extra twice").
Some people have (rightfully) complained that including the hash
in the filename of the initramfs-extra prevents the device from booting
whenever the boot partition gets out of sync with the boot image.
In general we should assume that those two are in sync, but there is
no need to unnecessarily break this if previously booting the outdated
extra initramfs worked just fine.
At the end, the hash is just an implementation detail for the caching
mechanism - we need it when (re-)generating the initramfs, but it does
not have to be within the filename. Instead, we can simply append the
hash to the file contents. GZIP will simply ignore the trailing garbage.
The boot partition will then look like:
$ cat /boot/initramfs-<flavor>-extra
<GZIP data>d3c7b449c6fc811d97351bbc46852b66 (the hash)
This makes the filename of initramfs-extra nice and stable again.
It also fixes a regression where the initramfs-extra would no longer
get symlinked by "pmbootstrap export" (I was going to fix that in
pmbootstrap but now this solution is more appealing...)
While we're at it: Make the script more resilient again by writing
to a temporary file first, then move it (atomically) to the real path.
We should do this in the UI packages that need it rather than in the
device packages themselves because for example Phosh doesn't need Ofono
but ModemManager
HOSTCC defaults to gcc, so we should only set it to override it
if we want to use an older GCC. Removing it avoids annoying linter

wileyfox-crackling was the only user of QCDT. Now that it is also
using appended DTBs, there is no need to generate the QCDT image anymore.
Another advantage of this is that mainline can then be only booted using lk2nd
(as intended), since booting it from the stock bootloader has weird side effects
(e.g. no WiFi/BT MAC address set).
That path works just as well as documented at
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qstandardpaths.html (GenericConfigLocation) and
it doesn't depend on the user being created after the package has been
installed.
polkit rely on systemd, so we don't get correctly working setup.

At the moment we store the same initramfs-extra twice on the file system:
- /boot/initramfs-<flavor>-extra
- /var/cache/postmarketos-mkinitfs/initramfs-<flavor>-extra_<hash>
The second copy is exactly the same file, just with the <hash> (for caching)
appended to the filename.
We can avoid this by appending the hash directly to the filename
on the boot partition, i.e.
- /boot/initramfs-<flavor>-extra_<hash>
This is possible because we only reference initramfs-extra from the main
initramfs, and we already replace the path in it dynamically.
It will just let the main initramfs load -extra_<hash> instead of just -extra.
This saves a few megabytes of disk space on the rootfs.
postmarketos-ui-sway already depends on xorg-server-xwayland for
X clients. There is no need to pull in the entire X server including
all necessary drivers.
This saves ~84 MiB of disk space when installing postmarketos-ui-sway
on asus-me176c. X applications are still working fine through Xwayland.
Also remove explicit dependency on dbus - it is already pulled in
by dependencies like lightdm or elogind and nothing in
postmarketos-ui-sway depends on it specifically.
We need to generate the splash screens separately for each device,
because they are specific to the device's display resolution.
At the moment we do this dynamically during the installation process.
This has the advantage that there is no need to re-build all device
packages when one of the splash screen is changed (or a new one is added).
In reality, however, the splash screens do not change very frequently.
On the other hand, generating the splash screens dynamically has signficant
disk usage overhead for a minimal ("none" UI) rootfs:
The Python interpreter together with the necessary libraries requires
about ~60 MB of disk space on aarch64.
The splash screens itself require about ~100 KB for 720x1280.
This is not necessary if we move the splash screen generation into
devicepkg-dev, which is used to build the device package for all devices.
Another advantage is that we no longer need the (rather complicated)
caching mechanism for splash screens - so we actually end up with less
lines than before.
rootfs size for samsung-a5ulte ("none" UI):
Before: 450M
After: 388M (-62M)
After this change, every(!) device package needs to be rebuilt once.
No changes are necessary in device packages.

If (a) the kernel command line parameters include PMOS_BOOTCHART2 and

Port bootchart2 to PostmarketOS, with three patches:
1. Modification of /etc/bootchartd.conf so that the collector
will stop after sshd has started.
2. Python 3.8 compatibility
3. Disable the interactive mode of pybootchartgui.
Use bootchart2 to profile system boot or a running system.
1. Add the bootchart2 package to your device.
2. Add the following kernel command line parameters: initcall_debug
printk.time=y quiet
3. To profile system boot
a. add the following kernel command line parameter: PMOS_BOOTCHART2.
This parameter causes mkinitfs to start /sbin/bootchartd instead of
/sbin/init. /sbin/bootchartd then starts /sbin/init.
b. (optional) modify EXIT_PROC in /etc/bootchartd.conf to define
when the collector is to stop.
c. Boot the system. Approximately 20 seconds after sshd starts
(if using the default value of EXIT_PROC), the collector
will exit.
4. To profile a running system
a. use the command '/sbin/bootchartd start' (as root) to start
profiling
b. use the command '/sbin/bootchartd stop' (as root) to stop
profiling
5. When the collector exits, /usr/bin/pybootchartgui will create
a visualization in /var/log/bootchart.png.

Unfortunately, early firmware versions on MSM8916 (used together with
Android 4.4) are not capable of booting aarch64 kernels. MSM8916 was
Qualcomm's first 64-bit capable CPU, and back when it was introduced
Android did not even support aarch64 yet. So the aarch64 capable
hardware was usually used together with armv7 binaries.
To make things worse, this firmware is also signed (usually per-device),
making it (currently) impossible to update it without help from the manufacturer.
This means that we are currently unable to run mainline on devices
that never received an update to Android 5.0
(e.g. the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini Value Edition).
One way to circumvent this limitation is to build mainline for armv7.
This works surprisingly well with some additional fixes.
Devices with this firmware limitation are still unable to use aarch64
binaries, but at least we can run mainline on them!

It seems the the CFLAGS are not properly set in the CMakeLists.txt.
Cmake currently appends -std=gnu90 at the end of the CFLAGS, overriding
the earlier set -std=c99. Work around this with sed. Better fix is
welcome, this is a stop-gap solution to unbreak the build (which is
blocking build.postmarketos.org).
It's unmaintained both on our side and upstream. Nobody stepped up to
maintain it (https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/pmaports/issues/372), so
let's drop it before it introduces security issues and compilation
problems.
ConfigFS USB attrs are customizable based on the `deviceinfo_usb_*` variables,
however some downstream kernels (e.g: msm-3.18) doesn't use configfs, instead
uses the traditional Android USB Gadget.
Based on `deviceinfo_usb_{idVendor/idProduct}` variables, we can change the USB
vendor and product.
So that on these devices, we can make it appear on USB bus as the correct USB
vendor/product ID, not "Google Inc. Nexus 4 (fastboot)"

At the moment, a full file system check is forced even if the
file system is marked clean (i.e. it was properly unmounted the
last time it was used). On large file systems with slow I/O
(e.g. SD cards), this can take a significant amount of time.
Removing the -f option of e2fsck allows skipping the full
file system check if it is marked clean, speeding up the boot time.
Some devices' downstream kernels may have different RNDIS/functionfs
drivers (ex. QCRNDIS) that require different values for some
configfs gadget attributes. Make it possible to customize with
deviceinfo file from device- package.
The idea is that each device- package can optionally specify a
bunch of `deviceinfo_usb_*` variables to customize the way it is
visible on USB bus. The ability to override
`deviceinfo_usb_rndis_function` is essential to make downstream
sdm660 based device to appear on USB bus.
While at it, make `idVendor`, `idProduct` and `serialnumber` also
customizable. So that we can make, for example, PineTab appear on
USB bus as PineTab, not as "Google Inc. Nexus 4 (fastboot)".
Mainline U-Boot looks for the device tree blob in the "second" area
of the Android boot image (see https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1025211/).
Add an option "deviceinfo_bootimg_dtb_second" to place the device DTB there.
Currently, the USB networking setup using configfs does not configure
a "serialnumber" for the USB gadget. This means that an empty
serial number will be sent during USB enumeration.
This is usually not a problem, but it seems to cause issues under
special circumstances (on asus-me176c on one of my PCs).
The USB Gadget configfs documentation also suggests setting
the "serialnumber":
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/usb/gadget_configfs.txt
It can be any string, so we can just set it as "postmarketOS" like
the manufacturer.
The openrc service of lightdm has been moved to lightdm-openrc in

Upgrade and add depends to static libraries to make it build again. When
the package was added initially, the static libraries were part of the
respective -dev packages.
The initramfs needs ext4 (to mount the rootfs) and usb_f_rndis
(to enable USB networking on devices that use USB configfs).
If these are built as modules, they need to be included in initramfs.

We have linux-postmarketos-qcom and linux-postmarketos-qcom-msm8916 now,
which is quite confusing. linux-postmarketos-qcom was originally added
for MSM8974 devices (e.g. Nexus 5) and its patches on top of mainline
are therefore quite focused on MSM8974.
linux-postmarketos-qcom-msm8916 on the other hand, has patches specific
to MSM8916. The two packages do not have any patch in common, therefore
merging the two would only cause signficiant overhead to coordinate
testing for devices of the two SoCs.
Therefore, it is better to keep them separate.
To avoid confusion, rename linux-postmarketos-qcom to
linux-postmarketos-qcom-msm8974 to make it clear that it is really
a close-to-mainline kernel for MSM8974 devices.

Previously, running reboot-mode as an unprivileged user resulted in
Error: No error information
without a newline at the end. According to SYSCALL(2), the return value
of -1 indicated an error, but the actual error code is stored in errno.
The DRM module itself can not do anything without a DRM driver.
It just takes up precious space (about ~5 MB for aarch64)
on the boot partition.
Devices that do include the appropriate DRM driver via
deviceinfo_modules_initfs will automatically pull in
"drm" and "drm_kms_helper" as dependencies, if needed.
So there is no need to depend on it explicitly.

kirigami-gallery is not meant for users, but it is good testing
application and is even part of reference image provided by Plasma
Mobile team.
For now we are not targetting plasma-mobile towards users anyway and
only developers, so include kirigami-gallery in main UI package.
Currently we rely on the fact, that the kernel asks user space to load
the firmware for it, so we can use the /lib/firmware/postmarketos
directory for firmware.
As the kernel has support for loading the firmware itself since
v3.7, and the parameter for adding an additional path to the search
paths was added with v3.10, we can use that to not rely on
CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER being set.
Update to the 5.2 kernel plus my patches for the Nexus 5 display that

currently 25 extra patches on top of 5.2:
- The first 9 patches after the 5.2 commit are currently in 5.3rc1 and
were back ported to 5.2. All of these patches have 'Commit XXX
upstream.' messages in the commit message.
- The next 9 patches are for ocmem support and some msm display fixes. I
expect that these will be merged upstream for 5.4rc1.
- The remaining 7 patches are still not suitable to send upstream.

Fix wifi on htc-ace by properly setting nl80211 before wext.
/etc/conf.d/wpa_supplicant is supposed to get modified twice with the
current code in the post-install file. The first one was patched
recently to set nl80211 before wext, but that change does not work in
practice, for two reasons:
1. The code block does not even get executed, because apk reports that
/etc/conf.d/wpa_supplicant was already modified (by a package that
was installed before, in its post-install script? I could not find
out which one does that though).
2. Even if it worked, the second code block would revert the change and
put wext before nl80211 again.
Fix this by removing the first code block, and changing the order in the
second one. Make it easier to catch such errors in the future, by
printing, which files get modified, or get skipped. Set "#!/bin/sh -e",
so the script can not fail silently.

Use the start_weston.sh wrapper script again, and make it work with
lightdm. It makes custom weston configs possible, and allows starting
postmarketos-demos together with weston. The custom config logic uses a
default config from postmarketos-ui-weston unless it is overwritten
with a device specific config. Our default configs use fbdev in most
cases, as this is not the case since the change to lightdm, weston was
broken for most devices with downstream kernels, that only work with
framebuffer.
Lastly, set myself as maintainer for this UI. Resolves#289
Ollieparanoid extended this patch and made sure that this boots up
weston on the samsung-i9100 again.
When the UI package is reinstalled (due to the package being recompiled

package is rebuilt, and the user ran pmbootstrap install without

This adds the first interactive tests for inputs, interactive tests are
only run when specifying --interactive/-i. This also adds --export and
--verify. The export option will write the test results to an .ini file.
The verify option will run the tests and compare it to the saved export

Currently we are facing another upstream compatibility issue with
Alpine, which is why CI will fail: polkit and therefore
networkmanager don't exist for armhf, armv7. See #244 for details.
This script triggers late initialization of some platform
drivers that cannot be probed at boot time, because for
example they use firmware blobs on partitions that are
not mounted during early kernel startup.
Disabled by default, can be enabled on per-device basis.
Plasma lockscreen is currently hard or impossible to unlock
using phone itself, that's why you should send a command to
ConsoleKit over DBus in a shell. This script saves from extra
typing.
The postmarketos initramfs is larger than android initramfs. This causes
problems on some devices like htc-ace that have a very small boot
partition (4MB in htc-ace). I've been able to make the boot image small
enough to fit by compressing initramfs using lzma.
With this change it should be possible to change the compression in
deviceinfo like this: deviceinfo_initfs_compression='lzma'
or even deviceinfo_initfs_compression='lzma -9'. When no option is
specified it defaults to 'gzip -1'.
I've also added dependencies to compression utilities for all possible
initramfs compression algorithms.

ConfigFS expects idVendor and idProduct values to be prefixed with 0x.
Without this change, google-crosshatch shows as a device with 0:0 as the
idVendor/idProduct in lsusb:
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0000:0000
This confuses VirtualBox: it has trouble detaching this device from
a virtual machine, so one must manually use ifconfig to bring down the
old USB network connection before reattaching.
With this change, the idVendor/idProduct is correct:
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 18d1:d001 Google Inc.
This issue also seems to affect other devices with ConfigFS, such as the
Nexus 5:

Instead of never overwriting compiler-gcc.h if it exists, overwrite it
by default except if OVERWRITE_GCCH=0 is set in the environment.
Most kernels *do* need this file replaced and won't build without this
patch.
The 5.0 kernel now includes -Werror= parameters in the makefile, this
changes downstreamkernel_prepare.sh to support them. Without this, the
script will replace, for example, -Werror=blah with =blah, which causes
the kernel compilation to fail.
We had 2 music players included which doesn't make sense, and vvave is
actually made with a focus on mobile.
[skip ci]: do not try to build this merge request, ollieparanoid made
sure that it builds for x86_64, armhf, aarch64.
Add firmware-rtl8723bt package and Pine wifi and bluetooth firmware
subpackage.
[skip ci]: ollieparanoid will build this MR manually before merging, it
will probably not finish CI within one hour.

This is a neat way to get relative performance between devices and
testing performance for upstream/downstream kernels.
Add python2 to makedepends, so it builds in strict mode for armv7.
Otherwise it would fail with:
checking whether /usr/bin/python2 version >= 2.6... configure: error: too old
This MR updates the app to the latest commit (currently from 2 days
ago). It also updates plasma-angelfish, but I changed the $pkgrel to
follow the format of the other Git packages.
This also re-enables plasma-angelfish and vvave in the default Plasma
Mobile installation, as they were previously disabled due to
qt5-qtwebengine (which they depend on) requiring a soname bump
upstream.
Add main/qt5-qtspeech, required dependency for kde/kpimtextedit. Disable
check in kde/kimap, as it fails at least with QEMU aarch64.
Change the source url for Sink and Kube to the KDE Download mirror
rather than their GitHub organization (they required rebuilding anyway
due to the applications upgrade).
Switch plasma-mobile to use xdg-shell instead of wl-shell. wl-shell is
deprecated in Qt 5.12 and is breaking plasmashell, it seems.
Related upstream issue:
https://invent.kde.org/kde/plasma-phone-components/issues/2
This introduces another regression that applications don't start
maximized. Will have to solve this issue upstream.
Closes#159
The show_splash function called by the 20-debug-shell.sh script already
skips fbsplash when the device is configured to not use the framebuffer.
But the variable was not defined in the script. This is solved by
including the /etc/deviceinfo file.
Follow-up to !108, where this change got lost in the rebase.
Let pmbootstrap properly parse the package URLs, this is required for
the next commit where we start comparing the pkgver of all QT packages
- based on the URL like we do it for the KDE packages.
Depend on wayland-dev and remove the LuneOS related patch that does not
apply anymore. We don't ship LuneOS UI anymore (see #49), so there's no
point in carrying around the patch.
This package was broken in the upgrade to Qt 5.12.
Also noticed that the debug-shell hook wasn't sourcing the deviceinfo
and still showing the splashscreen even with
deviceinfo_no_framebuffer="true", now is fixed and tested.
Additionally, fix a typo in the existing
"NOTE: Skipping framebuffer setup..." message.
When util-linux v2.32 updated v2.33, remounting a partition stopped
working.
mount -n -o remount,rw /
mount: /: can't find LABEL="pmOS_root".
This service will add the pmOS rootfs partitions to device mapper so that
the remount root partition will succeed.
Fixes issue #156
This is a followup to !109 (merged). Affected packages:
* device/linux-samsung-p4wifi
* device/linux-sony-tulip
* device/linux-teclast-x80pro
* main/linux-postmarketos-allwinner
* main/linux-postmarketos-mainline
* main/linux-postmarketos-qcom
* main/linux-postmarketos-stable
[skip ci] I have confirmed that all 7 kernels still compile.
Builds abuild-sign and abuild-tar.static without any dependencies, so
they can be used outside of an Alpine Linux system. We need this for
build.postmarketos.org.
I noticed that some times the framebuffer driver gets configured in a
way that the ioctl performed by msm-fb-refresher returns something lower
than zero:
0ed263db09/drivers/video/fbmem.c (L877-L911)
For example when the Xorg starts I noticed it does a ioctl BLANK and
UNBLANK, but if msm-fb-refresher performs a ioctl in that moment it
stops its loop and exit.
For this reason I lost a lot of time trying to understand what was the
problem with Xorg not displaying anything until I noticed that I had
to restart the msm-fb-refresher.
With this change we don't have to care about msm-fb-refresher as it will
continue call ioctl PAN even if the framebuffer returns some negative
error code.
Do not add --pixman-type to the commandline, when
deviceinfo_weston_pixman_type is filled out.
--pixman-type was enabled in Weston with a custom patch, that currently
prevents us from upgrading Weston (#136).
The option allowed working around broken framebuffer drivers in
Android downstream kernels, which reported the wrong color format.
But it only works for Weston, the right way to patch this would be
patching the kernels, and we have some approaches here:
https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Troubleshooting:display#My_screen_is_red.21
When rendering on framebuffer, always do software rendering. This
should make it possible to boot up Plasma Mobile on most devices with
downstream kernels, although terribly slow. Still better than a black
screen though. Tested and working on the samsung-i9100.
We can improve the code and possibly make the rendering mode
configurable per device once we experimented more with:
* llvmpipe vs. softpipe on various devices
* armv7 (around the corner in Alpine)
* a proper display manager like lightdm
Both depend on qt5-qtwebengine, which needs to be rebuilt in Alpine
after the soname bump of libavformat [1]. Disable them for now, so
plasma mobile can still be installed, and the pmbootstrap test case
that installs it runs through again.
[1]: https://github.com/alpinelinux/aports/pull/5586
Adjust the mime-type that gets used to find executables to
application/x-pie-executable and change the APKBUILD logic to print out
a meaningful error when the executables can not be found.
Also fix the broken patch logic (doesn't display an error anymore).
Fix Nexus 5 (hammerhead) boot and framebuffer issues at startup by
waiting up to 10 seconds until the rootfs and /dev/fb0 have been
found. Waiting for the framebuffer device can be disabled by setting
deviceinfo_no_framebuffer=true in the deviceinfo.
Copy Mediatek /emmc@partitionname symlinks to the chroot. This is
needed on Mediatek devices because the fstab file references the
partitions using those symlinks (which the kernel creates - for
whatever reason - in the root directory) and otherwise we don't know
which partition is which.
We used to put a "compiler-gcc6.h" file inside every vendor kernel's
aport. This is redundant and only works with GCC6. With this patch,
a common "compiler-gcc.h" file will be used, that works independently
of the GCC version.
The file is from Decatf's android_kernel_samsung_p4 repository, where
it was taken from upstream Linux, but adjusted to work with older
vendor kernels (different #ifndef check at the top etc).
bd0772df21/include/linux/compiler-gcc.h
I thought only having specific symlinks was enough, and it was for one
kernel. However, to make sure it works with all kernels, let's just add
symlinks for all the binutils.
* remove everything that causes conflicts when installing gcc6 and
gcc6-armhf side by side
* fix up the existing "if cross compiling" code path to use the
/usr/gcc6 prefix
* link binutils binaries to the locations they are expected to be
by gcc (this took me hours to figure out....) as well as by the
linux build system with CROSS_COMPILE
* link all gcc binaries to /usr/bin/gcc6-*
Based on the last version from Alpine, but installed to /usr/gcc6 and
with pretty much everything disabled except for the C compiler.
We can probably throw out a lot of patches, and make the APKBUILD much
smaller. But let's focus on making it possible to compile old kernels
again first. There's still a lot to do for that, see #103.
* Added linux-postmarketos-allwinner kernel
* Added copy of alpines u-boot package with pine-a64lts support
* Changed postmarketos-mkinitfs to add the plain .dtb file to the boot partition
Weston does not build for x86, because it depends on libunwind. And
libunwind is not available in Alpine for x86. I've also tried to
simply enable x86 in libunwind, but it does not build out of the box.
In order to start building again for x86 at all, let's disable weston
and all packages that depend on it on for now.
When cross compiling, the kernel scripts would be in the native arch
again. That was already fixed in !1234, however the mime type of the
binaries has changed, so we couldn't detect them properly anymore
(#1659).
This commit fixes it again, and also adds a checks so this won't
silently fail in the future.
[skip ci] because this would not run through anyway (building these
packages takes too long). Fixes#1659.
Follow-up to !1373, where `pmbootstrap flasher flash_system` was
replaced with `pmbootstrap flasher flash_rootfs`. We still had used
terms like "system partition" in a lot of places.
This commit replaces it everywhere, so it's clear that we're talking
about the pmOS rootfs (which may or may not be installed to Android's
system partition).
* Travis and Coveralls badges
* aports: instead of <https://github.com/postmarketOS>, use
<https://postmarketos.org>
* References to full URLs to issues and pull requests replaced with
a hash and the number
* grsec check: simplify error message, remove link to github issue
(nobody is using that anymore anyway)
While this feature is nifty, it doesn't really work with most mobile
wireless drivers. Wireless drivers decide to go in "weird" state when
the mac address changes at runtime.
I remember talking to someone in IRC about this and getting it disabled.
not sure how this ended up here.
See: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1681513
This option is not working with most of the wireless drivers normally.
For example e.g it doesn't really play nice with one of my laptop's
wireless driver.
Alpine ships `mkbootimg` with the `android-tools` package now. This
conflicts with the `mkbootimg` fork from osm0sis (see #441).
Changes:
* Rename `mkbootimg` to `mkbootimg-osm0sis` (aport and binary name)
* `mkbootimg-osm0sis`: provides `mkbootimg` now (so we don't need to
change all the device aports), update version to 2018.05.10
* Adjust our `mkinitfs` script to call `mkbootimg-osm0sis`
* Better aport description
* pkgrel_bump testcase: don't fail on deleted aport
* change "pmbootstrap kconfig_check" to "pmbootstrap kconfig check"
* change "pmbootstrap menuconfig" to "pmbootstrap kconfig edit [-x|-g]"
(with legacy alias, because the first syntax was referenced to a lot)
* enable X11 interfaces: -x: xconfig, -g: gconfig
* new function to copy the xauthority file:
pmb.chroot.other.copy_xauthority()
* remove menufconfig() function from the kernel template and all kernel
aports ([skip ci] because it would rebuild all kernels and run out of
time). Alpine has dropped this as well, and it wouldn't work with the
new code anyway.
Plasma Mobile uses the telepathy-ofono through telepathy,
telepathy-ofono was developed by canonical for ubuntu touch and it is
also used by dialer-app of ubports.
telepathy-ofono is alternative to telepathy-ring.
This is basically too old stuff from meego times, and is added only
because telepathy-ofono needs it for now, I will talk with ubports
people to get telepathy-ofono ported to libqofono so we can dump this 6
year old unmaintained library.
(patches to make it build with qt5 and modern compiler are taken from
ubuntu packaging)
This was done for testing locally and is not needed for any
functionality, it managed to slip into the initial qcom kernel package,
but it is not needed.
Upstream suggests to keep remoteproc drivers as modules given they
require the firmware files to be present when they are probed, instead
of putting required firmware files in initramfs due to size
restrictions. We make these drivers modules and load them from
userspace.
Changes:
* device-samsung-klte with both downstream and mainline kernel
subpackages
* linux-postmarketos-qcom updated to last commit
What works in mainline kernel:
* internal SD card
* volume and home key buttons
* usb network
This makes weston build again on x86_64. (It still won't build for
armhf and aarch64, because Alpine's mesa binary package is currently
stuck there, I'll look into that as well.) Detailed fixes:
1. New makedepends needed, because mesa-libwayland-egl does not exist
anymore (see Alpine's aports commits 257a236 and 4f8b36b):
wayland-libs-egl wayland-dev
This fixes configure errors:
checking for EGL_TESTS... no
configure: error: Package requirements (egl glesv2 wayland-client wayland-egl) were not met:
Package 'wayland-client', required by 'virtual:world', not found
Package 'wayland-egl', required by 'virtual:world', not found
2. Disable RDP backend, because Weston source is incompatible with
freerdp 2.0.0. This avoids compilation errors like this one:
libweston/compositor-rdp.c:193:5: error: 'SURFACE_BITS_COMMAND {aka struct _SURFACE_BITS_COMMAND}' has no member named 'bpp';
* linux-postmarketos-qcom: Remove composite USB gadget
* linux-postmarketos-qcom: Fix usb networking
- Enable functionfs so we're able to actually configure the USB
networking
- Enable the USB serial console for convenience, although not enabled by
default pre-composed configuration
Moved from aports/main to aports/luna, so we can disable the entire
folder from building in the binary repository:
* qt5-qtwebengine
* postmarketos-ui-luna
The `msm-fb-refresher` updates the screen for msm based devices. It is
not needed for all devices, so we had some extra code in the initramfs,
that would only add it when the `deviceinfo_msm_refresher` variable was
set. However, we are able now to add files to initramfs hooks, so this
hack can be removed and simplify everything.
Changes:
* Remove `deviceinfo_msm_refresher` from all deviceinfos
* Add sanity check for it
* Move all `deviceinfo` sanity checks to an extra function
* `postmarketos-mkinitfs`: remove code for msm refresher
* `msm-fb-refresher`: add initramfs hook
The postmarketos-base package used to make the user part of the "video"
and "audio" groups. However, this did not work reliably, and we were
adding the "wheel" group in "pmbootstrap install" anyway.
Now all groups get added in "pmbootstrap install", and the names of the
groups have been moved to `pmb.config.install_user_groups`.
This package is currently broken in Alpine's binary packages for
the testing repository, and their build bot is stuck with another
package. In turn, this makes our package building for the repo get
stuck, as we can't build device-nokia-n900 (and it stops there).
See also: #1408
* As discussed in IRC/matrix, we're removing `linux-postmarketos-lts`
for now. The kernel isn't used right now, and we save lots of
maintenance effort with not updating it every week or so.
* new config option `"kernel"` with possible values:
`"downstream", "mainline", "stable"` (downstream is always
`linux-$devicename`)
* ask for the kernel during `pmbootstrap init` if the device package
has kernel subpackages and install it in `_install.py`
* postmarketos-mkinitfs: display note instead of exit with error when
the `deviceinfo_dtb` file is missing (because we expect it to be
missing for downstream kernels)
* device-sony-amami:
* add kernel subpackages for downstream, mainline
* set `deviceinfo_dtb`
* device-qemu-amd64: add kernel subpackages for stable, lts, mainline
* test cases and test data for new functions
* test case that checks all aports for right usage of the feature:
* don't mix specifying kernels in depends *and* subpackages
* 1 kernel in depends is maximum
* kernel subpackages must have a valid name
* Test if devices packages reference at least one kernel
* Remove `_build_device_depends_note()` which informs the user that
`--ignore-depends` can be used with device packages to avoid building
the kernel. The idea was to make the transition easier after a change
we did months ago, and now the kernel doesn't always get built before
building the device package so it's not relevant anymore.
* pmb/chroot/other.py:
* Add autoinstall=True to kernel_flavors_installed(). When the flag
is set, the function makes sure that at least one kernel for the
device is installed.
* Remove kernel_flavor_autodetect() function, wherever it was used,
it has been replaced with kernel_flavors_installed()[0].
* pmb.helpers.frontend.py: remove code to install at least one kernel,
kernel_flavors_installed() takes care of that now.
This environnment variables provides better integration and themeing to
various components and is inline with what reference Plasma Mobile
images is doing

* Qualcomm MSM modem: 'rmtfs' support packages
* qcom_rmtfs: Server that talks to modem over IPC to allow it
read/write data for its persistent storage. This is needed for it to
boot, as well as periodically during usage. Added a patch that
it expects the storage path symlinks in /etc instead of /boot.
* qrtr: IPC library for rmtfs
* libqipcrtr4msmipc: adapter library to make qrtr work on kernels with
AF_MSM_IPC support. AF_QIPCRTR is the mainline equivalent since Linux
~4.7.
* msmipc-dev: Header files for qrtr and libqipcrtr4msmipc.
Thanks to Bjorn Andersson <https://github.com/andersson> for rmtfs and
qrtr.
* libsmdpkt_wrapper: adapter lib for QMI clients
The SMD serial packet driver in Qualcomm kernels has, AFAICT, a bug
in poll(); this works around it so that qmicli et al can work.
* i9195: firmware (modem only right now)
* add ofono (with patch for MSM devices)
Based on Alpine's package.
* i9195: add modem support
* move all modem related packages to aports/modem
* Add charging-sdl package
* Include charging-sdl into the initramfs-extra
* [initramfs] Detect charging mode and use triggerhappy to start
charging-sdl when the power key is pressed
Since it works for linux-postmarketos-stable, I've simply copied over
the config, and ran "pmbootstrap menuconfig" on it again. Then it
worked again in Qemu.
* Add NetworkManager and PulseAudio applets to Plasma
* This crashes plasma mobile on armhf (where it is not usable due
to performance problems anyway), except on mainlined kernels
with hardware accelerated graphics. This is mentioned in the
pkgdesc of postmarketos-ui-plasma-mobile now.
When building device packages, the postmarketos-mkinitfs package gets
installed as dependency of postmarketos-base. It must not try to
create an initramfs at this point, when there is not deviceinfo file.
We build the initramfs during the installation, so it's fine.
Added [skip ci] because linux kernels and KDE updates are currently
getting built for the binary repository (so Travis couldn't finish
anyway).
* device-*: add postmarketos-base to depends
* aportgen: add postmarketos-base to depends
* Add test case
* postmarketos-base: Don't depend on devicepkg
* msm-fb-refresher: Enable service in post-install
* gp-peak: Add support for osk-sdl
* gp-peak: Move non-kernel files to device-gp-peak
* gp-peak: Add audio support
Manually trigger the udev rules for audio devices and add the default user to the audio group
* Added a ui package for i3wm
* Added n900 specific i3wm config
* Fixed mixed tabs and spaces in i3status.
This is also the first commit made on an n900
running postmarketOS.
* Removed redundant X11
* Use lock.sh to lock the device
* Windows management improvements
* bump pkgver
* Fix device-nokia-n900 checksums
* Fixed path in the i3wm split package
* New "pmbootstrap build --src=/local/source/path hello-world" syntax
* The local source path gets mounted inside the chroot
* From there, a copy of the source code gets created with rsync (so
we can write into the source folder if necessary, for better
compatibility with all kinds of APKBUILDs)
* After the aport gets copied into the chroot before building (as
usually), we extend the APKBUILD with overrides to make it use
mountpoint's source instead of downloading the package's source
from the web as usually
* The package built with the local source gets _pYYYYMMDDHHMMSS
appended to the pkgver
* linux-postmarketos-mainline: use $builddir, fix patch checksum
Binary packages are rebuilding. If your kernel is not rebuilt yet, and
you don't want to build it yourself, just checkout the previous
pmbootstrap commit.
This commit also changes the arch from the postmarketOS kernels from
"all" to the ones where we actually have a kernel config.
Fixes#1229.
We have two methods of cross-compiling:
* native: everything runs with the host architecture, QEMU is not
involved. This is the fastest, but requires the build system to be
working with it. We use this for all linux-* packages currently.
* distcc: everything runs through QEMU emulating the target arch,
*except* for the compiler. This is the most compatible approach
working with all packages.
When compiling `linux-*` packages natively, kernel scripts needed
during the build process get generated. Some of these are C files that
get compiled as executables. In native mode, these get compied to the
native architecture, in distcc mode to the target architecture.
The problem is, that we need these scripts compiled for the target
architecture in the kernel's dev package in order to compile kernel
modules outside of the kernel's package (e.g. wireguard).
It is not possible to just rewrite this logic to generate target-arch
binaries when running in native mode, because these binaries require
musl-dev, linux-headers and some other packages to be installed for the
target architecture inside the native chroot.
We solve this by introducing a new `kernel-scripts` package. which
contains just the binary scripts. In case the dev package was
cross-compiled, it depends on `kernel-scripts` and symlinks these
binaries. The `kernel-scripts` package always gets compiled in distcc
mode since it does not have a `linux-` prefix.
Fixes#1230.
Fixes#1227.
This also updates the hash in linux-postmarketos-mainline, because the
hash changed upstream (they updated their git version server-side?).
Closes#441. Adjust bootimg_analyze code:
* Install mkbootimg (which now provides unpackbootimg) instead of
unpackbootimg. In theory, pmbootstrap should recognize this
automatically, however right now it does not yet handle this case.
* The file names of the extracted files have changed.
* Automatically generate a calibration matrix for libinput
This takes the calibration matrix for wayland and divides the pixel
offsets by the device width/height.
* Bump pkgrels of devices using devicepkg-dev
This causes new packages to be generated, using the new devicepkg-dev
version.
