In order to have hardware acceleration in osk-sdl, we have included mesa
for some devices (like the PinePhone) in initfs-extra. Mesa drags in
libLLVM, which got a size increase of 27 MB in the last version. This
leads to running out of space on the boot partition:
==> initramfs: creating /boot/initramfs-postmarketos-allwinner-extra
gzip: write error: No space left on device
cpio: write error: Broken pipe
Improve the situation by not directly writing initfs-extra to /boot
(next to the old version), but to a temporary directory first. Replace
the old version with the new version afterwards (like before).
This is a rather minimal fix for this specific issue. The mkinitfs
script needs more fixing (it's one of the oldest pieces of code in
postmarketOS and could use a rewrite...), but that's out of scope for
this patch.
This patch checks if deviceinfo_bootimg_blobpack is "sign"
in that case it passes signing flag for devices that require.
Devices (tf101) that don't use signing will continue working
when passing "true" as now.
Fix failure in the osk-sdl "keyboard-font" check when there is a second
key starting with "keyboard-font" (as in osk-sdl MR 105):
==> initramfs: creating /boot/initramfs-postmarketos-allwinner-extra
ERROR: Font specified in /etc/osk.conf does not exist!
ERROR: postmarketos-mkinitfs-0.17-r0.trigger: script exited with error 1
cpio expects a newline-separated list of files from stdin by default,
and you can change that to a NULL-terminated list of files by using the
'-0' switch.
Previously we were passing a NULL-terminated list ('-print0') and using
cpio with the default setting. For some reason busybox cpio works with
that but GNU cpio doesn't like that and generates an initramfs without
any files (as it only gets "a single file").
With this change the initramfs generation works fine with both busybox
cpio and gnu cpio.
Fixes#815
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.
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.
