[Buildroot] 2009.02-rc2 released

[Peter Korsgaard]

Hi,

Another week, another release candidate. I have released
buildroot-2009.02-rc2:

http://buildroot.uclibc.org/downloads/buildroot-2009.02-rc2.tar.gz

or

http://buildroot.uclibc.org/downloads/buildroot-2009.02-rc2.tar.bz2

Please give it a spin and report back issues to the mailing list or
the bug tracker.

I think we're pretty well on track to do a final release in 2 weeks.

Hi,

Compilation problem for me :

tar jxvf buildroot-2009.02-rc2.tar.bz2
cd buildroot-2009.02-rc2
make menuconfig + Exit + Save
make at91sam9260dfc_defconfig
make

-> I answer N at all questions
-> I answer 3 for the memory type question (Nand flash 2KB page and 
128KB block)

After 2 or 3 minutes :

Its a problem on my laptop ?

That one seems to have BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE enabled.

And your host doesn't seem to have the en_US.UTF-8 locale which seems
to be a requirement for this.

I don't know the finer details about the locale generation in uclibc,
and if en_US.UTF-8 really should be required, for that you better ask
the uclibc list.

Hi Peter,

I disabled BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE :

tar jxvf buildroot-2009.02-rc2.tar.bz2
cd buildroot-2009.02-rc2
make menuconfig + Exit + Save
make at91sam9260dfc_defconfig

Edit .config and disable BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE

make

--> I answer the default proposition at all questions, except for memory 
type question, I answer 3

This time there is no setlocale() error, but after a while, I have an 
error on the module-init-tools-3.2.2 compilation :

    /usr/bin/gcc -DPACKAGE_NAME=\"\" -DPACKAGE_TARNAME=\"\"

What can be the problem this time ?

Noone has put a lot of effort into supporting the
"generic" ARM so there is no linux configuration file available.

You have obviously selected Advanced Kernel configuration, and for
that you need Qt installed, or you have to select
to use "menuconfig" in the setup instead of "xconfig"

Try doing 

make at91sam9260dfc_defconfig
make

THis will have a linux config file which you can modify later.

- or select the "normal" kernel configuration.
That means you first have to extract the kernel outside
Buildroot and generate a .config file
which you supply as a configuration item to Buildroot.

I don't quite see how such a config would make sense in the first
place. ARM is far from as homogeneous as i386.

Ulf, several people (myself included) told you to default to menuconfig
for the kernel stuff, I'm surprised that's still not the case.

If you want a simple configuration, then you don't use
the "Advanced configuration for Linux"

The advanced configuration is a selectable option.
so is the make menuconfig.
I prefer default

I wrote the Advanced configuration so that I can 
work with Linux in a manner that is flexible.

What should possible be done is to fallback to menuconfig if this fails

You want to minimize the options for the user, so I suggest
that you write a new way of configuring Linux
so you can do it the way You want.

You have NO business changing the board defaults.

But we're not talking about what YOU prefer. We're talking about what
is a sensible default. I think we can all agree that if we have a
choice between 2 functionally equivalent options where option 1 always
works and the other requires X and QT3 headers, then the decission is
easily made.

But why? Just use menuconfig and be done with it. What does xconfig
bring you that menuconfig doesn't?

Sigh. Ulf, you really need to learn to work with the rest of the BR

Now it works, regardless if you have X or not.
so we and the user do not have to choose.

If X is available you have a better experience.

Ease of use - ?menuconfig is archaic
I would prefer to use Xconfig for Buildroot as well.

If people have valid issues, then I listen,
My main problem is that not only does people want to 
to it in a certain way, they also want to ensure
that it is not possible to do it in another way.

If you want to ensure that Buildroot does not crash
when people select to use make *-config, then that is 
a valid concern.

If you want to ensure that Buildroot users 
are coreced into using menuconfig, then I think it is not.

If you want to ensure that people has to spend tons of time, 
updating the config file to fit their desires
every time they download the trunk, again, I am against that.

IMO, the submitted solution should meet all valid concerns.

I should just point out that my build system is a Gentoo64 server via 
SSH, my desktop is usually Windows. I'd much prefer to use X myself but 
don't relay have a choice.

As a newbie here I tend to need as much help as I can get! When the 
build crashed and complained about QT missing I thought I'd accidentally 
added some X package into buildroot, it was only after a few hours of 
doing step by step builds that I figured out it must have been running 
xconfig rather than menuconfig. Once I disabled the kernel it compiled 
first go, which is still a lot further than I got when I first tried 
buildroot a few months ago!

Keep up the good work guys!

Exactly. We've heard from other people using a similar setup.

Menuconfig obviously works as we use it in buildroot, so that's the
safe choice for kernel config as well.

Is someone has a successfull compilation for ARM platform and at91sam9260 !?
On my side, I made a lot of tests, and I can't be able to successfully 
generate the rootfs.

For example :

tar jxvf buildroot-2009.02-rc2.tar.bz2.bz
cd buildroot-2009.02-rc2
make menuconfig +exit +save
make at91sam9260dfc_defconfig

I answer the default answer to all questions
I edit the .config the disable the BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE option (if I don't 
do that I have an error during uclibc compilation)

make

toolchain and uclibc compilation are OK, but after a while I have this 
error :

My needs are relatively simple, I need a jffs2 rootfs for my board with 
Bash + Boa + PHP + Sqlite + wireless tools.

So I try another solution :

tar jxvf buildroot-2009.02-rc2.tar.bz2.bz
make menuconfig, change target to ARM, exit and save
make

It works !

make menuconfig, I add Sqlite, exit and save
make

It works !

make menuconfig, I add PHP, exit and save
make, there is an error php-5.2.8.tar.bz2 is not downloaded, I download 
it manually and put it in the dl directory
make

I have an error :

ext/pdo_sqlite/sqlite/src/os_unix.o: In function `sqlite3UnixDlclose':

So I try another thing, from the beginning :

tar jxvf buildroot-2009.02-rc2.tar.bz2.bz
make menuconfig, change target to ARM, exit and save
make

It works !

make menuconfig, in target filesystem option, I add JFFS2 root 
filesystem, I change memory type to Nand flash 2kB page and 128KB block, 
exit and save
make

defaulting on xconfig is so wrong in so many ways 
I'm sure noone else wants it.

Please stop it.

We've mentioned several times that xconfig isn't necessarily a better
experience (E.G. it's inconsistent with BR and the busybox/uclibc
-menuconfig targets, unusable on slow links and pops up in another
window, effectively blocking the build without output until the user
figures that out, ..)

The default needs to be menuconfig like it was before.

With that mindset you probably think the entire concept of BR is
arhaic ;)

Ulf, I think you need to read
http://udrepper.livejournal.com/7326.html and then think about the
costs involved with adding configuration options (for the developers
AND for the users).

That's a known issue. We don't (yet) build a host version of glib, so
you need to have the the glib development package (something like
libglib2.0-dev) installed.

I'll fix the tree to atleast give you a clearer error message if you
don't have a host glib-genmarshal.

Hi,

Sorry for the noise guys... (ssh'd into the wrong test box.. didn't have 
libglib2.0-dev installed..)

Currently rebuilding the avr32 targets... (I have ngw100's and stk1000's 
I can test here..)

Regards,

No problem, we should fix the host-glib issue sooner or later. I
checked in a test for it in r25057.

Great.

I've tested my custom Axis etrax LX100 based board (cris arch-v10 CPU) and
buildroot 2009.02-rc2 builds toolchain and kernel wo problem.
I have minor fixes for 2.6.28.1 kernel and 4.3.2 gcc regarding cris
architecture (please apply):

 - 999-gcc-4.3.0-cris-pragma-pack-warning-remove.patch
   remove warnings when compiling gcc-4.3.2
 - linux-2.6.28.1-cris-eth-driver-netpoll.patch
   make cris eth driver compile on 2.6.28.1 kernel
 - linux-2.6.28.1-cris-klist-warnings.patch
   avoid klist warnings at bootup related to alignment of the klist struct (from be 2.6.28 stable)
