Setting tags for existing devices via command line

by Tim Jaacks

Hello everyone, is there a way of setting tags for existing devices via the command line? The "lava-server manage devices update" command does not have a "--tags" parameter, as the "lava-server manage devices add" has.

Does deploy action have such as "deploy-namespace" to indicate to use previous deploy images?

by john zhang

In lava job definition, boot action can use "connection-namespace" to indicate use previous namespace's connection.Does deploy action have such as "deploy-namespace" to indicate to use previous deploy image? For example in an application scenario, it need to sequential execution two phases pipeline(deploy,boot,test), it can be solved by define two namespace in job definiton. When run it executed in serial as : phase1(namespace1) deploy->boot->test -> phase2(namespace2) deploy->boot->test. If phase2 deploy images(kernel,dtb,rootfs) are exactly same as phase2 deploy images,how to speed up phase2 deploy execution? I guess if deploy action have such as "deploy-namespace" to indicate previous deploy,then phase2 deploy process can be pass.

In job defintion file the description of the related device is only the "device_type", why is not "device"?

by john zhang

Before test job,we need to add a "device_type" .jinja2 file to directory /etc/lava-server/dispatcher-config/device-types/,and add a "device" .jinja2 file to /etc/lava-server/dispatcher-config/devices/. The "device_type" .jinja2 file defines device type(for example different hardware) ,and "device" .jinja2 file(at: /etc/lava-server/dispatcher-config/devices/) defines a concrete device. When the dispatcher submits job, a job should be submited to a concrete device.But In job defintion file,the description of the related device is only the "device_type" but no "device", why is not "device"? for example: # Your first LAVA JOB definition for arm device_type: arm job_name: arm pipeline, first job ## why not as: # Your first LAVA JOB definition for arm device: arm01 job_name: arm pipeline, first job

does LXC devices mean LXC can emulate various arm devices peripheral interfaces?

by chao yang

https://validation.linaro.org/static/docs/v2/admin-lxc-deploy.html#lxc-depl… , It say that LXC devices can run lava tests within a container without disturbing the dispatcher host. Does LXC support the arm device? Although LXC may supports to run the arm virtual machine in PC server,but how does it support the completed arm device(Including various peripheral interfaces eg ethernet,usb.. ) ? Because the test job often test various peripheral interfaces,Is LXC emulating these interfaces?

Getting tests on DUT: other solutions?

by Diego Russo

Hello, Currently I'm testing a board type which deploys OE via u-boot-ums. Before flashing the image into the device, LAVA slave modifies the image copying tests definition onto it. Once the image is modified with all the tests, this is dd'ed into the device, booted and tests will be running. This is OK so far but as soon as we enable signed images (roofs will be R/O but we will be having other R/W partitions) this won't work anymore as we are changing the image and it needs to be resigned. Moreover, this is very board specific. I'm here to investigate alternative solutions which have a more "generic" approach which also a developer (without LAVA) can run. The only assumption is that *the DUT has always wired network connectivity with the SLAVE*. The workflow I have in mind is something like: 1) I have a signed image which I deploy onto the DUT 2) Boot the DUT 3) Instruct the device to get tests from somewhere (either from the SLAVE or internet) 4) Run those tests The step I'd like to solve is 3). I was thinking something like that: * download/compile all I need on the SLAVE (it is not possible to do it on the DUT due to limited resources/libraries/tooling) * setup some sort of server http on the SLAVE in order to serve those files * wget those files onto the DUT * setup and execute the tests. The above approach should work WITHOUT LAVA as well. Basically, replace SLAVE with "developer computer" Is it something I can architect with LAVA? Does LAVA give me this flexibility?

Description of LAVA's user permissions

by Tim Jaacks

Hello everyone, is there a detailed description for all the user permissions defined by LAVA? Or where do I find them in the source code? There are lots of permissions of which I have no idea what they mean, e.g. "Can [add|change|delete] action data". How is this permission used?

bootloader-commands not waiting for prompt

by Jeremy Stashluk

The bootloader-commands step breaks into u-boot and begins to issue commands, but some commands are issued prior to receiving the prompt. I've attempted changing the boot_char_delay, but it doesn't solve the issue. I'm getting symptoms much like the ones in this thread, except I'm sending space rather than a newline, so the fix is not relevant to me. https://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/lava-users/2018-May/001069.html Jeremy Stashluk Embedded Software Engineer [cid:image002.jpg@01D45B04.B75D2A40] Geophysical Survey Systems, Inc. 40 Simon Street * Nashua, NH 03060-3075 603. 893.1109 main * 603.681.2045 direct * 603.889.3984 fax stashlukj(a)geophysical.com<mailto:stashlukj@geophysical.com> * www.geophysical.com<http://www.geophysical.com/>

Detect u-boot watchdog in Lava

by Denis HUMEAU

Dear users, I'm looking for a way to detect a possible watchdog in u-boot during a test session. It happened that on one our test platforms a watchdog was triggered, u-boot restarted, and eventually the test session started. Unless we take a look at every trace of every job, there is a big chance to leave this type of errors undetected. Do you have any idea on a possible way to handle this in Lava, maybe via device dictionary? Thanks in advance, Denis
