Hello LAVA users and developers,
LAVA has been around and useful for a lot of people for a long time.
For some years now, the list of LAVA maintainers as been shrinking down to
2 or even 1 developer (payed by Linaro).
In order to review all the patches that the LAVA developers are pushing, we
are looking for developers that want to become maintainer.
The idea would be to delegate some part of the maintenance of LAVA
sub-systems to some developers.
If you are interested, please reach out to me in the lava-users ML,
privately or in the new LAVA discord server at https://discord.gg/4dVatqyw
Thanks for your attention.

Hello,
I am trying to connect a RISC-V VisionFive 2 device with the LAVA web
server. I do not have a PDU at the moment and I do not know which one will
be appropriate for this device setup.
The LAVA master and worker are running on the same machine, so I have
localhost set up. I added the following device dictionary for VisionFive 2.
{% extends 'jh7100-visionfive.jinja2' %}
{% set console_backend = 'serial' %}
{% set serial_port = '/dev/ttyUSB0' %}
{% set serial_baud_rate = 115200 %}
The dictionary template, which is extended for VisionFive 2, is from the
VisionFive 1 device type. As I won't be needing initramfs and other uboot
env variables, I am using visionfive 1's dictionary template just for
getting the setup to work.
Following is the VisionFive 1 dictionary template.
{% extends 'base-uboot.jinja2' %}
{% set uboot_mkimage_arch = 'riscv' %}
{% set console_device = console_device|default('ttyS0') %}
{% set baud_rate = baud_rate|default(115200) %}
{% set booti_kernel_addr = '0x84000000' %}
{% set booti_dtb_addr = '0x88000000' %}
{% set booti_ramdisk_addr = '0x88300000' %}
{% set uboot_initrd_high = '0xffffffffffffffff' %}
{% set uboot_fdt_high = '0xffffffffffffffff' %}
{% set bootloader_prompt = 'VisionFive#' %}
{% set uboot_tftp_commands = [
"tftpboot {KERNEL_ADDR} {KERNEL}",
"tftpboot {RAMDISK_ADDR} {RAMDISK}",
"tftpboot {DTB_ADDR} {DTB}"]
-%}
I was able to run a job on QEMU. But the VisionFive 2 is not detected by
the LAVA web server. The physical connection is complete because I can use
picocom on my computer to attach to the VisionFive 2 using the command sudo
picocom -b 115200 /dev/ttyUSB0. I created several job definitions just for
testing the setup but they all are just loading. The device health check is
bad. Following is the simplest job that I am trying to run and see if it
completes.
job_name: simple-uboot-test
device_type: visionfive2
priority: medium
visibility: public
timeouts:
job:
minutes: 5
actions:
- deploy:
timeout:
minutes: 1
to: u-boot
- boot:
method: bootloader
bootloader: u-boot
connection: serial
commands:
- printenv
But all the jobs are on infinite loading. This is my first time connecting
a physical device with the LAVA web server, so I would appreciate it if
someone could tell me what the issue is here.
Regards,
Ali
Hello,
I recently saw the "Call for LAVA maintainers" lava-announcement email and I am willing to help.
I am pretty active in LAVA's gitlab.
By the way, your discord link is expired. Nobody will be able to join until a new link is created.
(you can make it without expiration timer)
