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. -- Rémi Duraffort Principal Tech Lead LAVA Tech Lead Automation Software Team Linaro

Connect a device through serial without PDU

by Ali Tariq

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

email notifications not using correct url. issue with absolute_url?

by Michael Peddie

As the subject says, email notifications in lava aren't using the correct url when linking to a job. They use the example.com url, and even after changing the value under Sites in the admin settings, it still does. Looking at the notification template for emails, it uses the job.absolute_url, but I can't quite figure out how it constructs example.com, there shouldn't be anything anywhere that it pulls that from. Any help on this would be appreciated, even if it's just insight and not a solution.

Is there such a job test?

by 93831920＠qq.com

The device already has a Windows system and provides an SSH server, so there is no need for deployment. After LAVA establishes an SSH connection with the device, it can directly send test instructions, and exit the SSH connection after the test is completed?

Using LAVA to transfer file via Ymodem from LAVA dispatcher(HOST machine) to DUT

by hina.hafeez＠10xengineers.ai

Hi LAVA users, I have set-up a LAVA server, dispatcher and connected my device (banana-pi) board serially via UART to host machine on which dispatcher is running. I have defined a job which uses deploy "tmpfs" to download .itb file from local file server. After that, under "boot" action, i am using u-boot method to boot the device. Output: 1. deploy images section runs successfully 2. uboot action starts 3. After connecting to device using telnet, device is reset(pdu-reboot). 4. Device enters in Y modem state waiting for image to get transferred. 5. After some time, "CCC CCCCCCC[ 99.943] spl: ymodem err - Timed out" Issue/Question: 6. At this stage, i want LAVA dispatcher(HOST machine) to send .itb file over UART using Ymodem to device. 7. But LAVA is unable to execute this command "sz -Y --ymodem /uboot-opensbi.itb < /dev/ttyUSB0 > /dev/ttyUSB0" to transfer opensbi.itb file to device. 8. I need to know what am i missing in writing job definition for this case. 9. Which device template should i use and how it should be extended. 10. is there any job definition syntax to fulfill my requirement? Regards,
