An official ArchLinux image with kernel 3.x ?

[Cure]

If you are interested to build from scratch, instruction  are at https://github.com/koliqi/imx23-olinuxino.

I've followed the steps to build my own kernel but I'm getting stuck here:
# make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- zImage modules 
...
...
...
drivers/built-in.o: In function `thread_enter':
/home/user/imx23-olinuxino/kernel/linux-stable/drivers/net/wireless/rtl8192cu/include/osdep_service.h:581: undefined reference to `daemonize'
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

My understanding of Linux isn't that great, any ideas what the error means and how I can fix it?

Thanks,
Rob

I may try to recompile without the driver for rtl8192... Note that i don't use module in the kernel as i exactly know what hardware i will use.

It should work if you explicitly checkout the 3.7.1 kernel

You can use git-cola which is a sleek and powerful git GUI to revert
any patch you've applied already or do it from the command line,
you don't have to download the kernel source again.

Code Select Expand


[chris@thinkpad linux-stable]$ git checkout v3.7.1
Note: checking out 'v3.7.1'.

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:

  git checkout -b new_branch_name

HEAD is now at cc86050... Linux 3.7.1

I applied the wifi patch to an older 3.6-rc2 kernel and it compiled successfully.  I didn't test it last night as it was getting late and I was falling asleep.  I'll post a followup later today and let everyone know if it works under the older kernel and maybe that will help wtih some of the troubleshooting.

Christian, I believe we are using the latest kernel as your line matches the steps in the instructions:
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git


Edit: didn't work under 3.6-rc2, I get the following message on bootup and no wifi adapter is found:
cat: /sys/class/net/usb0/address: No such file or directory

[Fadil Berisha]

It should work if you explicitly checkout the 3.7.1 kernel

Thank you Christian for contribution.

Let me put light what is going on. When we do clone as:

git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git 

HEAD is on latest kernel. At this moment rc2 for 3.8.
Starting with 3.8-rc1, in kernel sources is not present anymore function to define  `daemonize' used by rtl8188cu driver. I have included that function on rtl8188cu driver but is disabled because 3.7.1 doesn't need it.
There are two solutions:

1. If you have already downloaded kernel sources and want to test 3.8-rc2 open file drivers/net/wireless/rtl8192cu/os_dep/osdep_service.c and enable daemonize function.
Look for code:

Code Select Expand


#endif /* DBG_MEMORY_LEAK */

#if 0
#include <linux/mm.h>
#include <linux/slab.h>

Remove line #if 0

Find next #endif

Code Select Expand


EXPORT_SYMBOL(daemonize);
#endif

#if defined(PLATFORM_LINUX)

Remove line #endif

Save changes and follow rest of instructions. I didn't try 3.8-rc2, so please follow up.


2. Revert patches as per Christian's instructions, or if you are not familiar with git, you can get 3.7.1 sources as follow:

wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.0/linux-3.7.1.tar.bz2
tar xvjf linux-3.7.1.tar.bz2
mv linux-3.7.1 linux-stable
After this point follow instructions at https://github.com/koliqi/imx23-olinuxino.

I think, at moment is good idea to work with 3.7.1. As soon as next stable release is out, I will enable changes on rtl8188cu driver.

Thanks for pointing this out, I was able to build the 3.8-rc2 kernel without rtl8188cu already but than creating the device tree blob .dtb file has failed (some error about spi2) and switched to v3.7.1.

Downloading the BZ2 file is really a good idea for people with a slow internet connection, git: 620.49 MiB bz2: 79.8 MB.

What could be wrong?

I am running Ubuntu 64 bit.

[Christian Jann]

elftosb2 is built for the i386 architecture, you need to have the 32bit version of libstdc++ installed.

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1604953

Try installing the "g++-multilib" package. It contains non-native library versions for many standard libraries.

Thanks, this worked and I created boot stream image but it fails to boot exactly as described here:

Probably your toolchain does not support cpu arm926ej-s. Download sources and
compile --with-arch=armv5te --with-tune=arm926ej-s. If you prefer premade binaries,
download arm-none-eabi toolchain. It is proven to work with arm926ej-s.

I have two questions

1. How to prepare and partition the SD card, in general, before copying boot stream image?

2. Could you please share more detailed explanation how to "download sources and compile --with-arch=armv5te --with-tune=arm926ej-s" ?

Many thanks in advance,
srdjan

I've tried this 10 times now, and I'm not joking.  It just doesn't want to boot without errors!

Fadil can you please make a 3.7.1 raw file with WIFI + UVC support?  That's all I need, then I can stop compiling day and night and start working on my project, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.

Device Drivers > Multimedia support:
   (*) cameras/video grabbers support
      (*) media usb adaptors
         (*) usb video class
         (*) uvc input events device support

Thank you,

I have two questions

1. How to prepare and partition the SD card, in general, before copying boot stream image?

Like I've written in my blog just copy a current ARCH Linux image to the SD card:

Code Select Expand


[chris@thinkpad Downloads]$ sudo dd if=imx233_kernel_2.6_ARCH_FS_WIFI.img of=/dev/mmcblk0


I've used the one from here: https://olimex.wordpress.com/2012/12/05/imx233-olinuxino-arch-linux-image-with-rtl8188-wifi-support/, https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B-bAEPML8fwlYUUxaUtsNkZrRk0

Another image is available under http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv5/olinuxino.

But you can use nearly every image made for the OLinuXino, even a Debian image would be possible. The above image is a complete SD card image with 3 partitions, that means you don't have to partition your SD card manually, just dd the image to the card. If you are using only a rootfs (root filesystem) you will have to create at least 2 partitions, one for the kernel /dev/mmcblk0p1 and one for the rootfs /dev/mmcblk0p2 and maybe a third as swap.

2. Could you please share more detailed explanation how to "download sources and compile --with-arch=armv5te --with-tune=arm926ej-s" ?

--with-arch=armv5te --with-tune=arm926ej-s is probably defined in some Makefile, it is enought to run make but your compiler has to support the armv5te architecture.

I'm using the cross compiler from Launchpad:

https://launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded/+download

https://launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded/4.6/4.6-2012-q4-update/+download/gcc-arm-none-eabi-4_6-2012q4-20121016.tar.bz2

Extract the tarball somewhere and add the compiler to the $PATH, e.g. edit your ~/.bashrc file an add a line like this:

Code Select Expand

export PATH=$PATH:/home/chris/tools/gcc-arm-none-eabi-4_6-2012q4/bin

You may need to install some 32bit librarys when running a 64bit Linux, just run arm-none-eabi-gcc --version and see what is mssing.

I swear I checked my notes 5 times!  I guess it was a typo all along, I'm finally up and running so thank you for the help.

Greetings.

This is a great little board, and I have had success with the pre-made kernels. The applications needs UVC, wifi and a USB to Serial converter so I am trying to build my own 3.x.x.

This guide was used: https://github.com/koliqi/imx23-olinuxino, but it seems no matter what I do, I just get to:

HTLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLFC

LLLLLLLFCLJUncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.

And the that's as far as it gets.

I tried the arm-linux-gnueabi- and arm-none-eabi- compilers, and I am fairly sure the kernel command line is correct and points to the right serial power.

All of the patches apply correctly, and I am loading the SD card correctly.

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.
