Fix linuxboot builds #845

NHellFire · 2020-09-26T23:50:53Z

Tested builds of qemu-linuxboot and qemu-coreboot, both succeeded with gcc 7. With gcc 8+, linuxboot will fail on edk2 (linuxboot/linuxboot#43).

tlaurion · 2020-09-28T14:06:40Z

@NHellFire Ci fails because #842 not being merged. This will need to be rebased ton top of master once merged in.

MrChromebox

wait, why is coreboot being included as a module for a Linuxboot build anyway? Seems like that's the issue that needs to be fixed

Top Makefile includes all modules (00559de, 1c64e4c). It was fine before the version check was added as it only contained variables.

tlaurion · 2020-09-29T17:29:56Z

@MrChromebox I like the fix. Rebasing on master with linixbootboarf added in CI should show the fix working.

@NHellFire can you add the board in CircleCI and rebase on master?

I've rebased (and fixed showing the error).
Currently, readding linuxboot back to CI will just fail as Debian 10 uses gcc 8.3 (linuxboot/edk2#1).

@NHellFire So if I understand well, this will work once linuxboot has your PR merged upstream, while linuxboot will not offer reproducibility since not bound to particular commit ID as other modules. Actually, it seems that linuxboot is the only module still not being bound to a commit id

EDIT: confirmed:

user@x230-master:~/heads$ grep "_version := git" modules/*
modules/coreboot:#coreboot_version := git
modules/flashrom:#flashrom_version := git
modules/linuxboot:linuxboot_version := git
modules/msrtools:#msrtools_version := git
modules/pciutils:#pciutils_version := git
modules/tpmtotp:#tpmtotp_version := git

Consequence, it will be impossible to reproduce Head's linuxboot based ROM based on a signle Head's commit ID in the future. Might need another issue and PR, or added to this PR, since linuxboot cannot be build for more then a month now (coreboot 4.8.1 version specification inside of coreboot module), and CircleCI's builds are not built since a while.

It seems that linuxboot builds are not often built for the following platforms:

Leopard OCP node: @osresearch others?
Winterfell OCP node: @osresearch others?
Intel S2600wf : @osresearch others?
r630: @osresearch others?

CI should pass now. Local build passed with gcc 9.3.0 and binutils 2.34 (Ubuntu 20.04.1).

tlaurion · 2020-10-02T19:37:48Z

@NHellFire not sure about the hack implemented in the linuxboot module to apply patches outside of the root Makefile logic.
Why are those patch not directly applied into linuxboot upstream, or for a specific linuxboot git commit as other modules?

if we look at musl-cross-make module, being dependend on a specific commit for reproducible builds in the future on a specific Heads commit being rebuild, the following module specifies what to download as opposed to downloading master which cannot be replicated in the future if master changes.

As a result for that specific musl-cross-make git version, no patch are currently applied (no patch exists for that specific module-hash), since no patches relative to that specific commit id exits (Duh. there is a past artifact for musl-cross lying around, will fix that).

Does that make sense?

In the present case, linuxboot should be fixed to commit id linuxboot/linuxboot@10be0dc into module, and your linuxboot-ed2k patches should be applyable directly inside of the decompressed archive for that specific commit ID, where the patch would be in a file patches/linuxboot-10be0dc2652e1fc8c11d419ca2c4ff93920d4165.patch or in seperate files under patches/linuxboot-https://github.com/linuxboot-10be0dc2652e1fc8c11d419ca2c4ff93920d4165/1.patch etc following root Makefile patch application rule.

@NHellFire ?

I'll see if I can get to this in the next few days. I've been away from home and a bit busy.

Ok, I get what you are doing here.
You can get the build directory by reusing Makefile included module.

In this case: $(linuxboot_base_dir)

That will break in future linuxboot version bump. Why static?

@tlaurion What do you say to making this change a separate PR and merging it in? I was about to make one addressing this before seeing this change in this PR.

@synackd please do. Same should be made under coreboot module

In hindsight, I probably could have combined #940 and #941 into one PR, though it does categorically separate the linuxboot and coreboot modules...

~~Have you tested it? The idea here is to pass CPUS to command line~~
~~make BOARD= x230 CPUS=2~~

~~There is no such invocation as CPUS as a command.~~
@synackd?
EDIT: nevermind! Tested.

These changes can be retracted since they are already merged as of #940.

Why are those patch not directly applied into linuxboot upstream, or for a specific linuxboot git commit as other modules?

@NHellFire patches are under patches/module-version and applied automatically, if modules respect module statements.
I cannot merge modules pinning to specific version. See requested changes above.
