SK-AM62A-LP: bitbake devshell command failing

Hi Andreas,

Thanks for your reply.

I ran the make dtbs command in the root directory after running MACHINE=am62axx-evm bitbake -c devshell linux-ti-staging. But there are getting errors. Please use the information below as a guide.

Please let me know what am missing.

Hi Andreas,

I did as you advised and took the actions listed below. However, there is no build file for menuconfig to perform this, so when MACHINE=am62xx-evm bitbake -c devshell linux-ti-staging is executed, it is diverted to the path provided below.

root@MYTSW00043:~/tisdk/build/arago-tmp-external-arm-glibc/work/am62axx_evm-linux/linux-ti-staging/5.10.168+gitAUTOINC+2c23e6c538-r0b.arago5/git# ls -l
total 0
root@MYTSW00043:~/tisdk/build/arago-tmp-external-arm-glibc/work/am62axx_evm-linux/linux-ti-staging/5.10.168+gitAUTOINC+2c23e6c538-r0b.arago5/git#

# Clean TI Kernel build target
MACHINE=am62xx-evm bitbake -c clean linux-ti-staging

# Perform the bitbake 'configure' step on the TI Kernel build target to establish a baseline
# Kernel configuration that can then be used for further customization. Note that this triggers
# the default defconfig_builder.sh (a TI tool) based process to generate a Kernel config.
MACHINE=am62xx-evm bitbake -c configure linux-ti-staging

# Now enter the bitbake devshell so we can explore and work on the TI Kernel
MACHINE=am62xx-evm bitbake -c devshell linux-ti-staging

# Open the Kernel menuconfig tool. There, look for the CONFIG_LOCALVERSION setting and populate
# it with a custom test string of "defconfig-test". Then, exit the tool.
make menuconfig

# Verify the changes to the Kernel config that were made
diff $KBUILD_OUTPUT/.config.old $KBUILD_OUTPUT/.config
24c24
< CONFIG_LOCALVERSION=""
---
> CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="defconfig-test"

# Create a new 'defconfig' file based off the current Kernel config
make savedefconfig

# Verify that a new 'defconfig' file was created in the Kernel build output directory
ll $KBUILD_OUTPUT

# Copy newly created 'defconfig' into the TI Kernel recipe folder that is part of the meta-ti layer,
# overwriting the existing 'defconfig' file which is nornally used to trigger defconfig_builder.sh mechanism.
cp $KBUILD_OUTPUT/defconfig ~/tisdk/am62xx-evm/sources/meta-ti/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-ti-staging-5.10/k3

# Close the bitbake devshell
exit

# Clean TI Kernel build target once more so we can witness the build environment to be
# setup on our new custom defconfig part of the TI Kernel recipe in the next step
MACHINE=am62xx-evm bitbake -c clean linux-ti-staging

# Build the TI Kernel from scratch
MACHINE=am62xx-evm bitbake linux-ti-staging

So, could you please confirm that the methods I followed were correct?

Thanks, Manoj.

Hi Andreas,

In addition, I'd like to know why I'm now getting the issue below after performing the configuration setup again and running MACHINE=am62axx-evm bitbake -k tisdk-base-image.

Please guide me further to resolve.

This suggests the Kernel wasn't built for some reason.

# Build the TI Kernel from scratch

Did you try the exact sequence, including this ^^ step? Did this sequence/build work for you?

Regards, Andreas

Hi Andreas,

I'm going to list every step I took in the past here. And kindly inform me if the steps I took were correct or not.

The next procedures are for creating the base image.

Reference link: (https://software-dl.ti.com/processor-sdk-linux/esd/AM62AX/08_06_00_45/exports/docs/linux/Overview_Building_the_SDK.html)

git clone git.ti.com/.../oe-layersetup.git tisdk

cd tisdk
/oe-layertool-setup.sh -f configs/processor-sdk/processor-sdk-08.06.00-config.txt
cd build
. conf/setenv
export TOOLCHAIN_PATH_ARMV7=$HOME/gcc-arm-9.2-2019.12-x86_64-arm-none-linux-gnueabihf
export TOOLCHAIN_PATH_ARMV8=$HOME/gcc-arm-9.2-2019.12-x86_64-aarch64-none-linux-gnu
git clone git.ti.com/.../core-secdev-k3.git -b master
export TI_SECURE_DEV_PKG_K3=`pwd`/core-secdev-k3
MACHINE=am62axx-evm bitbake -k tisdk-base-image

So after using these above setps am able to build the image file.

And now i want to modify the configurations in device tree source file. So for that i had used the steps mentioned below. And i got error when 
executing bitbake -c devshell virtual/kernel. That was only i posted earlier.


And now,
The steps below as you mentioned used after the image file generation.

MACHINE=am62xx-evm bitbake linux-ti-staging
MACHINE=am62xx-evm bitbake -c clean linux-ti-staging
MACHINE=am62xx-evm bitbake -c configure linux-ti-staging
MACHINE=am62xx-evm bitbake -c devshell linux-ti-staging

Here after execution MACHINE=am62xx-evm bitbake -c devshell linux-ti-staging
its opening the xterm and as there is no make file for configuration.

Please guide me further.

Thanks, Manoj.

The 'configure' step done earlier should have populated a .config file at the root of the Kernel source directory. Do you see this file? If it is there you should be then able to issue a 'make menuconfig' command to configure the Kernel in a cross-compiler fashion.

I will be traveling the rest of the week, will try to find some time for this early next week if you haven't been able to figure it out yet.
