Hi

As I've created a thread earlier last week, I've got a working image for Pine64+ with complete mainline support:


Features
Kernel 4.14 branch, few extra patches (ethernet DTB revert and few others)
U-Boot 2017.09 branch, no external patches
NO boot0! Uses U-Boot SPL
Updates via normal debian packages for kernel (metapackage linux-image-pine64 keeps up2date kernels), no u-boot automated updates yet
Docker 17.09 branch or newer (installable via Debian package docker-ce) with Overlay2 full support
Debian Stretch with Systemd
Boot log: https://github.com/CallMeFoxie/pine64-ma...ootlog.txt

Tested on 2GB Pine64+, should work on 1GB version as well, unsure about 512MB version. Definitely would need to swap DTBs around.

Docker and Kernel are hosted on my repo (https://repo.foxiehost.eu/debian stretch main) and its key is imported to the image.
Boots via U-Boot through extlinux.conf -> ext2 partition with vmlinuz-* + fdt file -> ext4 rootfs (default 4GB, can be resized).
Kernel updates trigger extlinux.conf generator, normal kernel rules apply (keep last 2 and mark the other for removal etc).

Source configs and scripts to build the images:

(uses Docker to compile kernel/uboot/atf)


Known issues for latest base image:
SSH keys are not re-generated! It is suggested to delete them and ssh-keygen -t them on the first bootup. (Fixed in github already)
Fixed clock (~900MHz), no cpufreq/voltage regulation - missing kernel modules in upstream (as of 4.13.0-rc5)
No HDMI output (missing drivers)


Default config:
IP: 10.0.0.199/24, gw 10.0.0.138
SSH enabled:
Login: user pine, password pine; use sudo to get root

Fix known issues Tongue

Thank You for taking the time to put this together. I'll be sure to check it out when I get time Smile
.. kinda forgot to mention that there is no Mali driver so HDMI out will not be working (or shouldn't, I honestly have not tried). SSH or console is the only way to manage it.
Updates to latest kernel (4.13.0-rc7) and docker-ce (17.07-rc4) are on APT, just do apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade, reboot and you're done Smile
Hello,



I'm trying to reproduce your work of re-creating the base image.



So far:

Burned the base image to sd card, booted the Pine64 (I have the 2GB version)

Doing everything on the Pine64

Installed some packages like make, locales, git

Ran the build-docker-engine.sh script and managed to create .deb packages for 





Code:
pine@pine64-unknown:~/repos/pine64-mainline-project$ ls -lah output/output/                                            
total 18M
drwxr-xr-x 2 pine pine 4.0K Aug 29 10:36 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 pine pine 4.0K Aug 29 10:36 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 pine pine  18M Aug 29 10:36 docker-ce_17.07.0~ce~rc4-0~debian_arm64.deb

I then installed the docker-ce by sudo dpkg -i docker-ce_17.07.0~ce~rc4-0~debian_arm64.deb

Then I proceeded to run the busybox script:

Code:
pine@pine64-unknown:~/repos/pine64-mainline-project$ sudo ./build-busybox.sh
Unable to find image 'aarch64-builder:latest' locally
docker: Error response from daemon: pull access denied for aarch64-builder, repository does not exist or may require 'docker login'.
See 'docker run --help'.

It seems that i should build first the aarch64-builder container so i did:
Code:
pine@pine64-unknown:~/repos/pine64-mainline-project/docker$ sudo docker build aarch64-builder/
Sending build context to Docker daemon  2.048kB
Step 1/2 : FROM debian:stretch
---> a20fd0d59cf1
Step 2/2 : RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y bc gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu device-tree-compiler git ca-certificates build-essential libc6-dev-arm64-cross wget fakeroot --no-install-recommends && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
---> Running in c51e833e1d07

The command '/bin/sh -c apt-get update && apt-get install -y bc gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu device-tree-compiler git ca-certificates build-essential libc6-dev-arm64-cross wget fakeroot --no-install-recommends && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*' returned a non-zero code: 1

Where am I doing wrong?

It would help if you put a readme for noobs on github.

Cezar
Code:
~/repos/pine64-mainline-project/docker/aarch64-builder # docker build -t aarch64-builder .

The aarch64-builder is used on a host machine (x86_64), the debianConfusedtretch image is targetted at this arch, not arm64 Smile You'd have to use alternate base image.

Code:
root@pine64-unknown:~/pine64-mainline-project# docker run -ti aarch64/debian:stretch uname -a
Linux 0f0d6ed373eb 4.13.0-rc7 #1 SMP Mon Aug 28 16:07:44 UTC 2017 aarch64 GNU/Linux
root@pine64-unknown:~/pine64-mainline-project# docker run -ti debian:stretch uname -a
standard_init_linux.go:187: exec user process caused "exec format error"
So they've deleted emac from dts and compat listing from the emac Tongue so had to revert a few commits for 4.13 final.

Also I've thrown in some PMIC drivers (that have not made it upstream completely just yet) and SRAM C as well.

Will publish the kernel tomorrow/during the weekend and then will see if I can get cpufreq with vdd scaling and possibly at least some basic HDMI output.
I've borrowed Icenowy's (thank you very much!) 4.13 branch kernels and updated it to 4.13.6. There's a lot of new drivers in and some are in the works from what I've been watching mailing lists (cpufreq most notably, but we're missing temperature atm anyways).

I'll see if I can get HDMI to work (with Mali? ;o) and post it hopefully this weekend with updated rootfs with U-Boot v2017.09 (latest stable) and whatever packages will be stable by then and other fixes.

Of course you don't need to reflash, normal apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade will roll out newer kernel for you when it is ready Smile - only U-Boot won't autoupdate (will need to get initrd to work there for safety, just as for auto-resizing of SD card on the first boot).

I am currently looking for an image that does LCD on the Pine64 or SoPine/ Pine64-LTS and has mali. If by any chance you'd get that working please do let me know.
I do not have the LCD to test so cannot test really.

Running into some issues with the Mixer driver not getting reset line for whatever reason Sad
