Hi all! Found something interesting (perhaps).
So we where thinking about enabling some of the OE QA tests that that are part of poky. Seemed pretty straight forward. Added following to local.conf: INHERIT += "testimage" Build my image and then tried to run: bitbake -c testimage <image name> To my despair it did not work and instead produced an error. Tried both on "pyro" and "rocko" branches. The error was: | runqemu started, pid is 45087 | NOTE: runqemu started, pid is 45087 | waiting at most 60 seconds for qemu pid | NOTE: waiting at most 60 seconds for qemu pid | runqemu exited with code 1 | NOTE: runqemu exited with code 1 | Output from runqemu: | runqemu - ERROR - Unknown path arg <masked>/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86-64/genivi-dev-platform-qemux86-64.ext4 | runqemu - ERROR - Try 'runqemu help' on how to use it Some (a lot) digging later, I finally figured out that error occurs because the image name does not contain "-image" or "image-". runqemu is not able to parse it and throws a "unknown" argument error (not that obvious from the print). I realize that this is a "problem" in runqemu and not much to do about it with a large refactoring job on the runqemu application. But I am looking for suggesting for an appropriate workaround, other then renaming the image which I have verified works. Does it say somewhere in the docs that all image files must contain "-image" or "image-" in their name? If that is the case it makes sense to rename it, but trying to avoid that. -- Med Vänliga Hälsningar / Best Regards Mirza Krak email: mi...@mkrak.org web: https://mkrak.org -- _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
