# lava-worker
lava-worker is now waiting for a job to finalize before sending a second
signal to a canceling job. This will leave more time for a job to finalize
cleanly.
# lava-dispatcher actions
## Logs
Always save logs to a local file in yaml format.
The `logs.yaml` can be used for debugging or post-parsing in the same job
with a docker test shell. The log file is saved to dispatcher download
directory so that it can be retrieved via the http server using the url
`http://
${LAVA_DISPATCHER_IP}/tmp/${LAVA_DISPATCHER_PREFIX}${LAVA_JOB_ID}/logs.yaml`.
Test example:
```yaml
- test:
docker:
image: lavasoftware/lava-dispatcher:latest
definitions:
- from: inline
repository:
metadata:
format: Lava-Test Test Definition 1.0
name: Job log parsing
run:
steps:
- wget http://
${LAVA_DISPATCHER_IP}/tmp/${LAVA_DISPATCHER_PREFIX}${LAVA_JOB_ID}/logs.yaml
# Steps for additional job log parsing
- tail logs.yaml
name: job-log-parsing
path: inline/job-log-parsing.yaml
```
## Deploy
### Downloads
Add `LAVA_DISPATCHER_PREFIX` to the deploy to downloads shell environment.
### Flasher
Allow flasher deploy method to pass `uniquify` parameter for downloading
images to a flat directory.
```yaml
- deploy:
to: flasher
images:
image1:
url: https://example.com/image1
image2:
url: https://example.com/image2
uniquify: false
```
## Boot
### Bootloader custom commands
Allow to replace `LAVA_JOB_ID` and `LAVA_DISPATCHER_IP` for custom boot
commands.
### Depthcharge
Allow to override bot commands in the job definition:
```yaml
- boot:
method: depthcharge
commands:
- "exit"
```
## u-boot
Allow chain loading grub. As U-Boot nowadays has full UEFI support it is
very common that we chain load grub from U-Boot as UEFI application.
Enable to boot from u-boot into grub without resetting the board.
# lava-server
## Remote artifact tokens API
Add api to manage Remote artifact tokens via XML-RPC or REST.
## Required login
Require login in order to access to `/scheduler/reports` and
`/scheduler/joberrors` than can be long to generate.
With the current bots crawling for data, this can kill a LAVA instance.
## `lava-server manage device-types prune`
This command will delete all unused device types from the database.
To be considered unused the device type has to have no devices and no jobs
that requested it.
The extra unused device types slow down certain iterations like health
check scheduling.
You can call this command from the command line with:
```bash
lava-server manage device-types prune --dry-run
```
