Dear lava-users,
I'm intern at /e/ foundation and working on using LAVA to test our OS updates. We are trying to configure our system in order to use the recent feature allowing the use of docker instead of LXC containers. On this point we are grateful to the developpers for adding this possibility because we were having problems with LXC.
Now we are having issues because we can't flash our OS through fastboot, we have to use adb sideload with .zip archives. By the way, we can't do it through the classic deploy section. We came with the idea of just flashing a twrp recovery partition via the deploy section using fastboot, and then trying to run shell commands in the test section to be able to use adb sideload and install our ROM.
For the moment as you can see in the job we didn't add all the shell commands because we already have some problems with this simple try. The objective would be to pass this booting into recovery step and then try to continue with adb sideload. I've also joined the logs and the device and device type dictionaries. I would like to have your opinion and advices on what we are trying to achieve.
Best regards,
Baptiste and the /e/ team
Hello everyone,
I would like to integrate the u-boot tests suite (pytest) in lava. ( https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot/tree/master/test/py)
We are now executing the test suite manually, using a host machine and the DUT.
The u-boot tests suite is installed on a host computer and the DUT is "stopped" in uboot environment.
The host computer execute the "u-boot pytest" framework, commands are sent to the DUT and tests results are collected to the host computer.
It is a "semi automatic" tests and I would like to do a full automation using LAVA.
I plan to use multinode jobs, one job instances for the DUT and another one for the remote host computer.
So, I would like to know if such tests have already been craeted in LAVA, and if someone could give me advice on this tests implementation.
My Lava version is: 2020.06
Best regards

Hello,
We are wanting to update to a more recent LAVA docker release, we've been at 2019.12 since it was released. Our configuration relies on lxc, and after moving to 2020.01 all of our test jobs hit the error "lxc container 'lxc-test-17071' already exists" very early on (17071 is the test job number). I've pasted our device configuration, test job, and log output in the below pastebin. What should we do to keep our LAVA jobs working with the 2020.01 release and beyond?

Thanks,
Alex

Hi,
For imx armv7 series board, tee is default not built in, there is a separate file there to play the role.
I'm not sure for next scenario, if LAVA could handle it with "method: u-boot commands: nfs"? Could you give some guide?
setenv autoload no
setenv initrd_high 0xffffffff
setenv fdt_high 0xffffffff
dhcp
setenv serverip 10.192.244.84
tftp 0x12000000 trial/zImage-imx6qsabresd.bin
tftp 0x18000000 trial/zImage-imx6q-sabresd.dtb
tftp 0x20000000 trial/uTee-6qsdb
tftp 0x12C00000 trial/ramdisk.cpio.gz.uboot
bootm 0x20000000 0x12C00000 0x18000000
If not, if you have buffer to add the support? Or we can submit a MR for review?
Thanks Antonio for the clarify.
A side question:
For docker test shell, if possible add more docker options for user? E.g. bind mount, etc.
A scenario is:
If we have some code needed when test, currently, we could just inject it into docker image when do docker build, or when test git clone the code from network.
You know docker test shell use `--rm`, means every time, we need to git clone it, or if a small changes we need to build the image.
A bind mount there to mount our code may make things easier for us?

Yes, you are right. The way the docker test shell currently works won't support such a use case.
First, there was an issue with the udev rules being too strict, which was recently fixed and will be in the next release:

This issue that you mention also needs to be fixed; I created an issue to track and I will work on it:

Hello Lava-Users,
For minimal boot setup should the dispatcher with which target is configured should have apache server setup configuration ?Having the Lava server version of 2019.11.
When trying to pull test suites from the dispatcher with overlay mechanism facing http not found error during job execution.
--2020-06-24 14:50:07-- http://xx.xx.xx.31/tmp/21866/compress-overlay-mmk3i76o/overlay-1.4.2.4.tar.…
Connecting to xx.xx.xx.31:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 404 Not Found
Also needed suggestion on
Presently trying with the multi deploy mechanism where in 1st deploy boot test method we boot with nfs boot and wget the latest wic image and write that image to hard disk as test case.
In the scenario of writing of Image fails how should we exit from job execution without going to 2nd deploy boot test
Thanks,
Hemanth.
Hello,
Situation with running Docker containers inside the official
Docker-based LAVA setup
(https://git.lavasoftware.org/lava/pkg/docker-compose) was already
discussed at least once recently.
LAVA starts to offer more and more convenient usages of Docker
containers to extend its functionality (e.g.
https://connect.linaro.org/resources/ltd20/ltd20-304/), and people
start to leverage it. For docker-compose based setup, that effectively
means running Docker containers inside the docker-compose, and that
currently doesn't work.
Another reason for raising this matter again are the apparent plans to
migrate components of the production LAVA setup as run by Linaro
(https://validation.linaro.org/) to Docker-based setup. The concern is
that if Docker-in-Docker scenario is not explicitly accounted and
planned for, then there will be a regression due to this switchover.
So, I posted
https://git.lavasoftware.org/lava/pkg/docker-compose/-/issues/7 with
more detailed discussion, and would be ready to follow up with a patch
(we just need to decide what kind of patch, please the proposed
options there).

Hi,
What is the procedure to follow in order to upgrade LAVA to a new release
while preserving the test results database? I am using the docker-based
setup.
I tried
>
> sudo tar cvzf lava-server-pgdata-backup.tgz
> /var/lib/docker/volumes/lava-server-pgdata
> <wipe away old LAVA, rebase to latest>
> sudo tar xvzf lava-server-pgdata-backup.tgz -C
> /var/lib/docker/volumes/lava-server-pgdata
But the old results don't seem to show up in the UI after the upgrade. Also
the user accounts, settings, etc. are gone, and it'd have been nice to keep
them.
Thanks,
Vincent
