Hi Guix!

Here's a patch to update u-boot to 2021.07. I've tested this by booting
a barebone image on the pinebook pro. I've also tested it on the
rockpro64 however that still requires another fix, see bug#49550 [0]
which is an existing issue.

Thanks,
Pierre

This seems fine to me, Vagrant any objections here?

Heh. Just uploaded 2021.07 to Debian last night! Been meaning to look at
updating in guix, but apparently someone beat me to it :)

Overall, sounds fine to me, with one relatively minor change...

u-boot-sifive-unmatched will need a pretty trivial patch in order to
update to 2021.07:

  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/u-boot/+bug/1937246
  https://salsa.debian.org/debian/u-boot/-/blob/debian/latest/debian/patches/riscv64/unmatched-prevent-relocating-initrd-and-fdt.patch

At least, it did when building on Debian (and apparently Ubuntu)...


live well,

Sure, I've added the patch! I don't have any HW to test sifive unmatched
support though, I did test the update on a pinebookpro and rockpro64
when originally posting this, the new patch shouldn't affect them.

That being said, while it works on pinebookpro, I still need an extra
patch on the rockpro64 in order to boot, both on master with u-boot
2021.07 :-/ (see #49550).

Were you able to confirm the issue? I see it looks like we have the same
configuration in debian and guix, CONFIG_USE_PREBOOT=y and the
"inno-usb" patch applied, mmmm

Thanks,
Pierre

I have pretty high confidence it's needed, has low risk for breaking
other u-boot platforms, and riscv64 support in guix is pretty
experimental at this point so I would say safe to go with it untested at
this point... though at some point I can test it on actual hardware if
it really is needed.

Seems like you fixed the core of that problem in another commit!

Patch looks good to me, thanks for working on it!

Thanks for the review! I've just pushed it as
eb46c6c5c81695af475f7e1e416d05e51157fe60, with a couple of tweaks to
make `guix lint' happy (the patch filename was a little too long, as
well as a line was over the column limit).

Thanks,
Pierre

It turns out I broke a few u-boot packages :-/ https://ci.guix.gnu.org/eval/70864?status=failed

u-boot-tools failing to build on aarch64 appears to be unrelated, it's
due to libical which builds just fine for me on my rockpro64. However
u-boot-vexpress, u-boot-sifive-fu540 and u-boot-qemu-riscv64-smode are
real issues. Here are a couple of patches for them, they're pretty
trivial so I'll push them soon unless anybody objects:

Great!

Oh well...

hrm... yeah, it has been a while since libical succeeded on aarch64:

  https://ci.guix.gnu.org/search?query=libical+system%3Aaarch64-linux

Might be another case where the package doesn't build on some of the
virtualized machines but builds fine on real hardware...


Appears to have built fine on bordeaux:

I suspect u-boot-vexpress should just be dropped. The hardware was
always unobtanium (e.g. you can't get it even with absurd sums of
money); the only use-case was it was a platform supported in qemu early
on, but there are better virtualization platform options these days
(e.g. virt)...

Ah, sorry, I should have caught this, as I had to do this in the Debian
packages too (but an earlier upload, so not as fresh in my
memory)...

Patch looks good to me, for what it's worth. :)

It might normally be good to make a deprecated package for the name
change, but again, since riscv64 is so experimental in guix it is
probably not worth cluttering up with niche deprecated packages like
this...

Oh I see, I was curious why it had been added, assuming somebody had
access to this board and probably still cared. If not, I agree let's
remove it!

No worries! I should have made sure to build all dependents.

SGTM!

I'll push a patch to remove the vexpress board support and the renaming
patch shortly.

Thanks,
Pierre
