I believe your issue is that LAVA doesn't detect your U-boot prompt correctly and does not try to issue any commands. Meanwhile, your kernel is autobooting and at line 541 of your pastebin, LAVA gives up waiting for a U-boot prompt.

You may need to tweak your u-boot prompt settings and/or uboot interrupt sequence. I am not sure if LAVA is doing substring matching of the interrupt-prompt, so "Press SPACE to abort autoboot" _may_ not match a line that reads "Press SPACE to abort autoboot 10 seconds". But I'll leave that to the LAVA devs to answer.

BTW, you should avoid making copies of base-uboot.jinja2. Instead you can override these things from your device type config, for example to override the interrupt-string you can do:

{% set interrupt_prompt = 'Press SPACE to abort autoboot 10 seconds' %}

and it will override the default value specified in base-uboot.jinja2. Same goes for your TFTP commands,

{% set uboot_tftp_bootcmd = '- your list of uboot commands here as a yaml-list'  %}

Some additional data to the use case from the initial email. I have
changed /etc/lava-server/dispatcher-config/device-types/base-uboot.jinja2
(changed u-boot massge before prompt, since I am using U-Boot 2017.12,
and also hard-coded SERVER_IP since I have two networks inside VM -
one public - 10.0.2.0/24, second private - 192.168.15.0/24).

Hello,

I have very interesting problem: I would like to do Lava testing of
BBB01, but I am not suceeding.

Simple and plain, my U-Boot scripts gets somehow rejected, they are
not executed.

I do download correctly, I have all the correct ingredients in place,
but the U-Boot scripts are not activated, at the time of U-boot
prompt.

Here is my output, from the testing:
https://pastebin.com/hTQQSLU1

Rather, the thing gets executed from SDCard (from /boot on rootfs).

I have no idea why this is not executed.

Help appreciated!

Thank you,
Zoran
