I fetched and tested OE ARMv8 images. Selected for release are:

Thanks!

we would like to focus our validation and release efforts on the lamp stack and have created a very basic test plan that we would run through for signing of that image:

I am not sure what we should do about minimal and sdk. I guess we cold do basic boot testing for the other two images if we plan to release them on the armv8 page.

Minimal just has to pass boot tests. For SDK I will add hello.c{c} for next cycle so we can do simple toolchain test.

Marcin: What type of changes did we pick up on the images since last month? I guess a newer kernel and toolchain? Anything else that we moved forward?

Kernel is the same. We use gcc-linaro 2012.11 now. We got some of our changes merged in OpenEmbedded but those do not affected images. So nearly no changes -- too many conferences in 2012.11 cycle.

Can you respin the SDK image and include a ready to run hello.c test for this month so we can do some sort of sane sign off on the images?

Just add a script called "linaro-test-oe-sdk.sh" that will run through a bunch of compiler build and runtime tests and we are happy to ahead and also sign off this image.

Once you have that included, please send instructions where to find and how to run that here, so we can work that into the OE test plan.

Right. It's good if we haven't changed much as it means we can still ramp up a perfect changelog for this release. We don't want to let OE go loose by repeating the mistakes of our other images again and having a very minimal changeset for this month is a perfect opportunity to pipeclean the right process/best practices.

So on top of the SDK test, can you please ship a howto/HOWTO_Changelog.txt file alongside the build that documents our changes done to the image for this 2012.11 release? Fathi knows the exact name requirements for that file...

Same for the basic instructions, please ship them in howto/HOWTO_INSTALL.txt etc.

I am not release manager, but if we get the images with those changes by monday and they are already boottested we can easily still land it imo.

Thanks and rock on and enjoy your weekend!

In ~2h we will have them started anyway.

Next builds will have /root/hello.c{c} files which can be compiled with gcc/g++ and run. So:

gcc hello.c -o hello ./hello g++ hello.cc -o hello ./hello

will be all needed. I added those tests to wiki.

LAMP images will have /info.php page available as well.

very cool. did u also add info how to validate the info.php?

please let soumya know about new tests so he can update the dashboard/spreadsheet.

For next month I plan to use one frozen set of OE repositories to have even less changes. I will track their changes but update our builds only when needed.

You mean http://releases.linaro.org/12.11/openembedded/aarch64 page?

yes looks cool. i used models today and found that they usually ship native 64bit LSB binaries.

is that the case for foundation too? if so lets add a bp for next month to remember to include 64 instructions to install binary tab as well.

thx ... enjoy we
