Getting the code
$ mkdir rdkb
$ cd rdkb
$ repo init -u https://code.rdkcentral.com/r/manifests -m rdkb.xml -b rdkb-2017q2
$ repo sync -j4 --no-clone-bundle
- The
-m rdkb.xml
in the build sequence above is important. If this is not specified, you will get an RDK-V tree by default. - The
-b rdkb-2017q2
in the build sequence above specifies the branch to use. If you omit the -b rdkb-2017q2
entirely, you will get the master (HEAD) of each component. - At any time, the community can build latest master by dropping the
-b rdkb-2017q2
option in the repo init command. - We have verified that this iteration boots to a login prompt and that you can log in, and that you can connect with a web browser to the web admin page.
Building the emulator
$ source meta-cmf-rdkb-bsp-emulator/setup-environment (select qemux86broadband)
$ bitbake rdk-generic-broadband-image
The image path will be: build-qemux86broadband/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86broadband/rdk-generic-broadband-image-qemux86broadband.vmdk
To build TDK, follow the steps as for a normal build, above, but use the following bitbake command:
$ bitbake rdk-generic-broadband-tdk-image
The image path will be: build-qemux86broadband/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86broadband/rdk-generic-broadband-tdk-image-qemux86broadband.vmdk
TDK for RDK-B documentation is available: https://wiki.rdkcentral.com//display/TDK/TDK+Release+M48
Running the emulator
- Start VirtualBox.
- Click
New
-> Enter name -> Select type Linux
-> Select version Other Linux (32 bit)
-> Click Next
- Select
Memory size - 512MB
-> Click Next
- Select option
Use an existing virtual hard drive
-> Select the built image above -> Click Create
- Once the VM has been created, select the new image and click
Settings
-> Network
-> Select Attached to: 'Bridged Adapter'
-> Click Ok
- Click
Start
.This will bring up the emulator with the initial splash screen
Building for RaspberryPi
$ mkdir <workspace dir>
$ cd <workspace dir>
$ repo init –u https://code.rdkcentral.com/r/manifests -m rdkb.xml –b rdkb-2017q2-rpi
$ repo sync -j4 --no-clone-bundle
$ source meta-cmf-raspberrypi/setup-environment
Select option raspberrypi-rdk-broadband.conf
$ bitbake rdk-generic-broadband-image
Note. The kernel Image and root filesystem will be created under the ./tmp/deploy/images/raspberrypi-rdk-broadband
folder
Documentation for RDK-B for RaspberryPi is available here: https://rdkwiki.com/rdk/display/DEVTOOLS/RDK+Broadband+%28RaspberryPi%29+-Krogoth
Running on the RaspberryPi
Known Issues
General:
- TCL tests not run for RPI or Emulator, TCL scripts and script execution will be resumed once the scripts are stabilized
- Some of the TDK advanced config scripts are causing the PAM process to deadlock or crash on the RDKB Emulator
- Several issues are raised on RDBK Emulator (RDKBEMU-436, RDKBEMU-458, RDKBEMU-477)
- Some TDK TS_TAD emulator tests fail in CMF test setup due to security restrictions with test setup
TDK Issues:
- TDK-362 RDKB EMU TS_WIFIAGENT_EnableAccessPoint kills hostapd.service
- RDKBEMU-475 raised, setting Device.WiFi.SSID.1.Enable/Device.WiFi.SSID.2.Enable to true kills hostapd, reboot resolves
TDK-364 RDKB-RPI TDK TS_WIFIAGENT_AccessPointRetryLimit Fail- TDK-366 RDKB-EMU Setting Device.WiFi.Radio.1.X_CISCO_COM_ApplySetting kills hostapd.service
- TDK-367 RDKB-EMU TS_SNMP_SetSSIDEnable tests kill hostapd service
- TDK-368 RDKB-EMU Intermittent Segfault in CcspWiFiAgent.service
- observed intermittent segfault when running TS_WIFIAGENT_FactoryReset test on emulator, reboot resolves
RPI Issues:
- RPI-7 Randomly observing boot up issue in RaspberryPI broadband
- RPI-29 SSID Name of WIFI 2.4 and 5GHZ not getting reverted to default SSID Name after doing WIFI factory reset
- TS_WIFIAGENT_FactoryReset failure
- RPI-30 KeyPassPhrase of WIFI 2.4 and 5GHZ not getting reverted to default password after doing WIFI factory reset
- TS_WIFIAGENT_5GHZ_PassphraseAfterReset failure
