RDKB RPI - Containerization

...

  • T6 - Selected Youtube URL got loaded but playback of videos show macro-blocking

  • T7 - Chosen network does not get connected to. Wlan0 has no ip address and wpa_supplicant.conf is not updated

Observations:

RDKV EMU - Containerization:

  • RMFStreamer and Platform control containers are only supported

  • Due to limitation in running wifi driver inside container, current environment/image needs wifi container to be invoked manually (steps are mentioned in user manual).
  • Due to some issues faced while using xml based mounting (especially while mounting volatile directories var, nvram and wifi libraries which are created during run time by existing RDKB Architecture), some of the system binaries (non -rdkb ) are copied inside container using service/script running in host.
  • WiFi connectivity is tested only with 2.4 GHz band. 5GHz is yet to be supported.
  • Data model containerization is in progress which is not supported in latest image/environment.
  • RDKB Components CR, PSM, PandM and WiFi are containerized and others has to be supported. 
  • Enhancements is needed for working containers that includes data models for containers.
  • Webui authentication fails when connected through connected clients
