  • Patches:

    • Separate patch files for the open-source OE layers are no longer maintained. Instead, mirrors of the OE layers used by RDK are maintained at CMF, containing rdk branches that contain the patches already applied. The RDK build scripts and recipes now all use these instead of the previous patches.

Build System

  • Reference platform build testing performed with podManager enabled.
  • All builds (emulator and reference platforms) now use rdk-oe (Yocto).
  • The old build_framework system is no longer supported.
  • rdk/components/generic/injectedbundle cannot be built by the community because of a dependency on AVE.


Root Filesystem uncompressed image size

  • XG1v3 229560 (KiB)
  • XI3v2 219204 (KiB)


Getting the code

Note: The manifests repository is only available to RDK licensees.

$ mkdir rdkv
$ cd rdkv
$ repo init -u https://code.rdkcentral.com/r/manifests -m rdkv.xml -b rdkv-20180226
$ repo sync -j4 --no-clone-bundle
  • The -m rdkv.xml in the build sequence above is important. If this is not specified, you will get an RDK-V tree by default.
  • The -b rdkv-20180226 in the build sequence above specifies the branch to use.
  • If you omit the -b rdkv-20180226 entirely, you will get the master (HEAD) of each component.
  • At any time, the community can build latest master by dropping the -b rdkv-20180226 option in the repo init command.


Building for the emulator

$ source meta-cmf/setup-environment

Select the option number for the required build (Hybrid: qemux86hyb; Media Client: qemux86mc).

Initiate the build using either of the following commands, depending on the desired device:

$ bitbake rdk-generic-hybrid-image or
$ bitbake rdk-generic-mediaclient-image

Upon a successful build, the rootfs (in vmdk format) is available at:

$ {HOME}/emulator/build-qemux86hyb/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86hyb or
$ {HOME}/emulator/build-qemux86mc/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86mc


Building for RaspberryPi MediaClient

$ mkdir <workspace dir>
$ cd <workspace dir>
$ repo init -u https://code.rdkcentral.com/r/manifests -m rdkv.xml -b rdkv-20180226-rpi
$ repo sync -j4 --no-clone-bundle
$ source meta-cmf-raspberrypi/setup-environment

Select option raspberrypi-rdk-mc.conf

$ bitbake rdk-generic-mediaclient-wpe-image

Note. The kernel Image and root filesystem will be created under the ./tmp/deploy/images/raspberrypi-rdk-mc folder


Building for RaspberryPi Hybrid

$ mkdir <workspace dir>
$ cd <workspace dir>
$ repo init -u https://code.rdkcentral.com/r/manifests -m rdkv.xml -b rdkv-20180226-rpi
$ repo sync -j4 --no-clone-bundle
$ source meta-cmf-raspberrypi/setup-environment

Select option raspberrypi-rdk-hybrid.conf

$ bitbake rdk-generic-hybrid-wpe-image

Note. The kernel Image and root filesystem will be created under the ./tmp/deploy/images/raspberrypi-rdk-hybrid folder

RaspberryPi Sanity Testing

Sanity tests include:

  • Playing video from YouTube using WPELauncher.
  • Playing video from local source using gst-play.
  • Streaming from hybrid to media client using rmfApp.


Known Issues

TDK M53 or later must be used to test this release as prior versions of TDK Manager are not compatible with the TDK Agent in this release due to a recent change in the TDK JSON RPC version

Emulators:

  • TDK-346 RDK-V CMF Emulators xcal-device service and xdiscovery not running
    • Causes most XUPNP tests to fail, issue (which is a work around procedure) is marked as resolved but the underlying issue won't be addressed until dependency on POD manager issue is removed
    • The output.json file created by this service is required for a number of the E2E tests, we have worked around this by creating the /opt/output.json file on hybrid and media client as follows:
      {"playbackUrl": "http://<hybrid IP>:8080/hnStreamStart?deviceId=<hybrid mac address>&DTCP1HOST=<hybrid IP>&DTCP1PORT=5000"}
e.g. {"playbackUrl": "http://192.168.21.234:8080/hnStreamStart?deviceId=08:bb:83:b3:b3:07&DTCP1HOST=192.168.21.234&DTCP1PORT=5000"}
  • TDK-292 RDKV Emulator-HYB recorder failures
    • requires DVR Simulator (refer to TDK-277)
  • TDK-380 RDKV Emulator "No such file or directory:" retrieving recordDetails.txt
  • TDK-381 RDKV Emulator RMF_HNSrc_MPSink GetMediaTime() Failures
  • TDK-448 RDKV EMU Hybrid E2E and RMF Failures
  • TDK-577 RDKV EMU SM Test Failures

RPI:

  • TDK-451 RDKV RPI Most E2E TSB Tests Failing
  • TDK-561 RDKV RPI-V TDK test causes device corruption
  • REFPLTV-2 Duration of the recorded content is not as expected on RPI Hybrid
  • REFPLTV-11 Contribute playersinkbin implementation with westerossink

Platforms:

  • RDK-283 Absence of POD in CMF image blocks RMF system level functionality
    • xcal device service doesn't start, so /opt/output.json file required by E2E tests not created we have worked around this by creating the tmp/ip_acquired file, with this workaround we can run TDK E2E tests
  • TDK-277 Testing of Recorder component will remain blocked until DVR Simulator code is available
  • TDK-276 Subset of Recorder tests still consistently failing for CMF
  • TDK-387 RDKV Platform XG1V3 XUPNP Event not received by xcal-device process
  • TDK-388 RDKV Platform XG1V3 RMF MPSink Set Volume Errors
  • TDK-389 RDKV Platform E2E Tests Failures "HNSource play failed current state not playing"
  • TDK-523 RDKV Platform All DTCP Xi3v2 Tests Failing
  • TDK-525 RDKV Platform All TRM xg1v3 Tests Failing
  • No labels
