* add hook to allow customizing before kernel make env creation
* Hook runs in docker_cli_prepare_launch() just before DOCKER_EXTRA_ARGS
is processed, allowing extensions to add Docker arguments with a more
descriptive hook name than add_host_dependencies.
* Extension: ccache-remote
Enables ccache with remote Redis storage for sharing compilation cache across build hosts.
Features:
- Auto-discovery via Avahi/mDNS (ccache.local hostname)
- Explicit Redis server configuration via CCACHE_REMOTE_STORAGE
- Build statistics display at end of build (hit/miss/error rates)
- Support for both Docker and native builds
- Hooks for kernel and u-boot compilation environments
Documentation includes server setup instructions with security warnings,
client mDNS configuration, and cache sharing requirements.
* uboot: fix ccache environment and add extension hook
U-Boot build uses `env -i` which clears all environment variables.
CCACHE_DIR and CCACHE_TEMPDIR were not explicitly passed to make,
unlike kernel build (kernel-make.sh). This caused ccache to use
default directory instead of configured Armbian one, breaking
cache statistics and shared cache functionality.
Changes:
- Add CCACHE_DIR and CCACHE_TEMPDIR to uboot_make_envs
- Add uboot_make_config hook for extensions (similar to kernel_make_config),
allowing modification of environment variables before compilation
* add long list of allowed ccache-related env vars
* set permissions to ccache files RW for everyone if cache not private
* ccache: add ccache_post_compilation hook for extensions
* ccache-remote: use ccache_post_compilation hook instead of cleanup handler
Show remote ccache stats after each compilation (kernel, uboot) via hook,
instead of once at the end via cleanup handler. Stats now shown even on
build failure.
* ccache: show stats with safe arithmetic
* ccache/uboot: improve code comments per review feedback
- uboot.sh: clarify ARMBIAN=foe workaround for dual-compiler scenario
- ccache-remote.sh: document that CCACHE_REDIS_CONNECT_TIMEOUT must be
set before extension loads
* ccache-remote: mask storage URLs in logs
Mask CCACHE_REMOTE_STORAGE when emitting Docker env debug logs.
* ccache-remote: extract ccache_inject_envs() helper to deduplicate passthrough loops
Extract ccache_inject_envs() helper to deduplicate identical passthrough
loops in kernel and uboot make config hooks.
ccache-remote: rename functions to follow project naming conventions
Rename get_redis_stats and mask_storage_url to ccache_get_redis_stats
and ccache_mask_storage_url to follow project naming conventions.
ccache-remote: mask credentials in debug log output for passthrough loops
Mask CCACHE_REMOTE_STORAGE value through ccache_mask_storage_url() before
logging in both Docker env and make env passthrough loops to avoid leaking
credentials into build logs.
* ccache-remote: add HTTP/WebDAV backend and DNS discovery
* ccache-remote: move extension script into directory layout
* ccache-remote: add server setup docs and config files
* ccache-remote: validate Redis credentials in URLs
* ccache-remote: document Redis auth options and safe passwords
Add separate insecure config example for trusted networks.
Recommend URL-safe hex passwords and update setup docs.
* ccache-remote: improve Docker loopback handling and IPv6 host parsing
Add extension that enables CONFIG_RUST in kernel menuconfig and
configures the build environment (rustc, rustfmt, bindgen, rust-src)
using versioned APT packages from noble-security/noble-updates.
Handles env -i in run_kernel_make_internal by passing tool paths
via RUSTC, RUSTFMT, BINDGEN make params and RUST_LIB_SRC env var.
Includes optional RUST_KERNEL_SAMPLES=yes for building sample
Rust modules (rust_minimal, rust_print, rust_driver_faux) as a
toolchain smoke test.
Tested: kernel 6.19 build for rockchip64 on aarch64, both with
and without Docker.

Add opt-in extension that includes gcc/clang major.minor version in the
kernel artifact version string for cache invalidation when the toolchain
changes. Enable with ENABLE_EXTENSIONS="kernel-version-toolchain".

apt-daily-upgrade.service uses `apt-helper wait-online` as an ExecStartPre
step. On multi-NIC systems with systemd-networkd this helper directly calls
systemd-networkd-wait-online in strict mode, waiting for all managed links
to become online.
On boards with multiple Ethernet ports where some interfaces are commonly
unplugged, this results in repeated timeouts and causes
apt-daily-upgrade / unattended-upgrades to abort, even when at least one
interface is already fully routable.
Replace the ExecStartPre step with a direct invocation of
systemd-networkd-wait-online using `--any`, allowing the service to proceed
as soon as one interface is online.
This preserves the intent of waiting for network availability while making
the behavior robust on multi-NIC and router-style systems.
Multi-port boards (e.g. NanoPi R6S) frequently have unused interfaces with
no-carrier. With the default systemd-networkd-wait-online behavior this can
result in "Online state: partial" and a timeout while waiting for all managed
links to become online.
That failure breaks units that depend on network-online.target such as
apt-daily-upgrade / unattended-upgrades.
Install a systemd drop-in overriding ExecStart to use:
systemd-networkd-wait-online --any --timeout=20
This keeps the intended "wait for networking" semantics while preventing
unplugged/unused ports from blocking boot and timers.
Add extension that enables 32-bit compat vDSO for arm64 kernels.
Without vDSO, 32-bit applications using gettimeofday() syscall heavily
suffer significant performance penalty on arm64 systems.
The extension:
- Adds gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi as build dependency
- Sets CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT for kernel make
- Enables CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO in kernel config
Enable with: ENABLE_EXTENSIONS=arm64-compat-vdso

- similar to `rkdevflash`, but for Mediatek devices
- also simpler; lk.bin & fip.img are produced by image build and directly used
- requires Rust+Cargo, so add those to hostdeps
- since this is a core extension, those will be included in all Docker images too
- which was bound to happen anyway since Rust in Linux Kernel is no longer an experiment
- extensions/mtkflash: sha1-based bin path, use fork & add `--no-erase-boot1`
- example invocation:
- `BOARD=radxa-nio-12l BRANCH=collabora RELEASE=trixie EXT=ufs,mtkflash MTKFLASH_TTYACM_DEVICE=1`
Ubuntu 25.04+ replaced GNU coreutils with uutils coreutils, a Rust-based
reimplementation of Unix core utilities. These are different projects
with the same package name:
- GNU coreutils 9.x (C) - Ubuntu ≤24.04
- uutils coreutils 0.x (Rust) - Ubuntu ≥25.04
The uutils comm doesn't recognize sort output as sorted, causing
"comm: file is not in sorted order" errors.
Replace comm patterns with:
- grep -vxFf for set difference (lines in B but not in A)
- sort | uniq -d for finding duplicates
These alternatives don't depend on comm, ensuring compatibility
with both GNU and uutils coreutils.
- otherwise it is lost in a temp dir that is cleaned before the end of run
- same place as the `sample-extension.sh`
- keep in mind original limitations of this still apply:
- only extension methods _actually used_ by the specific run are included
- thus, it will _never_ be complete
- that was for my never-upstreamed cloud-init extension
- "/boot/efi" can't be used for cloud seed anymore since trixe
- as it's not going to be mounted by the time cloud-init runs
The upstream driver in radxa-pkg/aic8800 builds successfully against Linux 6.17. Relax the version guard so we only skip installing the aic8800 DKMS package on kernels >= 6.18.
