* Refactor armbian-config into install as external package
- https://github.armbian.com/configng repository is always present
- package can still be removed from the install list
Since this tool will have deeper integration with Armbian, we should probably drop possibility to remove the tool from the list.
* Enable armbian-config as extension
- `post_repo_customize_image`: runs after repos have been enabled
- `post_armbian_repo_customize_image`: same, but only if Armbian repo is enabled
- both run after apt update, so packages can be directly installed from repos
- with DEBUG=yes, allows us to see what is leftover in directory during builds
- with new cleaning in separate commit, there shouldn't be any leftovers _at all_
- with this, every u-boot build will be a full rebuild.
- still, building u-boot is pretty fast
- and it is better to be a bit slower and actually produce correct results
- incl some indicative fdt/extlinux/gpt info
- include full config and defconfig for each target
- mark the old .config file as legacy (it was always the last-target's config)
- fix: savedefconfig after build, not before (as target_map might change it)
- fix: some very old u-boots (2011, odroidc1) do not have `savedefconfig` at all, so make it optional
- fix: same for `.config` -- very old u-boots worked different (`boards.cfg`?)
- refactor `prepare_host_binfmt_qemu()` out of `prepare_host_noninteractive()` and into `rootfs/qemu-static.sh`
- further split into more functions and return early to avoid deep nesting
- implement force import and load of qemu-arm for non-armhf capable arm64 hosts (incl magic numbers)
- enhance `deploy_qemu_binary_to_chroot()` & `undeploy_qemu_binary_from_chroot()`;
- add 2nd param "caller" for better logging/tracking
- does sanity-check and preserve existing binary if it exists
- explicitly deploy/undeploy for the 3 cases:
- image: moved undeploy from `post_debootstrap_tweaks()` into image build proper for consistency
- rootfs: was leaving trash behind (since post_debootstrap_tweaks never ran for rootfs), now properly undeploys
- initrd: was already fine, just added caller info
- added `arch-test` host dependency
- ensure `arch-test ${ARCH}` works during prepare-host
- > tl,dr: "can build 32-bit armv7 armhf using Apple silicon; can use rootfs cache cross-arch reliably"
- this affects `rewrite-kernel-config` and `kernel-config` CLIs
- this does not actually change the .config's we have, that will happen later / gradually as configs are rewritten
- no more `.defconfig` files are produced (they were in gitignore)
In order for the cleanup to be correct for tools, we need to pass
the VMLINUX_BTF variable, which contains the real path to the vmlinux
file we just compiled.
The vmlinux file itself is not involved in cleaning,
but the Makefile checks for its presence and cleaning
is aborted if it is not found.
armbian-config uses debconf-apt-progress which is part of debconf.
libtext-iconv-perl is needed to prevent the following error, when
uninstalling a package through debconf-apt-progress:
Can't locate object method "new" via package "Text::Iconv" (perhaps you forgot to load "Text::Iconv"?) at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Encoding.pm line 65, <GEN2> line 2.
dpkg: error processing package nfs-common (--configure):
- we've some smelly stuff in write_uboot_platform for some families that we'd rather catch early
- implement small syntax fixes in setup_write_uboot_platform
* Add a list of BASH shell aliases and merge them with ohmyZSH aliases
* Add command armbian-upgrade to the BSP which executes update + upgrade
* Display armbian-upgrade only if there are upgrades
* Generate empty folder where will store data. This doesn't exists at early start
* Move armbian-install to /usr/bin and autoexecute sudo
- https://tracker.debian.org/news/1579223/software-properties-removed-from-testing/
- that provides add-apt-repository, but we don't use that on Debian, hopefully
- move also cpufrequtils hack (which requires release) to specific function after userspace checks and when DISTRIBUTION is set
- `software-properties-gtk` if of course also gone, so remove that for desktop's sake
The kernel option `CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS_NONE` was superseded by `CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS` in 6.12.
Adapt the kernel compilation script accordingly to force the correct kernel option.

- Fixes: 71296430fa -- which only set `SKIP_ARMBIAN_REPO=yes` when `rootfs` cli shortcut used
- GHA artifact pipelines are generic across all artifacts, and don't use the cli shortcuts
- instead, they use the `artifact` shortcut, with the `WHAT=rootfs` parameter
- so in GHA pipelines `SKIP_ARMBIAN_REPO=yes` was not taking effect
- rootfs artifact itself now enforces `SKIP_ARMBIAN_REPO` to be `yes` and makes it readonly
- also add `SKIP_ARMBIAN_REPO` to the general change-tracking for more clarity about configs and hooks etc
- add change tracking calls before/after generic artifact config adapter for even more clarity
Framework stores our base-files in rootfs cache with version that comes from trunk and when we make stable images for current or previous release, build fails with error E: Packages were downgraded and -y was used without --allow-downgrades.
* tools: shellfmt: Beautify and add board configs to formatting list
* Format the whole code using `lib/tools/shellfmt.sh`

This temporary workaround was only needed for tinkerboard and xt-q8l-v10 version 2022.04 U-Boot. The version has since bumped to 2024.07 and builds fine without this.
- both artifacts use functions in the bsp/utils-bsp.sh file, which wasn't being hashed
- bsp-cli hashed non-existent 'packages/bsp-cli' directory, remove
- bsp-cli: be verbose when rsync'ing `packages/bsp/common`
- force sync in a few strategic spots
- utils-bsp.sh: be verbose when copying files (incl `config/optional` stuff)
- this avoids trouble building certain older versions with binman
- as it tries to `os.path.join(os.getenv('HOME'), 'bin')` and gets a `None` and dies
- naming names: `tinkerboard` & `xt-q8l-v10` (BOARDFAMILY=rockchip), which _actually use_ binman & 22.04 combo
- otherwise:
```
fsck.ext4 -a -C0 /dev/mmcblk0p1
/dev/mmcblk0p1 has unsupported feature(s): FEATURE_C12
e2fsck: Get a newer version of e2fsck!
```
- `orphan_file` can only be disabled on recent-enough e2fsprogs, thus check version and compare
Instead of having to add every new release to the list that does not support python2, inverse this if statement and only check if the build host is Debian bullseye or ubuntu jammy. Every release newer than those do not have python2. Older build hosts are unsupported.
Different build hosts have vastly different versions of setuptools and pyelftools depending on the host OS, e.g. Ubuntu 22.04 has setuptools v59 while the latest version at the time of this commit is setuptools v71.
Using Pip instead of APT to download these packages assures that all build hosts use the same version, removing some points of failures and inconsistencies.
Validates the dts/dtb file for the selected board and outputs the validation logs to the user.
This can be used when adding a new board, developing or improving a dts file. Should lead to higher quality device trees and patches overall, if used.
Will show warnings/errors if patches patch in some functionalities to a devicetree file without patching in the dt-bindings .yaml at the same time.
