Nightly builds for DM8000 are broken since new dvb-modules?
#1
Posted 18 November 2011 - 06:34
The latest image that can be successfully flashed on DM8000 is dated 12.11.2011.
Nightly builds dated 13, 14 and 16 Nov. 2011 are broken.
I was able to flesh them via www (in dm stop mode). But on first reboot:
1. It seems ok at first, the initial message on the DM display with "/flash/vmlinux.gz" and the openpli bootlogo @ 1080i on TV.
2. After some time, the bootlogo disappears, the TV display is black, still "/flash/vmliniux.gz" on DM display.
3. After a second or two, the TV switches to 720p (still black), DM display turns black as well.
4. Nothing more happens till I turn off the DM power switch. While booting the image dated 12.11.2011, after a next second or so, the DM display shows: "Dream Multimedia" and progress bar, and there is a bootlogo @ 720p onTV.
The major update to image from 12.11 to 13.11 was the dreambox-dvb-modules update. Can it be the cause of the problems?
Note, that I can flash 12.11 image and opkg update; opkg upgrade without any problems.
Regards.

Also, do you have any autobackupped settings that are autorestored?

No serial port on my computers too, unfortunately. I will try to get one today.
Forgot to mention that I was able to flash successfully "DM official" images, both latest release and experimental.Just to check if I can flash anything new.

1. Start the DM and put it into STOP mode.
2. Flash the DM via web.
3. Press Reboot button on web page after flashing.
4. Log what happens after reboot.
The logs were generated for the nightly builds with dates: 12.11.2011 (last successful flash) and 18.11.2011 (example of failed boot).
Note, both logs are pretty the same. See the diffs here:

I assume it's one of the problems caused by the new drivers.
We've just reverted to the 20110902 version, could you try to flash todays build, and see whether that 'fixes' your problem as well?

The new drivers could be updated to latest version after successful flash of 12.Nov build. I guess that will be no such option now (new drivers removed from the image/feed totally)? I ask because I have such personal feeling that they work better than 02.09 version (nothing I can point at, just my personal feeling).
The logs of successful boot are very consistent about the error in 18.Nov boot. I mean the lines are the same, looks like no concurrency at that stage (or very well serialized console output). I mean, each and every successful boot (regular one, after deep standby) has the same line order in the cosole log.
So I put here the next 10 lines after the 18.Nov stopped logging:
usbcore: registered new driver usbserial drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial support registered for generic usbcore: registered new driver usbserial_generic drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial Driver core usbcore: registered new driver r871x_usb_drv 4042711 ms: No valid backup location, aborting auto-restore VIDEO0: set blank to 0 sync is off so we enable it playback!
Maybe it is not drivers but the extra usb driver or some change in auto-restore (when no valid backup location). I am just guessing now, please do not shoot at me . I just feel strange that the new drivers are the cause as I can update to them in console using opkg update; opkg upgrade) and can put the box to deep stanby (and switch it off) and reboot successfuly (I know I should change the thread tile somehow then).
Regards.
EDITED:
Corrected the bad image date to 18.11.

And since we downgraded the drivers again this morning, I've already had 2 confirmations from users for which thing started working again.
So I'm pretty convinced it must have been the driver update.
But they confirm what you said; online update doesn't trigger the problem. Only after you flash the image, the problems occur.
I cannot explain that, but it seems the case.
Fact remains that with the 20110902 drivers, the problem didn't occur. And no longer occurs, in todays image.

After the flash, to get the newest drivers, I downgraded the openpli version with the ipk from dreamboxupdate and set the hold flag on that package. To have it work, I had to copy the /etc/modutils/dreambox into safe place and restore after downgrading. Without that, the reboot failed.
Here are the quick steps for all that love openpli, but would like to have the newest drivers:
1. Go to dreamboxupdate site and download the newest drivers dreambox-dvb-modules_2.6.18-7.4-dm8000-20111109-r0_dm8000.ipk. Put it into /tmp folder of your dreambox.
2. Execute the code:
cp /etc/modutils/dreambox /tmp # need to preserve this, boot failure otherwise opkg install --force-downgrade /tmp/dreambox-dvb-modules_2.6.18-7.4-dm8000-20111109-r0_dm8000.ipk # returns warnings, but installs anyway opkg flag hold dreambox-dvb-modules # package will not be updated on next opkg upgrade cp /tmp/dreambox /etc/modutils/ update-modules
Once the openpli feeds have newest drivers again, just reset the flag to ok and opkg upgrade will do the rest.
One can argue, that simple copy is easier, I agree but you need a spare copy of the latest driver files (which was not my case).
Thank you for your support.
Regards.

What does work is editing opkg-status file and decrease the driver version, so upgrade thinks its allready installed (old clone trick 2 preserve the drivers dito for the shitty 84 ssl )
