Building - Dasharo Universe (original) (raw)

We choose Yocto Project to prepare Dasharo Tools Suite system. DTS image can be built using publicly available sources. Thanks to publishing the build cache oncache.dasharo.com the time needed to finish the process should be significantly decreased.

Prerequisites

The following must be met to build DTS:

wget -O ~/bin/kas-container https://raw.githubusercontent.com/siemens/kas/3.0.2/kas-container

chmod +x ~/bin/kas-container

git clone https://github.com/Dasharo/meta-dts.git

Build

From yocto directory, run:

SHELL=/bin/bash kas-container build meta-dts/kas.yml

Image build takes time, so be patient, and the build's finished, you should see something similar to (tasks number may differ):

Initialising tasks: 100% |###########################################################################################| Time: 0:00:01 Sstate summary: Wanted 2 Found 0 Missed 2 Current 931 (0% match, 99% complete) NOTE: Executing Tasks NOTE: Tasks Summary: Attempted 2532 tasks of which 2524 didn't need to be rerun and all succeeded.

Using the cache is enabled in kas/cache.yml file and can be disabled by removing content of that file.

output:

`--- header: version: 11

local_conf_header: yocto-cache: | SSTATE_MIRRORS ?= "file://.* http://${LOCAL_PREMIRROR_SERVER}/${PROJECT_NAME}/sstate-cache/PATH" SOURCE_MIRROR_URL ?= "http://${LOCAL_PREMIRROR_SERVER}/${PROJECT_NAME}/downloads" INHERIT += "own-mirrors" LOCAL_PREMIRROR_SERVER ?= "cache.dasharo.com" PROJECT_NAME ?= "yocto/dts" `

Build image with UEFI Secure Boot support

From yocto directory run:

SHELL=/bin/bash kas-container build meta-dts/kas-uefi-sb.yml

Image build takes time, so be patient and after build's finish you should see something similar to (the exact tasks numbers may differ):

Initialising tasks: 100% |###########################################################################################| Time: 0:00:04 Checking sstate mirror object availability: 100% |###################################################################| Time: 0:00:03 Sstate summary: Wanted 892 Local 672 Mirrors 212 Missed 8 Current 1560 (99% match, 99% complete) NOTE: Executing Tasks NOTE: Tasks Summary: Attempted 5860 tasks of which 5841 didn't need to be rerun and all succeeded.

Image created with kas-uefi-sb.yml configuration file enable integration of UEFI Secure Boot into DTS usingmeta-secure-core. Building the image allow to prepare a PoC version with uses sample keyswhich by no mean should used in production. For user keys the scriptcreate-user-key-store.shcan be used but it was not tested yet. Quick start with instructions on how to use image are described inmeta-efi-secure-boot.

Flash

output:

(...) Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/sdx1 * 8192 131433 123242 60,2M c W95 FAT32 (LBA) /dev/sdx2 139264 186667 47404 23,2M 83 Linux

In this case the device name is /dev/sdx, but be aware, in the next steps, replace /dev/sdx with the right device name on your platform, or else you can damage your system!

cd build/tmp/deploy/images/genericx86-64

Here the file dts-base-image-genericx86-64.wic.gz should be available, which is the image of DTS. To flash image, you can use the same command shown inrunning section. Just change the file name.
