SDK installation script

[ZHala.1]

Hello,

I would like to setup environment for STM32MPU according this instruction:

https://wiki.st.com/stm32mpu/wiki/Getting_started/STM32MP1_boards/STM32MP157x-DK2/Develop_on_Arm%C2%AE_Cortex%C2%AE-A7/Install_the_SDK

so I downloaded the SDK .tar

https://www.st.com/en/embedded-software/stm32mp1dev.html#get-software/SDK-x86_64-stm32mp1-openstlinux-5.15-yocto-kirkstone-mp1-v22.06.15.tar.xz

and run the script and got an error

./st-image-weston-openstlinux-weston-stm32mp1-x86_64-toolchain-4.0.1-openstlinux-5.15-yocto-kirkstone-mp1-v22.06.15.sh 
 
Extracting SDK............................................................................................................................................................................................................................done
Setting it up...xargs: file: No such file or directory
sed: no input files
Failed to replace perl. Relocate script failed. Abort!

I run this script in docker based on ubuntu. All necessary packet installed.

FROM ubuntu:20.04

What could be a problem?

I run this script with -D (debug mode) and got:

Hello @ZHala.1​ ,

If you read again the wiki page, you can see that you have to specify the path of your working directory with the argument "-d":

 ./stm32mp1-openstlinux-5.15-yocto-kirkstone-mp1-v22.06.15/sdk/st-image-weston-openstlinux-weston-stm32mp1-x86_64-toolchain-4.0.1-openstlinux-5.15-yocto-kirkstone-mp1-v22.06.15.sh -d <working directory absolute path>/Developer-Package/SDK

Please can you try again a test like this. I think this is a problem of missing permission to create file in "/opt"

Hope it helps,

Best Regards,

Kevin

The script has default path to install if you didn't provide explicitly:

root@7c8ca4056194:/sdk/sdk# ./st-image-weston-openstlinux-weston-stm32mp1-x86_64-toolchain-4.0.1-openstlinux-5.15-yocto-kirkstone-mp1-v22.06.15.sh

Enter target directory for SDK (default: /opt/st/stm32mp1/4.0.1-openstlinux-5.15-yocto-kirkstone-mp1-v22.06.15):

But even though if I provide -d /home still get the same error

root@7c8ca4056194:/sdk/sdk# ./st-image-weston-openstlinux-weston-stm32mp1-x86_64-toolchain-4.0.1-openstlinux-5.15-yocto-kirkstone-mp1-v22.06.15.sh -d /home

You are about to install the SDK to "/home". Proceed [Y/n]? Y

Generally I can see sysroot which I suppose is installed toolchain. Script crash at

stage when it try

# replace /usr/local/oe-sdk-hardcoded-buildpath with the new prefix in all text files: configs/scripts/etc.
# replace the host perl with SDK perl.

Hello @ZHala.1​ ,

Yes, sysroot is the installed toolchain.

I tried again the SDK script on my Ubuntu 20.04 and i didn't encounter an error.

Since the error seems related to perl, can you type "apt-get remove perl" then hit tabulation tab, to see which package are installed on your Ubuntu. On mine I have:

$ apt-get remove perl
perl                   perl-base              perl-depends           perl-modules-5.30      perl-openssl-defaults

In the PC prerequisite, libarchive-zip-perl is listed : https://wiki.st.com/stm32mpu/wiki/PC_prerequisites

I currently have the version: libarchive-zip-perl is already the newest version (1.67-2).

You can maybe try again to install all the packages of the PC_prerequisites page, maybe one was forget.

Best regards,

Kevin

When I run this script on PC(virtual machine ubuntu 20.04) script works.

The difference is that I use docker based on ubuntu 20.04.

Dockerfile_a7_standalone is docker file provided below

├── Dockerfile_a7_standalone
└── store
    └── en.SDK-x86_64-stm32mp1-openstlinux-5.15-yocto-kirkstone-mp1-v22.06.15.tar.xz

Here is docker. It has all necessary packets

RUN apt-get update \
  && apt-get install --no-install-recommends -y \
    # common packet

ENV TMP_WORK=/home/tmp
RUN mkdir -p ${TMP_WORK}
COPY "store/en.SDK-x86_64-stm32mp1-openstlinux-5.15-yocto-kirkstone-mp1-v22.06.15.tar.xz" ${TMP_WORK}
WORKDIR ${TMP_WORK}
RUN tar xvf en.SDK-x86_64-stm32mp1-openstlinux-5.15-yocto-kirkstone-mp1-v22.06.15.tar.xz

When this script is run inside docker then it get an error.

It would be good to have toolchain in docker istead of regural PC because it can be used in continous integration (like Jenkins)

Hello @ZHala.1​ ,

Thanks for the explanation and yes I understand your need.

Can you make a try without "--no-install-recommends"

apt-get install -y

A dependency needed is maybe not installed due to this option.

Regards,

Kevin

[ZHala.1]

    apt-get install -y

Excellent, you are right.

Docker works as PC

Hello again @ZHala.1​ ,

Good news 🙂

The reason for the issue is in the error message: "xargs: file: No such file or directory".

That is, the file command is missing. On Ubuntu you can install file as follows:

apt install file

I assume that removing the "--no-install-recommends" option from other install commands also resulted in file being installed.
