Unable to do initial 'make' on Jelly Bean (4.3)

Question

Hi, I'm attempting to work with the RIoTboard for the first time and have run into the issue of creating a flash-able android image. I downloaded the Jelly Bean (Android 4.3) code and got the repo all initialized and synced with no issues. There were no issues with the '. build/envsetup.sh' and choosing the desired lunch item (23 - RIoTboard_6solo-eng), however the 'make -j8' continues to fail regardless of what I try. Please see the attached log from the make command. Note that I had already tried to make the images, thus the reason that the log is so short. However, the issues I am having are fully encompassed in the provided log. As can be seen, there seems to be some issue with the EthernetStateTracker.java includes. There are multiple (22) symbols that are supposed to be included that have not been found. I am also getting Error 41 in regards to a debug .jar file and I'm being told that I'm using deprecated APIs. I am running this with JDK 1.6.0_45 at the moment. I have tried the same process with both the latest JDK 1.5 and JDK 1.8 versions, to no avail. If someone has run across this and knows the solution, I would love to find the answer. My Googling has turned up absolutely nothing helpful enough to solve my problem. Again, I am simply trying to do the first make on the downloaded Android source code. I have not modified it in any way, and yet it will not build. Things I have tried: Completely commenting out EthernetStateTracker.java. Similar symbol missing errors simply occurred in other .java files Running 'make clean', 'make clean -j8', 'make update-api', 'make', etc. Creating a custom classes-full-debug.jar file in the folder where Error 41 popped up (though this might have been wrong?) Completely deleting, re-downloading, re-initializing, and re-syncing repository. Multiple versions of Java JDK. Re-download Jelly Bean code from riotboard.org (as opposed to previous link on the Riotboard Element 14 site). There are probably more that I can't remember off the top of my head Thanks, Caleb P.S. Just noticed that for some reason the log file I attached defaulted to a .zip file, so I'm also pasting the log down below in case you didn't want to have to download and unzip a file just to read the log riot_source: make -j8 ============================================ PLATFORM_VERSION_CODENAME=REL PLATFORM_VERSION=4.3 TARGET_PRODUCT=RIoTboard_6solo TARGET_BUILD_VARIANT=eng TARGET_BUILD_TYPE=release TARGET_BUILD_APPS= TARGET_ARCH=arm TARGET_ARCH_VARIANT=armv7-a-neon TARGET_CPU_VARIANT=cortex-a9 HOST_ARCH=x86 HOST_OS=linux HOST_OS_EXTRA=Linux-3.13.0-55-generic-x86_64-with-Ubuntu-12.04-precise HOST_BUILD_TYPE=release BUILD_ID=1.0.0-rc2 OUT_DIR=out ============================================ build/core/Makefile:32: warning: overriding commands for target `out/target/product/RIoTboard_6solo/system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf' build/core/base_rules.mk:520: warning: ignoring old commands for target `out/target/product/RIoTboard_6solo/system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf' build/core/Makefile:32: warning: overriding commands for target `out/target/product/RIoTboard_6solo/system/etc/permissions/android.software.live_wallpaper.xml' build/core/base_rules.mk:520: warning: ignoring old commands for target `out/target/product/RIoTboard_6solo/system/etc/permissions/android.software.live_wallpaper.xml' No private recovery resources for TARGET_DEVICE RIoTboard_6solo target Java: voip-common (out/target/common/obj/JAVA_LIBRARIES/voip-common_intermediates/classes) make -C kernel_imx -j8 uImage ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=`pwd`/prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/arm/arm-eabi-4.6/bin/arm-eabi- make[1]: Entering directory `/home/lattice/riot_source/kernel_imx' make[1]: warning: -jN forced in submake: disabling jobserver mode.

Hi Tekken Tux,

I've located a solution (though a highly imperfect one, depending on your application) and wanted to make sure you had access to it. The issue appears to be with the Ethernet modules they added in to the most recent commit of the Jelly Bean code, and you can completely disable the inclusion of the Ethernet modules by doing the following:

1. Locate the make file - build/target/product/generic_no_telephony.mk

2. Open in editor and remove the entry 'Ethernet \' from this file (it occurs within the first 50 or so lines and was the only instance of 'Ethernet' in my file. Might want to run a text search just to be sure for yourself).

Once I removed the Ethernet stuff, I was able to successfully make the solution (and get the resulting .img files in out/target/product/RIoTboard_6solo/. Unfortunately, if you are attempting to make use of the Ethernet modules, then I'm not sure this solution will be of any use to you. I was still unable to find an actual patch or solution to keep the Ethernet functionality and it appears literally impossible to get in contact with anyone at RIoTboard considering their email address bounces back emails (I've also sent a message to Embest Tech with no response).

I just got that at the end of last week and am going to attempt to flash the newly created image onto the RIoTboard this morning. If I have any further issues, I'll comment them below, but no new posts should be a good sign from me. Let me know if these steps solve your problem.

Ethernet:

Disabling Ethernet as described above worked for me, so I could compile and boot the system.

MfgTool:

Edit: did you try this one: http://riotboard.org/download/Mfg_Tool-Linux_Image.zip ?

I did not use the MfgTool or the eMMC yet, I just dd the images to SD card. This does not answer your question, but it also took me some time to find out, so I post it here, for others:

Create SD card:

http://riotboard.org/download/Android-Users-Guide.pdf

in "out/target/product/RIoTboard_6solo" run the following:

1.) create partition table on sd card:

./device/fsl/common/tools/fsl-sdcard-partition.sh /dev/sdX

2.) copy bootloader to sd card:

dd if=u-boot.bin of=/dev/sdb bs=1K skip=1 seek=1 ; sync

3.) copy all images to sd card:

dd if=boot.img of=/dev/sdX1 ; sync

dd if=recovery.img of=/dev/sdX2 ; sync

dd if=system.img of=/dev/sdX5 ; sync
