   Important

This documentation is unofficial and not supported by Funtoo. It needs to be improved to be more straightforward as there are too many manual steps and it relies on a non-Funtoo project for setup.

Introduction

This is an extension and amplification of Funtoo_Linux_Installation_on_ARM. It attempts to systematize and automate as much as possible of steps required to get Funtoo running on the 32 bit ARM Raspberry Pi device.

Installation Overview

  1. #Create Your Installation Settings
  2. #Install the Stage 3 Tarball
  3. #Install the Firmware
  4. #Configure Your System
  5. #Install Binary Kernel, Modules and dtbs
  6. #Cross-compile Kernel, Modules and dtbs from Source
  7. #Use QEMU
  8. #Partition and Format an SDCard
  9. #Deploy Installation to SDCard
  10. #Transfer the SDCard to the Raspberry Pi and Boot
  11. #Enjoy!

Get the Bash Script

Development code is available on github. The structure of the file sysroot.sh should roughly correspond to the information contained here.

Too use the script, edit the config file and then

root # source sysroot.sh && sysroot_install


Create Your Installation Settings

Confguration your installation. These variables are referencecd by the sysroot.sh script and by this document.

   config (bash source code) - Set your install configuration variables
KERNEL_WORK=/mnt/shared/rpi_kernel
RPI_KERN_BRANCH=rpi-4.14.y

SYSROOT_WORK=/mnt/shared/sysroots
STAGE3_URL=http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/funtoo/funtoo-current/arm-32bit/raspi3/stage3-latest.tar.xz
CHOST=armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi
CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -march=armv7-a -mtune=cortex-a53 -mfpu=neon-vfpv4 -mfloat-abi=hard"

#SDCARD_DEV=mmcblk0p
SDCARD_DEV=sdb

INSTALL_VARS=(KERNEL_WORK RPI_KERN_BRANCH SYSROOT_WORK STAGE3_URL CHOST CFLAGS SDCARD_DEV)


Install the Stage 3 Tarball

Download the current Funtoo stage 3 build appropriate for your Raspberry Pi device. Check the Subarches#arm32 page, to see the version available for versions 1,2 and 3 of the Pi. Here we download the version for version 3 by setting the STAGE_URL variable in our configuration file.

We need to save the archive to $STAGE3_ARCHIVE and unpack it to $SYSROOT. Back up or remove any previous work in that local.

root # export SYSROOT=$SYSROOT_WORK/$CHOST
root # export STAGE3_ARCHIVE=/tmp/stage3-latest.tar.xz
root # mv -n $SYSROOT $SYSROOT.old
root # mkdir -p $SYSROOT
root # wget ${STAGE_URL} -O ${STAGE3_ARCHIVE}
root # tar xpfv ${STAGE3_ARCHIVE} -C ${SYSROOT}

Install the Firmware

Make your work directory and clone the official firmware repo into it. Copy the appropriate boot firmware files to the sysroot, along with the video acceleration binaries. If you want to use the wireless networking function, you need the bcrm firmware as well.

root # mkdir -p ${KERNEL_WORK}
root # git clone --depth 1 git://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/ ${KERNEL_WORK}/firmware
root # cp ${KERNEL_WORK}/firmware/boot/{bootcode.bin,fixup*.dat,start*.elf} ${SYSROOT}/boot
root # cp -r ${KERNEL_WORK}/firmware/hardfp/opt ${SYSROOT}
root # git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree ${KERNEL_WORK}/firmware-nonfree
root # git --git-dir=${KERNEL_WORK}/firmware-nonfree/.git --work-tree=${KERNEL_WORK}/firmware-nonfree pull origin
root # mkdir -p ${SYSROOT}/lib/firmware/brcm
root # cp -r ${KERNEL_WORK}/firmware-nonfree/brcm/brcmfmac43430-sdio.{bin,txt} ${SYSROOT}/lib/firmware/brcm

Configure Your System

Here, we attempt to encapsulate the instructions from Funtoo_Linux_Installation_on_ARM. There are two ways to do this. Here we alter files and symlinks in $SYSROOT/etc directly.

We could also chroot into $SYSROOT using QEMU as described below to install packages, edit files and use rc-update directly to set up services.

Set Up Mount Points

Alter $SYSROOT/etc/fstab as follows. We remove the swap (for now), and alter the storage device name and parition file types. We also remove the /dev/cdrom device.

   $SYSROOT/etc/fstab
/dev/mmcblk0p1  /boot   vfat    noauto,noatime  1 2
/dev/mmcblk0p2  /       ext4    noatime         0 1

We can use the following No results code.

root # sed -i "s/\/dev\/sda1.*/\/dev\/mmcblk0p1 \/boot vfat defaults 0 2/" ${SYSROOT}/etc/fstab
root # sed -i "s/\/dev\/sda2.*//" ${SYSROOT}/etc/fstab
root # sed -i "s/\/dev\/sda3.*/\/dev\/mmcblk0p2 \/ ext4  defaults 0 1/" ${SYSROOT}/etc/fstab
root # sed -i "s/\#\/dev\/cdrom.*//" ${SYSROOT}/etc/fstab

Set Up Root Password

Here we interactively add a root password to log in with to $SYSROOT/etc/shadow.

   Warning

Occasionally this fails due to an unescaped sed control character in the password hash. Just try it until it works, or run the password generation separately from the shadow file editing, or actually fix it.

root # sed -i "s/root\:\*/root\:`(openssl passwd -1)`/" $SYSROOT/etc/shadow

Set Up Networking

We add dhcpcd as a default runlevel service.

root # ln -sf /etc/init.d/dhcpcd ${SYSROOT}/etc/runlevels/default

Set Up SSH Access

If you want to ssh to the board as root, you need to allow it explicitly and we add sshd as a default runlevel service.

root # echo "PermitRootLogin yes" >> ${SYSROOT}/etc/ssh/sshd_config
root # ln -sf /etc/init.d/sshd ${SYSROOT}/etc/runlevels/default

Set Up the Software Clock

Let's set up the software clock. This is Raspberry Pi specific, and due to its lack of a stock RTC chipset. This has ramifications for maintaining the correct time via a pacakge like No results.

root # ln -sf /etc/init.d/swclock ${SYSROOT}/etc/runlevels/boot
root # rm ${SYSROOT}/etc/runlevels/boot/hwclock
root # mkdir -p ${SYSROOT}/lib/rc/cache
root # touch ${SYSROOT}/lib/rc/cache/shutdowntime

Disable Serial Console Access

Let's prevent serial consoles from spawning. If you have a need for this, you'll be able to set it up yourself.

root # sed -i "s/s0\:.*/\#&/" ${SYSROOT}/etc/inittab

Link to Accelerated Video Libraries

You must add /opt/vc/lib to $LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the shell, or use the env-update functionality of Funtoo if you want to link against these firmware libraries. This is critical if you want to do any accelerated graphics or gpu level work. Here we add an entry to the appropriate configuration file which env-update will pick up whenever we source /etc/profile.

root # echo "LDPATH=\"/opt/vc/lib\"" > ${SYSROOT}/etc/env.d/99vc

If you want to try building native vc4 acceleration with media-libs/mesa you must unmask the appropriate USE flags at the profile level and VIDEO_CARDS="vc4" in make.conf.

root # cat > /etc/portage/profile/portage.use.mask << EOF
root ##i##media-libs/mesa -video_cards_vc4 
root ##i##x11-libs/libdrm -video_cards_vc4
root ##i##EOF

If the file /var/log/Xorg.0.log are flooded with the same messages. The file are huge. The messages are:

(EE) modeset(0): Failed to get GBM bo for flip to new front.
(EE) modeset(0): present flip failed

Workaround: Disable PageFlip for modesetting

It is preferred to keep using "modesetting" driver, but disabling page flipping is necessary. To do this, as a root user create a file 20-displaylink.conf under /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ with the following content:

   $SYSROOT/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-displaylink.conf
Section "Device"
  Identifier "DisplayLink"
  Driver "modesetting"
  Option "PageFlip" "false"
EndSection


Configure the Boot Parameters

root # cat > ${SYSROOT}/boot/cmdline.txt << EOF
root ##i## dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 console=tty1 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline fsck.repair=yes rootwait
root ##i## EOF

Install Binary Kernel, Modules and dtbs

root # mkdir -p ${SYSROOT}/boot/overlays
root # cp ${KERNEL_WORK}/firmware/boot/dts/*.dtb ${SYSROOT}/boot/
root # cp ${KERNEL_WORK}/firmware/boot/dts/overlays/*.dtb* ${SYSROOT}/boot/overlays/
root # cp ${KERNEL_WORK}/firmware/boot/dts/overlays/README ${SYSROOT}/boot/overlays/
root # cp ${KERNEL_WORK}/firmware/boot/kernel7.img  ${SYSROOT}/boot/

Cross-compile Kernel, Modules and dtbs from Source

Install Crossdev

No results is a wonderful script for managing cross-compiling environments on Gentoo, but it is incompatible with Funtoo's improved gcc ebuilds. There is incomplete documentation of a pure Funtoo solution, but there has been no follow up on a complete implementation.

A simple solution is to create a local overlay named "crossdev", store gentoo ebuilds and patches in it, and use a crossdev command line switch to direct it to search the overlay for the appropriate ebuilds. This has the advantage of isolating all gentoo files and resulting binaries in a single directory.~

   Note

Please ensure that /etc/portage{package.keywords,package.mask,package.use} are all directories.

Make a Local Overlay

Let's follow the directions from Local_Overlay, and remove the .git subdirectory.~

root # mkdir /var/git/overlay
root # cd /var/git/overlay
root # git clone  https://github.com/funtoo/skeleton-overlay.git crossdev
root # rm -rf /var/git/overlay/crossdev/.git
root # echo "crossdev" > /var/git/overlay/crossdev/profiles/repo_name

Edit config files to match.

   /etc/portage/repos.conf/crossdev.conf - Add the crossdev overlay to portage
[crossdev]
location = /var/git/overlay/crossdev
auto-sync = no
priority = 10

Sparse Checkout Gentoo GCC Ebuilds

Let's make a sparse checkout of the main Gentoo repo.

root # cd /var/git/overlay/crossdev
root # git init
root # git remote add origin git://github.com/gentoo/gentoo.git
root # git config core.sparseCheckout true
root # echo "sys-devel/gcc" >> .git/info/sparse-checkout
root # git pull --depth=1 origin master

Unmask and Emerge Crossdev

root # echo "sys-devel/crossdev **" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords/crossdev
root # echo "=sys-devel/crossdev-99999999" >> /etc/portage/package.unmask/crossdev
root # emerge crossdev

Install Cross Compilation Tool Chain

root # crossdev -S --ov-gcc /var/git/overlay/crossdev -t ${CHOST}

Retrive Raspberry Pi Kernel Sources

root # git clone https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux.git ${KERNEL_WORK}/linux

Clean and Update Kernel Sources

root # git --git-dir=${KERNEL_WORK}/linux/.git --work-tree=${KERNEL_WORK}/linux clean -fdx
root # git --git-dir=${KERNEL_WORK}/linux/.git --work-tree=${KERNEL_WORK}/linux checkout master
root # git --git-dir=${KERNEL_WORK}/linux/.git --work-tree=${KERNEL_WORK}/linux fetch --all
root # git --git-dir=${KERNEL_WORK}/linux/.git --work-tree=${KERNEL_WORK}/linux branch -D ${RPI_KERN_BRANCH}
root # git --git-dir=${KERNEL_WORK}/linux/.git --work-tree=${KERNEL_WORK}/linux checkout ${RPI_KERN_BRANCH}

Make the Default Config

The next set of make commands take place in the kernel source directory.

root # cd ${KERNEL_WORK}/linux

There are many useful make targets to control kernel configs. In particular, the architecture specific ones are most useful in cross-compiling applications. You can see all available architecture specfic default configurations with the following command.

root # make -j$(nproc) \
root ##i## ARCH=arm \
root ##i## CROSS_COMPILE=${CHOST}- \
root ##i## make_defconfig_help 
root # Architecture specific targets (arm):

Backup Kernel Config

root # mkdir -p ${SYSROOT}/etc/kernels
root # cp -i ${KERNEL_WORK}/linux/.config ${SYSROOT}/etc/kernels

Use QEMU

No results relies upon KVM and the associated kernel module, called either kvm_intel or kvm_amd, depending on the architecture the kernel is running on. Please see KVM to find out how to get these kernel modules loaded and virtualization working.

Install a QEMU Chroot

root # echo "app-emulation/qemu static-user" > /etc/portage/package.use/qemu
root # echo "dev-libs/libpcre static-libs" >> /etc/portage/package.use/qemu
root # echo "sys-apps/attr static-libs" >> /etc/portage/package.use/qemu
root # echo "dev-libs/glib static-libs" >> /etc/portage/package.use/qemu
root # echo "sys-libs/zlib static-libs" >> /etc/portage/package.use/qemu
root # echo "QEMU_SOFTMMU_TARGETS=\"arm\"" >> /etc/portage/make.conf
root # echo "QEMU_SOFTMMU_TARGETS=\"\${QEMU_SOFTMMU_TARGETS} arm\"" >> /etc/portage/make.conf
root # echo 'QEMU_USER_TARGETS="arm"' >> /etc/portage/make.conf
root # echo 'QEMU_USER_TARGETS="${QEMU_USER_TARGETS} arm"' >> /etc/portage/make.conf
root # emerge -q app-emulation/qemu
root # quickpkg app-emulation/qemu
root # ROOT=${SYSROOT}/ emerge -q --usepkgonly --oneshot --nodeps qemu

Example: Chroot with ARM Emulation

root # source sysroot.sh && sysroot_chroot $SYSROOT_WORK/$CHOST
root # export PS1="(chroot) $PS1"
(chroot) # ego profile
=== Enabled Profiles: ===

        arch: arm-32bit
       build: current
     subarch: raspi3
      flavor: core
     mix-ins: (not set)


  NOTE: Meta-repo has not yet been cloned, so no kit information is available. Type ego sync to perform an initial
  clone of meta-repo.
(chroot) # ego sync
(chroot) # exit


Example: Run a Shell Script in the ARM Chroot

root # cat > /tmp/shell_test.sh << EOF
root ##i## #!/bin/sh
root ##i## ego profile
root ##i## EOF
root # . sysroot.sh && sysroot_run_in_chroot $SYSROOT_WORK/$CHOST /tmp/shell_test.sh
