如何用Xilinx Petalinux SDK解决“Bitbake源码失败”

Question

我正在运行带有Xilinx Petalinux 2018.03 SDK的Ubuntu16.04。经过多次成功的编译之后，我现在遇到了这个错误

$ petalinux-build
[INFO] building project
[INFO] sourcing bitbake
ERROR: Failed to source bitbake
ERROR: Failed to build project

我该如何解决这个问题？

Answer 1

首先，您需要进一步调查错误，执行以下操作：

source /opt/pkg/petalinux/2018.3/settings.sh

它将返回类似以下内容的内容：

PetaLinux environment set to '/opt/pkg/petalinux/2018.3'
INFO: Checking free disk space
INFO: Checking installed tools
INFO: Checking installed development libraries
INFO: Checking network and other services

获取环境设置：

source /opt/pkg/petalinux/2018.3/components/yocto/source/aarch64/environment-setup-aarch64-xilinx-linux

然后是：

devtool --help

在我的例子中，我可以看到有关实际错误的更多信息：

OSError: Cannot initialize new instance of inotify, **Errno=Too many open files (EMFILE)**

这指向需要增加的/proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_instance。在我的例子中，通过这样做，我从128变成了256：

sudo su 
echo 256 > /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_instances

您需要使用"su“成为超级用户并更改mac_user_instances。

出现错误"ERROR: Failed to source bitbake“和"ERROR: Failed to build project”的另一个原因是可能是在构建机器上升级了Python。Petalinux SDK需要2018.3版的python v2 (>= 2.7.3)。

您可以在您的_PROJECT/build/build.log下查看，您可能会看到如下所示的日志：

[INFO] building project
[INFO] sourcing bitbake
SDK environment now set up; additionally you may now run devtool to perform development tasks.
Run devtool --help for further details.
OpenEmbedded requires 'python' to be python v2 (>= 2.7.3), not python v3.
Please set up python v2 as your default 'python' interpreter.
ERROR: Failed to source bitbake
ERROR: Failed to build project

要解决此问题，请删除/usr/bin下的符号链接，并确保创建一个指向Python 2.7的新链接：

sudo rm /usr/bin/python
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python2.7 /usr/bin/python
