@wkz pretesting Finit patches, I'll make sure to add a ChangeLog update and a better PR description tomorrow. |
The RTC in the CN913x series does not have any "valid" bit, and this board (all revs) does not have any backup power connected, so it will return garbage values after every vold boot. It was therefore decided to disable the RTC completely and set system time manually, or using an NTP client. This way any time skips would only ever be forward, never backwards.

This fixes an annoying problem with `make run` when set to boot with a qcow2 disk image. By default the disk image was recreated every time the qemu.sh script was called. Also, add image check to enforce regen if broken. Signed-off-by: Joachim Wiberg <troglobit@gmail.com>
Creating/Recreating the qcow2 image now logs to stdout, as does the check using qemu-img, which looks funny in raw mode. So let's delay the start of raw mode until just before starting qemu. Signed-off-by: Joachim Wiberg <troglobit@gmail.com>

The string variable handling in configuring Finit did not follow the
Buildroot best practises. This patch adds stripping quotes from all
string variables before adding them as configure arguments.
This fixes issue with, e.g., this sneaky bastard:
configure --with-rtc-date=""2024-10-12 12:34:56""

@mattiaswal maybe you can focus your review on the non RTC-related changes? (If you're pressed for time, that is.) |
