Updated: May 14, 2023


This post lists the steps I took to bring up PetaLinux 2019.1 on Debian 10.3 running on VMWare Workstation 14 Player.


The log shows:


How to fix: "E: Unable to locate package" on Debian 10.3


How to fix: "E: Unable to locate package zlib1g:i386" on Debian 10.3


How to install PetaLinux Tools 2019.1 into HOME


How to fix: "/mnt/hgfs/shared/petalinux-v2019.1-final-installer.run: line 140: /tmp/tmp.D0y1BqZe6j/petalinux-env-check: No such file or directory

ERROR: Failed to extract Petalinux installer..."


How to fix: "ERROR: You are missing the following system tools required by PetaLinux: - libtool"


How to fix: "WARNING: /bin/sh is not bash!" when your shell is set to bash


How to fix: "ERROR: Failed to generate /home/demo/plxprjs/xilinx-zc706-2019.1/build/misc/config/Kconfig.syshw" after typing petalinux-build


How to fix: "[INFO] generating Kconfig for project

couldn't read file "/home/demo/plxprjs/xilinx-zc706-2019.1/build/misc/config/hw-description/hw-description.tcl": no such file or directory"


How to fix:

./xsct: line 194: 20320 Segmentation fault "$RDI_BINROOT"/unwrapped/"$RDI_PLATFORM$RDI_OPT_EXT"/rlwrap -rc -b "(){}[],+= & ^%$#@"";|\\" -f "$HDI_APPROOT"/scripts/xsct/xsdb/cmdlist -H "$LOG_FILE" "$RDI_BINROOT"/loader -exec rdi_xsct "${RDI_ARGS[@]}"

...when running xsct directly


How to fix: hang at "[INFO] generating bbappends for project . This may take time !" Note: this one is fixed by using at least 4 GB of RAM in the VM and 4 cores.


See kernel hang at: "hrtimer: interrupt took 66668558 ns" and continue...



Part A: Make Sure Packages can be Installed


Step #1: Typed: sudo apt-get install dos2unix


I saw:


Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree

Reading state information... Done

E: Unable to locate package dos2unix


Step #2: Consulted "How to Add a Package Repository to Debian" @ [link]


Step #3: Typed: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list


Step #3.1: Added this line in bold:


deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main

deb-src http://security.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main


deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian buster main contrib non-free


Step #3.2 Saved the file and exited.


Step #4: Typed: sudo apt-get update


Step #4.1: I now see:


demo@debian:~/plxprjs/xilinx-zc706-2019.1$ sudo apt-get update

Step #5: Type: sudo apt-get install dos2unix


You should now see:

Reading package lists... Done

Part B: Try to use the Packages that Xilinx Lists for Ubuntu 16.04.5 in the PetaLinux Tools Documentation Reference Guide


On page 11 of UG1144 (v2019.1) May 22, 2019 www.xilinx.com

PetaLinux Tools Documentation Reference Guide at [link] it lists the following (I've removed the -dev which looks like a typo):


sudo apt-get install -y gcc git make net-tools libncurses5-dev tftpd zlib1g-dev libssl-dev flex bison libselinux1 gnupg wget diffstat chrpath socat xterm autoconf libtool tar unzip texinfo zlib1g-dev gcc-multilib build-essential zlib1g:i386 screen pax gzip


Step #1: Typed: ^^^


Step #1.1: I saw:

E: Unable to locate package zlib1g:i386



Step #3: Typed:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install -y gcc git make net-tools libncurses5-dev tftpd zlib1g-dev libssl-dev flex bison libselinux1 gnupg wget diffstat chrpath socat xterm autoconf libtool tar unzip texinfo zlib1g-dev gcc-multilib build-essential zlib1g:i386 screen pax gzip


Step #3.1. I saw that this ^^^ worked, i.e. I was able to install zlib1g:i386



Part C: Make Sure the Shell Is BASH


Step #1: Typed: echo $SHELL


Step #1.1: I saw:

/bin/bash



Part D: Install PetaLinux Tools 2019.1 into $HOME


Step #1: Typed

mkdir -p $HOME/petalinux

/mnt/hgfs/shared/petalinux-v2019.1-final-installer.run $HOME/petalinux/2019.1


Step #1.1: Observed:

INFO: Checking installation environment requirements...

Please refer to the PetaLinux Tools Installation Guide.

Check the troubleshooting guide at the end of that manual, and if you are
unable to resolve the issue please contact customer support with file:
   /home/demo/petalinux_installation_log

/mnt/hgfs/shared/petalinux-v2019.1-final-installer.run: line 140: /tmp/tmp.D0y1BqZe6j/petalinux-env-check: No such file or directory
ERROR: Failed to extract Petalinux installer...

Step #1.2: Examined log. Typed:

cat /home/demo/petalinux_installation_log


Step #1.2.1: /home/demo/petalinux_installation_log did report anything new. It contained the output listed above.



Step #2.1: Type the following to install gawk

sudo apt-get install gawk


Step #2.2: Saw gawk successfully installed


Step #3: Reran:

/mnt/hgfs/shared/petalinux-v2019.1-final-installer.run $HOME/petalinux/2019.1


Step #3.1: Observed:


demo@debian:~$ /mnt/hgfs/shared/petalinux-v2019.1-final-installer.run $HOME/petalinux/2019.1
INFO: Checking installation environment requirements...
WARNING: This is not a supported OS
INFO: Checking free disk space

ERROR: You are missing the following system tools required by PetaLinux:

WARNING: Please install required packages.

Please refer to the PetaLinux Tools Installation Guide.

Check the troubleshooting guide at the end of that manual, and if you are
unable to resolve the issue please contact customer support with file:
   /home/demo/petalinux_installation_log


Step #4.1: The post suggests that the error message does not report the correct package. You actually need libtool-bin


Step #4.2: Type:

sudo apt-get install libtool-bin


Step #4.2.1: Saw libtool-bin successfully installed


Step #5: Reran:

/mnt/hgfs/shared/petalinux-v2019.1-final-installer.run $HOME/petalinux/2019.1


Step #5.1: Accepted the license agreements (Press: Enter,q,y,q,y)


Saw the following output that suggests the install went okay:

Part E: Build a BSP to Check Install


Step #1: Typed:

mkdir -p ~/plxprjs

cd ~/plxprjs

source ~/petalinux/2019.1/settings.sh


Step #1.1: I saw:

demo@debian:~/plxprjs$ source ~/petalinux/2019.1/settings.sh

Step #11: Investigate running xsct directly. Typed:

cd ~/petalinux/2019.1/tools/xsct/bin/

./xsct


Step #11.1: Saw:

./xsct: line 194: 20320 Segmentation fault      "$RDI_BINROOT"/unwrapped/"$RDI_PLATFORM$RDI_OPT_EXT"/rlwrap -rc -b "(){}[],+= & ^%$#@"";|\\" -f "$HDI_APPROOT"/scripts/xsct/xsdb/cmdlist -H "$LOG_FILE" "$RDI_BINROOT"/loader -exec rdi_xsct "${RDI_ARGS[@]}"

Step #11.3: Installed rlwrap. Typed:

sudo apt-get install rlwrap


Step #11.4: Check rlwrap's path. Typed:

which rlwrap


Step #11.4.1: Saw:

/usr/bin/rlwrap


Step 11.5: Edit xsct. Typed:

vi +194 xsct


Step #11.5.1: Changed(in bold)

rm -rf xilinx-zc706-2019.1/

petalinux-create -t project -s /mnt/hgfs/shared/xilinx-zc706-v2019.1-final.bsp

Step #12.1.1: Rebuild. Typed:

cd xilinx-zc706-2019.1/

petalinux-build


Step #12.1.2: Saw a hang at:

[INFO] generating bbappends for project . This may take time !


Step #12.1.3: Typed Ctrl-C and looked at build/build.log

NOTE: Reconnecting to bitbake server...

Step #13: Give the VM at least 4 cores. Gave it 6 for good measure and tried again. Typed:

cd ~/plxprjs

source ~/petalinux/2019.1/settings.sh

rm -rf xilinx-zc706-2019.1/

sudo vmhgfs-fuse .host:/ /mnt/hgfs -o allow_other # Mount shared

petalinux-create -t project -s /mnt/hgfs/shared/xilinx-zc706-v2019.1-final.bsp

cd xilinx-zc706-2019.1/

petalinux-build


Step #13.1: This ^^^ also failed appeared to hang. Increased cores to 12. Typed:

cd ~/plxprjs

source ~/petalinux/2019.1/settings.sh

rm -rf xilinx-zc706-2019.1/

sudo vmhgfs-fuse .host:/ /mnt/hgfs -o allow_other # Mount shared

petalinux-create -t project -s /mnt/hgfs/shared/xilinx-zc706-v2019.1-final.bsp

cd xilinx-zc706-2019.1/

petalinux-build


Step #13.2: Saw it stuck. Killed with Ctrl-C. Typed

Step #14.1: Needed more RAM: Used 16 GB.Retested after setting VM to use 16 GB of RAM. Typed:


cd ~/plxprjs

source ~/petalinux/2019.1/settings.sh

cd xilinx-zc706-2019.1/

petalinux-build

petalinux-boot --qemu --kernel


Step #14.1.1: Observed a successful build.


Step #14.1.2: Observed the log of boot.


Step #14.1.2.1: The build appeared to hang around: hrtimer: interrupt took 66668558 ns


Run /init as init process
