^ OVERVIEW

This wiki document a starting point of Ted's notes on Linux use and configuration, Open Source Software and web development. Recent summer 2017 efforts of Ted's are focused on several high-level programming language and web development frameworks, which can be studied and used separately but are often glued together to achieve meaningful tasks and end-user tools and interfaces. This personal page of Ted's notes on Neela Nurseries wiki not yet well organized, but here as a quick stash point for holding useful references, and a starting point for more complete and formal documentation.

- 2017-10-05 - Ted noting here that would be good to have a technical glossary to make easily accessible all the technical terms which arise in daily work and exploration of technologies . . .

^ Web Site Building Blocks - Summer 2017 Work

The following tools and web and programming frameworks are all part of Ted's volunteer efforts with ASI web site, and in-progress study of how to configure and customize shopping carts, article and document management pages, and easy-to-read easy-to-adjust web page layouts using CSS and third party, open source frameworks:

Linux package selection for constrained systems
MYSQL data base install and config (set up)
- https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/create-user.html
- https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/privileges-provided.html
PHP set up
Apache2 set up
SSL Self-signed certificate creation and config
Sub-domain creation under Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and similar Linux releases
Mediawiki work . . .
- Install and config
- Back-up and restore steps
- Troubleshooting
OpenCart 2.x install and config, 'Wish List' and 'To Do List' . . .
- OpenCart installation and config
- OpenCart To-Do and Wish List

These are the first topics on which Ted wants to gather together notes. Hard to remember all details regarding pitfalls encountered, solutions found, and ideas for improving the configuration and use experience of these softwares . . . - TMH

^ Linux Packages

- 2017-07-31 सोमवार -

This section a starting point for notes on Linux packages, namely Debian and Ubuntu packages. Focus here is on userland software, and which packages are needed to set up various tools sets in a working Unix / Linux environment . . .

libreoffice . . .

postfix . . . see section below

gpm
ctags
vim-doc
vim-scripts
xfonts-cyrillic
fonts-sil-gentium-basic

devhelp

distcc . . . distributed compiling of C and C++ programs across multiple machines

- 2017-10-12 THU -

radeontop

^ sudo

Ted noting sudo manual page URL here, in order to revisit and read about sudo -e as well as sudo invoked with the -l and -v options. Also noting there is an environment variable sometimes set, variable named $SUDO_USER.

https://www.sudo.ws/man/sudoers.man.html

^ parted partition editor

Some excerpts from parted use on LFS volume . . .


(parted) print /dev/sdb                                                   
Model: ATA ST3160812AS (scsi)
Disk /dev/sdb: 160GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: msdos

Number  Start   End     Size    Type      File system  Flags
 1      32.3kB  107MB   107MB   primary   ext4         boot
 2      107MB   7789MB  7682MB  extended
 5      107MB   7789MB  7682MB  logical   ext4

   .
   .
   .

Well one thing Ted noting is that parted cannot resize file systems, which are the structured data which overlay and live in partitions. The partition is one thing, mapped in a partition table somewhere on the physical disk or volume. The file system on a given partition is another thing, contained and bounded within that partition. Resizing the partition doesn't resize the file system. So which tool can deal with resizing a partition on which an ext4 file system exists? And then permit a next, independent step to resize the file system there? - TMH

^ Bash Shell Scripting

Shell scripting and use of built-in shell commands is a really practical knowledge to employ, when working in Unix-like environments. One common task is to find all the instances of a given file or program. The locate command can perform this kind of search, but it's results don't show whether the file instances differ. To check at the rough level of file size, we can use a one-line shell script technique involving shell piping, to "long list" the results of the locate command, like this . . .

  $ for file in `locate tavrasm | grep 'asm$'`; do ls -l ${file}; done

Hmm strange, the above command calls `grep` with a pattern that ends in the shell end-of-line anchoring character $, and appears to filter for results of `locate` which end in 'asm'. But on 2017-09-12 needed to add a "one or more wildcard" character pattern to limit search results for instances of `locate` results ending in 'qemu':

$ locate qemu | grep '.*qemu$'

Why the apparent difference in command invocation? Need to test . . . - TMH

^ Aboriginal Linux - project now defunct, new project is 'makeroot'

Ok, looks like Robert Landley's Aboriginal Linux project has been superceded by mkroot. Ladnley's newer makeroot project sources are available at GitHub:

^ Linux From Scratch (LFS) Project - 8.1 Release

- 2017-09-26 - Ted soon to move these Linux From Scratch notes to a Linux From Scratch wiki page.

Here are notes by Ted, beginning work to build a 'Linux From Scratch' system crossed-compiled for the ARM architecture, in a way suitable to run with complete function on RaspberryPi development boards. At same time Ted looking to build minimal system and tool chain, offering environment in which to compile and to cross-compile C and C++ programs. Notes here begin with some useful, initially found links to LFS home page of Gerard Beekman et al:

^ First mount and build steps

- 2017-90-18 MON -

LFS book release 8.1, chapter 2.4 talks about typical and "convenience" partitions which are often or sometimes created for Unix and Linux systems. Ted's notebook of LFS work past two weeks not on hand, but going from memory and cfdisk partition list which lacks labels and mount points, here are the partitions Ted created first time stepping through chapter 2:

Per chapter 2.4 comments on convenience partitions, Ted not creating a partition for either /usr nor /tmp. Ted creating /opt for software which falls outside of Debian and Ubuntu package lists, such as LPCXpresso and LTSpice.

Working through LFS stable release book or instructions, at end of chapter two page titled chapter 2.7 LFS book calls for first mount of newly created system-to-be partition. Ted using ext4 type journaled file system. Somewhere in or about chapter five, further mounts of other file systems of the new system are needed. Here 2017-09-25 Monday Ted noting history of mounts, which were completed prior to software compilations in chapter 6:


ted@localhost:~$ echo $LFS
/mnt/lfs

ted@localhost:~$ history | grep mount
   .
   .
   .
  556  sudo mount -v -t ext4 /dev/sdb5 /mnt/lfs
  673  history | grep mount
  674  sudo mount -v -t ext4 /dev/sdb5 /mnt/lfs
  779  mount
  939  mount
  976  sudo mount -v --bind /dev $LFS/dev
  977  sudo mount -vt devpts devpts $LFS/dev/pts -o gid=5,mode=620
  978  mount -vt proc proc $LFS/proc
  979  sudo mount -vt proc proc $LFS/proc
  980  sudo mount -vt sysfs sysfs $LFS/sys
  981  sudo mount -vt tmpfs tmpfs $LFS/run
  986  mount
  988  sudo umount /mnt/lfs
 1001  history | grep mount

ted@localhost:~$

The key mounting steps are, assuming $LFS set to /mnt/lfs . . .


    $ # From LFS 8.1 chapter 2.7, mounting the new file system:

    $ sudo mount -v -t ext4 /dev/sdb5 /mnt/lfs


    $ # From LFS 8.1 chapter 6.2, preparing virtual kernel file systems:

    $ sudo mount -v --bind /dev $LFS/dev
    $ sudo mount -vt proc proc $LFS/proc
    $ sudo mount -vt sysfs sysfs $LFS/sys
    $ sudo mount -vt tmpfs tmpfs $LFS/run

Ted noting specific mount steps as root partition at 7.7GB too small to permit chapter 6 builds. Ted learning parted disk partitioning utility in order to resize /dev/sdb5 root partition of 2017 September LFS project build. There appears to be some good notes on using a tool named resize2fs at the AskUbuntu forum page https://askubuntu.com/questions/390769/how-do-i-resize-partitions-using-command-line-without-using-a-gui-on-a-server. But neither parted for resize2fs alone were the answer, Ted uses cfdisk, e2fsck and resize2fs to achieve a partition and corresponding file system size increase.

After building first package binutils-2.29 the directory /tools holds directories and files in the following command line snippet of figure x. Bin-utils 2p29 took about 5 mins 30 seconds to build:

^ chapter 6.2 - preparing virtual kernel file systems

Specific mount invocations mentioned in chapter 6.2. From section 6.2.2 the first mount invocation:

  mount -v --bind /dev $LFS/dev

And from section 6.2.3 the remaining mount invocations:

  mount -vt devpts devpts $LFS/dev/pts -o gid=5,mode=620
  mount -vt proc proc $LFS/proc
  mount -vt sysfs sysfs $LFS/sys
  mount -vt tmpfs tmpfs $LFS/run

Ted's test of cut-and-paste text to permit running all five mount invocations with one text copy action . . . Ted noting the backslashes for line continuation don't work, and thinking on this syntax it makes sense that we need separate each mount invocation, as these are complete commands. Otherwise the second `mount` is parsed by the shell as an rgument to the first appearance of `mount` . . .


mount -v --bind /dev $LFS/dev ;\
mount -vt devpts devpts $LFS/dev/pts -o gid=5,mode=620 ;\
mount -vt proc proc $LFS/proc ;\
mount -vt sysfs sysfs $LFS/sys ;\
mount -vt tmpfs tmpfs $LFS/run

^ chapter 6.4 - entering the chroot environment

Taken directly from the chapter:


chroot "$LFS" /tools/bin/env -i \
    HOME=/root                  \
    TERM="$TERM"                \

Linux From Scratch chapter 5 has thirty seven sections. There was not a pressing need or a lot of details Ted found worth noting in most of these sections, the majority of which are dedicated to packages built in the first package building phase of LFS target system creation. These packages are all built as the user 'lfs', and with the environment variable $LFS set, in our case Ted's case, to /mnt/lfs.

An important instruction to follow from the last section of chapter 5, section 5.37:

  " Note
 
   The commands in the remainder of this book must be performed while logged in as user root and no longer as user lfs. Also, double check that $LFS is set in root's environment."

^ Uses of patch during LFS 8.1 chapter 5

Ted noting that as of 2017 later summer, among the Linux From Scratch 8.1 packages there are six which download with associated patch files. These patches are important to apply after un-archiving given package, and before preparing to compile given package:

^ Aside: LFS 8.1 chapter 6.9 - glibc-2.26 programs and libraries

Really interesting section of the LFS 8.1 book here, chapter 6.9, which describes some of the utilities which come with GNU C library project. Quoting this book these utilities include "catchsegv, gencat, getconf, getent, iconv, iconvconfig, ldconfig, ldd, lddlibc4, locale, localedef, makedb, mtrace, nscd, pldd, sln, sotruss, sprof, tzselect, xtrace, zdump, and zic".

^ LFS 8.1 chapter 6.16 - binutils-2.29 requires 4.2 GB disk space!

Ok we've run into a too small partition for our root LFS file system. 7.6GB was not sufficient, though in an early chapter (chapter 2 or 3 of the LFS 8.1 book) Ted recalls there being word that a partition between five (5) and ten (10) GB would typically be sufficient to compile and install all Linux From Scratch programs. Ted now looking to re-partitioning software options under Linux . . .

Ok, got the partition resized, and then the file system on the root LFS partition resized too. Took a few notes and command line captures, which are in the wiki page titled Resize partition and file system.

Moving on and building binutils-2.29, found two tests to fail during the mandatory `make -k check` step. Failures noted here in case there are problems in later steps of the LFS 8.1 system build process:

Ted noting that the second failure is noted in LFS 8.1 as a known failure, and doesn't break the overall process or target system building.

^ LFS 8.1 chapter 6.20, gcc-7-2-.0

Ted noting that after compiling gcc using the new LFS tools from chapter 5, a check that the new gcc of chapter 6 sees correct header files gives slightly lesser results than what's in chapter 6.20. The book and chapter say to expect,

#include <...> search starts here:
 /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/7.2.0/include
 /usr/local/include
 /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/7.2.0/include-fixed
 /usr/include

But on our i686 host Ted obtains from the same post-gcc-build test:

root:/sources/gcc-7.2.0/build# grep -B4 '^ /usr/include' dummy.log
#include "..." search starts here:
#include <...> search starts here:
 /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/7.2.0/include
 /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/7.2.0/include-fixed
 /usr/include
root:/sources/gcc-7.2.0/build#

We're missing /usr/local/include among gcc's search paths. Not sure why, nor whether this is a deal breaker going forward with the LFS 8.1 build - TMH

^ LFS 8.1 chapter 6.21

To better understand Posix regular expressions, Ted to return and look at differences between old and amended versions of bzip2 makefile here in LFS 8.1 chapter 6.21 . . .

Was simply looking for latest package compiled and installed, following LFS book 8.1. But instead found permissions to differ. Perhaps some of the installed packages reflect those originally downloaded by the 'lfs' user. For some reason it was necessary to download some packages again after remounting the LFS partition and resuming work following a power-down event over two days' time . . .

^ QEMU Emulator

Notes on QEMU, an emulator which can help with building and configuring Linux systems to run on embedded computers and development boards. Ted noting 2017-09-08 that to compile today's latest QEMU source, a 2.10.x release, needed to install Debian stretch packages pkg-config, libglib2.0-dev, dhautoreconf. Here are some links to downloading QEMU project sources, a manual for using QEMU, and an article about emulating a RaspberryPi system by using QEMU:

So got QEMU 2.10.0 sources and dependencies installed, ran `configure` and `make` steps, and let the build process run for an hour or two. But in the end could not find any `qemu` executable. Why is the emulator itself apparently missing? Building latest QEMU under Linux . . .

Building QEMU on Linux type hosts

So I'm following the above article author's typical build steps, and run into this message part-way down those steps, at the step of calling `make`:

user@host-6:~/Downloads/qemu/qemu-2.10.0/bin/debug/native$ make
Makefile:21: *** This is an out of tree build but your source tree (/home/veris/Downloads/qemu/qemu-2.10.0) seems to have been used for an in-tree build. You can fix this by running "make distclean && rm -rf *-linux-user *-softmmu" in your source tree.  Stop.
user@host-6:~/Downloads/qemu/qemu-2.10.0/bin/debug/native$

Ok interesting, I know that QEMU is a complicated project with a complex build process, but clearly I don't know what I'm doing. Following the above 'distclean' command given in the error message from QEMU's makefile, I'm now able to begin an "out of tree" build as described in the "Building QEMU" article at qemu.org just above. Tired already however of QEMU project builds taking more than an hour to complete. Here is one of many articles describing how to invoke `make` to build only limited parts of QEMU project, for example just the pieces needed to emulate ARM type systems:

Build qemu-system-arm on Linux host

Ted to test this type of build soon . . .

On a different note, QEMU build has completed and the stock RaspberryPi Debian "Stretch" image is coming up. Needed to install a VNC client to interact with the emulated RaspberryPi operating and software, stored in the downloaded .img file from Rpi's web site. Here's a link to a forum post which clued Ted into Remmina VNC client:
