Hi Stanislav,
Back from TDC... Sorry for latency.
Thanks for your work. We'll test that ASAP. For all Release Engineers this could
be a great improvement, even if this doesn't totally replace tests on real
hardware. But I'm sure we could eliminate a lot of high-level problems with such
an emulation process.
I'll let you know what's going on. See you on TC-9 :-)
Cheers !
Stéphane

Hi, Stéphane and everyone
I've been thinking about your suggestion to provide a standalone emulator for
Tizen Common
and I decided to give it a try :) You can find it here -
https://github.com/Sheph/qemu
together with build/run instructions which are 3 simple steps, you don't need
Tizen SDK or anything special
to make this work.
Currently I just want to get some feedback from users, will this be useful to
anybody ? If yes, then
I can push more patches that improve performance and usability.
Thanks.
P.S: This is still experimental, there may be problems, so don't hesitate to
report them

Hi Stanislav,
Can you elaborate a bit to tell everyone how to boot the Tizen:Common
emulator image ?
Bootable Tizen:Common images are here -
http://download.tizen.org/snapshots/tizen/common/common-wayland-emulator32/
You can use Tizen IVI SDK to boot them.
Is it usable outside the SDK ? If so how ?
Well, yes, but it's too much work for the one who's not dedicated to all these
qemu things, one will have to
build qemu and emulator kernel from tizen.org and run that qemu with
appropriate arguments. IMO it's much easier
to use Tizen IVI SDK.
It would be interesting for any developer to boot the emulator image on
a classic laptop or desktop to test new features. It would be also
interesting to provide it as a single tool to avoid installing the whole
SDK.
That's an interesting idea. Technically the important bit you need is YaGL/VIGS
- the virtual GPU/DRM/OpenGL
that's needed to run wayland/weston/xwalk. Currently it's part of tizen
emulator, but it can be made standalone, i.e.
work with upstream qemu/upstream kernel.
Maybe updating the wiki page
https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/Modify_Emulator_Image with a chapter on
Tizen:Common makes sense.
Since Tizen:Common has image builds for emulator then I believe we don't need
to do
any of these steps. btw, this page looks outdated even for IVI, the only things
one needs
to install is system-plugin-emulator and emulator-yagl packages. Regarding
weston.patch - it
fixes weston touchscreen support in general, the patch set is sent
upstream -
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2014-May/014838.html
so once it's merged we wouldn't need this as well
Please update bug TC-9 to fix the remaining integration problems on the
emulator image of Tizen:Common.
I guess Max's fix - https://review.tizen.org/gerrit/#/c/22147/ should be merged
and
SR be generated and accepted.
I've already sent SR for these xwalk fixes -
https://bugs.tizen.org/jira/browse/PTAPI-37
So once these SRs are accepted remaining integration problems should be fixed.
But there're
still problems remaining described in
https://bugs.tizen.org/jira/browse/PTAPI-37, I'm investigating them currently
Thanks.
