CI failure notifications?
by Pierre-Yves Chibon 26 Jan '26

26 Jan '26

Good Morning Everyone, In the sig-docs [1] repository we have a CI job that runs daily and builds, runs and checks a number of images [2]. When those builds/runs/checks fail there is usually a good reason that we should go and check. Currently I believe I'm the only one being notified about those failure. As part of https://gitlab.com/CentOS/automotive/sig-docs/-/merge_requests/441 I'd like this list to be notified, but I don't want to do this without asking before. So what do you all think? Is anyone against this? If not, then I'll go ahead with the change and if it starts to be too annoying/noisy we can always revisit later :) Looking forward for your feedback :) Pierre

CentOS Bringup issue for J784S4 EVM board.
by sanskruti.bk＠mistralsolutions.com 25 Jan '26

25 Jan '26

We are experiencing issues while booting the J784S4 EVM board using prebuilt images. We have attached the detailed build procedure followed, along with the error logs observed during the boot process of the J784S4 board, for your reference. Please share the recommended procedure to create a bootable SD card using the prebuilt images. Procedure - 1. Site followed - https://sig.centos.org/automotive/provisioning/flashing-texas- instruments/ 2. Prebuilt image – 1. https://download.autosd.sig.centos.org/AutoSD-9/nightly/TI/auto- osbuild-j784s4evm-autosd9-qa-regular-aarch64-2208122337.e5a9b30b.raw.xz 3. To uncompress the image - $ xz -d =/home/sanskruti/Downloads/auto-osbuild- j784s4evm-autosd9-qa-regular-aarch64-2208122337.e5a9b30b.raw.xz 4. To flash image to sd card - sudo dd if=/home/sanskruti/Downloads/auto-osbuild- j784s4evm-autosd9-qa-regular-aarch64-2208122337.e5a9b30b.raw of=/dev/mmcblk0p bs=4M status=progress conv=fsync Output - (Logs after plug in the SD card to board) U-Boot SPL 2025.07-3.el9 (Sep 29 2025 - 00:00:00 +0000) SYSFW ABI: 4.0 (firmware rev 0x000b '11.0.9--v11.00.09+ (Fancy Rat)') Initialized 4 DRAM controllers SPL initial stack usage: 13456 bytes Trying to boot from MMC2 Loading Environment from nowhere...

Request: kernel-ivos-qualcomm dist-git repository
by scweaver＠redhat.com 21 Jan '26

21 Jan '26

Please create a dist-git repo for kernel-ivos-qualcomm at https://gitlab.com/CentOS/automotive/rpms/kernel-ivos-qualcomm This repo will be used in the same way that we use https://gitlab.com/CentOS/automotive/rpms/kernel-automotive today. For AutoSD builds we will push to the c10s-sig-automotive-main branch. (We do not need a c9s branch.) Thank you, Scott
