Hello, NXP team:

We encounter build failure on Yocto Zeus ( imx-5.4.70-2.3.2 branch).

The error message shows "ERROR: libgpuperfcnt-6.4.3.p1.4-r0 do_fetch: Fetcher failure for URL: 'https://www.nxp.com/lgfiles/NMG/MAD/YOCTO/libgpuperfcnt-6.4.3.p1.4-arm-x11.bin;fsl-eula=true;name=ar...'. Unable to fetch URL from any source.
"

Steps:

# repo init -u https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/imx-manifest -b imx-linux-zeus -m imx-5.4.70-2.3.2.xml

# repo sync -j8
# DISTRO=fsl-imx-x11 MACHINE=imx6dlsabresd source imx-setup-release.sh -b build-x11-imx6dlsabresd
# bitbake imx-image-full

You can easily to replicate this problem by downloading:

https://www.nxp.com/lgfiles/NMG/MAD/YOCTO/libgpuperfcnt-6.4.3.p1.4-arm-x11.bin

The link is invalid.

In "imx-5.4.70-2.3.2" branch, it uses "libgpuperfcnt-6.4.3.p1.0".

The download link is:

https://www.nxp.com/lgfiles/NMG/MAD/YOCTO/libgpuperfcnt-6.4.3.p1.0-arm-x11.bin

And it is valid.

So, it looks the problem is caused by "https://www.nxp.com/lgfiles/NMG/MAD/YOCTO/libgpuperfcnt-6.4.3.p1.4-arm-x11.bin" is invalid.

Could you fix the link?

Thanks~!!!

BR,

Well, if you're NXP, it's not really a problem @sinan since they don't support X11 distro. However, it would be very, very nice if NXP and their upstream hardware (SoM) vendors made it much much more clear and painfully obvious that they only really support `DISTRO=fsl-imx-xwayland` and that any errors you encounter when using another DISTRO (or even changing DISTRO_FEATURES in local conf) _are not expected to work_. This has caused me considerable pain, but it's really a matter of acceptance and moving on to find your own solution. It would be great if there were an open space where real users of these platforms crowd-sourced other distros based on `fsl-imx-xwayland` that were more realistic for minimalist use cases that don't want the kitchen sink installed on their embedded devices. This must be the majority of us, however we don't band together much because the companies we work for keep their yocto code private. It's a shame.

Can anyone in NXP help to fix this problem?

[joanxie]

X11 isn't supported in 5.4 anymore

[sinan]

The problem still continues.
