Hard coded path in /usr/bin/pvrsrvctl #105

Open 7-Core opened 1 year ago

7-Core commented 1 year ago

Using current Debian 11.x (Bullseye) TI EDGEAI (Xfce) Desktop Snapshot bbai64-debian-11.7-xfce-edgeai-arm64-2023-05-03-10gb.img.xz

root@BeagleBone:/lib/modules# pvrsrvctl --start Failed to load /lib/modules/5.10.140-00001-g69e7a81501b2/extra/pvrsrvkm.ko: No such file or directory

Creating the following symlinks gets my application running

root@BeagleBone:/lib/modules# ls -l total 4 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 May 16 23:54 5.10.140-00001-g69e7a81501b2 -> 5.10.168-ti-arm64-r102 drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 May 16 23:49 5.10.168-ti-arm64-r102

(Correct output below) root@BeagleBone:/lib/modules/5.10.168-ti-arm64-r102/extra# pvrsrvctl --start Using default driver configuration (no powervr.ini present)

pvrsrvctl is required for the Imagination University AI Demos.

Shoutout and thanks for the help in the live chat channel.

Oh fun, so Imagination built pvrsrvkm.ko against, 5.10.140-00001-g69e7a81501b2 a non-production random build..

i need to take a look at their docs again..

That might be true, but I will point out there is a pvrsrvkm.ko in the *r102/ (current kernel version module) directory which seems to work once I create the symlinks to where pvrsrvctl is looking.

It is the loader /usr/bin/pvrsrvctl that seems to be looking in the wrong place.
