runqemu and devtool inside poky-container #42

Closed dkruces closed 4 years ago

Hi!

I'm trying to use devtool inside the container which is already running the qemu image. Would this be possible?

docker run --rm -it -p 2222:2222 -v $PWD:/workdir crops/poky:debian-9 --workdir=/workdir
source poky/oe-init-build-env
MACHINE=qemux86-64 core-image-minimal
runqemu qemux86-64 slirp nographic

Now, how can I connect a new container to use devtool in there and send the devtool results to the running image?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @dagmcr,

Does it need to be a separate container? For instance the below works for me when using core-image-sato:

Inside container

% runqemu slirp

In another shell on host

% docker exec --user=pokyuser -it CONTAINERID bash
pokyuser@bdae98f98ef7:/home/yoctouser$ ssh -l root -p 2222 localhost
root@qemux86:~#

This means that port 2222 is working for the ssh port. You should be able to do devtool deploy-target -s -P 2222 recipename root@localhost if you source oe-init-build-env in the second shell.

Hi @rewitt1,

Thanks for the help! That's exactly what I was looking for and it worked so well.
