h1. Porting Replicant to Android 9 

 {{>toc}} 

 h2. AOSP 9 

 h3. Status with AOSP 9 

 * The Galaxy SIII 4G (i9305) boots (with graphics hacks) under AOSP9, without having to import nonfree libraries: 
 ** The device boots until the lock screen 
 ** The graphics work but are really slow as they have not been optimized 
 ** Sometime the display content is corrupted 
 ** The touchscreen works 
 * The kernel used is based on Linux 5.0-rc6 and has ~150 Android specific patches on top and some patches for the Galaxy SIII 4G (i9305) on top 

 h3.    Repositories and changes 
 
 * git://git.putti.eu/aosp/manifest_i9305.git 
 * git://git.putti.eu/aosp/kernel_i9305.git 
 * git://git.putti.eu/aosp/device_i9305.git 
 * git://git.putti.eu/aosp/external_mesa3d.git 
 * git://git.putti.eu/aosp/build_make.git 
 * git://git.putti.eu/aosp/core.git 

 h3. Building AOSP version 

 h4. Source code 

 First get the source code: 
 <pre> 
 $ repo init -u git://git.putti.eu/aosp/manifest_i9305.git -b android-9.0.0 
 </pre> 

 h4. For Trisquel 8 

 <pre> 
 sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential zip curl zlib1g-dev gcc-multilib g++-multilib libc6-dev-i386 lib32ncurses5-dev x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev lib32z-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libxml2-utils xsltproc unzip bc python-mako 
 </pre> 

 h4. Building it 

 Once this is done, see the device/putti/i9305/README.md for the build instructions. 

 h4. Trisquel 8 LXC 

 If you use Parabola, you may be interested in running Trisquel 8 in LXC. 

 To do that first debootstrap a Trisquel 8 rootfs.  

 Parabola's debootstrap does support Trisquel 8 and its manual has an example on how to do that: 
 <pre> 
 $ man debootstrap 
 [...] 
 # debootstrap flidas flidas-root http://archive.trisquel.info/trisquel 
 </pre> 

 Then you can use virt-manager to setup the LXC instance. 

 The advantages of this solution are that: 
 * The LXC guest and host shares their resources (CPU, RAM) with almost no penalty 
 * Trisquel 8 is not a rolling release distribution 

 The disadvantage of this solution are that: 
 * you need to configure again the Trisquel 8 LXC instance (vimrc, sshd_config, etc) 
 * It's more complicated to setup 
 * The Android build system output a warning message about not being able to use namespaces which may become mandatory in newer Android versions 

 h2. LineageOS 16 

 h3. Repositories and changes for LineageOS 16 

 * https://git.replicant.us/GNUtoo/kernel_replicant_linux.git 
 * git://git.putti.eu/aosp/external_mesa3d.git 
 * https://git.replicant.us/GNUtoo/android_build.git 
 * https://git.replicant.us/GNUtoo/device_i9305.git 
 * https://git.replicant.us/GNUtoo/manifest.git 
 * https://git.replicant.us/GNUtoo/vendor_replicant.git 

 h3. Building LineageOS 16 version 

 h4. Source code 

 <pre> 
 $ repo init -u https://git.replicant.us/GNUtoo/manifest.git -b GNUtoo/lineage-16.0-base 
 $ repo sync 
 </pre> 

 h4. For Trisquel 8 

 <pre> 
 sudo apt-get install bc bison build-essential ccache curl flex g++-multilib gcc-multilib gettext git gnupg gperf imagemagick lib32ncurses5-dev lib32readline-dev lib32z1-dev liblz4-tool libncurses5-dev libsdl1.2-dev libssl-dev libwxgtk3.0-dev libxml2 libxml2-utils lzop python-mako pngcrush rsync schedtool squashfs-tools xsltproc zip zlib1g-dev 
 sudo apt-get install gcc-5-arm-linux-gnueabi 
 </pre> 

 h4. Launching the build 

 Follow the "i9300 manifest instructions:":https://github.com/CustomRoms/android_local_manifests_i9300 
 <pre> 
 $ subject='/C=US/ST=California/L=Mountain View/O=Android/OU=Android/CN=Android/emailAddress=android@android.com' 
 $ mkdir .android-certs 
 $ for x in releasekey platform shared media testkey; do \ 
   ./development/tools/make_key .android-certs/$x "$subject"; \ 
   done 
 $ parallel_tasks=$(echo "$(grep 'processor' /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l ) + 1" | bc) 
 $ source build/envsetup.sh 
 $ lunch lineage_i9305-eng 
 $ make -j${parallel_tasks} bacon 
 </pre> 

 The images can then be flashed with heimdall. They are then in: 
 <pre> 
   out/target/product/i9305/obj/PACKAGING/target_files_intermediates/lineage_i9305-target_files-eng.replicant/IMAGES/ 
 </pre> 

 h4. Getting lastest changes 

 * The repositories are being constantly modified with git push --force as we are trying things out, and don't want to make the commits history look too much dirty, so be sure to backup your local changes. 
 * Sometimes the manifest repository is also modified with git push --force. In that case the following commands will loose all the work you did locally but will make the repository consistent with upstream repositories again: 
 <pre> 
 $ rm -rf .repo/manifests/ # This enables me to force push and rebase the manifest repository as well 
 $ repo init -u https://git.replicant.us/GNUtoo/manifest.git -b GNUtoo/lineage-16.0-base 
 $ repo sync --force-sync 
 </pre> 
 * The following command might also be necessary to make the state consistent with upstream repositories again, when the manifest history wasn't rewritten, but it will also loose all the work you did locally:  
 <pre> 
 $ repo sync --force-sync 
 </pre> 

 h4. Install the images 

 <pre> 
 $ sudo heimdall flash --BOOT out/target/product/i9305/obj/PACKAGING/target_files_intermediates/lineage_i9305-target_files-eng.replicant/IMAGES/boot.img --USERDATA out/target/product/i9305/obj/PACKAGING/target_files_intermediates/lineage_i9305-target_files-eng.replicant/IMAGES/userdata.img --SYSTEM out/target/product/i9305/obj/PACKAGING/target_files_intermediates/lineage_i9305-target_files-eng.replicant/IMAGES/system.img  
 </pre> 

 h4. Get adb 

 As the device IDs are the ones given by the Linux kernel, they are not in the adb udev rules, so for now it requires to run adb as root: 
 <pre> 
 $ sudo adb shell 
 * daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037 
 * daemon started successfully 
 i9305:/ #                                  
 $ sudo adb kill-server 
 $ adb shell 
 * daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037 
 * daemon started successfully 
 error: no devices/emulators found 
 </pre> 
 So make sure to kill the adb-server and run it as root: 
 <pre> 
 $ adb kill-server 
 $ sudo adb shell 
 * daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037 
 * daemon started successfully 
 i9305:/ #  
 </pre> 

 h4. Booting 

 At some point during boot, the device goes into suspend, so you will need to press some buttons like the power or volume button to make the boot continue until the graphical interface. 

 You can also follow the boot progress with adb: 
 <pre> 
 adb logcat 
 adb logcat -b main 
 </pre> 

 Note that the device can go into suspend at any time, so adb might be interrupted. That looks like that: 
 First you get a shell 
 <pre> 
 $ sudo adb shell 
 i9305:/ # 
 </pre> 

 Then the connection is interrupted: 
 <pre> 
 $ adb shell 
 i9305:/ # [randomdev@fullyfreelaptop ]$                                                                                                      
 </pre> 

 The effect with adb logcat is similar. 

 h3. cleanups to be done 

 * Make adb work as user by using the right USB IDs, and make userspace do the USB setup. 
 * -Make the kernel not use hardcoded CMDLINE_FORCE- Not possible unless the bootloader is changed or Linux is very heavily patched. 
 * Make the kernel not use hardcoded partitions if possible (though we use system as root) 
 * Make a clean Gatekeeper HAL module implementation instead of using the same hack than goldfish 
 * look at "init.rc":https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/core/+/master/init/README.md documentation to see if init.rc can be overriden clearly with the override statement to see if it's possible to keep the serial console patch for -eng 

 h2. Upstreaming status 

 * "Unbreak 5.2 booting":https://www.openwall.com/lists/kernel-hardening/2019/06/14/4 
 * -"add flash support to galaxy-s3 boards":https://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2019-June/660361.html- "applied":https://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2019-June/661471.html 

 h2. TODO 

 First month of full time equivalent work: 

 |_. Time estimation    |_.Task |_. Comments | 
 | DONE | -boot a device under AOSP9- | Only boots with graphics, not much more | 
 | -7h- DONE | -build it under a "FSDG compliant distribution":https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.html like Trisquel8- | -WIP for AOSP, It's difficult to do precise time estimations as it could work out of the box or require one full time month of work depending on how much issues are encountered-  
 Builds under Trisquel8| 
 | 21h | * -port the changes from AOSP9 to LineageOS 16- 
 * -cleanup the code- 
 * -build the kernel from the Android build system- 
 * -make sure it builds with an FSDG compliant distribution- 
 * -document the build procedure- | 
 Status: 
 * Boots with adb. 
 * Has ultra slow graphics | 
 | 14h | find, remove and document proprietary software in LineageOS 16 | | 
 | 21h | find, remove and document privacy issues in LineageOS 16 | | 
 | 7h | port the touch keys Linux -driver- dts for the    galaxy-s3 boards | Also requires a n710x for testing the patch | 
 | 7h | -upstream the AAT1290 flash led Linux dts for the galaxy-s3 boards- | "applied upstream":https://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2019-June/661471.html | 
 | 7h | rebrand LineageOS as Replicant | | 
 | 70h | port and cleanup the the Galaxy SIII (i9300) "modem":https://github.com/fourkbomb/linux/tree/modem Linux driver from 4.16 to 5.0| | 
 |_\3. Total: 147h (~1 month) | 

 Second month of full time equivalent work: 
 | * port    libsamsung-ril and libsamsung-ipc to Android 9 
 * Make the modem driver and libsamsung-ipc work together | 157h | -libsamsung-ipc should be trivial, libsamsung-ril probably needs to be heavily adapted to Trebble or the new RIL interfaces- 
 -libsamsung-ipc and samsung-ril were fixed to compile on Android 9.- 
 -The code was not yet tested at runtime.- 
 -It also probably still need to be adapted to trebble or the new RIL interfaces to be more substainable.- 
 Status: 
 * The code has been updated to work without a wrapper on Android 9, but some cleanups are needed in all the modem related components. 
 * The modem doesn't work yet on Replicant 9 but some of the initialization already works. 
 On Replicant 6 we have:

 lineage-16.0 branch | hardware/samsung/macloader | | Loads the MAC Address of the WiFi network interface | Might be useful | 
 | hardware/samsung/wifiloader | | Loads the wifi kernel module (like modprobe) and setup firmware filesystems permissions | May be useful | 
 | hardware/samsung/audio | | seems to contains ril related stuff as well | Look if the ril stuff is required, go for standard audio | 
 | hardware/samsung/lineagehw/hidl/livedisplay | | livedisplay is a feature similar to what redshift does on GNU/Linux | Not sure if it works with mainline | 
 | hardware/samsung/exynos/multimedia/utils/ | seem meant for audio/video decoding offload | assembly obtimized color conversion and resize code | check assembly code license, not sure if useful | 
 | all other directories in hardware/samsung/exynos/ | nonfree firmwares, nonfree software?, smdk kernel? | audio/video decoding offload | Avoid using that | 
 | hardware/samsung/exynos3 |/2. nonfree firmwares?, nonfree software?, smdk kernel? |/2. some light libraries, display stuff (gralloc, etc), 2D acceleration (FIMG), camera (FIMC), 3D acceleration, etc |/2. Avoid using that for now | 
 | hardware/samsung/exynos4 |
