Hi @Lazar-Demin & @crispyoz, I was able to find the root cause for this issue. I've created a pull request in OnionIoT/source github repository with the fix.

Hi @Lazar-Demin & @crispyoz, I was able to find the root cause for this issue. I've created a pull request in OnionIoT/source github repository with the fix.

@crispyoz thanks for the update. You're correct. The make command does not return an error. However, after it finishes running openwrt-ramips-mt76x8-omega2p-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin is generated but not openwrt-ramips-mt76x8-omega2pro-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin.
When looking into the make command output, the messages shown below are the only reference to the Omega2Pro image.

Please let me know if you have any new finding.

Thanks in advance,

@crispyoz good to know that it worked for you.

I've checked the source/target/linux/ramips/dts/OMEGA2PRO.dts and it includes the latest modification pushed by @Lazar-Demin to the source repo.

/dts-v1/;

#include "OMEGA2.dtsi"

/ {
        model = "Onion Omega2 Pro";

        memory@0 {
                device_type = "memory";
                reg = <0x0 0x8000000>;
        };

        new-leds {
                compatible = "gpio-leds";

                wifi {
                        label = "omega2pro:blue:wifi";
                        gpios = <&gpio1 12 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
                };
        };
};

&firmware {
        reg = <0x50000 0x1f30000>;
};

&system_led {
        label = "omega2pro:amber:system";
        gpios = <&gpio1 11 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
};

&pinctrl {
        state_default: pinctrl0 {
                uart2 {
                        ralink,group = "uart2";
                        ralink,function = "gpio";
                };
        };
};

BTW, I'm sharing with you the content from source/bin/targets/ramips/mt76x8 directory. Does the Omega2+ image build has the same size than the one you built?

@crispyoz please find the CustomConfig in the following link. https://paste.mozilla.org/qrMwjsZR

Hi @crispyoz, I'm including below the steps followed to setup the build system and compile it. I started from scratch to make sure that the changes pushed by @Lazar-Demin were included in the build system.

Note: I'm using a Linux System and not the Docker image.

• create an onion folder, navigate into it and download the build system from github.

  mkdir onion
  cd onion
  git clone https://github.com/OnionIoT/source.git -b openwrt-18.06
  cd source
  

• setup the onion feeds.

  sh scripts/onion-feed-setup.sh
  python scripts/onion-setup-build.py
  

• update the image configuration. If I manually chose the packages and target (among other options), I run make menuconfig. However, I usually use an already generated .config file, which has a diff format.

  cp CustomConfig /home/user/onion/source/.config
  cd /home/user/onion/source
  make defconfig
  

• finally, the image is built by running make -j4. If any error is raised, I re run the command with the following syntax to get more information about the error: make -j1 V=s

These bullets summarize the steps followed to build the image. Let me know if there is any way I can share with you the config file.

BTW, when selecting both the Omega2 Pro and the Omega2+ as the Target Devices, binary for Omega2+ is generated but not for the Omega2 Pro. As for the Omega2+, the binary size is 18 MB, and as for the Omega2 Pro, I get the warning message that the image is too big.

Best regards,
Matias

Hi @Lazar-Demin, I've cloned the repo to start from scratch and make sure the latest commit was being used from https://github.com/OnionIoT/source (and also for the new DTS to take effect).
I'm still observing the same issue. Please let me know if there is any extra infromation I can provide you. I'm including below the output for the make command, where the error is raised.

Awesome, thank you @Lazar-Demin! I'll be waiting for your updated status so I can give it a try.

Best regards,
Matias

Hi @crispyoz. It's an Omega2S+.

In the OpenWRT configuration, I've selected Multiple Devices in the Target Profile menu and then Onion Omega2 Pro in the Target Devices menu. BTW, if we select Onion Omega2 Pro in the Target Profile menu, image was not being built correctly.

Best regards,
Matias

@Lazar-Demin thanks for your response, as well as @crispyoz.

I understand that the warning message spells it out and that is what triggered my original question. When compiling the image (removing some custom files), I get a binary whose size is 14.5 MB.

If I include some custom files into the firmware image, as described in OnionIot source repository readme, I get the warning message and the binary is not generated. Please note that the size for the custom files added is less than 2 MB.

The 'firmware' partition for the Onion Omega2S is ~31.2 MB. This is the reason why I'm asking if it is possible to build an image whose size greater than ~16 MB (and smaller than 31.2 MB).

Best regards,
Matias

@Lazar-Demin thanks for your response.

I'm building the image following the instructions from the readme in https://github.com/OnionIoT/source repository. In my case I'm using a PC running Ubuntu 18.04 as my Build System.

Please find below the error message shown. It first shows a warning message and then if fails when trying to copy the image from build_dir to bin.
