Gingerbread redux

I've been running GingerStreak of late and I'm not best pleased with the results. So I thought I'd try my hand at building Gingerbread for the Streak. Dell has helped out by actually releasing a working kernel. Just so I remember, here's how I put myself onto the latest released msm8660 build (gingerbread_house @ CodeAurora):

 repo forall -c git checkout M8660AAABQNLZA3620 

 Initially I just moved the original externals to a .aosp directory (e.g. bluetooth -> bluetooth.aosp) so that I could diff them, but the default build process still wants to build 'em. Looks like I'll have to move it outside the tree.

Python and libpuzzle

As much as I've dogged on Python in the past (significant whitespace, really?), I've got to admit that it's got some cool features too. For example, I'm playing with libpuzzle  (a library for visually comparing images).  It has a command line utility and a C and PHP API.  Unfortunately, the CLI utility doesn't allow one to dump the raw comparison vector, and it's a PITA to write C just to play with a library. Python's native "ctypes" to the rescue! from ctypes import * class PuzzleCvec(Structure): _fields_ = [("sizeof_vec", c_size_t), ("vec", c_char_p)] class PuzzleCompressedCvec(Structure): _fields_ = [("sizeof_compressed_vec", c_size_t), ("vec", c_char_p)] class PuzzleContext(Structure): _fields_ = [("puzzle_max_width", c_uint), ("puzzle_max_height", c_uint), ("puzzle_lambdas", c_uint), ...

Mass updating AWS Lambda Log Group retention

AWS Lambda and I have a love/hate relationship.  There is much about Lambda to like, but there are also some very sharp edges operationally. One of the cool things is that you get a new CloudWatch Log Group for every new Lambda function without any effort on your part.  Less cool is that it has unlimited retention.  If you haven't yet followed Yan Cui's advice , then you can use some Bash/CLI magic to fix retention on your existing Log Groups. First, get a list of all your default Lambda log groups:  aws logs describe-log-groups --log-group-name-prefix "/aws/lambda" | grep logGroupName | cut -d : -f 2 | cut -d \" -f 2 > /tmp/lambda_logs Read that into a Bash array:  readarray -t log_groups < /tmp/lambda_logs Then, add a 7 day retention policy to all those log groups:  for i in "${log_groups[@]}"; do aws logs put-retention-policy --log-group-name $i --retention-in-days 7; done It's a hack, but if you're going to put in th...

If it builds, ship it...

I've finally gotten a working build.  It turns out what I really needed was to get up @ 0630, take a shower, and just plug away. Anyhow, the source is up on github:   https://github.com/coredog64 I still need to get it to build an image for the Streak before I can actually test it.
