bitbake.conf/package: Collapse PKGDATA_DIR into a single machine specific directory

2013-09-13T16:41:10+00:00

Currently we have a hierarchy of pkgdata directories and the code has to put together
a search path and look through each in turn until it finds the data it needs.

This has lead to a number of hardcoded paths and file globing which
is unpredictable and undesirable. Worse, certain tricks that should be
easy like a GL specific package architecture become problematic with the
curretn search paths.

With the modern sstate code, we can do better and construct a single pkgdata
directory for each machine in just the same way as we do for the sysroot. This
is already tried and well tested. With such a single directory, all the code that
iterated through multiple pkgdata directories and simply be removed and give
a significant simplification of the code. Even existing build directories adapt
to the change well since the package contents doesn't change, just the location
they're installed to and the stamp for them.

The only complication is the we need a different shlibs directory for each
multilib. These are only used by package.bbclass and the simple fix is to
add MLPREFIX to the shlib directory name. This means the multilib packages will
repackage and the sstate checksum will change but an existing build directory
will adapt to the changes safely.

It is close to release however I believe the benefits this patch give us
are worth consideration for inclusion and give us more options for dealing
with problems like the GL one. It also sets the ground work well for
shlibs improvements in 1.6.

classes/buildhistory: avoid mangling names in dot graphs for images

2013-08-16T10:38:24+00:00

We were mangling names here to avoid characters that are invalid for dot
node names, but if you just quote all names that isn't necessary and we
retain the original naming, allowing easy searching of the graph files.

classes/buildhistory: tag last 3 build revisions

2013-08-16T10:37:52+00:00

This makes it easier to obtain the difference from the last three
builds particularly where a single build might account for more than one
commit in the buildhistory git repository (e.g. if package and image
changes occurred).

classes/buildhistory: record size of installed package not compressed archive

2013-08-16T10:37:14+00:00

* usually it's more important to know how much space will each
  package take on target device then size of compressed package
* example for libewebkit0 with 4 different architectures, interesting
  that om_gta02 .ipk is bigger but it's smaller when installed

  before:
  MACHINE     DEFAULTTUNE       SIZE (.ipk file)
  om_gta04    cortexa8t-neon    15996 KiB libewebkit0
  qemux86_64  x86-64            16992 KiB libewebkit0
  spitz       xscale            16148 KiB libewebkit0
  om_gta02    arm920t           16260 KiB libewebkit0

  after:
  MACHINE     DEFAULTTUNE       SIZE (installed)
  om_gta04    cortexa8t-neon    60544 KiB libewebkit0
  qemux86_64  x86-64            63720 KiB libewebkit0
  spitz       xscale            60588 KiB libewebkit0
  om_gta02    arm920t           56268 KiB libewebkit0

classes/buildhistory: remove default of BUILDHISTORY_CHECKVERBACKWARDS

Since this variable is no longer used, we don't need to set a default

buildhistory: use bb.utils.mkdirhier instead of os.makedirs

2013-08-09T14:55:09+00:00

* Multiple do_fetch[prefunc] can happen at the same time and
  if not os.path.exists(pkghistdir):
    os.makedirs(pkghistdir)
  isn't safe
* Use bb.utils.mkdirhier which doesn't raise error when directory exists

2013-08-09T14:55:09+00:00

  error, warning or ignored and also it gets recorded in qa.log

classes/buildhistory: fix error when no packages are installed

2013-06-20T12:10:00+00:00

"xargs -n1 basename" will execute basename even if there are no lines
piped into it, causing a "basename: missing operand" error if no
packages are installed, which will happen for the target portion of
buildtools-tarball.

(xargs' -r option could have been used here, but it is a GNU extension
and I thought it best to avoid that for the sake of future
interoperability).
