package.bbclass: Add CONFFILES to list of package specific variables

2014-11-12T13:16:59+00:00

Changes to CONFFILES should change the sstate checksum. To make that happen,
it needs to be listed in the list of package specific variables, therefore
add it.

classes: tar 1.27 fixes

2013-10-11T22:18:14+00:00

tar version 1.27 returns:

tar: --same-order option cannot be used with -c

with the commandlines we have been using. We can remove the -s option (which
is --same-order) to remove the error.

package.bbclass: Clear umask when using os.mkdir

2013-09-26T15:37:13+00:00

We switched to using os.mkdir with the file creation mode specified as the
second parameter. Python masks this with umask behind the scenes which isn't
what we want, we really want the permissions we specify.

To avoid this we zero the umask beforehand and restore afterwards. Other
solutions are possible but would not perform as well which is why
we're using os.mkdir in the first place.

Martin Jansa deserves the credit for debugging where the problem was.

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.

package.bbclass: skip already-stripped QA test if asked for

2013-09-06T22:55:55+00:00

Some packages like grub have already stripped binaries e.g.

ERROR: QA Issue: File '/boot/grub/kernel.img' from grub was already
stripped, this will prevent future debugging!
ERROR: QA run found fatal errors. Please consider fixing them.

We would like to have a possibility to skip it using something like

INSANE_SKIP_${PN} = "already-stripped"

This adds the logic to do so

it acts at PN level and not at package level. so something like

INSANE_SKIP_${PN}-misc = "already-stripped" wont work.

package.bbclass: Fix darwin shlib handling

2013-09-04T13:11:27+00:00

shlibs dependency calculations on darwin we not functioning correctly, we
need to process the filename without the complete path. If we don't,
"." characters in the path cause problems.

package.bbclass: Fix handling of symlinks in debug packages

2013-08-22T17:30:05+00:00

When copying the sources for the debug source package we use cpio -Ll
which means to copy files as hardlinks and to dereference symlinks.
It appears there is a bug in cpio since -Ll will copy symlinks and
not dereference them. We therefore do a second pass over copied symlinks
resolving them into files. Ideally we would copy these as hardlinks as well
however it doesn't seem worth the extra code and effort for what amounts
to a corner case for a minor space improvement.

This means that the -dbg packages no longer contain broken symlinks.

classes/package: print command output when commands fail

2013-07-02T14:58:10+00:00

When external commands such as debugedit fail, it can be useful to see
their output, so use oe.utils.getstatusoutput() instead of
subprocess.call() to capture this and print it on failure.

package: Ensure we iterate all the pool objects

2013-06-28T09:01:01+00:00

There is the possibility that if we don't iterate through the multiprocessing
pool objects we might not catch return codes and this could lead to hung/zombie
processes either temproarily or on a wider scale. Adding this certainly doesn't
hurt anything and is better practise so we might as well do it.

Its not 100% clear if this fixes some issues or not.
