qemux86: disable paravirt guest in linux 3.4, causes test failures

2013-05-08T11:01:57+00:00

The shutdown sanity test that we previously saw on qemux86-64 in 2.6.37 have
started to re-appear reproducably on qemux86 in 3.4 in the Danny series.  Until
this can be root-caused and fixed in the kernel, disable paravirtualisation
across all kernels and all qemu machines.

linux-dtb: Add simple DTB symlinks for devicetree

2013-04-23T09:42:59+00:00

* This is similar to the symlinks provided for the kernel image
  in the /boot directory of a file system.  The goal is to have
  simply named symlinks in /boot that mirror the device tree
  name in the kernel sources.  This is so that programs like
  U-Boot can easily find the default device tree binary in the
  /boot directory and use that when booting the kernel.
* Use update-alternatives to handle proper creation and removal
  of the symlinks.

linux-yocto/3.4: perf: parallel build and tools fixes

2012-10-08T15:21:58+00:00

korg commit 42dcd1f4e [perf tools: Fix parallel build] fixes parallel
build issues that are being seen in the autobuilder.

We also have a fix from Tom:

[
    perf annotate: replace 'expand' with equivalent sed expression

    We don't have 'expand' in our userspace so we need to accomplish the
    same thing using 'sed', which we do have.
]

So we apply it to all BSP branches and kernel types.

linux-yocto-tiny: Add tiny recipe for the 3.4 linux-yocto kernel

2012-10-08T08:19:13+00:00

This recipe builds the "tiny" kernel type defined by the linux-yocto
meta-data. Support is defined for the qemux86 machine via
common-pc-tiny.scc in the linux-yocto meta branch. The resulting
kernel is 1.8 MB and boots to a serial console with with qemux86 and
core-image-minimal using the following command:

qemu -kernel tmp/deploy/images/bzImage-qemux86.bin -initrd tmp/deploy/images/core-image-minimal-qemux86.cpio.gz -append "root=/dev/ram0 console=ttyS0" -nographic
