2016-02-18alsa-utils: 1.0.29 -> 1.1.0Tanu Kaskinen6
Changelog: http://alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Changes_v1.0.29_v1.1.0 This release introduces two new tools: - alsatplg for converting topology data from text representation to a binary format consumed by the kernel - alsabat; "bat" stands for "basic audio tester" Backported a patch from upstream that renames bat to alsabat. Rebased patch "0001-alsactl-don-t-let-systemd-unit-restore-the-volume-wh.patch". Dropped patches "alsa-utils-aplay-interrupt-signal-handling.patch" and "assume-storing-is-success-if-not-sound-card-device.patch", because the issues have been fixed upstream.

2016-02-18libsdl2: Fix build with static libraries disabledRichard Purdie2
libsdl2 was using foo.o in Makefile dependencies but if libtool is being used then those are the statically linked intermediate files. When static libraries are globally disabled they won't be generated by libtool so the build fails. Instead, use the libtool intermediate wrapper .lo files so the build succeeds.

2016-02-18glew: rewrite to use upstream build systemRoss Burton5
Instead of patching in a whole new build system using autotools, use the makefile-based system in upstream with careful variable assignments so that it cross-compiles correctly. One small patch was required to stop an unavoidable strip. Upstream does have a cmake-based build but it's not used or supported by the maintainer, and is quite buggy (for example: doesn't version the libraries, fails to link to required libraries).

2016-02-16nss: define RPATH variable for nss-nativeMarkus Lehtonen1
Otherwise the nss libs do not get any RPATH/RUNPATH. Consequently, the .so dependencies of nss libs are always searched from the base lib directories of the host (i.e. /lib/ and /usr/lib). This causes problems with nss-native where the .so's should be searched from the base lib directories of the sysroot instead of the host file system. This particular problem has probably been unnoticed as most users are likely to have nss libraries installed on their host system. In this case everything most likely work as expected.

2016-02-15security_flags: Add SECURITY_CFLAGS to TARGET_CC_ARCH for binutilsKhem Raj1
libtool decides to filter out -fstack-protector-strong on its own and its documented here https://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/html_node/Stripped-link-flags.html this causes linking errors when linking libbfd.so since objects (.o) are compiled using -fstack-protector-strong so they are expecting to link with libssp but the option goes missing in linker flags. With this patch the security flags are hoisted upto CC itself and libtool thankfully does not touch CC. Adding to CC also means that we can now remove it from LDFLAGS since when gcc driver is used to do linking then we have LD = CC and this option makes to linker cmdline Since CC is used without CFLAGS in configure tests, some tests fail complaining that -Olevel is not used while using _FORTIFY_SOURCE therefore added SELECTED_OPTIMIZATION to TARGET_CC_ARCH as well Signed-off-by: Khem Raj <raj.khem@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>

2016-02-15buildhistory.bbclass: remove out-dated information on requestPatrick Ohly1
buildhistory.bbclass by design is incremental: each build adds or updates information. Information is never removed. Sometimes it can be useful to reduce the information only to those recipes that were build during a specific bitbake invocation, for example when the invocation does a full world build. This is now possible by setting BUILDHISTORY_RESET as explained in the modified class. The comment on the variable also mentions the caveats associated with using this mode. In this mode, buildhistory.bbclass first moves all existing information into a temporary directory called "old" inside the build history directory. There the information is used for the "version going backwards" QA check. Then when the build is complete and before (potentially) committing to git, the temporary directory gets deleted. Because information that has not changed during the build will be reconstructed during full world rebuilds, a git log will then only show real updates, additions and removals.
