2015-08-24hello-mod: drop PV and PRPaul Eggleton1
* PR = "r0" is the default, no need to set it (and most people won't need to set it anyway with the PR service) * PV = "0.1" is already set by virtue of 0.1 being in the filename Signed-off-by: Paul Eggleton <paul.eggleton@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ross Burton <ross.burton@intel.com>
2015-05-22linux-yocto-custom: clarify bbappend versus copy in commentsBruce Ashfield1
The kernel development manual recommends making a copy of linux-yocto-custom, while the comments in the recipe talk about bbappends. To synchronize the two, we remove the bbappend references from the recipe and instead indicate that a copy should be updated.

2015-03-24skeleton: clarify linux-yocto-custom workflowBruce Ashfield1
It was pointed out that the kernel development documentation recommends making a copy of linux-yocto-custom, while the comments in the recipe itself suggest a bbappend. To keep things consistent between these two sources, we update the comment in the recipe itself to also recommend a copy (and rename).

2014-05-06linux-yocto-custom: provide defconfig guidanceBruce Ashfield1
As reported by Andrea, defconfigs created with savedefconfig should specify their expansion mode as "--alldefconfig' for custom yocto recipes. To ensure that this is documented, we can add a comment in the skeleton recipe.

2014-03-17linux-yocto-custom: Use SRCREV_machineDarren Hart1
The Yocto kernel tools look for SRCREV_machine in do_validate_branches, if it's empty, it just returns and silently continues. This likely needs at least a warning. However, this recipe should be using SRCREV_machine, and not just SRCREV.

2014-01-02Replace one-line DESCRIPTION with SUMMARYPaul Eggleton1
A lot of our recipes had short one-line DESCRIPTION values and no SUMMARY value set. In this case it's much better to just set SUMMARY since DESCRIPTION is defaulted from SUMMARY anyway and then the SUMMARY is at least useful. I also took the opportunity to fix up a lot of the new SUMMARY values, making them concisely explain the function of the recipe / package where possible.

2013-08-20Revert "hello-mod: Ensure the produced package name begins with kernel-module-"Yang Shi1
[YOCTO #4286] The package runtime mapping rename issue is already fixed by commit 0bc564af07c1bae8112f834a60aea3b72af7de13, the "kernel-module-" workaround is not necessary anymore for out-of-tree module package, so revert that commit.

2013-04-13hello-mod: Ensure the produced package name begins with kernel-module-Mark Hatle1
The special key kernel-module- is necessary for the system to avoid a package rename when installing a multilib image. For example: local.conf: IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " hello-mod" bitbake lib32-core-image-minimal The system will translate names and prepend 'lib32-', unless the package begins with kernel-module-.

2012-08-07linux-yocto-custom: Clarify usage and clear COMPATIBLE_MACHINEDarren Hart1
There has been some confusion over proper use of the linux-yocto-custom recipe. It is not intended to build as is from meta-skeleton. It should be modified via a bbappend file to provide a Linux kernel config at the very least. Update the commentary to make this requirement more explicit. Add some additional detail about how to create a bbappend file and how and when to modify the various variables. Clear COMPATIBLE_MACHINE so bitbake will not attempt to build the recipe unless the user explicitly adds there machine to the variable, which should encourage them to read the recipe comments before attempting to build it.

2012-07-03linux-yocto-custom: Remove linux-toolsDarren Hart1
Remove the linux-tools include as perf is now packaged independently. Without this, including meta-skeleton in bblayers.conf results in a build failure as linux-tools.inc cannot be found.

2012-06-18meta-skeleton: add linux-yocto-custom reference recipeBruce Ashfield4
Adding a skeleton/refrence recipe for using a subset of the yocto kernel tools against kernel git repositories. Sample/reference configuration fragments, features and a patch are provided and documented in the recipe. From the recipe itself: Provides an example/minimal kernel recipe that uses the linux-yocto and oe-core kernel classes to apply a subset of yocto kernel management to git managed kernel repositories. Notes: kconfig(s): the kernel must be configured with a defconfig, or via configuration fragment(s). Either of these can be added via bbappend. patches: patches can be merged into to the source git tree itself, added using standard bbappend syntax or controlled via .scc feature descriptions (also via bbappends) example configuration addition: SRC_URI += "file://smp.cfg" example patch addition (for kernel v3.4 only): SRC_URI += "file://0001-linux-version-tweak.patch example feature addition (for kernel v3.4 only): SRC_URI += "file://feature.scc" Warning: Building the sample kernel tree (kernel.org) without providing any configuration will result in build or boot errors. This is not a bug it is a required element for creating a valid kernel. [YOCTO #2397] Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield <bruce.ashfield@windriver.com>
