2012-08-19kernel.bbclass: Preserve generated headersKhem Raj1
asm/unistd.h includes asm/unistd_64.h on x86_64 and asm/unistd_32.h on i386 but these files are generated files in 3.4 and when we do 'make clean' they get deleted and it shows up as an error when building external modules. May be its a 3.4 kernel bug may be not but make clean should have left the tree in a shape to build modules but it does not. Probably we should run make modules_prepare after having run make clean.

2012-08-15kernel.bbclass: remove default module_autoload and module_conf valuesBruce Ashfield1
kernel.bbclass is a common class for many different kernel versions, and as such the default module_autoload and module_conf values that it contains are not relevant, or out of date for most builds.

2012-07-26kernel bbclass: Recreate uImage only when KEEPUIMAGE != "yes"Koen Kooi1
The intent of the uImage code in this class includes the following 1) be able to specify custom load addresses without needing to patch the kernel 2) add better information to the uImage description field The current state is a NOP anyway, the kernel will always build a uImage when you tell it to 'make uImage'. weakly Set KEEPUIMAGE to 'yes' in default-distrovars.inc which preserve the current OE-Core behavior. Machines which are being ported from oe.dev and need to regenerate uImage can set this to be empty Signed-off-by: Koen Kooi <koen@dominion.thruhere.net> Signed-off-by: Khem Raj <raj.khem@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Saul Wold <sgw@linux.intel.com>

2012-07-09kernel.bbclass: add non-santized kernel providesBruce Ashfield1
If the kernel version string uses characters or symbols that need to be santized for the package name, we can end up with a mismatch between module requirements and what the kernel provides. The kernel version is pulled from utsrelease.h, which contains the exact string that was passed to the kernel build, not one that is santized, this can result in: echo "CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="\"MYVER+snapshot_standard\" >> ${B}/.config <build> % rpm -qp kernel-module-uvesafb-3.4-r0.qemux86.rpm --requires update-modules kernel-3.4.3-MYVER+snapshot_standard % rpm -qp kernel-3.4.3-myver+snapshot-standard-3.4-r0.qemux86.rpm --provides kernel-3.4.3-myver+snapshot-standard = 3.4-r0 At rootfs assembly time, we'll have a dependency issue with the kernel providing the santizied string and the modules requiring the utsrelease.h string. To not break existing use cases, we can add a second provides to the kernel packaging with the unsantized version string, and allowing the kernel module packaging to be unchanged. RPROVIDES_kernel-base += "kernel-${KERNEL_VERSION}" % rpm -qp kernel-3.4.3-myver+snapshot-standard-3.4-r0.qemux86.rpm --provides kernel-3.4.3-MYVER+snapshot_standard kernel-3.4.3-myver+snapshot-standard = 3.4-r0 Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield <bruce.ashfield@windriver.com>
2012-07-04kernel: Add kernel headers to kernel-dev packageDarren Hart1
[YOCTO #1614] Add the kernel headers to the kernel-dev package. This packages what was already built and kept in sysroots for building modules with bitbake. Making this available on the target requires removing some additional host binaries. Move the location to /usr/src/kernel Before use on the target, the user will need to: # cd /usr/src/kernel # make scripts This renders the kernel-misc recipe empty, so remove it. As we use /usr/src/kernel in several places (and I missed one in the previous version), add a KERNEL_SRC_DIR variable and use that throughout the class to avoid update errors in the future. Now that we package the kernel headers, drop the kernel_package_preprocess function which removed them from PKGD. All *-sdk image recipes include dev-pkgs, so the kernel-dev package will be installed by default on all such images.

2012-06-21recipes-kernel: make perf a standalone packageLiang Li1
perf has been coupled to the kernel packages via kernel.bbclass. While maintaining the build of perf out of the kernel source tree is desired the package coupling has proved to be awkward in several situations such as: - when a kernel recipe doesn't want to build/provide perf - when licensing of dependencies would prohibit perf and hence the kernel from being built. To solve some of these problems, this recipe is the extraction of the linux-tools.inc provided perf compilation into a standalone perf recipe that builds out of the kernel source, but is otherwise independent. No new functionality is provided above what the linux-tools.inc variant provided, but the separate recipe provides baseline for adding new functionality.

2012-06-21kernel: save $kerndir/tools and $kerndir/lib from pruningBruce Ashfield1
The kernel source tree in the sysroot has all unecessary source code removed. The existing use case is to support module building out of the sysroot, but as more toolsa are moved into the kernel tree itself there are new use cases for the kernel sysroot source. To avoid putting dependencies on the kernel, and to be able to individually build and package these tools out of the source tree, we can save $kerndir/tools and $kernddir/lib from being removed. This enables tools like perf to be built our of the kernel source in the sysroot, without significantly increasing the amount of source in the sysroot.

2012-05-30Revert "meta: replace os.popen with subprocess.Popen"Richard Purdie1
This reverts commit e83d8e58a6b107eea87df0ec233a1bc932b2c6e as the conversion is not correct. Its replacing readlines() calls which generate an array with what are effectively strings. There are split("\n") calls missing in many cases so this needs to be reverted until it gets fixed.
2012-05-30meta: replace os.popen with subprocess.PopenRobert Yang1
Replace os.popen with subprocess.Popen since the older function would fail (more or less) silently if the executed program cannot be found There are both bb.process.run() and bb.process.Popen() which wraps the subprocess module, use it for simplifying the code. Note: We don't need the "2>/dev/null" or "2>&1" since bb.process.run() can handle it, it will raise exception when error occurs, we should handle the exception ourselves if we want to ignore the error.

2012-04-24{kernel, module}.bbclass: don't run depmod for module packages during do_rootfsAndreas Oberritter1
* depmod already gets executed by pkg_postinst_kernel-image. * If you build a module using module.bbclass, pkg_postinst returns 1 in do_rootfs, causing pkg_postinst to run again on first boot. To improve this situation, I copied pkg_postinst from kernel.bbclass to module.bbclass. This was rejected by Koen, because he doesn't like the code from kernel.bblcass, which uses ${STAGING_DIR_KERNEL}. Richard then suggested that calling depmod during do_rootfs wasn't necessary at all, because it already gets done by kernel-image.

2011-07-22kernel: copy defconfig to {B} vs {S}Bruce Ashfield1
For kernel's that use a split source/object build the copy of defconfig to {S} in the base kernel class is problematic. The previous solution for this was to override the do_configure of the base kernel class in a subclass. While this is still a viable/valid option, it does mean that changes to the base do_configure will be missed. The solution to this is to copy a defconfig to {B} which is typically the same as {S}, so most kernel recipes won't see or care about this change. With this change in place, linux-yocto.bbclass can drop its override of do_configure. Tested with linux-yocto and oe linux recipes. Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield <bruce.ashfield@windriver.com>
