2013-01-28package.bbclass: remove RRECOMMENDS on base packages for locale packagesAndreas Müller1
As long as we support only one locale package per recipe this leads to unwanted packages in images. This patch was motivated by samba (meta-oe): only wanting libsmbclient one gets full samba server into the image. For my standard image the follwing package were removed by this patch: -acl_2.2.51-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -alsa-states_0.2.0-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -alsa-utils_1.0.25-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -alsa-utils-aconnect_1.0.25-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -alsa-utils-alsaconf_1.0.25-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -alsa-utils-alsactl_1.0.25-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -alsa-utils-alsaloop_1.0.25-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk alsa-utils-alsamixer_1.0.25-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -alsa-utils-alsaucm_1.0.25-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -alsa-utils-amixer_1.0.25-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -alsa-utils-aplay_1.0.25-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -alsa-utils-aseqdump_1.0.25-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -alsa-utils-aseqnet_1.0.25-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -alsa-utils-iecset_1.0.25-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -alsa-utils-midi_1.0.25-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -alsa-utils-speakertest_1.0.25-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -attr_2.4.46-r4_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -avahi_0.6.31-r7.1_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -gtk-engines_2.20.2-r3_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -pulseaudio_2.1-r15_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -samba_3.6.8-r6_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -vte_0.28.2-r5_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk -xz_5.1.2alpha-r0_armv7a-vfp-neon.ipk Strange effect: For samba buildhistory's depends.dot says: -samba -> libc6; -samba -> libgcc1; -samba -> libreadline6; -samba -> libtalloc2; -samba -> libtdb1; -samba -> libwbclient0; -samba -> libz1; -samba -> update_rc_d; -samba_locale_de -> samba [style=dotted]; samba_locale_de -> virtual_locale_de [style=dotted]; -samba_locale_fr -> samba [style=dotted]; -samba_locale_fr -> samba [style=dotted]; This is conflicts to buildhistory's result on samba package not mentioning any changes for samba package.

2013-01-25sstate: Add optimisation for useradd injected dependenciesRichard Purdie1
useradd.bbclass adds sstate dependencies on base-passwd, shadow-native and shadow-sysroot. Due to the way these are injected, they interact badly with the other dependency validation logic and end up pulling in dependencies we don't actually need. This patch adds code to optimise those cases out. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
2013-01-25Split do_packagedata task from do_packageRichard Purdie9
Currently, do_rootfs has a dependency on all the do_package output being present due to its usage of the pkgdata directories. This means that if you run: bitbake xxxx-image -c rootfs you end up having to fetch and unpack all the do_package data which is usually large and inefficient. It also means rm_work has to leave all the do_package data lying around so rootfs works. This patch splits the actual creation of the pkgdata directory off into a separate task, "packagedata" which happens immediately after do_package. We can then remap the dependencies so this task is depended upon, not do_package. Sstate can then be programmed not to require do_package at the appropriate times. Whilst this patch doesn't do so, it opens the possibility of rm_work wiping out the do_package output from WORKDIR as long as it also removed the do_package stamp (both normal and setscene variants) and allowing more space savings with rm_work which has been regularly requested.

2013-01-25cpan_build: Fix cmaker Build.PL module buildsRichard Purdie1
Certain cpan Build.PL based modules were failing to build due to the host's config information being used instead of the targets. This patch sets the appropriate variables to ensure the modules get the correct configuration from the target config_heavy.pl script. It also ensures the linker is CCLD, not LD since the LDFLAGS contain -Wl,XXX options and build failures result if LD is used. libencode-detect-perl is a module which tests this class extensively.

2013-01-24base: make feature backfilling happen earlierRichard Purdie1
Backfilling DISTRO_FEATURES and MACHINE_FEATURES with _append statements happens too late to use those variables with conditional inherits, like this: inherit ${@base_contains('DISTRO_FEATURES','sysvinit','update-rc.d_real','',d)} Instead, do the backfilling at ConfigParse time so that it happens earlier in the parse, which results in that inherit behaving as expected when sysvinit was backfilled.

2013-01-20update-alternatives: Add a build-time dependencyMark Hatle1
We need to add a build time dependency on virtual/update-alternatives, however we can't just do DEPENDS +=, or we end up with various problems. To work around this, in the anonymous python space we ensure we only do the addition when the package does not provide virtual/update-alternatives and it is a target package. Also the system wide PREFERRED_PROVIDER was incorrect. It references a runtime package, and not the recipe it should have. This has been corrected.

2013-01-20package.bbclass: Fix shlibs cross package-arch contaminationRichard Purdie1
I found that if I had two packages architectures built (say core2 and i586), that the shlibs data from i586 was being used in the core2 build. This lead to odd dependency issues if the i586 build was out of date and core2 was being targetted. When loading shlibs files, the last loaded wins so we need to iterate the lists from least to strongest weighting, not the other way around. With this patch applied, the contamination issue is resolved. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
2013-01-20populate_sdk_base.bbclass: Work around bugs with gnu tar < 1.24Jason Wessel1
The gnu tar versions less than 1.24 pose a problem with the SDK extraction. A typical SDK will have hard links. The SDK is created with a newer version of tar but extracted with the host version of tar which may be much older. The specific defect is that older version of gnu tar do not properly handle the "--strip-components=" argument when processing hard links and the paths do not get properly truncated and hooked up with the corresponding real file payloads. This leads to errors like the following during the SDK install: tar: sysroots/qemux86-yocto-linux/usr/bin/getconf: Cannot hard link to `./opt/yocto/SDK-qemux86/sysroots/qemux86-yocto-linux/usr/bin/POSIX_V6_ILP32_OFFBIG': No such file or directory The simple way to work around the problem is to just not save the path information that is going to get chopped off anyway. This has the added benefit that it saves a small amount of space in the tar archive as well.

2013-01-20package.bbclass: replace AUTOINC directly in PKGVEnrico Scholz1
b27b438221e16ac3df6ac66d761b77e3bd43db67 introduced a regression when PKGV is modified by the recipe. E.g. when having something like | PV = "1.7.33+gitr${SRCPV}" | PKGV = "1.7.33+gitr${GITPKGV}" | RDEPENDS_${PN}-subpkg += "${PN} (= ${EXTENDPKGV})" | inherit gitpkgv The resulting core package has | Version: 1.7.33+git234+cd01e8c-r11 and because the subpackage has | Depends: vdr (= 1.7.33+git0+cd01e8c18d494150730214f033f84e5282ce7639-r11) image build fails with | * satisfy_dependencies_for: Cannot satisfy the following dependencies ... | * vdr (= 1.7.33+git0+cd01e8c18d494150730214f033f84e5282ce7639-r11) Patch avoids the 'PKGV = "cleanup(${PV})"' operation and replaces AUTOINC directly within PKGV. This might introduce a regression too when 'AUTOINC' is added to PKGV intentionally but impact is small and can be fixed trivially by using another string.

2013-01-20kernel.bbclass, module-base.bbclass: Use CC to form KERNEL_CCKhem Raj3
kernel compiler is not special and we currently have it so we want to pass -march and -mtune options as CFLAGS to kernel build so that compiler picks the right subarch flags when compiling assembly files in particular. Otherwise defaults are chosen which may not be right in many case e.g. when compiling kernel for collie machine we should use arch=armv4 but it uses toolchain/as defaults which is armv5te in some case e.g. thumb1 we know that kernel can not be compiled in thumb1 mode so we can provide that information e.g. -marm option through KERNEL_HOST_CC_ARCH variable as we do now Signed-off-by: Khem Raj <raj.khem@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
