2015-04-20base-files: Check for /run and /var/lock softlinks on upgradeBryan Evenson1
Commit ea647cd9eebdc3e3121b84074519c4bb305adac9 moved the locations of /run and /var/lock to match the FHS 3 draft specifications. However, the install doesn't remove the existing directories. As a result, upgrading a system may result in /run as a softlink to /var/run and /var/run as a softlink to /run, creating a circular link. During pre-install, check for the existence of the old softlinks and remove them so the new directories can be installed. Signed-off-by: Bryan Evenson <bevenson@melinkcorp.com>

2015-02-14base-files/profile: change EDITOR to not be busybox specificPaul Gortmaker1
Setting "EDITOR=/bin/vi" breaks on non-busybox systems, as vim will populate /usr/bin/vi instead, and you get stuff like: op3:~/poky/meta-builder$ git commit -s error: cannot run /bin/vi: No such file or directory error: unable to start editor '/bin/vi' Please supply the message using either -m or -F option. op3:~/poky/meta-builder$ which vi /usr/bin/vi op3:~/poky/meta-builder$ Since we've already specified a proper path above in the profile, we've no need to call out where in the path vi lives, and hence this will work with busybox and a full vim install w/o busybox.

2014-07-29base-files: fix up misleading dir grouping names for lsb dirsPaul Gortmaker1
In commit b0df35f47fb79dc149504bd66d1186b3276f9510 ("base-files: Add to make some directories needed by LSB.") there were new groupings of dirs made. But rather than keep the grouping names permissions based as they clearly were, it seems that it was unfortunately misinterpreted as a counter, simply incrementing as a new group was added. This leads to dir3755 getting chmod'd to 0755 and dir4775 being chmod'd to 2775 which to any new reader of the code is terribly confusing. Choose names that clearly reflect the permissions, and add a lsb suffix to indicate the role. Also note that the settings for /var/mail seem incorrect, and so they have been aligned with what is seen in most common distros.

2014-07-29base-files: remove strange 2775 perms from dirs like /homePaul Gortmaker1
Mark Hatle did the historical research into why this was so, and found that it originally was via debian import, and then it morphed over time: <fray> +# chown -R root:root ${D} <fray> +# cd ${D} && chown root:src usr/src <fray> +# cd ${D} && chown root:staff var/local <fray> +# cd ${D} && chown root:staff home <fray> + cd ${D} && chmod 755 `find . -type d` <fray> + cd ${D} && chmod 1777 `cat ${S}/debian/1777-dirs` <fray> + cd ${D} && chmod 2775 `cat ${S}/debian/2775-dirs` <fray> that was the original code <fray> so THAT is why they're 2775.. <fray> they were original 'src' and 'staff'.. which has gotten lost sometime in the last 10 years <fray> AND the origin: <fray> commit b45c9ed40bb4f893f99127a21776aef3ae888ad7 <fray> Author: Chris Larson <clarson@kergoth.com> <fray> Date: Tue Sep 30 16:30:41 2003 +0000 <fray> Add base-files 3.0.10 (from debian). <fray> thats where the brain damage started ...

For hybrid systemd/sysvinit builds, only one fstab can be used. The default fstab used by sysvinit should work fine with systemd. Since virtually every machine will ship its own fstab in its bsp layer, the bsp layer may decide how to override the fstab based on distro features.

2012-09-20Replace "echo -e" with "printf" to have the same behavior in dash or bashAndrei Gherzan1
oe-core removed the prerequisite to have sh as bash. POSIX doesn't define any options and furthermore allows 'echo -e' to be the default behavior. This means that in dash 'echo -e' will actually print '-e' and interpret backslashes by default. We use instead 'printf' builtin command with or without '\n' to simulate 'echo -e' or 'echo -n'. 'printf' needs format while 'echo' can be used without any arguments. So 'echo >' was replaced by 'printf "" >'. 'echo' without '-n' flag adds a new line by default so to keep the same behavior of two new lines while using 'echo "\n"', 'printf "\n\n"' is used.

2012-01-06base-files: filesystems: fix mount orderGary Thomas2
This changes the order that file system [types] are tried when using 'mount' in busybox when the file system type is not explictly specified. The pervious ordering is incorrect in that less capable file system types are tried first, e.g. ext2 before ext3, which will cause an ext3 file system to be mounted as ext2, disabling some of the ext3 features such as journaling. The change also moves infrequently used file system types to the end as checking for them is just a waste of effort in most cases. The list now also includes ext4.

This is a quick audit of only the most obviously wrong licenses found within OECore. These fixes fall into four areas: - LICENSE field had incorrect format so that the parser choked - LICENSE field has a license with no version - LICENSE field was actually incorrect - LICENSE field has an imaginary license that didn't exist This fixes most of the LICENSE warnings thrown, along with my prior commit adding additional licenses to common-licenses and additional SPDXLICENSEMAP entries. HOWEVER..... there is much to be done on the license front. For a list of recipes with licenses that need obvious fixing see: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/License_Audit That said, I would suggest another license audit as I've found enough inconsistencies.

2011-01-28base-files: remove ending colon from default $PATH for root userKevin Tian2
now the PATH for root user defined in a problematic way PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin: from eglibc: /* Two adjacent colons, or a colon at the beginning or the end of `PATH' means to search the current directory. */ that means current directory is always searched as the last path, which could generate undesired behavior. One example is found in LTP cron_deny01 test, which always complains "sh: cron_deny01 not found" cron_deny01 is a shell script which setups the initial test preparation and then invokes itself for real test under a different user: su $TEST_USER1 -c "$0" 'su' doesn't inherit PATH into the sub-shell, and thus $0 has to be an absolute path to have right script found. ltp appends the path of cron_deny01 to $PATH before running the test: export PATH="${PATH}:${LTPROOT}/testcases/bin" In ideal way "${LTPROOT}/testcases/bin/cron_deny01" is found and becomes $0, which works well. However due to the ending colon in original PATH: PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin::${LTPROOT}/testcases/bin $0 becomes 'cron_deny01' w/o leading path which makes sub-shell under 'su' failed to locate cron_deny01. remove ending colon then fixes this problem.

2010-08-27Major layout change to the packages directoryRichard Purdie41
Having one monolithic packages directory makes it hard to find things and is generally overwhelming. This commit splits it into several logical sections roughly based on function, recipes.txt gives more information about the classifications used. The opportunity is also used to switch from "packages" to "recipes" as used in OpenEmbedded as the term "packages" can be confusing to people and has many different meanings. Not all recipes have been classified yet, this is just a first pass at separating things out. Some packages are moved to meta-extras as they're no longer actively used or maintained.
