bitbake: prserv/serv: Improve error message when prserver cannot bind to supplied host address
If localhost resolves to a remote address (due to a misconfigured network), starting the pr server will fail without useful information. To reproduce, add '<bogus ip> localhost' to /etc/hosts and run 'bitbake -p'. The error message will be: ERROR: Timeout while attempting to communicate with bitbake server ERROR: Could not connect to server False: Running 'bitbake-prserv --host=localhost --port=0 --start' will fail with: error: [Errno 99] Cannot assign requested address Since these errors does not show the IP address of the attempted socket binding, this results in a lot of wasted time looking at firewall rules, etc. This patch results in the following error message if the socket binding fails: PR Server unable to bind to <bogus ip>:0 (Bitbake rev: fae5914030bcf4c061c22fc61034c40c87b7121a) Signed-off-by: Konrad Scherer <Konrad.Scherer@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
