sphinx: import docs
The Yocto Project docs was migrated from Docbook to Sphinx in YP
3.2. This 3.1 is an LTS release, and since 3.1 docs are 'close to'
the docs in 3.2, we agreed to backport sphinx docs onto 3.1.
This first patch brings all changes done in 3.2 until:
7f64574f7 README: include detailed information about sphinx
There are other changes after this commit, but they will be
selectively backported in individual patches.
This patch was generated with the following command:
git cherry-pick -n \
$(git log --reverse --oneline \
ac352ad7f95db7eeacb53c2778caa31800bd7c26..7f64574f7 \
| cut -f1 -d' ')
The following commits were applies in the dunfell docs, but not in
master, so they were first reverted (and squashed into this change). A
commit will reintroduce the content from these patches in the Sphinx
files in a followup patch.
069c27574 Documenation: Prepared for the 3.1.1 release
bd140f0f9 Documentation: Add 3.1.1 version updates missing from previous commit

1 | Moving to the Yocto Project 2.6 Release | ||
2 | ======================================= | ||
3 | |||
4 | This section provides migration information for moving to the Yocto | ||
5 | Project 2.6 Release from the prior release. | ||
6 | |||
7 | .. _migration-2.6-gcc-changes: | ||
8 | |||
9 | GCC 8.2 is Now Used by Default | ||
10 | ------------------------------ | ||
11 | |||
12 | The GNU Compiler Collection version 8.2 is now used by default for | ||
13 | compilation. For more information on what has changed in the GCC 8.x | ||
14 | release, see https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-8/changes.html. | ||
15 | |||
16 | If you still need to compile with version 7.x, GCC 7.3 is also provided. | ||
17 | You can select this version by setting the and can be selected by | ||
18 | setting the :term:`GCCVERSION` variable to "7.%" in | ||
19 | your configuration. | ||
20 | |||
21 | .. _migration-2.6-removed-recipes: | ||

75 | |||
76 | .. _migration-2.6-packaging-changes: | ||
77 | |||
78 | Packaging Changes | ||
79 | ----------------- | ||
80 | |||
81 | The following packaging changes have been made: | ||
82 | |||
83 | - *cmake*: ``cmake.m4`` and ``toolchain`` files have been moved to | ||
84 | the main package. | ||
85 | |||
86 | - *iptables*: The ``iptables`` modules have been split into | ||
87 | separate packages. | ||
88 | |||
89 | - *alsa-lib*: ``libasound`` is now in the main ``alsa-lib`` package | ||
90 | instead of ``libasound``. | ||
91 | |||
92 | - *glibc*: ``libnss-db`` is now in its own package along with a | ||
93 | ``/var/db/makedbs.sh`` script to update databases. | ||
94 | |||
95 | - *python and python3*: The main package has been removed from | ||
96 | the recipe. You must install specific packages or ``python-modules`` | ||
97 | / ``python3-modules`` for everything. | ||
98 | |||
99 | - *systemtap*: Moved ``systemtap-exporter`` into its own package. | ||
100 | |||
101 | .. _migration-2.6-xorg-protocol-dependencies: | ||
102 | |||
103 | XOrg Protocol dependencies | ||
104 | -------------------------- | ||
105 | |||
106 | The ``*proto`` upstream repositories have been combined into one | ||
107 | "xorgproto" repository. Thus, the corresponding recipes have also been | ||
108 | combined into a single ``xorgproto`` recipe. Any recipes that depend | ||
109 | upon the older ``*proto`` recipes need to be changed to depend on the | ||
110 | newer ``xorgproto`` recipe instead. | ||
111 | |||
112 | For names of recipes removed because of this repository change, see the | ||
113 | `Removed Recipes <#migration-2.6-removed-recipes>`__ section. | ||
114 | |||
115 | .. _migration-2.6-distutils-distutils3-fetching-dependencies: | ||
116 | |||
117 | ``distutils`` and ``distutils3`` Now Prevent Fetching Dependencies During the ``do_configure`` Task | ||
118 | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
119 | |||
120 | Previously, it was possible for Python recipes that inherited the | ||
121 | :ref:`distutils <ref-classes-distutils>` and | ||
122 | :ref:`distutils3 <ref-classes-distutils3>` classes to fetch code | ||
123 | during the :ref:`ref-tasks-configure` task to satisfy | ||
124 | dependencies mentioned in ``setup.py`` if those dependencies were not | ||
125 | provided in the sysroot (i.e. recipes providing the dependencies were | ||
126 | missing from :term:`DEPENDS`). | ||
127 | |||
128 | .. note:: | ||
129 | |||
130 | This change affects classes beyond just the two mentioned (i.e. | ||
131 | distutils | ||
132 | and | ||
133 | distutils3 | ||
134 | ). Any recipe that inherits | ||
135 | distutils\* | ||
136 | classes are affected. For example, the | ||
137 | setuptools | ||
138 | and | ||
139 | setuptools3 | ||
140 | recipes are affected since they inherit the | ||
141 | distutils\* | ||
142 | classes. | ||
143 | |||
144 | Fetching these types of dependencies that are not provided in the | ||
145 | sysroot negatively affects the ability to reproduce builds. This type of | ||
146 | fetching is now explicitly disabled. Consequently, any missing | ||
147 | dependencies in Python recipes that use these classes now result in an | ||
148 | error during the ``do_configure`` task. | ||
149 | |||
150 | .. _migration-2.6-linux-yocto-configuration-audit-issues-now-correctly-reported: | ||
151 | |||
152 | ``linux-yocto`` Configuration Audit Issues Now Correctly Reported | ||
153 | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
154 | |||
155 | Due to a bug, the kernel configuration audit functionality was not | ||
156 | writing out any resulting warnings during the build. This issue is now | ||
157 | corrected. You might notice these warnings now if you have a custom | ||
158 | kernel configuration with a ``linux-yocto`` style kernel recipe. | ||
159 | |||
160 | .. _migration-2.6-image-kernel-artifact-naming-changes: | ||
161 | |||
162 | Image/Kernel Artifact Naming Changes | ||
163 | ------------------------------------ | ||
164 | |||
165 | The following changes have been made: | ||
166 | |||
167 | - Name variables (e.g. :term:`IMAGE_NAME`) use a new | ||
168 | ``IMAGE_VERSION_SUFFIX`` variable instead of | ||
169 | :term:`DATETIME`. Using ``IMAGE_VERSION_SUFFIX`` | ||
170 | allows easier and more direct changes. | ||
171 | |||
172 | The ``IMAGE_VERSION_SUFFIX`` variable is set in the ``bitbake.conf`` | ||
173 | configuration file as follows: | ||
174 | :: | ||
175 | |||
176 | IMAGE_VERSION_SUFFIX = "-${DATETIME}" | ||
177 | |||
178 | - Several variables have changed names for consistency: | ||
179 | :: | ||
180 | |||
181 | Old Variable Name New Variable Name | ||
182 | ======================================================== | ||
183 | KERNEL_IMAGE_BASE_NAME :term:`KERNEL_IMAGE_NAME` | ||
184 | KERNEL_IMAGE_SYMLINK_NAME :term:`KERNEL_IMAGE_LINK_NAME` | ||
185 | MODULE_TARBALL_BASE_NAME :term:`MODULE_TARBALL_NAME` | ||
186 | MODULE_TARBALL_SYMLINK_NAME :term:`MODULE_TARBALL_LINK_NAME` | ||
187 | INITRAMFS_BASE_NAME :term:`INITRAMFS_NAME` | ||
188 | |||
189 | - The ``MODULE_IMAGE_BASE_NAME`` variable has been removed. The module | ||
190 | tarball name is now controlled directly with the | ||
191 | :term:`MODULE_TARBALL_NAME` variable. | ||
192 | |||
193 | - The :term:`KERNEL_DTB_NAME` and | ||
194 | :term:`KERNEL_DTB_LINK_NAME` variables | ||
195 | have been introduced to control kernel Device Tree Binary (DTB) | ||
196 | artifact names instead of mangling ``KERNEL_IMAGE_*`` variables. | ||
197 | |||
198 | - The :term:`KERNEL_FIT_NAME` and | ||
199 | :term:`KERNEL_FIT_LINK_NAME` variables | ||
200 | have been introduced to specify the name of flattened image tree | ||
201 | (FIT) kernel images similar to other deployed artifacts. | ||
202 | |||
203 | - The :term:`MODULE_TARBALL_NAME` and | ||
204 | :term:`MODULE_TARBALL_LINK_NAME` | ||
205 | variable values no longer include the "module-" prefix or ".tgz" | ||
206 | suffix. These parts are now hardcoded so that the values are | ||
207 | consistent with other artifact naming variables. | ||
208 | |||
209 | - Added the :term:`INITRAMFS_LINK_NAME` | ||
210 | variable so that the symlink can be controlled similarly to other | ||
211 | artifact types. | ||
212 | |||
213 | - :term:`INITRAMFS_NAME` now uses | ||
214 | "${PKGE}-${PKGV}-${PKGR}-${MACHINE}${IMAGE_VERSION_SUFFIX}" instead | ||
215 | of "${PV}-${PR}-${MACHINE}-${DATETIME}", which makes it consistent | ||
216 | with other variables. | ||
217 | |||
218 | .. _migration-2.6-serial-console-deprecated: | ||
219 | |||
220 | ``SERIAL_CONSOLE`` Deprecated | ||
221 | ----------------------------- | ||
222 | |||
223 | The :term:`SERIAL_CONSOLE` variable has been | ||
224 | functionally replaced by the | ||
225 | :term:`SERIAL_CONSOLES` variable for some time. | ||
226 | With the Yocto Project 2.6 release, ``SERIAL_CONSOLE`` has been | ||
227 | officially deprecated. | ||
228 | |||
229 | ``SERIAL_CONSOLE`` will continue to work as before for the 2.6 release. | ||
230 | However, for the sake of future compatibility, it is recommended that | ||
231 | you replace all instances of ``SERIAL_CONSOLE`` with | ||
232 | ``SERIAL_CONSOLES``. | ||
233 | |||
234 | .. note:: | ||
235 | |||
236 | The only difference in usage is that | ||
237 | SERIAL_CONSOLES | ||
238 | expects entries to be separated using semicolons as compared to | ||
239 | SERIAL_CONSOLE | ||
240 | , which expects spaces. | ||
241 | |||
242 | .. _migration-2.6-poky-sets-unknown-configure-option-to-qa-error: | ||
243 | |||
244 | Configure Script Reports Unknown Options as Errors | ||
245 | -------------------------------------------------- | ||
246 | |||
247 | If the configure script reports an unknown option, this now triggers a | ||
248 | QA error instead of a warning. Any recipes that previously got away with | ||
249 | specifying such unknown options now need to be fixed. | ||
250 | |||
251 | .. _migration-2.6-override-changes: | ||
252 | |||
253 | Override Changes | ||
254 | ---------------- | ||
255 | |||
256 | The following changes have occurred: | ||
257 | |||
258 | - The ``virtclass-native`` and ``virtclass-nativesdk`` Overrides Have | ||
259 | Been Removed: The ``virtclass-native`` and ``virtclass-nativesdk`` | ||
260 | overrides have been deprecated since 2012 in favor of | ||
261 | ``class-native`` and ``class-nativesdk``, respectively. Both | ||
262 | ``virtclass-native`` and ``virtclass-nativesdk`` are now dropped. | ||
263 | |||
264 | .. note:: | ||
265 | |||
266 | The | ||
267 | virtclass-multilib- | ||
268 | overrides for multilib are still valid. | ||
269 | |||
270 | - The ``forcevariable`` Override Now Has a Higher Priority Than | ||
271 | ``libc`` Overrides: The ``forcevariable`` override is documented to | ||
272 | be the highest priority override. However, due to a long-standing | ||
273 | quirk of how :term:`OVERRIDES` is set, the ``libc`` | ||
274 | overrides (e.g. ``libc-glibc``, ``libc-musl``, and so forth) | ||
275 | erroneously had a higher priority. This issue is now corrected. | ||
276 | |||
277 | It is likely this change will not cause any problems. However, it is | ||
278 | possible with some unusual configurations that you might see a change | ||
279 | in behavior if you were relying on the previous behavior. Be sure to | ||
280 | check how you use ``forcevariable`` and ``libc-*`` overrides in your | ||
281 | custom layers and configuration files to ensure they make sense. | ||
282 | |||
283 | - The ``build-${BUILD_OS}`` Override Has Been Removed: The | ||
284 | ``build-${BUILD_OS}``, which is typically ``build-linux``, override | ||
285 | has been removed because building on a host operating system other | ||
286 | than a recent version of Linux is neither supported nor recommended. | ||
287 | Dropping the override avoids giving the impression that other host | ||
288 | operating systems might be supported. | ||
289 | |||
290 | - The "_remove" operator now preserves whitespace. Consequently, when | ||
291 | specifying list items to remove, be aware that leading and trailing | ||
292 | whitespace resulting from the removal is retained. | ||
293 | |||
294 | See the ":ref:`bitbake:removing-override-style-syntax`" | ||
295 | section in the BitBake User Manual for a detailed example. | ||
296 | |||
297 | .. _migration-2.6-systemd-configuration-now-split-out-to-system-conf: | ||
298 | |||
299 | ``systemd`` Configuration is Now Split Into ``systemd-conf`` | ||
300 | ------------------------------------------------------------ | ||
301 | |||
302 | The configuration for the ``systemd`` recipe has been moved into a | ||
303 | ``system-conf`` recipe. Moving this configuration to a separate recipe | ||
304 | avoids the ``systemd`` recipe from becoming machine-specific for cases | ||
305 | where machine-specific configurations need to be applied (e.g. for | ||
306 | ``qemu*`` machines). | ||
307 | |||
308 | Currently, the new recipe packages the following files: | ||
309 | :: | ||
310 | |||
311 | ${sysconfdir}/machine-id | ||
312 | ${sysconfdir}/systemd/coredump.conf | ||
313 | ${sysconfdir}/systemd/journald.conf | ||
314 | ${sysconfdir}/systemd/logind.conf | ||
315 | ${sysconfdir}/systemd/system.conf | ||
316 | ${sysconfdir}/systemd/user.conf | ||
317 | |||
318 | If you previously used bbappend files to append the ``systemd`` recipe to | ||
319 | change any of the listed files, you must do so for the ``systemd-conf`` | ||
320 | recipe instead. | ||
321 | |||
322 | .. _migration-2.6-automatic-testing-changes: | ||
323 | |||
324 | Automatic Testing Changes | ||
325 | ------------------------- | ||
326 | |||
327 | This section provides information about automatic testing changes: | ||
328 | |||
329 | - ``TEST_IMAGE`` Variable Removed: Prior to this release, you set the | ||
330 | ``TEST_IMAGE`` variable to "1" to enable automatic testing for | ||
331 | successfully built images. The ``TEST_IMAGE`` variable no longer | ||
332 | exists and has been replaced by the | ||
333 | :term:`TESTIMAGE_AUTO` variable. | ||
334 | |||
335 | - Inheriting the ``testimage`` and ``testsdk`` Classes: Best | ||
336 | practices now dictate that you use the | ||
337 | :term:`IMAGE_CLASSES` variable rather than the | ||
338 | :term:`INHERIT` variable when you inherit the | ||
339 | :ref:`testimage <ref-classes-testimage*>` and | ||
340 | :ref:`testsdk <ref-classes-testsdk>` classes used for automatic | ||
341 | testing. | ||
342 | |||
343 | .. _migration-2.6-openssl-changes: | ||
344 | |||
345 | OpenSSL Changes | ||
346 | --------------- | ||
347 | |||
348 | `OpenSSL <https://www.openssl.org/>`__ has been upgraded from 1.0 to | ||
349 | 1.1. By default, this upgrade could cause problems for recipes that have | ||
350 | both versions in their dependency chains. The problem is that both | ||
351 | versions cannot be installed together at build time. | ||
352 | |||
353 | .. note:: | ||
354 | |||
355 | It is possible to have both versions of the library at runtime. | ||
356 | |||
357 | .. _migration-2.6-bitbake-changes: | ||
358 | |||
359 | BitBake Changes | ||
360 | --------------- | ||
361 | |||
362 | The server logfile ``bitbake-cookerdaemon.log`` is now always placed in | ||
363 | the :term:`Build Directory` instead of the current | ||
364 | directory. | ||
365 | |||
366 | .. _migration-2.6-security-changes: | ||
367 | |||
368 | Security Changes | ||
369 | ---------------- | ||
370 | |||
371 | The Poky distribution now uses security compiler flags by default. | ||
372 | Inclusion of these flags could cause new failures due to stricter | ||
373 | checking for various potential security issues in code. | ||
374 | |||
375 | .. _migration-2.6-post-installation-changes: | ||
376 | |||
377 | Post Installation Changes | ||
378 | ------------------------- | ||
379 | |||
380 | You must explicitly mark post installs to defer to the target. If you | ||
381 | want to explicitly defer a postinstall to first boot on the target | ||
382 | rather than at rootfs creation time, use ``pkg_postinst_ontarget()`` or | ||
383 | call ``postinst_intercept delay_to_first_boot`` from ``pkg_postinst()``. | ||
384 | Any failure of a ``pkg_postinst()`` script (including exit 1) triggers | ||
385 | an error during the :ref:`ref-tasks-rootfs` task. | ||
386 | |||
387 | For more information on post-installation behavior, see the | ||
388 | ":ref:`dev-manual/dev-manual-common-tasks:post-installation scripts`" | ||
389 | section in the Yocto Project Development Tasks Manual. | ||
390 | |||
391 | .. _migration-2.6-python-3-profile-guided-optimizations: | ||
392 | |||
393 | Python 3 Profile-Guided Optimization | ||
394 | ------------------------------------ | ||
395 | |||
396 | The ``python3`` recipe now enables profile-guided optimization. Using | ||
397 | this optimization requires a little extra build time in exchange for | ||
398 | improved performance on the target at runtime. Additionally, the | ||
399 | optimization is only enabled if the current | ||
400 | :term:`MACHINE` has support for user-mode emulation in | ||
401 | QEMU (i.e. "qemu-usermode" is in | ||
402 | :term:`MACHINE_FEATURES`, which it is by | ||
403 | default). | ||
404 | |||
405 | If you wish to disable Python profile-guided optimization regardless of | ||
406 | the value of ``MACHINE_FEATURES``, then ensure that | ||
407 | :term:`PACKAGECONFIG` for the ``python3`` recipe | ||
408 | does not contain "pgo". You could accomplish the latter using the | ||
409 | following at the configuration level: | ||
410 | :: | ||

412 | PACKAGECONFIG_remove_pn-python3 = "pgo" | ||
413 | |||
414 | Alternatively, you can set ``PACKAGECONFIG`` using an append file | ||
415 | for the ``python3`` recipe. | ||

419 | Miscellaneous Changes | ||
420 | --------------------- | ||
421 | |||
422 | The following miscellaneous changes occurred: | ||
423 | |||
424 | - Default to using the Thumb-2 instruction set for armv7a and above. If | ||
425 | you have any custom recipes that build software that needs to be | ||
426 | built with the ARM instruction set, change the recipe to set the | ||
427 | instruction set as follows: | ||
428 | :: | ||
429 | |||
430 | ARM_INSTRUCTION_SET = "arm" | ||
431 | |||
432 | - ``run-postinsts`` no longer uses ``/etc/*-postinsts`` for | ||
433 | ``dpkg/opkg`` in favor of built-in postinst support. RPM behavior | ||
434 | remains unchanged. | ||
435 | |||
436 | - The ``NOISO`` and ``NOHDD`` variables are no longer used. You now | ||
437 | control building ``*.iso`` and ``*.hddimg`` image types directly by | ||
438 | using the :term:`IMAGE_FSTYPES` variable. | ||
439 | |||
440 | - The ``scripts/contrib/mkefidisk.sh`` has been removed in favor of | ||
441 | Wic. | ||
442 | |||
443 | - ``kernel-modules`` has been removed from | ||
444 | :term:`RRECOMMENDS` for ``qemumips`` and | ||
445 | ``qemumips64`` machines. Removal also impacts the ``x86-base.inc`` | ||
446 | file. | ||
447 | |||
448 | .. note:: | ||
449 | |||
450 | genericx86 | ||
451 | and | ||
452 | genericx86-64 | ||
453 | retain | ||
454 | kernel-modules | ||
455 | as part of the | ||
456 | RRECOMMENDS | ||
457 | variable setting. | ||
458 | |||
459 | - The ``LGPLv2_WHITELIST_GPL-3.0`` variable has been removed. If you | ||
460 | are setting this variable in your configuration, set or append it to | ||
461 | the ``WHITELIST_GPL-3.0`` variable instead. | ||
462 | |||
463 | - ``${ASNEEDED}`` is now included in the | ||
464 | :term:`TARGET_LDFLAGS` variable directly. The | ||
465 | remaining definitions from ``meta/conf/distro/include/as-needed.inc`` | ||
466 | have been moved to corresponding recipes. | ||
467 | |||
468 | - Support for DSA host keys has been dropped from the OpenSSH recipes. | ||
469 | If you are still using DSA keys, you must switch over to a more | ||
470 | secure algorithm as recommended by OpenSSH upstream. | ||
471 | |||
472 | - The ``dhcp`` recipe now uses the ``dhcpd6.conf`` configuration file | ||
473 | in ``dhcpd6.service`` for IPv6 DHCP rather than re-using | ||
474 | ``dhcpd.conf``, which is now reserved for IPv4. | ||
475 | |||
