distro: Add poky-tiny distro definition
Poky-tiny is intended for building very small OS images. The distro definition sets the providers for the kernel and the runtime services. It also reduces the eglibc component list and other DISTRO_FEATURE elements. Signed-off-by: Darren Hart <dvhart@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>

1# Distribution definition for: poky-tiny
2#
3# Copyright (c) 2011, Intel Corporation.
4# All rights reserved.
5#
6# Poky-tiny is intended to define a tiny Linux system comprised of a
7# Linux kernel tailored to support each specific MACHINE and busybox.
8# Poky-tiny sets some basic policy to ensure a usable system while still
9# keeping the rootfs and kernel image as small as possible.
10#
11# The policies defined are intended to meet the following goals:
12# o Serial consoles only (no framebuffer or VGA console)
13# o Basic support for IPV4 networking
14# o Single user ash shell
15# o Static images (no support for adding packages or libraries later)
16# o Read-only or RAMFS root filesystem
17# o Combined Linux kernel + rootfs in under 4MB
18# o Allow the user to select between eglibc or uclibc with the TCLIBC variable
19#
20# This is currently a partial definition, the following tasks remain:
21# [ ] Integrate linux-yocto-tiny ktype into linux-yocto
22# [ ] Define linux-yocto-tiny configs for all supported BSPs
23# [ ] Drop ldconfig from the installation
24# [ ] Modify the runqemu scripts to work with ext2 parameter:
25# runqemu qemux86 qemuparams="-nographic" bootparams="console=ttyS0,115200 root=0800"
26# [ ] Modify busybox to allow for DISTRO_FEATURES-like confiruration
