* bitbake: bitbake-worker/runqueue: Add support for BB_DEFAULT_UMASKRichard Purdie2021-02-161-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently each task has to have a umask specified individually. This is leading to determinism issues since it is easy to miss specifying this for an extra task. Add support for specifing the default task umask globally which simplifies the problem.

* bitbake: sphinx: fixup for linksNicolas Dechesne2020-09-166-160/+160
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since we converted the list of variables into a Sphinx glossary, the automatic conversion from Pandoc does not produce proper links. We fix them up using a Python regexp. Similarly some http links were not converted correctly, and can also be fixed up with a regexp. This patch was generated by running the following regexp: line = re.sub("` <(https?://.*)>`__", "\\1", line) line = re.sub("`+(\w+)`* <#var-bb-\\1>`__", ":term:`\\1`", line) (Bitbake rev: 57300955beb200c81762880f44f1a499451b7432) Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dechesne <nicolas.dechesne@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sphinx has a glossary directive. From the documentation: This directive must contain a reST definition list with terms and definitions. The definitions will then be referencable with the 'term' role. So anywhere in *any* manual, we can do :term:`VAR` to refer to an item from the glossary, and create a link. An HTML anchor is created for each term in the glossary, and can be accessed as: <link>/ref-variables.html#term-<NAME> To convert to a glossary, we needed proper indentation (e.g. added 3 spaces to each line) (Bitbake rev: e8359fd85ce0358019e2a32b4c47ba76613f48f0) Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dechesne <nicolas.dechesne@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
* bitbake: sphinx: initial sphinx supportNicolas Dechesne2020-09-166-0/+5178
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit is autogenerated pandoc to generate an inital set of reST files based on DocBook XML files. A .rst file is generated for each .xml files in all manuals with this command: cd <manual> for i in *.xml; do \ pandoc -f docbook -t rst --shift-heading-level-by=-1 \ $i -o $(basename $i .xml).rst \ done The conversion was done with: pandoc 2.9.2.1-91 (Arch Linux). Also created an initial top level index file for each document, and added all 'books' to the top leve index.rst file. The YP manuals layout is organized as: Book Chapter Section Section Section Sphinx uses section headers to create the document structure. ReStructuredText defines sections headers like that: To break longer text up into sections, you use section headers. These are a single line of text (one or more words) with adornment: an underline alone, or an underline and an overline together, in dashes "-----", equals "======", tildes "~~~~~~" or any of the non-alphanumeric characters = - ` : ' " ~ ^ _ * + # < > that you feel comfortable with. An underline-only adornment is distinct from an overline-and-underline adornment using the same character. The underline/overline must be at least as long as the title text. Be consistent, since all sections marked with the same adornment style are deemed to be at the same level: Let's define the following convention when converting from Docbook: Book => overline === (Title) Chapter => overline *** (1.) Section => ==== (1.1) Section => ---- (1.1.1) Section => ~~~~ (1.1.1.1) Section => ^^^^ (1.1.1.1.1) During the conversion with pandoc, we used --shift-heading-level=-1 to convert most of DocBook headings automatically. However with this setting, the Chapter header was removed, so I added it back manually. Without this setting all headings were off by one, which was more difficult to manually fix. At least with this change, we now have the same TOC with Sphinx and DocBook.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #12399] The bug was to get the BitBake User Manual into the YP Mega-manual. All the changes here create unique tags used with variables in the BitBake Manual. Prior to the fix, tags were identical between like variables in the YP reference manual and the BitBake User Manual. The reason for this is because when I created the BitBake manual's glossary, it was a cut-and-paste operation to get the bulk of the work started. At the time, the BitBake User Manual was not a part of the Mega-manual. Once we decided to include the BitBake User Manual as part of the Mega-Manual, building the mega-manual produced warnings for all these duplicate links. To fix, I have updated the variable tags in the BitBake User Manual to use the following form: 'var-bb-<variable_name>' The tags used in the YP ref-manual follow this form (original): 'var-<variable_name>' (Bitbake rev: fb6de2057aae3fbdf37f007d2e47794b332020e1) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <srifenbark@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | Rendering the manual to its HTML form was collapsing the two leading and four trailing whitespace characters into single whitespace characters. I inserted multiple "&nbsp;" strings to force the spacing to come through.

* bitbake: data: Fix whitespace on _remove operationsRichard Purdie2018-10-181-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have some slightly odd behaviours with the current implementation of _remove operations. For example: TEST = " A B" TEST_remove = "C" would trigger TEST to become "A B" even thought it doesn't contain "C". In particular, this means that an inactive remove operator added in a bbappend could change the task checksum which is not desireable. Fix the operation to preserve whitespace, adding new tests to make this explict and test further corner cases. Also update the manual to match.
