* bitbake: cooker: Drop support for BB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLYRichard Purdie2024-11-211-12/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY is a very poorly designed interface and is commonly abused. The challenge is that once it is set, by any layer, it applies everywhere. Some layers rely on this to get notification they need to update bbappend files and having the behaviour change from inclusion of an antisocial layer is not good. In addition, showing warnings as an accepted thing on the console devalues them and trains the user to ignore them. I want to steer us away from this mindset. We could extend the functionality and make it apply only to certain layers, or only to certain appends but then we've basically re-invented BBMASK. Given all the above, we should drop support for BB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY and direct anyone with issues to BBMASK instead. https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2029 [YOCTO #14870] (Bitbake rev: fca9c9e3cb6f8e9f99bf51dc5e8a8d83f4c84c69) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>

* bitbake: doc: Add section for variable contextSimone Weiß2024-04-112-0/+92
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is inspired by the same section in the yocto-docs. It aims to provide information in what contexts(recipes, .conf, bbclass,...) a variable is usually used. For that I tried to group similar variables, so that a short overview is given. This was inspired by [YOCTO #14072], but of course does not implement a warning if a variable is used in an unintended context.

* bitbake: fetch2: add Google Cloud Platform (GCP) fetcherEmil Ekmečić2023-08-111-0/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fetcher allows BitBake to fetch from a Google Cloud Storage bucket. The fetcher expects a gs:// URI of the following form: SSTATE_MIRRORS = "file://.* gs://<bucket name>/PATH" The fetcher uses the Google Cloud Storage Python Client, and expects it to be installed, configured, and authenticated prior to use. If accepted, this patch should merge in with the corresponding oe-core patch titled "Add GCP fetcher to list of supported protocols". Some comments on the patch: There is also documentation for the fetcher added to the User Manual. I'm still not completely sure about the recommends_checksum() being set to True. As I've noted in the mailing list, it will throw warnings if the fetcher is used in recipes without specifying a checksum. Please let me know if this is intended behavior or if it should be modified. Here is how this fetcher conforms to the fetcher expectations described at this link: https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/tree/bitbake/lib/bb/fetch2/README a) Yes, network fetching only happens in the fetcher b) The fetcher has nothing to do with the unpack phase so there is no network access there c) This change doesn't affect the behavior of DL_DIR. The GCP fetcher only downloads to the DL_DIR in the same way that other fetchers, namely the S3 and Azure fetchers do. d) The fetcher is identical to the S3 and Azure fetchers in this context e) Yes, the fetcher output is deterministic because it is downloading tarballs from a bucket and not modifying them in any way. f) I set up a local proxy using tinyproxy and set the http_proxy variable to test whether the Python API respected the proxy. It appears that it did as I could see traffic passing through the proxy. I also did some searching online and found posts indicating that the Google Cloud Python APIs supported the classic Linux proxy variables, namely: - https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-python-client/issues/1260 g) Access is minimal, only checking if the file exists and downloading it if it does. h) Not applicable, BitBake already knows which version it wants and the version infomation is encoded in the filename. The fetcher has no concept of versions. i) Not applicable j) Not applicable k) No tests were added as part of this change. I didn't see any tests for the S3 or Azure changes either, is that OK? l) I'm not 100% familiar but I don't believe this fetcher is using any tools during parse time. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

* bitbake: fetch2/git: Prevent git fetcher from fetching gitlab repository ↵Marek Vasut2022-12-091-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | metadata The bitbake git fetcher currently fetches 'refs/*:refs/*', i.e. every single object in the remote repository. This works poorly with gitlab and github, which use the remote git repository to track its metadata like merge requests, CI pipelines and such. Specifically, gitlab generates refs/merge-requests/*, refs/pipelines/* and refs/keep-around/* and they all contain massive amount of data that are useless for the bitbake build purposes. The amount of useless data can in fact be so massive (e.g. with FDO mesa.git repository) that some proxies may outright terminate the 'git fetch' connection, and make it appear as if bitbake got stuck on 'git fetch' with no output. To avoid fetching all these useless metadata, tweak the git fetcher such that it only fetches refs/heads/* and refs/tags/* . Avoid using negative refspecs as those are only available in new git versions. Per feedback on the ML, Gerrit may push commits outsides of branches or tags during CI runs, which currently works with the 'nobranch=1' fetcher parameter. To retain this functionality, keep fetching everything in case the 'nobranch=1' is present. This still avoids fetching massive amount of data in the common case, since 'nobranch=1' is rare. Update 'nobranch' documentation.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Inform the reader that there should be no need for spaces in the value when using removal override `:remove`. Considering why spaces are used in the other override operators, it might seem obvious that they aren't needed for the removal operator. But, it seems like I'm not the first to be confused about this.
