* linux-yocto: respect FILESPATH directoriesBruce Ashfield2012-03-131-4/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During the work to enhance the ability to specify out of tree kernel features, an assumption was made about PN being part of a patch path. This assumption is incorrect, since patches can be anywhere in the valid FILESPATH. To make locating the patches in WORKDIR simple, we can just query patch.bbclass and return both the absolute directory of the patch and the subdirectory as it was specified on the src_uri.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The steps in do_kernel_checkout modify the source tree in WORKDIR. If it is called multiple times, or interrupted, the tree is left in an inconsistent state. This change adds protections around branch names, and around the manipulations of directories to ensure that it is safe to call at any point.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Not all users of the checkout phase of linux-yocto have all branches present. This is normal, and should be supported. By checking for an empty KBRANCH we can avoid validating a branch that isn't supposed to exist.

* linux-yocto: improve checkout error handling and reportingBruce Ashfield2012-02-241-23/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The typical workflow for linux-yocto simply uses a remote upstream repository (Whether it is mirrored or not), and in this case there are no issues with consistency in the format of the resository that is unpacked into the WORKDIR. When working with a local linux-yocto repository for kernel development the remote vs local branches is not always consistent between repositories. The suggested/documented workflow has always been to use a bare clone of linux-yocto, and use a second working tree repository for development. Changes flow from the working tree to the bare clone and then into the working directory for build. A common mistake that happens with this workflow is that the non-bare, working repository is used instead of the bare clone version. If a non-bare repository is reference by the SRC_URI, then the branches that are fetched into WORKDIR are not consitent. If the MACHINE and META branches are not present, cryptic build errors will result. To solve this problem, the checkout code has been changed in several ways: - works with a newly proposed 'bareclone' option to bitbake - detects if a bareclone is present in WORKDIR or not and adjustst the checkout accordingly. - if a non-bare clone is detected, machine and meta branches are checked. If they are not present, or can't be created a clear error message is produced - instead of manipulating the refs directly in the git tree, local tracking branches are (quietly) created for remote branches. Enabling a better workflow in the WORKDIR kernel repository. This has been tested with linux-yocto remote upstreams, local bare and non-bare respositories. All builds succeed or fail with clear error messages.

* linux-yocto: locate and use out of tree features specified on the SRC_URIBruce Ashfield2012-02-081-0/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | In a similar manner to calling the patch.bbclass to locate patches that were listed on the SRC_URI, it is also useful to query about 'other' items that are on the SRC_URI. In the case of linux-yocto, it allows us to know about kernel features that were specific on the URI and then apply them to the current tree.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To support larger out of tree kernel features and enhanced patching schemes, this changeset modifies the linux-yocto patching routines to call the recently factored out 'src_patches' routine. Using the returned list of local URIs for all valid patches, the logic can then determine whether or not patches can be used in place, or need to be migrated and have re-usable kernel features created. The results are then fed to the existing infrastructure to be applied and commited to the tree.

* kernel-yocto: support allnoconfig base configurationBruce Ashfield2011-12-021-2/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When creating a minimal config or creating a hard baseline for incremental changes, it is often desired to disable all kernel options and then begin building and enabling only what is required. To support this workflow, a new variable KCONFIG_MODE is introduced to contain a hint to the kernel configuration about how the kernel config should be produced. This variable is passed directly to lkc when it is invoked during configuration, so the contents of the variable must be a valid option for the kernel config build. Additionally, when a defconfig is detected, allnoconfig is enabled as the default operation, unless otherwise specified by KCONFIG_MODE.

* linux-yocto: simplify kernel configuration check expressionBruce Ashfield2011-09-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | kernel configuration validation takes place between two files. An unprocessed configuration file (which is all the options found in the various configuration fragments) and the final .config produced by the lkc. The unprocessed configuration file's name historically is based on the name of the branch that was used to build the BSP. But with the ability to map machine names to arbitrary branches, this is no longer always true. Searching for the pattern *-config-* in the meta subdirectory will only match the config file, and frees the config validation phase from being concerned with what branch was used to build the BSP.

* linux-yocto: generalize kernel config search patternBruce Ashfield2011-09-051-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After constructing a kernel configuration file it then needs to be located in the tree so it can be audited against the final .config. The previous string that was used for the search pattern contains the kernel version. If the recipe space kernel version and internal tree version are out of sync, this will cause the constructed config to not be found. By removing the version from the search string, we can still find out config and gracefully adapt to minor version skew.

* kernel: copy defconfig to {B} vs {S}Bruce Ashfield2011-07-221-6/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For kernel's that use a split source/object build the copy of defconfig to {S} in the base kernel class is problematic. The previous solution for this was to override the do_configure of the base kernel class in a subclass. While this is still a viable/valid option, it does mean that changes to the base do_configure will be missed. The solution to this is to copy a defconfig to {B} which is typically the same as {S}, so most kernel recipes won't see or care about this change. With this change in place, linux-yocto.bbclass can drop its override of do_configure. Tested with linux-yocto and oe linux recipes.

* linux-yocto: streamline BSP bootstrappingBruce Ashfield2011-02-091-61/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to build BSPs that were not already integrated into the upstream linux yocto kernel AND keep the git fetcher happy, some fairly complex anonymous python sections were required. These sections cause problems with variable expansion and SRCREV processing. With the updated git fetcher code, we can streamline the BSP boostrapping process and drop 99% of the anonymous python code. This commit has the following changes to support BSP boot strapping and simplication for existing BSPs. - KMETA is set per-recipe rather than in python code - undefined machines are no longer used, but instead common branch names are set per-recipe - fallback machine SRCREVs are present in the default revisions file - A new variable YOCTO_KERNEL_EXTERNAL_BRANCH should be set in the local.conf for new BSPs instead of being programatically determined in the anonymous python. - No more explicity KMACHINE variable expansion and manipulation, since the tools and build phases no longer require it due to the per-recipe fallbacks. Integrated/merged BSPs are unaffected by the changes and have been regression tested.

This model works well when using the git repo outside of a build system since the commands can be simply invoked and will do something useful. However, it does mean that you can't have two BSPs that differ only by configuration, building out of a single branch in the repository. This means that you must have many branches for very similar BSPs. This model is still preferred, but having the choice of branching strategies is better.

To further faciliate this switch, the branch names no longer need to be shortened in the KMACHINE mappings, but can be fully specified and the tools/processing adapt as required.

* yocto-kernel: factor common routes, update to 2.6.37 and branch renamingBruce Ashfield2010-12-101-0/+202
In order to extend and create more kernel recipes based on the supported yocto kernel common routines need to be placed in re-usable blocks. To accomplish this meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto_git.bb is broken into three parts: - meta/classes/kernel-yocto.bbclass: contains common routines for checking out and configuring a yocto kernel git repository. This should be inherited by recipes that need this functionality. - meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto.inc: Contains the machine mappings, compatibility, build directives and common task definitions for a yocto kernel based recipe. This inherits kernel-yocto, and is the typical point of entry for other recipes. - meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linuux-tools.inc: tasks and function definitions for kernel recipes that want to build/export perf It also updates the linux-yocto recipe to default to 2.6.37. As part of the update to 2.6.37 the branch naming and conventions have been modified to show inheritance, and be more generic. For example: master meta yocto/base yocto/standard/arm_versatile_926ejs yocto/standard/base yocto/standard/beagleboard yocto/standard/common_pc/atom-pc yocto/standard/common_pc/base yocto/standard/common_pc_64 yocto/standard/fsl-mpc8315e-rdb yocto/standard/intel_atom_z530 yocto/standard/intel_core_qm57_pch yocto/standard/mti_malta32_be yocto/standard/preempt_rt/base yocto/standard/preempt_rt/common_pc yocto/standard/preempt_rt/common_pc_64 yocto/standard/preempt_rt/intel_atom_z530 yocto/standard/preempt_rt/intel_core_qm57_pch yocto/standard/qemu_ppc32 yocto/standard/routerstationpro In this structure: master: tracks the mainline kernel meta: meta information for the BSPs and kernel features yocto/base: baseline kernel branch yocto/standard/base: 'standard' kernel, contains features and configs for all BSPs yocto/standard/<machine>: represents a BSP with specific features or configurations The tools, tree and libc-headers have all been updated to deal with this new structure. Also in addition to dealing with the new structure, they continue to work with the existing tree and will adapt at runtime to the differences. The linux-yocto-stable_git.bb recipe continues to build the 2.6.34 based tree,and linux-yocto_git.bb builds 2.6.37. As boards are enabled for the new kernel they will move from -stable to the development kernel. As of now, only the emulated targets have moved to 2.6.37-rcX Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield <bruce.ashfield@windriver.com>
