* Major layout change to the packages directoryRichard Purdie2010-08-2712-34899/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Having one monolithic packages directory makes it hard to find things and is generally overwhelming. This commit splits it into several logical sections roughly based on function, recipes.txt gives more information about the classifications used. The opportunity is also used to switch from "packages" to "recipes" as used in OpenEmbedded as the term "packages" can be confusing to people and has many different meanings. Not all recipes have been classified yet, this is just a first pass at separating things out. Some packages are moved to meta-extras as they're no longer actively used or maintained.

* qemu-native/powerpc: add qemu 0.12.4 powerpc supportBruce Ashfield2010-07-152-0/+136
| | | | | | | | | | | In order to force 0.12.4 to allow a powerpc system boot, we need a patch to qemu, and a new powerpc (not ppc) ROM. This configuration supports non-graphical booting only, since the ROM does not have support to pass a graphics device via the device tree yet.

* qemu: fix VMware VGA depth calculation errorKevin Tian2010-06-291-0/+115
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | VMware SVGA presents to the guest with the depth of the host surface it renders to, and rejects to work if the two sides are mismatched. One problem is that current VMware VGA may calculate a wrong host depth, and then memcpy from virtual framebuffer to host surface may trigger segmentation fault. For example, when launching Qemu in a VNC connection, VMware SVGA thinks depth as '32', however the actual depth of VNC is '16'. The fault also happens when the host depth is not 32 bit. Qemu <4b5db3749c5fdba93e1ac0e8748c9a9a1064319f> tempts to fix a similar issue, by changing from hard-coded 24bit depth to instead query the surface allocator (e.g. sdl). However it doesn't really work, because the point where query is invoked is earlier than the point where sdl is initialized. At query time, qemu uses a default surface allocator which, again, provides another hard-coded depth value - 32bit. So it happens to make VMware SVGA working on some hosts, but still fails in others. To solve this issue, this commit introduces a postcall interface to display surface, which is walked after surface allocators are actually initialized. At that point it's then safe to query host depth and present to the guest. Signed-off-by Kevin Tian <kevin.tian@intel.com>

* qemu: Work around the crash seen on Ubuntu.Jeff Dike2010-06-231-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Due to different stack contents in sdl_display_init on Ubuntu vs other distros, an uninitialized structure is causing a crash. Zeroing the structure makes the behavior uniform across distros, avoiding the Ubuntu crash, but doesn't fix the underlying bugs, notably: the return value of SDL_GetWMInfo needs to be checked, as it's currently failing silently the underlying reason for the failure of SDL_GetWMInfo needs to be found - there is a GetWMINfo method in the internal SDL structure which is NULL, and the reason for this needs to be found.

* qemu: Fix linking of the native package on Fedora 13Joshua Lock2010-06-151-0/+22
| | | | | | | | | Fedora 13 switched the default behaviour of the linker to no longer indirectly link to required libraries (i.e. dependencies of a library already linked to). Therefore we need to explicitly pass the depended on libraries into the linker for building to work on Fedora 13. Signed-off-by: Joshua Lock <josh@linux.intel.com>
* qemu: Update to 0.12.4Jeff Dike2010-06-077-0/+34582
Renamed the recipe to 0.12.4. Moved the patches directory to qemu-0.12.4 - when it was named qemu-0.12, bitbake silently ignored the patches, and only failed when it came time to apply them. Added a FILESDIR to the git recipe and changed its PV to 0.12.4 so it can use the same patches as the normal recipe for now. Removed the series file - it wasn't needed.
