From 9b3fcb0d91648ae3b53ec8ffcb31fb6eac9209dd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Kanavin Date: Fri, 22 Jul 2022 20:39:16 +0200 Subject: selftest/meta_ide: add a test for running SDK tests directly in a yocto build There's been a recent discussion about how we can make the Yocto SDK experience better [1]. One of the ideas was to eliminate the SDK as a separate artefact altogether and simply provide everything that the SDK and eSDKs do directly in a yocto build. This does not mean that people have to 'learn Yocto', but rather that the integrators should provide a well-functioning sstate cache infrastructure (same as with minimal eSDK, really), and a few wrapper scripts for setting up the build and the SDK environment that run layer setup and bitbake behind the scenes. [1] https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/thoughts_on_the_esdk/90990557 So without further ado, here's how you get a 'SDK' without building one: 1. Set up all the needed layers and a yocto build directory. 2. Run: $ bitbake meta-ide-support $ bitbake -c populate_sysroot gtk+3 (or any other target or native item that the application developer would need) $ bitbake populate-sysroots 3. Set up the SDK environment: . tmp/deploy/images/qemux86-64/environment-setup-core2-64-poky-linux (adjust accordingly) Et voila! The Unix environment is now set up to use the cross-toolchain from Yocto, exactly as in the SDK. And devtool/bitbake are available to extend it, exactly as in the eSDK. Theare are numerous benefits here: no need to produce, test, distribute and maintain separate SDK artifacts. No two separate environments for the yocto build and the SDK. Less code paths where things can go wrong. Less awkward, gigantic tarballs. Less SDK update headaches: 'updating the SDK' simply means updating the yocto layers with git fetch or layer management tooling. Built-in SDK extensibility: just run bitbake again to add more things to the sysroot, or add layers if even more things are required. How is this tested? Exactly same as the regular SDK: $ bitbake -c testsdk meta-ide-support This runs the same toolchain tests from meta/lib/oeqa/sdk/cases as the regular sdk testing does.
