From d02d938cc635de77745d6f287f4222b148b9827d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Henning Schild Date: Fri, 24 Jan 2020 14:48:47 +0100 Subject: lib/oe/path: try hardlinking instead of guessing when it might fail The comparison of the stat st_dev is not enough to judge whether hardlinking will work. One example would be where you try and hardlink across two bind-mounts of a directory. The st_dev will be the same and the operation will still fail. Instead of implementing a check to try and figure out hardlink support just try hardlinking and fall back to a copy when running into an exception.
