libvirt: Changed python bindings install location

2013-04-19T04:39:24+00:00

The libvirt-python files were installed to dist-packages and this is not part of sys.path in yocto so they were not available to python. Changed this to site-packages. Signed-off-by: Mihai Prica Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield

libvirt: use pkgconfig to control udev

2013-04-19T04:36:00+00:00

To ensure that libvirt doesn't rely on detection of udev in the environment or sysroot we can add a PACKAGECONFIG option to control both the enablement of udev support, and ensure that libpciaccess is added as a dependency, otherwise configure detects issues such as this: | checking for UDEV... yes | configure: error: You must install the pciaccess module to build with udev | Configure failed. The contents of all config.log files follows to aid debugging Signed-off-by: Ting Liu Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield

containers - lxc-template: enable chroot + chpasswd functionality for Busybox hosts

2013-04-12T17:17:03+00:00

This patch enables installation of Buysbox containers on Busybox hosts. Please see patch message for detailed information. The patch has been submitted and accepted upstream by LXC maintainers. The functionality hasn't made it to LXC 0.9.0, but will (most probably) be included upstream in future releases of LXC. Signed-off-by: Bogdan Purcareata Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield

lxc: Update LXC recipe to include config examples in main package

2013-04-11T20:07:27+00:00

The patch configures the LXC recipe to include configuration examples or containers in the default package - lxc, not in the documentation one - lxc-doc. By default, bitbake will split a specific package into multiple sections, based on meaning - binaries, libraries, documentation, configs, etc. The sections will then be assembled into individual packages, such as e.g lxc, lxc-doc, lxc-dbg and so on. The packages are mutually exclusive with respect to the sections they contain. LXC installation provides several example configuration files for various usage scenarios. The twist is that LXC build scripts place these config examples in a relative path that is identified by bitbake as belonging to documentation. This patch places these configuration files in the main package, where they normally belong. Signed-off-by: Bogdan Purcareata Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield

lxc: Add disable udhcp patch to LXC recipe

2013-04-11T20:07:22+00:00

The provided patch makes a modification to the LXC busybox template (the template that creates a minimal container with Busybox). This type of container will start the udhcpc service - the DHCP client - on init. For an embedded Linux image, we might assume that the majority of containers will have manual / static networking configuration on start. Considering this, starting the udhcpc service by default is useless, since the service will then has to be killed. The containers that use DHCP for networking can start udhcpc after container boot, or alter the busybox template locally to do so by default. The patch deactivates the default start of the DHCP client on a Busybox container init. Signed-off-by: Bogdan Purcareata Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield
