xen, xen-tools: add recipes for new stable Xen 4.15 release

2021-04-19T02:30:52+00:00

The recipes are introduced as the non-default version by adding an expressed PREFERRED_VERSION for 4.14 in: conf/distro/include/meta-virt-default-versions.inc to keep the Xen 4.14 recipes as default for the Hardknott release. Signed-off-by: Christopher Clark Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield

xen, raspi4, linux-yocto-dev: Enable Xen on Raspberry Pi 4

2020-08-11T19:58:37+00:00

Enable linux-yocto-dev as the Linux kernel for Xen on the Raspberry Pi 4, with the bcm-2xxx-rpi4 KMACHINE and KBRANCH. Set a Raspberry Pi SD card variable to increase the size of the boot partition to accommodate both the kernel and the Xen hypervisor. Signed-off-by: Christopher Clark Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield

xen, linux-raspberrypi4: remove linux-raspberrypi bbappends and patches

2020-08-11T19:58:37+00:00

Retiring use of the downstream vendor kernel for use with Xen. Signed-off-by: Christopher Clark Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield

xen, rpi4: use RPI_EXTRA_CONFIG and drop the rpi-config_git.bbappend

2020-08-11T19:58:37+00:00

The GIC that is needed by Xen can be enabled via the rpi-config recipe variable. Fixes the build after the upstream recipe changed recently. Signed-off-by: Christopher Clark Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield

xen: retire the Raspberry Pi sdcard class

2020-08-11T19:58:37+00:00

The sdcard class in the meta-raspberrypi layer is now extensible with support for adding files such as hypervisor binaries to the boot partition, so this layer can switch to use that and drop the custom sdcard bbclass. Uses the new RPI_SDIMG_EXTRA_DEPENDS and DEPLOYPAYLOAD variables, and: IMAGE_CLASS: sdcard_image-rpi-xen => sdcard_image-rpi IMAGE_FSTYPE: rpi-xen-sdimg => rpi-sdimg Please note that the filename suffix of the image is changed by this. Also apply _raspberrypi4-64 scoping to the Raspberry Pi settings. Signed-off-by: Christopher Clark Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield

xen: drop vars that duplicate hvc console from the r-pi4 config

2020-07-20T18:47:15+00:00

These settings are not needed here. Serial configuration is done in the bsp layer. Tested and working on the Raspberry Pi 4. Signed-off-by: Christopher Clark Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield

linux-raspberrypi: prefer kernel version 5.4

2020-07-06T20:25:56+00:00

Aligns with Yocto's current kernel version. Signed-off-by: Christopher Clark Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield

xen, raspberry pi: add Xen-specific SD card class

2020-07-06T20:25:56+00:00

At the moment the regular meta-raspberrypi SD card class does not allow for optional inclusion of extra files in the SD card boot partition without requiring those same files be present in the root filesystem. This affects hypervisor binaries, such as Xen, which do not necessarily belong within the guest filesystem. As a workaround, inherit the sdcard_image-rpi.bbclass and clone the main IMAGE_CMD function, adding the Xen-specific deploy that is needed. This can be retired when the parent class has extensibility added. Signed-off-by: Christopher Clark Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield

xen: apply layer settings when xen DISTRO_FEATURE is enabled

2020-07-06T20:25:55+00:00

These settings are necessary for Xen and enabling them here, using the same mechanism that is used by k8s in this layer, simplifies building images for Xen. - Ensure that Xen mode is enabled in QEMU. - On ARM platforms: enable Flattened Device Tree (FDT) support.
