layer.conf/qemu-system-native: Improve native DISTRO_FEATURE handling

2026-04-28T11:27:58+00:00

OE-Core needs to make some improvements to the way DISTRO_FEATURES is being built but this will break the way meta-virtualization is handling native propagation. Use DISTRO_FEATURES_FILTER_NATIVE which is designed for this. That then means updating the bbappend just to look at DISTRO_FEATURES and to look for both possible values.

vcontainer: add sanity checks and auto-enable virtfs for QEMU

2026-02-09T03:34:12+00:00

Fix virtio-9p (virtfs) support for container-cross-install batch imports which provides ~50x speedup over base64-over-serial. The issue was that native recipes don't see target DISTRO_FEATURES, so qemu-system-native wasn't getting virtfs enabled. Fix by: - layer.conf: Propagate virtualization to DISTRO_FEATURES_NATIVE when vcontainer or virtualization is in target DISTRO_FEATURES - qemu-system-native: Check DISTRO_FEATURES_NATIVE for virtfs enable - container-cross-install: Prepend native sysroot to PATH so vrunner finds the QEMU with virtfs support Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield

vcontainer: add sanity checks and auto-enable virtfs for QEMU

2026-02-09T03:32:52+00:00

Add sanity check that warns when vcontainer distro feature is enabled but BBMULTICONFIG is missing the required vruntime-* multiconfigs. Add qemu-system-native bbappend to auto-enable virtfs (virtio-9p) when vcontainer or virtualization distro feature is set. This is required for the fast batch-import path in container-cross-install.

vcontainer: add SDK-based standalone tarball

2026-02-09T03:32:52+00:00

Add vcontainer-tarball.bb recipe that creates a relocatable standalone distribution of vdkr and vpdmn container tools using Yocto SDK infrastructure. Features: - Auto-detects available architectures from built blobs - Custom SDK installer with vcontainer-specific messages - nativesdk-qemu-vcontainer.bb: minimal QEMU without OpenGL deps Recipe changes: - DELETE vdkr-native_1.0.bb (functionality moved to SDK) - DELETE vpdmn-native_1.0.bb (functionality moved to SDK) - ADD vcontainer-tarball.bb (SDK tarball recipe) - ADD toolchain-shar-extract.sh (SDK installer template) - ADD nativesdk-qemu-vcontainer.bb (minimal QEMU for SDK) Usage: MACHINE=qemux86-64 bitbake vcontainer-tarball ./tmp/deploy/sdk/vcontainer-standalone.sh -d /opt/vcontainer -y source /opt/vcontainer/init-env.sh vdkr images Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield

qemu: adapt to OE-core qemu splitting

2023-08-01T18:42:25+00:00

Since oe-core commit 893846ead7ee54d53 [qemu: Split the qemu package], qemu now has a similar (but different) split to what meta-virt has been providing to vmsep enabled systems. We override the oe-core splitting function to restore our ability to separate functionality into logical groups. This commit also provided RDEPENDS for the new oe-core named packages to allow compatbility with updated images. Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield

global: overrides syntax conversion

2021-08-02T21:17:53+00:00

OEcore/bitbake are moving to use the clearer ":" as an overrides separator. This is pass one of updating the meta-virt recipes to use that syntax. This has only been minimally build/runtime tested, more changes will be required for missed overrides, or incorrect conversions Note: A recent bitbake is required: commit 75fad23fc06c008a03414a1fc288a8614c6af9ca Author: Richard Purdie Date: Sun Jul 18 12:59:15 2021 +0100 bitbake: data_smart/parse: Allow ':' characters in variable/function names It is becomming increasingly clear we need to find a way to show what is/is not an override in our syntax. We need to do this in a way which is clear to users, readable and in a way we can transition to. The most effective way I've found to this is to use the ":" charater to directly replace "_" where an override is being specified. This includes "append", "prepend" and "remove" which are effectively special override directives. This patch simply adds the character to the parser so bitbake accepts the value but maps it back to "_" internally so there is no behaviour change. This change is simple enough it could potentially be backported to older version of bitbake meaning layers using the new syntax/markup could work with older releases. Even if other no other changes are accepted at this time and we don't backport, it does set us on a path where at some point in future we could require a more explict syntax. I've tested this patch by converting oe-core/meta-yocto to the new syntax for overrides (9000+ changes) and then seeing that builds continue to work with this patch.
