meta-environment: Clean up the task structure to reduce manifest warnings

2017-02-01T18:02:12+00:00

This puts the dependencies on the correct task and removes pointless noexec tasks allowing for a slightly cleaner task structure. (From OE-Core rev: 8b80aee29150fcd50b11dedaab42cdec6e3f222b) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

staging: Reduce the number of mkdirs calls

2017-02-01T18:02:12+00:00

The number of mkdir calls was showing up high on the profile charts since it was getting called once per file which is excessive. Each call results in one or more syscalls which is bad for performance. Cache which directories we've seen to reduce the calls to a more reasonable number and speed up recipe specific sysroots.

sstate/staging: Batch log messages for performance

2017-02-01T18:02:12+00:00

According to profile data, repeated calls to bb.debug and bb.note in the extend_recipe_sysroot() codepath were accounting for 75% of the time (1.5s) in calls from tasks like do_image_complete. This batches up the log messages into one call into the logging system which gives similar behaviour to disabling the logging but retains the debug information. Since setscene_depvalid is also called from bitbake's setscene code, we have to be a little creative with the function parameters and leave the other debug output mechanism in place. This should hopefully speed up recipe specific sysroots. (From OE-Core rev: 3b0af8dc0f796345d1f1ba77ea35bbd090a5feb3) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

xmlto: Don't hardcode the path to tail

2017-01-31T23:47:33+00:00

We don't need to hardcode a path to tail, follow the other tools examples and don't specify a path since PATH is good enough for us. (From OE-Core rev: 1a1e70304932cce5ad194e0a7ebb495da7b24c2e) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

binutils-cross: Remove exec_prefix from the linker search path

2017-01-31T23:47:33+00:00

We don't put target libs into a native/cross ${exec_prefix} but having this in the default search path means all linker scripts have to be relocated. This is a considerable chunk of files to create multiple copies of for no good reason. Instead, patch out the paths we don't need.

distro/defaultsetup: Enable removal of libtool .la files by default

2017-01-31T23:47:33+00:00

Relocation of native .la files during recipe specific sysroot relocation is probably the final straw in just killing these files off. Change things so this class is inherited by default. If distros don't want to do this, they can opt out but it seems like the best thing to do now since .la files aren't needed on Linux.

relocatable: Make native .pc files relocatable

2017-01-31T23:47:33+00:00

The native .pc files currently have hardcoded paths in them meaning each has to be relocated at final install time. pkg-config has built in functionality to avoid this, namely the pcfiledir variable. This function translates .pc files to use the variable meaning further relocation later is unnecessary. (From OE-Core rev: a3f4e9ff55c7d9eba175e83eb6c99cf349a74432) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

utils: Avoid need to relocate wrapper scripts

2017-01-31T23:47:33+00:00

Whilst the path to the executable is dynamically determined, the passed in environment variables or parameters are not relocatable and rely on the sstate remapping code. In the recipe specific sysroot case this has become more costly. This patch translates such paths into relocatable entries which means that a sed replacement at final installation isn't needed.

oeqa/core/context.py: Add validation for run-tests option

2017-01-31T23:27:47+00:00

The run-tests option is optional so if isn't specified set to None instead of crash on split(). (From OE-Core rev: 877732406cad2ee4bf11293dc8ccddc2998ffbaf) Signed-off-by: Aníbal Limón Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie
