bitbake: BBHandler/cooker: Implement recipe and global classes

2022-08-12T10:49:29+00:00

We have some confusion for users since some classes are meant to work in the configuration space (or "globally") and some are meant to be selected by recipes individually. The cleanest way I could find to clarify this is to create "classes-global" and "classes-recipe" directories which contain the approproate classes and have bitbake switch scope between them at the appropriate point during parsing. The existing "classes" directory is always searched as a fallback. Once a class is moved to a specific directory, it will no longer be found in the incorrect context. A good example from OE is that INHERIT += "testimage" will no longer work but IMAGE_CLASSES += "testimage" will, which makes the global scope cleaner by only including it where it is useful and intended to be used (images).

bitbake: BBHandler: Make inherit calls more directly

2022-08-12T10:49:29+00:00

Rather than recursing into the conf handler code, simply call into the parse code directly when inheriting files as we've already resolved the paths and don't need anything the other codepath brings. This makes the codepath clearer at the expense of some slight duplication. (Bitbake rev: 0f4f3af6d93a0018df58b8a1d8d423c78ba6526d) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

bitbake: BBHandler: Allow earlier exit for classes not found

2022-08-12T10:49:29+00:00

Rather than relying on later code to error if the class isn't found, exit earlier and more clearly from a code perspective. (Bitbake rev: f7c55c8147329670fd5bc55b1ae3f47f25b89bab) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

bitbake: ConfHandler/BBHandler: Improve comment error messages and add tests

2022-07-04T21:52:36+00:00

Currently if you trigger one of the comment errors, the newline characters are stripped and the line numbers are incorrect. In one case it prints the empty line which is also unhelpful. Rework the code around these errors so the line numbers are correct and the lines in question are more clearly displayed complete with newlines so the user can more clearly see the error. I also added a couple of simplistic test cases to ensure that errors are raised by the two known comment format errors.

bitbake: parse_py: Drop deprecated function reference

2021-09-10T08:26:04+00:00

This is now used from bb.parse everywhere so drop this long deprecated reference. (Bitbake rev: aaa5292ef96ea27f505bc5c5a4b1eb4f497ed061) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

bitbake: data_smart/parse: Allow ':' characters in variable/function names

2021-07-20T17:59:18+00:00

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.

bitbake: logging: Make bitbake logger compatible with python logger

2021-02-10T23:48:16+00:00

The bitbake logger overrode the definition of the debug() logging call to include a debug level, but this causes problems with code that may be using standard python logging, since the extra argument is interpreted differently. Instead, change the bitbake loggers debug() call to match the python logger call and add a debug2() and debug3() API to replace calls that were logging to a different debug level.

bitbake: BBHandler: Don't classify shell functions that names start with "python*" as python function

2021-02-10T23:48:16+00:00

If shell function name starts with 'python' or 'fakeroot' parser wrongly assumes it's python/fakeroot function. [YOCTO #14204] Use regex lookahead assertions to check if 'python' expression is followed by whitespace or '(' and if 'fakeroot' is followed by whitespace.

bitbake: BBHandler: prompt error when task name contain expression

2020-11-08T14:04:42+00:00

Task name contain expresion (eg, do_foo_remove_bar) can cause fatal error. Check for naming before addtask. Prompt with understandable error message when expression found in task name.

bitbake: build: Allow deltask to take multiple tasknames

2020-07-21T15:57:43+00:00

deltask currently supports only one task to delete but it would be useful if it could support a variable which gets expanded to allow flexibility in the metadata. This is simple to support in bitbake and is how other directives such as inherit operate so adjust the parser/code to handle that. It means that syntax like: EXTRA_NOPACKAGE_DELTASKS = "" deltask ${EXTRA_NOPACKAGE_DELTASKS} is now allowed. (Bitbake rev: 883d926120833c85a16dcf60425dd7af7699046a) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie
