classes/recipes: Switch to use inherit_defer

2024-01-18T10:15:58+00:00

Now that bitbake supports the use of inherit_defer, switch all conditional (variable based) inherits to use this instead. This leads to more a more deterministic user experience since there is no longer an immediate expansion and later changes to the variables in question (e.g. a bbappend) are accounted for. This patch tries to ensure the behaviour before/after remains as unchanged as it reasonably can, e.g. by always inherting populate_sdk_base. native and nativesdk continue to need to be inherited last, hence being used with inherit_defer in a handful of very specific cases.

kernel.bbclass: add preceding space in appendVar setting

2023-10-30T17:12:19+00:00

The appendVar setting should have a preceding space, otherwise, when KERNEL_MODULE_SPLIT is set to "0", we'll sometimes get dependency error due to lacking of space. (From OE-Core rev: 266cd948d4aa68de34075e8ed6299f7d80d19346) Signed-off-by: Chen Qi Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

kernel.bbclass: Use strip utility used for kernel build in do_package

2023-10-27T07:28:38+00:00

os.environ does not pass this down to runstrip() function and in strip_execs() its using STRIP bitbake variable to find the strip utility to use. Since there might be a trailing whitespace in KERNEL_STRIP remove that otherwise python is not able to launch it. e.g. FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'riscv64-yoe-linux-strip ' This is more evident when STRIP and KERNEL_STRIP are different utilities e.g. when using clang as default toolchain but using gcc+binutils only for kernel build.

kernel.bbclass: Add force flag to rm calls

2023-09-02T10:47:50+00:00

The latest 6.5 kernels do not appear to create the source file in ${D}${nonarch_base_libdir}/modules/${KERNEL_VERSION}/source so the recipe errors out when trying to remove it. Simple fix is to add the -f (force) flag to the call. (From OE-Core rev: 2e669bf797b15d803e7d6a700e449bdc467a4bcc) Signed-off-by: Ryan Eatmon Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

kernel.bbclass: Use KERNEL_STRIP instead of STRIP

2023-08-16T06:54:38+00:00

Kernel uses its own variables KERNEL_* instead of general toolchain env variables, therefore use KERNEL_STRIP here explicitly, Problems happen when using llvm-strip as default STRIP in distro settings, since kernel defaults to using gcc, system does not stage llvm/clang toolchain into kernel's staging sysroot and this function ends up with FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'riscv64-yoe-linux-llvm-strip' (From OE-Core rev: 2db0ef8fe6381c893791ad645748f6e7c8134e5f) Signed-off-by: Khem Raj Cc: Bruce Ashfield Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

kernel: don't fail if Modules.symvers doesn't exist

2023-08-10T08:18:54+00:00

Kernels that do not use modules do not have the Modules.symvers file, which causes the previous one-liner to fail. Invert the logic so that the absence of the Modules.symvers is a passing situation but we still get failure checking on the install operation.

kernel: make LOCALVERSION consistent between recipes

2023-07-25T14:27:33+00:00

The initial fix for localversion setting in 6.3+ broke older recipes and also broke recipes setting localversion in a kernel recipe, as make-mod-scripts (and other locations) can trigger a regeneration of files and don't have access to the variable. Moving the setting of this variable to the global namespace doesn't make sense, so we follow the example of the kernel-abiversion and save a kernel-localversion to the build artifacts. Recipes that may regenerate scripts/dynamic files, must depend on the do_shared_workedir of the kernel and use the helper function to read the file storing the localversion.

kernel: Fix path comparison in kernel staging dir symlinking

2023-07-21T10:52:26+00:00

Due to an oversight in the do_symlink_kernsrc function, the path comparison between "S" and "STAGING_KERNEL_DIR" is broken. The code obtains both variables, but modifies the local copy of "S" before comparing them, causing the comparison to always return false. This can cause the build to fail when the EXTERNALSRC flag is enabled, since the code will try to create a symlink even if one already exists. This patch resolves the issue by comparing the variables before they are modified.

kernel: set HOSTPKG_CONFIG to use pkg-config-native

2023-07-21T10:52:26+00:00

The 5.19 kernel introduced a variable to specify the pkg-config command to use for host tools. Previously to this being introduced, we needed to overrride the standard PKG_CONFIG* variables to avoid calls to pkg-config using the target configuration. While we can't completely drop the PKG_CONFIG workaround, we should introduce the new variable, and prepare to only use it once all supported kernels are 5.19+ (From OE-Core rev: d4b5ea28078cbbf417d95e1b77c6b8c3e9f9e4c0) Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield Signed-off-by: Alexandre Belloni Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

kernel: fix localversion in v6.3+

2023-07-12T15:50:45+00:00

During testing of the v6.4 reference kernel, it was noticed that on-target modules no longer matched the magic value of the running kernel. This was due to a different localversion in the cross built kernel and the scripts / resources created on target. This was due to changes in the setlocalversion script introduced in the v6.3 series. The .scmversion file is no longer used (or packaged) to inhibit the addition of a "+" (through querying of the git status of the kernel) or the setting of a local version. We recently introduced the KERNEL_LOCALVERSION variable to allow recipes to place a value in .scmversion, so we extend the use of that variable to kernel-arch.bbclass and use it to set the exported variable LOCALVERSION. We must do it at the kernel-arch level, as the variable must be exported in any kernel build to ensure that setlocalversion always correctly sets the localversion.
