insane.bbclass: use multiprocessing for collecting 'objdump -p' output

2022-02-08T14:20:18+00:00

This was prompted by ltp's unreasonably long package_qa times; it has a massive amount of executables and insane runs objdump for all of them, serially. This reduces the time from 4 minutes to 1m20s on my machine. (From OE-Core rev: fac984b99fdb46949879516cb87153860f402c75) Signed-off-by: Alexander Kanavin Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

spdx: Add set helper for list properties

2022-02-07T10:08:59+00:00

This adds the set helper for list properties to allow list members to be replaced with a new list. This is necessary as it is (currently) the only way to replace the default value for a list member.

prelink: Drop support for it

2022-02-05T12:26:36+00:00

Prelink is being dropped by glibc in 2.36. It already causes issues with binary corruption, has a number of open bugs and is of questionable benefit without disabling load address randomization and PIE executables. We disabled it by default a while back but left people able to use it. We would be unable to maintain it alone without glibc support so remove the remaining pieces.

classes/native: Propagate dependencies to outhash

2022-01-17T11:49:11+00:00

Native task outputs are directly run on the build system during the build after being built. Even if the output of a native recipe doesn't change, a change in one of its dependencies may cause a change in the output it generates (e.g. rpm output depends on the output of its dependent zstd library). This can cause poor interactions with hash equivalence, since this recipe's output-changing dependency is "hidden" and downstream tasks only see that this recipe has the same outhash and therefore is equivalent. This can result in different output in different cases and issues with reproducible builds in parcular (e.g. rpm compression changes for the same content). To resolve this, unhide the output-changing dependency by adding it's unihash to this tasks outhash calculation. Unfortunately, we don't know specifically know which dependencies are output-changing, so we have to add all of them.

package: Add support for kernel stripping

2022-01-13T13:57:26+00:00

Extend runstrip() to accept additional argument to enable sharing it with the kernel do_strip() so that KERNEL_IMAGE_STRIP_EXTRA_SECTIONS can be passed. Since is_elf() understands kernel modules there is no need to keep a seperate list for kernmodules or hardcode the values to runstrip.

patch.py: Initialize git repo before patching

distutils is going away and we have functionality in bitbake which can handle these comparisions so switch to the bb.utils function. (From OE-Core rev: fe624b520e6c75e16a8f394785ab0216341402f9) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

oe/utils: by default cap cpu_count() to 64 cores

2021-11-25T21:55:10+00:00

Larger systems may have large numbers of cores, but beyond a certain point they can't all be used for compiling: whilst purely compute-intensive jobs can be parallelised to hundreds of cores, operations such as compressing (needs lots of RAM) or compiling (lots of I/O) don't scale linearly. For example, the Marvel ThunderX2 has 32 cores, each capable of executing four threads, and can be configured with two sockets, making 256 CPUs according to Linux. Zstd using 256 threads has been seen to fail to allocate memory during even small recipes such as iso-codes. Add a default cap of 64 CPUs to the cpu_count() method so that extreme parallisation is limited. 64 is high enough that meaningful gains beyond it are unlikely, but high enough that most systems won't be effected.
