linux/poky.git/meta/lib/patchtest, branch master

The poky repository master branch is no longer being updated.

2025-11-07T13:31:53+00:00

You can either: a) switch to individual clones of bitbake, openembedded-core, meta-yocto and yocto-docs b) use the new bitbake-setup You can find information about either approach in our documentation: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/ Note that "poky" the distro setting is still available in meta-yocto as before and we continue to use and maintain that. Long live Poky! Some further information on the background of this change can be found in: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2179 Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

patchtest: Use raw strings for regex patterns

2025-10-01T09:52:54+00:00

This fixes several 'SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence' messages printed when running patchtest. Cc: Trevor Gamblin (From OE-Core rev: c585977a6b55db93b7f432280ae4251aa9bc6b6c) Signed-off-by: Paul Barker Signed-off-by: Mathieu Dubois-Briand Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

patchtest: update testdata for selftest

2025-09-18T10:16:35+00:00

The test-patch for test_src_uri_left_files selftest got out of date. This patch updates it to make it apply on the repo again. (From OE-Core rev: 64f1c284256852093027e494c64f1cbe63999e27) Signed-off-by: Gyorgy Sarvari Signed-off-by: Mathieu Dubois-Briand Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

patchtest: ignore patch file metadata from SRC_URI

2025-09-18T10:16:35+00:00

The test_src_uri_left_files check prepares a list of patchfiles SRC_URI from before and after the patch is applied, looking for dangling patches. The name of the files in this list can be incorrect, in case the URI contains some extra metadata (like patchdir), because os.path.basename will use the last portion of the line being processed, which is independent from the files in question. To avoid this, try to use only the first portion of URI, before any extra metadata.

patchtest: fix repo.canbemerged usage

2025-09-18T10:16:35+00:00

Call it like a function to avoid it being interpreted as True always. (From OE-Core rev: df73a692049675b7dc110779b7853f2e79a61737) Signed-off-by: Gyorgy Sarvari Signed-off-by: Mathieu Dubois-Briand Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

patchtest: apply patch in repo root

2025-09-18T10:16:35+00:00

Patchtest tries to apply the received patch on the repository, without specifying the directory, which means that the CWD is used. In case the patch modifies a content in a different folder (e.g. the script is running in ./meta, but the patch modifies ./meta-selftest), the patch will be skipped, but git still returns 0, instead of complaining. To avoid such false positives, specify the working directory for applying the patch - the top of the repodir.

patchtest: don't match BitBake python expansion as GitHub username

2025-09-18T10:16:34+00:00

BitBake's Python expansion syntax looks very similar to GitHub usernames: ${@foo} - which triggers a false alarm from patchtest. This patch adds a negative lookahead to the GitHub username matching pattern: only match in case the pattern doesn't start with "${" characters. Also add a test for it.

patchtest: use HEAD commit as base for the selftest and not master

2024-11-19T12:54:32+00:00

Patchtest applies patches on top of poky master branch by default; this means selftest does the same, and any commits from the branch-under-test are then discarded. This can cause issues for example, if bitbake-server process started by selftest from the master branch tries to parse bitbake.conf from the branch under test: https://valkyrie.yoctoproject.org/#/builders/71/builds/460 (From OE-Core rev: 03c6b2e0277c00faf55c12c4d0b4b5e3a4898f8c) Signed-off-by: Alexander Kanavin Signed-off-by: Mathieu Dubois-Briand Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

patchtest: add "Inactive-Upstream"

2024-11-01T12:58:19+00:00

The list of valid statuses (`upstream_status_literal_valid_status`) was missing "Inactive-Upstream", which caused patchtest to fail the test test_patch.TestPatch.test_upstream_status_presence_format for patches containing lines like: +Upstream-Status: Inactive-Upstream [lastrelease: 2013 lastcommit: 2013] with the error: FAIL: test Upstream-Status presence: Upstream-Status is in incorrect format (test_patch.TestPatch.test_upstream_status_presence_format) "Inactive-Upstream" is documented in the Yocto Project and OpenEmbedded Contributor Guide [1]: Inactive-Upstream [lastcommit: when (and/or) lastrelease: when] The upstream is no longer available. This typically means a defunct project where no activity has happened for a long time — measured in years. To make that judgement, it is recommended to look at not only when the last release happened, but also when the last commit happened, and whether newly made bug reports and merge requests since that time receive no reaction. It is also recommended to add to the patch description any relevant links where the inactivity can be clearly seen. `upstream_status_nonliteral_valid_status` only seems to be used in logging and the value was copied verbatim from the aforementioned documentation. After this change all upstream status options documented in [1] are covered.
