perl: Disable builtin memcpy & string inlines with gcc/x86-64-v3

2025-08-18T20:14:07+00:00

PERL built with GCC 15 and -march=x86-64-v3 fails several op/pack.t cases due to aggressive lowering of __builtin_memcpy and inlined/fortified string ops. In pp_pack, some in-place copies can overlap, treating memcpy as non-overlapping yields corrupted bytes (zeros or wrong prefixes). The issue does not reproduce with -march=core2. When using x86-64-v3 memcpy gets emitted very aggressively (vectorized / reordered) and assumes no overlap. The flags force calls through libc (overlap-safe behavior), restoring deterministic pack/unpack and fixing the test failures. Inline functions could be faster in execution but correctness is more important Fixes [YOCTO #15950] (From OE-Core rev: 6d557b16f1e45e616c6eb208e4d7a2f2839a2e4f) Signed-off-by: Khem Raj Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

meta: remove consecutive blank lines

2025-06-20T11:07:27+00:00

Some of them were introduced by mass-removal of S = WORKDIR/git assignments; rather than try to fix up (or redo) just these, I've run this sed command over the whole tree: sed -i -z -E 's/([ \t\f\v\r]*\n){3,}/\n\n/g' `find . -name *.bb -o -name *.inc` The rationale is that more than one empty line is wasting vertical screen space, and does nothing for readability.

recipes: Drop remaining md5sum checksums

2025-05-01T13:22:53+00:00

We have long since obsoleted md5sum in favour of sha256sum. Drop the remaining 56 entries (which were showing many recipes hadn't been touched in a long time). They all do have the corresponding sha256sum entries as is clear from the diff. (From OE-Core rev: 7e4bfcc9706fa8a09f6a0004174a2c3b21c90df3) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie
