meta: set S from UNPACKDIR in recipes that use only local files

2025-06-20T11:07:26+00:00

There is no need to have two assignments; also setting S from UNPACKDIR (and not vice versa) is more logical as unpack task comes first, and tasks that come after unpack use S to access unpack results. Also adjust reference test data in selftest/recipeutils to reflect changes in test recipes.

meta/meta-selftest: Fix variable assignment whitespace

2025-02-01T13:42:34+00:00

Recipes are much more readable with whitespace around the assignment operators. Fix various assignments in OE-Core to show this is definitely the preferred formatting. (From OE-Core rev: 30ea609d3357fb3de911f2f6a5e6856c151b976a) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

recipes: Switch away from S = WORKDIR

2024-05-21T11:08:04+00:00

Where recipes use S = ${WORKDIR}, change them to set UNPACKDIR to a subdir of WORKDIR and make S point at this instead. I've chosen not to force S into any standard UNPACKDIR we may pick in future just so the S = UNPACKDIR case is clearly visible by the directory naming under WORKDIR as that should aid usability.

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: Add kernel specific STRIP variable

2023-06-19T12:18:56+00:00

strip can be coming from binutils or from llvm in some cases llvm-strip can fail on kernel Subprocess output:aarch64-yoe-linux-llvm-strip: error: Link field value 28 in section .rela.dyn is not a symbol table This helps in selecting which strip is used when building kernel (From OE-Core rev: 03973c8c1c93ddb1c8e05b773bfcc45aed73a99f) Signed-off-by: Khem Raj Cc: Bruce Ashfield Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

kernel: Add kernel specific OBJDUMP

2023-03-01T21:29:31+00:00

This helps in switching toolchains cleanly for kernel build between gcc and clang Currently, some kernels allow building with clang but not all the distro might use clang as default system compiler but kernel may demand gcc which is provided via KERNEL_* variables, however kernel does use OBJCOPY at places during build and it maybe set to use llvm objcopy when using clang. That should be a deliberate setting when clang is used for kernel as well, otherwise it should use binutils provided objcopy (From OE-Core rev: 17b409f2fd97894e0943d13c2cb0d52abde647e3) Signed-off-by: Khem Raj Cc: Bruce Ashfield Signed-off-by: Alexandre Belloni Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

make-mod-scripts: Ensure kernel build output is deterministic

2023-01-29T10:50:42+00:00

The definitions in linux-kernel-base are needed to ensure the generated headers are consistent. This was a small step that was missing from the previous changes to linux-kernel-base as both kernel-devsrc and make-mod-scripts need this information defined consistently.

bitbake.conf/recipes: Introduce add DEV_PKG_DEPENDENCY to change RDEPENDS:${PN}-dev

2022-06-28T22:49:37+00:00

There is a pattern that several recipes need to break the dependency of ${PN}-dev on ${PN}, most often as ${PN} may be be empty. Add a new variable to parameterise this and allow it to be changed more easily. (From OE-Core rev: a5b381c0f45c590a762647a9956a8f41e2e2315e) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

meta/meta-selftest/meta-skeleton: Update LICENSE variable to use SPDX license identifiers

2022-02-20T16:45:25+00:00

An automated conversion using scripts/contrib/convert-spdx-licenses.py to convert to use the standard SPDX license identifiers. Two recipes in meta-selftest were not converted as they're that way specifically for testing. A change in linux-firmware was also skipped and may need a more manual tweak.

Convert to new override syntax

2021-08-02T14:44:10+00:00

This is the result of automated script conversion: scripts/contrib/convert-overrides.py converting the metadata to use ":" as the override character instead of "_". (From OE-Core rev: 42344347be29f0997cc2f7636d9603b1fe1875ae) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie
