**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Mar 15 02:59:58 2012 Mar 15 05:59:19 Hi Mar 15 08:57:49 argh, why does git send-email ignore my subject? :-( Mar 15 09:00:20 --subject-prefix you mean? Mar 15 09:00:56 I tried with --subject and editing it in --compose. I didn't know about subject-prefix Mar 15 09:49:57 gm Mar 15 10:14:02 which function should i use in a kernel recipe? I wan't copy some file before compiling - is there configure_prepend() working? Mar 15 10:15:25 it's do_configure_prepend() Mar 15 10:26:21 morning all Mar 15 10:26:36 morning Mar 15 10:35:54 good morning Mar 15 10:50:15 morning all Mar 15 10:51:25 Q: if I have a GIT SRC_URI, can I easily make the checkout in work/ to be connected to the remote it was cloned from, and on the master branch? Mar 15 10:51:56 My workflow is that I incrementally develop an application and recipe together. Mar 15 10:52:32 so I iterate over (bitbake myapp -c compile -f; mytest) Mar 15 10:54:34 likewise: you can set something like S_pn-libphone-ui-shr = "/OE/projects/${PN}" in your local.conf to use your "work" checkout somewhere else Mar 15 10:54:58 or you can fix srctree.bbclass from oe-classic to work with sstate and use that Mar 15 10:57:20 jama, I now use "git remote set-url" and "git checkout master" in my configure task Mar 15 10:57:54 jama: just wondered what the easiest approach was, because my approach is recipe-specific Mar 15 10:58:39 srctree Mar 15 11:05:07 JaMa: I think I have a deja vu on this topic :) Mar 15 11:05:43 (deja vu usually means I forget quickly :) ) Mar 15 11:56:46 gm Mar 15 11:57:56 hi Crofton|work Mar 15 12:03:28 likewise, hi Mar 15 12:13:40 hi all Mar 15 12:14:11 * likewise needs to toy with the electricity in house, let's shut it do@$#&@&@##*(& Mar 15 13:19:13 :-D Mar 15 13:35:28 gm Mar 15 14:30:04 Hi, I wonder what Angstrom rootfs I need for my HP iPAQ 214. There is one here but it's out of date http://www.oliford.co.uk/hpipaq214/moinBasicCopy/hpipaq214Downloads.html and it doesn't say what machine it is for (or my ipaq 214 isn't listed on your site). Thanks Mar 15 15:07:42 jsteel_: hmm, didn't realise that machine was supported... interesting Mar 15 15:08:10 jsteel_: we probably ought to try to bring that into meta-handheld, that would allow us to build up-to-date images going forward Mar 15 15:10:00 It's "armv5te" which I think some of the models listed are, but I'm having trouble using the online image builder to test some. Keep getting red crosses by various things Mar 15 15:10:33 yeah that just means those packages haven't been built Mar 15 15:11:34 support for ipaqs in narcissus is probably not very good Mar 15 15:11:53 So is it best to use the old version from that site or is there something I can do to run the latest version? thanks Mar 15 15:13:13 jsteel_: it depends on your level of comfort with OE I suspect... if you're happy to dive in then you can set up OE on your machine and run your own builds Mar 15 15:14:11 Not very comfortable! Would like a rootfs that's basically ready to go. Mar 15 15:25:55 jsteel_: maybe you can coax the author of that site into getting involved again? Mar 15 15:30:37 I sent him an email a while ago but no reply. Maybe I'll try him again! thanks. Mar 15 16:05:24 ok, geheimniss gelueftet Mar 15 16:05:27 oops wrong window Mar 15 16:05:28 :) Mar 15 18:01:20 Hi, can someone help me with patching a kernel, please Mar 15 18:09:02 hello ? Mar 15 18:13:09 No one here ? ? :-( Mar 15 18:13:51 BGU: where are you stuck? it's usually pretty trivial, just add the patch to SRC_URI in the kernel recipe Mar 15 18:14:32 I am patching like this : Mar 15 18:15:13 patch -p0 -i /home/omer/Desktop/e-CAM50_OMAP/Kernel/Patch/e-CAM50_OMAP_GSTIX_linux-omap-psp-2.6.32-r102g.patch Mar 15 18:15:26 and then , make : Mar 15 18:15:40 make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=~/overo-oe/tmp/sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/armv7a/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi- uImage Mar 15 18:16:03 BGU: oh, you're talking about manual patching... that's outside of the scope of this channel really Mar 15 18:17:24 BGU: however I think what you really want to do is to put the patch into the kernel recipe and rebuild the kernel, not try to do it by hand Mar 15 18:19:10 So you mean I patch the kenrnel with that file " XXXXXXXX.patch" Mar 15 18:19:32 BGU: yes, that's correct Mar 15 18:19:34 and the bitbake virtual/kernel, agine ? Mar 15 18:20:05 BGU: yes, you should also increase the PR value Mar 15 18:20:09 in the recipe Mar 15 18:20:42 you mean, so that r102, insted of r-103... okay. Mar 15 18:21:57 BGU: if it was r102 then change it to r103 yes Mar 15 18:23:05 the patch is r102, so I'll downgrade the kernel to 102.. so how do i add path in to the "linux-omap-psp_2.6.32.bb" Mar 15 18:23:59 SRC_URI += "my.patch". However, our patchlevels are usually -p1, not -p0, but I think that can be overridden in the SRC_URI for the patch. Mar 15 18:24:27 SRC_URI += "file://my.patch". Mar 15 18:26:50 ok, Mar 15 18:28:41 BGU: no, the patch has nothing to do with PR, it's just that by increasing it you increase the overall version, thus it will know to rebuild it and the resulting packages will work as an upgrade Mar 15 18:28:44 Thanks, it looks good. I am going to give it TRY. Mar 15 19:09:41 Adding the SRC_URI += "file://my.patch" , Didn't work Mar 15 19:22:28 BGU: you'll need to do SRC_URI += "file://my.patch;pnum=0" Mar 15 19:22:37 since your patch needs -p0 Mar 15 19:24:41 ok Mar 15 19:25:03 I am going to try it now. Mar 15 19:25:35 anyway, thanks for the help ,much appreciated Mar 15 23:27:28 khem, ping? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Mar 16 02:59:58 2012
