**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Aug 26 02:59:59 2015 Aug 26 08:34:41 morning all Aug 26 08:40:18 morning bluelightning Aug 26 08:40:37 hi nrossi Aug 26 09:45:16 any ideas about how to do locking in bitbake? Aug 26 09:46:29 I'm writing a bitbake class that is using a resource that can't be shared. I need other recipes that would use the same resource to wait until the resource is available again. Aug 26 10:03:17 ipuustin: if you are defining a function you can use the lockfiles varflag Aug 26 10:04:03 bluelightning: hmm. thanks. need to investigate this. Aug 26 10:04:34 ipuustin: e.g. from meta/classes/rootfs_rpm.bbclass: do_rootfs[lockfiles] += "${DEPLOY_DIR_RPM}/rpm.lock" Aug 26 10:05:11 ok, so file-based locking Aug 26 10:08:04 that might well do the trick Aug 26 10:32:58 there's a related question: can I make a task run regardless of previous successes/failures? Aug 26 10:33:51 I mean, if I in one task reserve the resource, I need to make sure I release it at the end. Aug 26 10:41:13 ipuustin: well, the code associated with the lockfiles varflag will lock and unlock the file for you, so I'm not sure that's an issue Aug 26 10:41:38 ipuustin: you can make a task run every time by setting the nostamp varflag on it Aug 26 10:41:47 (if that's what you want) Aug 26 10:49:51 ok! Aug 26 15:59:26 is there a way to run toaster "offline" Aug 26 15:59:56 so I y sdr demo you all hate at booths, but I'd like to be able to run toaster against the build for people to show toaster Aug 26 16:00:09 to show how the image is built Aug 26 16:01:32 toaster has two modes, isn't one of them for analysis of an existing build? Aug 26 16:01:35 * kergoth yawns Aug 26 16:21:22 kergoth, I'm not sure Aug 26 16:21:37 trying to motivate someone to think for me :) Aug 26 16:22:05 I do want to figure out how to tie a demo of something built with OE into one of the tools Aug 26 16:25:17 pretty sure toaster's analysis mode will do the job just fine, but it'll behave differently than it does when using it to do a build, so the demo would be different Aug 26 16:25:27 that said, i have very, very little experience with toaster Aug 26 16:25:34 me too Aug 26 16:25:59 I just them to be able to show the build output and how you can explore the image Aug 26 16:26:09 I suppose I should fire up toaster when I am home Aug 26 16:44:22 K, re-submitted some fetch fixes and the newly simplified git shallow mirror tarball support to the bitbake list, if anyone wants to play with the latter. http://patches.openembedded.org/bundle/kergoth/fetch-bugfixes/ and http://patches.openembedded.org/bundle/kergoth/fetch-git-shallow-mirror-tarballs/, http://patches.openembedded.org/patch/101691/ describes the usage. Aug 26 16:48:11 * kergoth gets back to trying to fix up the usb g_ether config on his beaglebone black Aug 26 16:49:08 bluelightning: ooh, bitbake-layers show-recipes -i image .. nice. Aug 26 16:49:19 kergoth: :) Aug 26 16:49:20 didn't see that patch go by, good stuff Aug 26 16:49:26 you can thank rburton for the idea Aug 26 16:51:03 Hmm, should add a single-line formatting option to show-recipes and similar commands, column separated, for easier consumption from shell, eventually Aug 26 16:51:33 yeah that could be useful Aug 26 17:01:49 full of good ideas, me! ;) Aug 26 18:38:05 RP: any issues with the bitbake deltask patch? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Aug 27 02:59:58 2015
