Sep 02 16:06:11 <Jin^eLD> and I now see that I messed up the first sentence of my question above :) I meant to say "I am trying to compile kernel 5.2.0 for aarch64 in Yocto 2.5.1..."
Sep 02 16:16:58 <Jin^eLD> basically I am looking for a hint where to dig... some forum posts indicated a possible quoting error somehwere in the recipe but that part looks fine, so must be something else
Sep 02 16:33:41 <Jin^eLD> copying kernel* classes from Yocto 2.7 does not help either, so its not the classes.. I am really puzzled
Sep 02 17:02:23 <JaMa> Jin^eLD: I had to backport kernel.bbclass for this fix "kernel: use olddefconfig as the primary target for KERNEL_CONFIG_COMMAND" but other than that linux-yocto 5.0+ was building fine for me in pyro
Sep 02 17:04:12 <Jin^eLD> hmm, so the problem may be totally elsewhere, I wonder what I am missing...
Sep 02 17:04:29 <Jin^eLD> I looked at KERNEL_CONFIG_COMMAND as well and tried a few things there, but did not see any influence
Sep 02 17:06:12 <Jin^eLD> do you think it may be config related? i.e. the step before do_compile?
Sep 02 17:12:12 <Jin^eLD> looked up the commit, yep, tried that already hmm
Sep 02 17:38:58 <Jin^eLD> I think I found it
Sep 02 17:39:13 <Jin^eLD> realpath was missing in hosttools on my 2.5.1 configuration (no idea why, will check)
Sep 02 17:39:45 <Jin^eLD> this caused errors in kernels do_configure, which however were swallowed somehow, the errors happened in scripts/mkmakefile script which is part of the kernel sources
Sep 02 17:39:53 <Jin^eLD> so then the result makefile for do_compile was incorrect
Sep 02 17:40:01 <Jin^eLD> which lead to the "no rule to make" error
Sep 02 17:40:03 <Jin^eLD> heh
Sep 02 17:52:20 <Jin^eLD> I wonder if 5.0 kernels did not use realpath and if thats a new build time dependency
Sep 02 18:05:42 <Jin^eLD> yep, 5.0's scripts/mkmakefile does not use realpath
Sep 02 18:06:32 <Jin^eLD> so for anyone who is backporting kernel 5.2 to an earlier yocto version - check your HOSTTOOLS :) this was not obvious at all
Sep 02 18:07:04 <Jin^eLD> thats'e enough for today, l8r
