**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Nov 05 03:00:00 2014 Nov 05 08:23:02 hi. i need to set timezone in a custom yocto distribution. i've added tzdata so that i now have /usr/share/zoneinfo. but it only contains a tiny subset of the available zones (for example, only 3 for europe). how do i install the rest? Nov 05 08:24:12 i see that the tzdata recipe includes packages like tzdata-europe, tzdata-americas, etc, but if i read it correctly they should all be installed with the tzdata package? Nov 05 08:31:57 moin Nov 05 08:34:43 morning all Nov 05 09:05:38 In a package like qemu-native, is it expected to have various references to the sysroot in CFLAGS, LDCLAGS, PKG_CONFIG_PATH, etc? Nov 05 09:09:02 Hi, I made a recipe for a custom kernel module based on the hello-mod exemple, and it fails with "ERROR: QA Issue: Files/directories were installed but not shipped" Nov 05 09:09:49 I tried to disable the QA check (INSANE_SKIP_ = "1") but it deos nothing Nov 05 09:09:50 simonl: yes I would think so - not only will it link to things on the host, it also links to things in the native sysroot Nov 05 09:10:24 hchaumette: the correct way to fix that error is to either delete or package the offending files Nov 05 09:11:21 bluelightning: how do I do that ? Nov 05 09:11:29 hchaumette: http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#qa-issue-installed-vs-shipped Nov 05 09:12:16 thanks Nov 05 09:14:25 simonl: specifically on your problem the course of action will be to either add more -native recipes to the build so that host libs are not being used, or take -native stuff out of it so that they are; either way the objective is to ensure that compatible libs are linked to Nov 05 09:16:00 simonl: in the second case you'd ensure the appropriate headers/libs are installed on your host, then bitbake -c clean the corresponding -native recipes, and then add them to the value of ASSUME_PROVIDED to make the build system skip building them Nov 05 09:18:04 good morning Nov 05 09:18:18 bluelightning: Ok, I'll experiment a little bit with that, thanks :) Nov 05 09:18:34 is there someone who knows something about html5 video support on i.MX6? Nov 05 09:19:34 I am trying to support HTML5 video in QT5 without cairo. I couldn't find anything useful on the internet... Nov 05 10:01:23 ivanstojanovic: Well, there are lots of places you can find out imx6 supported codecs surely? Nov 05 10:02:46 @pev: I got video working using QtGStreamer, so all codecs are there etc etc. The problem I have is HTML5 video support. QtWebKit uses cairo surface for that sake. Nov 05 10:03:36 ivanstojanovic: Ah, OK. I know a fair bit about the imx6 but not a lot about QT/Cairo. I'm an embedded guy more than app level..! :-D Nov 05 10:07:26 @pev: me neither, that's why I ask :) thanks anyway Nov 05 10:10:49 pev: what are working on with the imx6 Nov 05 10:22:39 TobSnyder: A couple of different projects, both headless though Nov 05 10:24:02 I just started with SabreLite Board from Boundary Devices, also headless as I am mostly interested in camera stuff Nov 05 10:38:17 TobSnyder: They're great bits of kit but the distributed freescale BSP uses (IMHO) a horrible v4l hack Nov 05 10:39:02 ok I just started using the official freescale bsp, or at least I am based off that release (3.10.17) Nov 05 10:39:05 they have all their code hacked into v4l intdev which isnt really how it should be done and is messy. Theres a new driver for subdev that was posted a while back but of course doesn't support all the same features as freescales stuff Nov 05 10:39:40 Be aware of the fsl-community-bsp, it's a more workable environment IMO Nov 05 10:40:00 and easier to swap between boundary / fsl / mainline builds Nov 05 10:40:08 I am acutally using fsl-community-bsp but this seems to be based on official freescale release so far Nov 05 10:40:39 Theres a mainline kernel thats community based, IIRC it's linux-fslc perhaps? Nov 05 10:41:11 ok I have to check this, that would mean I could also try community mainline kernel for boundary devices board Nov 05 10:41:29 TobSnyder: I think so, yes Nov 05 10:42:01 OK, so yes linux-fslc is mainline but not supported wheras linux-imx is supported Nov 05 10:42:11 I wll give this a try next time - would be interesting to see if IPU and VPU support is already there Nov 05 10:42:29 Gah, bring back long term stable kernel versions again :-( *grumble* Nov 05 10:45:58 pev: have you already used mainline kernel for imx6 so far? Nov 05 10:46:58 Nope, I was using 3.0.35 for a long time. Only just moving up to 3.10.17 TBH - havent quite got it working fully yet as I have a driver I've together to do basic v4l subdev support Nov 05 10:47:06 its a long and boring story :-D Nov 05 11:02:32 as I am not quite happy with the OV5640 I probably will have to go a similar way when it comes to connect another sensor with the board Nov 05 13:29:06 In an addtask command of a recipe, is it OK to use 'before task1 task2' or should that read 'before task1 before task2'? I am trying to debug some dependency issues and cannot find this shorthand syntax in the documentation. Nov 05 13:35:02 Rootert: AFAIK the first is OK, at least it is in common use Nov 05 13:37:38 bluelightning: OK, thank you. Guess I will have to dig a little deeper then. Nov 05 14:28:44 I have some custom .dts & .dtsi device tree files that I want to use instead of those grabbed during the bitbake Nov 05 14:29:05 I'm using wandboard so I think it's in the linux-wandboard.inc Nov 05 14:29:16 how to override so only my device tree file are used instead the wandboard ones ? Nov 05 14:33:10 mouha: Depends on lots of things - you could put them as an option into the kernel source for kconfig via a patch or if your board uses an unmodified kernel and loads the dt file from an mmc partition you could jsut dunk the file in there Nov 05 14:35:06 pev : the kernel is untouched indeed. Nov 05 14:35:38 what is "in there" as I should point to a local dir that includes my modified dt files ? Nov 05 14:36:25 How are you booting the board, SD? Nov 05 14:36:25 david123 Nov 05 14:36:34 yes Nov 05 14:36:57 ok Nov 05 14:37:17 OK, there are usually two partitions, msdos and fat and IIRC the dtb lives in the msdos partition so you can just copy your updated (and compiled) dt file in there witht the same name and reboot! Nov 05 14:37:36 you mean to write over the sd file Nov 05 14:38:01 well each time I have to build I have to do so Nov 05 14:38:43 I thought that there is a possibility to insert a reference like in the linux-wandboard.inc Nov 05 14:39:13 so bitbake will use them to build the kernel image Nov 05 14:43:21 So you dd the sd image every time? Nov 05 14:43:36 sure, in that case you'd want to insert into the process then, gotcha Nov 05 14:43:42 Should be easy :-) Nov 05 14:44:00 what do you mean ? Nov 05 14:46:17 Let me see if I can find an example Nov 05 14:50:40 Well this is a "better" way of doing it than just bodging it in : https://support.criticallink.com/redmine/boards/45/topics/3892 Nov 05 14:51:46 But you'd probably want to just patch in your own rather than the messing around they describe but its similar Nov 05 14:53:32 yes very similar with a mix of this https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/meta-freescale/2013-July/003436.html Nov 05 14:55:05 with both I should get it done Nov 05 14:56:49 Yep. Like I said, you could just bodge it onto the SD card but doing it the 'right' way is much preferable! Nov 05 14:57:31 and I imagine you'd probably want your own layer / patch(es) for whatever your other customisations will be too. Nov 05 15:00:13 exactly Nov 05 15:00:46 this is not the easy way neither Nov 05 15:01:11 thanks pev Nov 05 15:04:17 mouha: No worries - it should be pretty easy though? Just create a new layer, add a bbappend for the kernel, use quilt to create a new patch, add / edit files, copy back the new patch and amend the bbappend, change the machine conf and you're done. Nov 05 15:04:57 :) Nov 05 15:05:22 piece of cake Nov 05 15:05:37 mouha: This might be of interest too https://community.freescale.com/thread/325219 Nov 05 15:08:10 right this for the SD card direct copy solution Nov 05 15:16:08 mouha: Well, or just quick testing first to build and test your dtb without a full rebuild of the kernel and sd card and dd of image Nov 05 15:17:55 this have been done already, that's why I want to put these files as those my board will always use **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Nov 05 15:22:11 2014 Nov 05 15:55:00 I have a custom layer with CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL += " gstreamer1.0-plugins-imx-meta" Nov 05 15:55:32 now I want to update gstreamer1.0-plugins-imx, but where is defined what version is being used when I just include gstreamer1.0-plugins-imx-meta ? Nov 05 16:04:19 does it select the newest first? I just copied the original recipe to my layer and changed its version in filename and in the file (src rev), now I can see that two layers are offering the package (in different version) Nov 05 16:05:02 They normally will yeah Nov 05 16:06:10 the version in the higher priority layer will be used in preference to the newest if no explicit version preference is specified. that is, if a higher priority layer provides a lower version, it'll be used in preference to the higher version in the lower priority layer Nov 05 16:06:12 TobSnyder: Unless you've set a preferred version yes Nov 05 16:06:27 but beyond that, yes the default is newest, also depending on the values of DEFAULT_PREFERENCE in the recipes themselves Nov 05 16:07:16 how to set prefered version Nov 05 16:07:23 with DEFAULT_PREFERENCE? Nov 05 16:07:39 see the yocto project documentation Nov 05 16:07:47 PREFERRED_VERSION_ = "" Nov 05 16:07:57 in the config metadata Nov 05 16:08:21 ok thanks Nov 05 16:08:43 DEFAULT_PREFERENCE isn't for users, it's set inside recipes, usually to explicitly make something newer not be selected by default, for example bleeding edge scm recipes (e.g. git) Nov 05 20:02:08 RP: Daisy is broken again. Nov 05 20:02:22 RP: the new pseudo has broken some build machines. Nov 05 20:05:31 RP: The backport was done badly and it didn't add attr in depends Nov 05 20:05:39 sgw_: Nov 05 20:46:51 Is there a way in bitbake to have the PV include the revision of the repo containing the bitbake file? Nov 05 21:35:42 hi, I'm building a custom linux image for a rasp pi, and I'm wondering if someone can explain to me the best way to manipulate the SD card partitions? Nov 05 21:36:10 I have a 32 GB SD card, but most of the space is currently unpartitioned Nov 05 21:37:24 Ideally I'd like to do the partitioning in yocto instead of having to repartition and grow the partition after the image is burned & the pi is running Nov 05 21:38:27 and I'd also prefer to NOT rewrite the meta-raspberrypi/classes/sdcard_image-rpi.bbclass, IMAGE_CMD_rpi_sdimg() function Nov 05 21:41:41 anyone, anyone? Bueller? Bueller? Nov 06 02:00:06 Hello, I was wondering if someone might know how to solve a problem with "Function failed: do_package_qa"?
