**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Oct 31 02:59:58 2018 Oct 31 03:11:32 New news from stackoverflow: PCIe link down on R-Car Salvator-xs Yocto AGL Oct 31 07:57:53 hi #yocto, what is the general way to build an image for a NOR device with UBIFS? I want several partitions in one output file. I know I could do it via multiubi, but I don't find a example or something like that... Maybe someone has an example for me? Oct 31 07:59:46 silviof: have you looked through the included wic scripts (a.k.a wks files)? Oct 31 08:00:56 good morning Oct 31 08:07:22 LetoThe2nd: Is wks also for UBIFS systems? My understanding is that UBIFS will handle this stuff for me? But Yeaah - can use wks to get the same approach. Thanks LetoThe2nd! Oct 31 08:08:05 silviof: good luck Oct 31 08:30:16 I have custom task in recipe, but for some reason WORKDIR is not accessible to it. Is there anything which needs to be added Oct 31 08:42:33 New news from stackoverflow: How to get memory address of the FileDescriptor of mmap() function in Linux, for Video4Linux Oct 31 09:23:33 has "sdcard" been removed from possible IMAGE_FSTYPES in sumo? Oct 31 09:25:13 varjag: sdcard has never been an "official" IMAGE_FSTYPE anyways Oct 31 09:25:43 varjag: some bsps used it for their own custom output formates, namely fsl, and i thing rpi too Oct 31 09:25:48 s/thing/think/ Oct 31 09:26:09 oh i see, yes am on fsl Oct 31 09:26:17 thanks Oct 31 10:26:39 do we still need to limit joining? is that spam flood over now? Oct 31 10:26:51 * rburton_ thought it was quiet in here then realised he hadn't joined Oct 31 10:28:04 RP: good point by gunnar on the yocto list, why doesn't the mirror have mpfr-4.0.1.tar.xz in Oct 31 10:28:28 RP: fallout from migration to the new ab cluster, not pushing to the mirror? Oct 31 12:04:33 if I have to packages that wants to use the same group, do I need to create that group with "extrausers" instead of "useradd"? Oct 31 12:04:40 two packages... Oct 31 12:29:17 right, I need RDEPENDS... Oct 31 13:22:45 Is it posible to ask the archiver to only archive source that is actually present on the target ? Oct 31 13:23:30 COPYLEFT_RECIPE_TYPES = 'target' kind of works but also includes packages that are not installed on the target image Oct 31 13:25:15 example: when building perl, the perl-ptest package is built and it depends on db Oct 31 13:25:39 so you end up having the sources for db (which has the sleepycat license) Oct 31 13:45:44 abelloni: turn off ptest? Oct 31 13:45:59 arguably the archiver is doing the right thing: the sources needed to rebuild Oct 31 13:48:16 rburton: this is on my list for next week with halstead when he's here... Oct 31 13:49:05 abelloni: you really need to filter the sources by the list of things installed into a given rootfs for that Oct 31 13:49:41 the issue the being the staically linked libraries Oct 31 13:49:54 s/the/then/ Oct 31 13:50:38 abelloni: that would make it interesting. Perhaps the license of anything statically linked needs to be tweaked? Oct 31 13:54:24 I would think we have all the information but it didn't seem trivial to have it all at one time Oct 31 14:41:02 rburton, the patches for master-next I just sent passed nightly Oct 31 14:41:12 armpit: thanks Oct 31 15:25:40 abelloni: you could argue the license of things with static linked code is currently potentially wrong :/ Oct 31 17:03:23 I'm trying to use devtool modify against the kernel and when it fails, the log indicates a work directory that no longer exists... The failure seems to indicate that the work directory didn't get populated with all of my files/folders from SRC_URI. Has anyone else run into this? (using rocko) **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Oct 31 18:13:30 2018 Oct 31 20:34:50 I’ve been using Yocto from my home directory. Is this the preferred method or is it wiser to install it in a common location like /usr/local or /opt or something? Are projects that use Yocto usually so closely tied to a specific branch or tag that it makes the most sense to clone poky for each project? Oct 31 20:35:43 I'm just trying to get a sense of how most people handle this. Oct 31 20:36:32 peniwize: FWIW, I would recommend using home Oct 31 20:37:41 I suppose if I'm building in Docker then it may be easiest to prepare a working directory that contains poky, for each project, since symbolic links don't seem to work well with Docker. Oct 31 20:38:40 JPEW: Are you aware of any gotchas as a result of installing poky to a common location? Oct 31 20:39:10 peniwize: sharing TMPDIR between users is problematic due to file ownership Oct 31 20:39:48 assuming of course there is more than one user, maybe there isn't going to be in your case Oct 31 20:41:09 peniwize: What bluelightning said. I don't know of anything in particular, other than the gotchas you would have trying to put the source code from any other project in one of those locations Oct 31 20:42:01 I'm the only user, but I have multiple projects that all use the same version of poky. I'm also doing production builds in Docker to ensure consistency and it seems that I have to prepare a working directory for Docker that can't use symbolic links. I could use a hard link, but I'd rather not. Oct 31 20:44:14 peniwize: you can use symbolic links, they just need to still be valid within the container - they can't point to a path that is not valid inside it Oct 31 20:44:14 JPEW: bluelightning: Ok, so one other unrelated question: how do you typically handle local.conf? I've been keeping one in version control and linking to it from from build/conf. Is this unwise? I need to ensure consistency of production builds so local.conf never changes. Oct 31 20:45:08 bluelightning: Right. I do have some container only links that are working, but it failed when I tried to link to another directory (for obvious reasons, I guess). Oct 31 20:45:21 peniwize: you can version control it, but really the less custom stuff you have in it the better Oct 31 20:46:08 peniwize: i.e. you shouldn't use it in place of a custom distro config Oct 31 20:47:48 Can I put most things that are in local.conf into my primary recipe file? I've read that some settings have to be in local.conf. I haven't made a BSP yet. Is this where most of my unchanging local.conf settings should be located? Oct 31 20:51:18 peniwize: It really depends on the value. It can be difficult to divine if something should go in local.conf, distro.conf, machine.conf, or the recipe file :) Oct 31 20:52:10 JPEW: Ok. Sounds like I'll have to figure it out over time with more experience. Oct 31 20:52:40 well, there are numbers of variables that cannot be practically set in a recipe, basically anything that needs to affect more than one recipe Oct 31 20:53:09 peniwize: if you're in doubt feel free to ask here Oct 31 20:54:20 bluelightning: JPEW: Thanks. This channel has been a great help. Oct 31 22:00:12 I'm currently using linux 4.4.3. How do I upgrade the kernel on yocto to something like linux 4.15? Or alternatively can I upgrade just a driver while keeping the rest of the linux yocto at a previous version?
