**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Apr 04 02:59:58 2013 Apr 04 07:54:09 morning all Apr 04 08:05:33 good morning Apr 04 08:15:59 hi apelete Apr 04 08:26:14 hi silvio Apr 04 09:26:50 hwr, I have a question about your toolchain, I see also an an external-linaro-toolchain.bb Apr 04 11:35:52 hello Apr 04 11:47:54 argh... multilib and gcc-linaro somehow does not match Apr 04 11:48:28 and not due to incompatibilities but looks like not all functions from gcc-common.inc are included Apr 04 11:48:59 is it possible to make oe fetch a specific commit id for a package Apr 04 11:49:21 heeen: yes. use SRCREV for it Apr 04 11:49:49 hrw: like SRCREV_something="deadbeefdeadbeef" ? Apr 04 11:50:08 yes Apr 04 11:50:26 but distro and recipe may override it if set in local config Apr 04 11:52:03 can I also make it checkout to a specific folder or use a local existing checkout Apr 04 11:52:28 without it dumping all the temp stuff and build artifacts there Apr 04 11:59:16 heeen: use externalsrc.bbclass for that Apr 04 11:59:39 heeen: http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#building-software-from-an-external-source Apr 04 12:01:08 ERROR: Error executing a python function in /home/hrw/HDD/devel/canonical/aarch64/openembedded/repos/openembedded-core/meta/recipes-devtools/gcc/libgcc_4.7.bb: Apr 04 12:01:11 NameError: global name 'get_tune_parameters' is not defined Apr 04 12:01:12 argh Apr 04 12:01:17 bluelightning: possible to do in a local conf? Apr 04 12:01:28 or do I really have to modify recipes for temporary testing Apr 04 12:03:27 heeen: you can bbappend them in your own custom layer Apr 04 12:37:41 someone could explain me what is usefull line: TOOLCHAIN_NEED_CONFIGSITE_CACHE += "zlib" Apr 04 13:28:10 I set SRCREV_something but it did not respect it Apr 04 13:36:37 heeen: where did you set that? Apr 04 13:37:00 heeen: and is something the same as in "name=something" in SRC_URI? Apr 04 13:37:40 if name= is not specified in SRC_URI, then just use SRCREV = "value" Apr 04 13:40:37 RP: will you have time to review my ptest patch soon? I sent an update earlier today "[PATCH v3] ptest bug fixes" Apr 04 13:41:57 bluelightning: having a hard time compiling kernel 2.6.36 for the nanonote, could you please take a look at the following log please ? Apr 04 13:41:59 http://paste.debian.net/247241/ Apr 04 13:42:05 it's no rush per se, I just wouldn't want it to sit too long and have to be rushed for the release Apr 04 13:42:25 bluelightning: notice the lines: Apr 04 13:42:25 arch/mips/jz4740/dma.c: In function 'jz4740_dma_chan_irq': Apr 04 13:42:25 arch/mips/jz4740/dma.c:245:11: error: variable 'status' set but not used [-Werror=unused-but-set-variable] Apr 04 13:42:28 cc1: all warnings being treated as errors Apr 04 13:45:49 apelete: hmm, maybe -Werror is set in CFLAGS? Apr 04 13:51:21 bluelightning: that's what I thought, but couldn't find such a flag Apr 04 13:52:25 bluelightning: I looked at the compile log in oe-classisc Apr 04 13:52:58 and didn't find those warnings. Apr 04 13:58:35 apelete: hmm... somehow Werror is leaking into the compiler options Apr 04 13:59:13 apelete: it's possible it was there before as well and the version of gcc being used there didn't enable this specific warning as an error Apr 04 13:59:22 hard to tell without more digging Apr 04 14:06:50 apelete: if you google search for kernel and werror there are many references to this issue though Apr 04 14:13:18 sorry, my VPN connection just died Apr 04 14:13:24 I am seeing this: Apr 04 14:13:31 [FAILED] Failed to start X Server on tty7. Apr 04 14:13:43 root@mx6q:~# cat /proc/cmdline Apr 04 14:13:44 console=ttymxc1,115200 root=/dev/mmcblk0p1 rootwait rw ip=off video=mxcfb0:dev=hdmi,1680x1050M@60,if=RGB24 Apr 04 15:03:23 Does anyone know the status of the open source driver (Linux) for Imagination Technologies PowerVR SGX chips ? Apr 04 15:03:53 is it good, bad, non-existant ? Apr 04 15:05:48 jkroon_: that's the one in the beagle/panda, so you might want to ask those projects Apr 04 15:06:19 bencoh, right. do you know if there are gfx-chips for ARM that do have open source functioning drivers for Linux ? Apr 04 15:06:34 bencoh, i read something about "mali".. Apr 04 15:07:07 mali 400 ? I don't really know which part really is open/working Apr 04 15:07:42 ok Apr 04 15:08:11 you should check the lima status Apr 04 15:08:15 I see there is at least #powervg and #lima here on freenode Apr 04 15:08:28 yeah, will check with them, thanks bencoh Apr 04 15:18:55 what's the correct way to return early from a bitbake shell function? return 0? Apr 04 15:19:34 shell functions get written into a shell script, so it's like any other shell script Apr 04 15:19:38 so yes, return as usual Apr 04 15:19:43 I was trying to skip some steps in a do_configure_prepend() function by putting "return 0" at the beginning Apr 04 15:19:50 the problem with that is Apr 04 15:20:00 if anyone appends after you, you'll be preventing their appended bits from running Apr 04 15:20:09 but it skips all other work done in configure in a recipe.inc file Apr 04 15:20:13 which is why generally it's best to emcompass your logic in an if statement Apr 04 15:20:14 right Apr 04 15:20:21 prepend/append just concatenate Apr 04 15:20:25 they aren't separate functions Apr 04 15:20:29 ah.... Apr 04 15:20:30 it ends up one big do_configure at the end Apr 04 15:20:38 thanks. makes sense now. Apr 04 15:20:40 np Apr 04 15:22:20 hm the kernel module packages depends on the kernel, wouldn't a recommend be better? In our case we have the kernel in raw flash, but since we build some modules, the kernel is pulled into the FS by dependencies.. Apr 04 15:22:42 .. and wasting space on the fs.. Apr 04 15:24:09 roric_: setting RDEPENDS_kernel-base = "" will fix that Apr 04 15:25:04 bluelightning, thanks! Apr 04 15:25:22 np Apr 04 15:26:44 RRECOMMENDS might have been a better choice there, although it wouldn't actually have fixed your problem since the recommendation would still be able to be satisfied (unless you used BAD_RECOMMENDS, but that is currently ipk-only) Apr 04 15:28:11 bluelightning, yep I'm a bit too ipk'ish maybe ;) Apr 04 15:28:51 nothing wrong with selecting ipk :) Apr 04 15:29:20 there's a bug open for implementing BAD_RECOMMENDATIONS for rpm (assigned to me, as it happens) Apr 04 15:29:39 bluelightning, any day soon ;) Apr 04 15:29:47 yep, real soon now :) Apr 04 15:37:43 bluelightning, worked like a charm (RDEPENDS_kernel-base), thanks again Apr 04 15:37:55 great! Apr 04 15:43:29 blindvt: can you point me to some of the patches that were "ignored"? Apr 04 16:32:26 and matchbox-wm_1.2 is the 'stable' version, while _git is the current.. Apr 04 16:32:31 oops Apr 04 16:48:01 moin Apr 04 18:56:02 Would the binary blob PowerVR SGX driver work with a linux kernel + rt-patch ? Apr 04 18:59:03 bluelightning, I think this whole merge-request was "ignored": http://lists.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2013-February/035459.html. Oh wait, it was indeed applied! NM then, sorry. All is well :) Apr 04 19:06:22 jkroon should Apr 04 19:08:57 woglinde, isnt there a chance that the driver does something that ruins realtime performance for the other processes ? Apr 04 19:12:36 jkroon just try it Apr 04 19:13:18 hm shouldn't the qemu.bbclass provider DEPENDS += "qemu-native" Apr 04 20:57:40 can someone tell me what the following warning means ? Apr 04 20:57:41 WARNING: QA Issue: linux-jlime-ben-nanonote: Files/directories were installed but not shipped Apr 04 20:57:42 /lib/modules/2.6.36/kernel Apr 04 20:58:08 means you package created that directory (or file) within it's install location Apr 04 20:58:09 I got it by building a kernel: http://paste.debian.net/247365/ Apr 04 20:58:12 your -recipe- that is Apr 04 20:58:24 but nothing in the FILES_... lists listed that item.. Apr 04 20:58:37 so the system it telling you something that was installed by the 'do_install' rule, was ignored Apr 04 20:58:43 this is usually an error, but not always Apr 04 21:00:18 fray: should I be worried by that or what ? Apr 04 21:03:14 I have no idea what that package done Apr 04 21:03:16 'er.. does Apr 04 21:12:47 ok, thanks (will worry when blows up :) ). Apr 04 21:20:35 fray: could you tell me the difference between "mispel-nf" and "mips32el-nf" for DEFAULTTUNE ? I'm trying to choose one for a mips32 cpu with little endian and soft FPU Apr 04 21:21:32 s/mispel-nf/mipsel-nf/ Apr 04 21:55:31 Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask: I call "switch_root -c /dev/console $RootMount /sbin/init" at the end of my initramfs, but I don't see any "echo" output from my rc scripts, but I do see all of the kernel messages (from loading modules, etc) Apr 04 21:55:42 How do I get the echo output? Apr 04 21:59:39 I see in my initramfs that pid 1 has fds 0,1,2 all pointing to /dev/console open, but not for my /bin/init once I switch_root **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Apr 05 02:59:58 2013
