This layer holds the Mentor Embedded Linux distro configuration and supplementary files, and acts as a staging area for changes which Mentor Graphics requires, but which have not yet been merged into the upstream layers.
This layer depends on:
URI: git://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core Branch: master
URI: git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-yocto Revision: master
Browse url: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-mentor Clone url: git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-mentor.git
To contribute to this layer you should submit the patches for review to the mailing list.
Mailing list: [email protected]
When sending single patches, please use something like 'git send-email -1 --to [email protected]'
When sending a series, please use poky/meta/scripts/create-pull-request (aka oe-core/scripts/create-pull-request).
-
base-files: issue files
-
netbase: adjusted default interfaces file
-
psplash: mel splash image
-
core-image-base: added package-management
-
e2fsprogs: killed e2fsprogs compat dep on blkid/badblocks
-
archive-release: used to archive up content for release
-
other packagegroups
-
cml1-config class: consistent handling of defconfig -> .config with merge_configs.sh ala busybox & linux-yocto for fragments support
-
kernel-config-lttng - use cml1-config to enable the bits needed by lttng
-
user_features class: easier user manipulation of DISTRO_FEATURES from local.conf
-
buildstats-summary class: using buildstats, show a summary at the end of the build showing how many recipes ran do_populate_sysroot vs do_populate_sysroot_setscene
-
deploy-license-manifest class: this is fairly self explanatory. it deploys the manifest generated by license.bbclass into DEPLOY_DIR via an IMAGE_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND, and also runs a sed script which produces a CSV version of the manifest in DEPLOY_DIR
-
mirrors class: a much simplified, compact version of the upstream default mirrors, without location-specific mirrors, and with more use of regex to reduce the number of entries
-
sstate-mirror-sites class: provides a convenient mechanism to automatically check sstate mirrors in the default sstate extra path, specified fallback hosts for native recipes, and a flat layout. As one example, this means that a mirror can be populated with native sstate archives in a RedHatEnterprise-6 directory, and knowing we can run binaries from that host, it will check there on the mirror:
SSTATE_MIRROR_DISTROS += "RedHatEnterprise-6" SSTATE_MIRROR_SITES += "file:///cache/sstate http://my.server/sstate-cache" -
isolated-sstate-dir class: link any used shared state archives into an isolated sstate directory, so we can distinguish between the contents of SSTATE_DIR and the sstate archives actually used for the build. This is needed by our release process.
- archive-release: this creates tarballs of the individual layers, downloads, shared state, images, etc for release or for inclusion in installers. this is used for Mentor Embedded Linux.
- chkconfig-alternatives - minimal target recipe, can be useful in a non-rpm environment if one wants to avoid cworth's update-alternatives
- binutils 2.17.50.0.12: originally from oe classic, pulled in for non-GPLv3 builds, so tools like oprofile and perf can be built and used
- lttng{0-ust,-control,-viewer}: recipes for lttng 0.x, for machines with old lttng 0.x patched kernels
- packagegroup-tools-benchmark: various benchmarking tools
- packagegroup-role-nas
- packagegroup-role-print-server
- packagegroup-role-router
- pyparted: this is currently unused by us, should be pushed to meta-oe
- udev 164: old udev for machines on old kernels
- classes
- license-fixup.bbclass - this should go into license.bbclass. alters the manifest generation to always emit the licenses, even if they have no generic license files in DEPLOY_DIR/license
- avahi-ui:
- use PACKAGECONFIG for python module support, inherit python classes. without these bits, it will happy mess with the build machine's python
- package avahi_discover in PYTHON_SITEPACKAGES_DIR
- curl: allow selection of openssl vs gnutls
- gconf: inherit gettext
- gnome-disk-utility
- add PACKAGECONFIG for the build of the nautilus extension
- gnutls: update ${S}/lib/po/Makefile.in.in
- linux-omap4
- disable build of kernel samples for pandaboard
- newt - splits out python module into a separate recipe. allows one to include libnewt in an image without sucking python into the build
- packagegroup-base: include dosfstools in packagegroup-base-vfat
- packagegroup-core-qt: define
LIC_FILES_CHKSUMfor MIT - packagegroup-core-ssh-openssh: define
LIC_FILES_CHKSUMfor MIT - packagegroup-core-tools-profile:
- fix inclusion of lttng bits for mips, now that liburcu has mips support
- include lttng 0.x packages for machines on old kernels which are patched for lttng 0.x
- perf
- portmap:
- obey our target paths (base_sbindir, mandir)
- samba
- disable avahi support (build determinism issue)
- without acl support (build determinism issue)
- subversion: switch to apache archive to avoid fetch issues
- wireless-tools
- wpa-supplicant: add variable to select gnutls vs openssl
- xz: adjusts license so it's clear GPLv3 files aren't shipped. upstream fixed this too, in a different way, but I think ours is superior, as it lets LICENSE reflect source licensing while the package licenses reflect what's shipped
All of these should be moved into meta-tracing:
- linux-imx
- linux-qoriq-sdk
- linux-omap4
- lttng-modules: a couple fixes, switch from 2.1.1 to 2.1.0 with intermediate commits from the master branch which incorporates additional probes
- shared-mime-info
- gettext
- libtool
- lttng2-ust
- openssh
These can be dropped as soon as the recipe PV is bumped, but are kept around for now to avoid the package versions going backwards.
- blktrace
- gdbm
- hostap
- imx-lib
- irda-utils
- packagegroup-core-device-devel
- perl
- python
- setserial
- wireless-tools
- busybox: dep on meta-oe's fbset-modes if CONFIG_FBSET=y
- binutils-libs, oprofile: add and use more minimal binutils recipe for oprofile. This recipe just builds libbfd and libiberty
- libffi: patches for mips o32/n32
- boot-format: use a different repo with additional files
- udev: retained 164 recipe for machines that still need it
