diamondmanHello everyone. I am pretty new to the yocto project. I find it confusing that when I `source ./oe-buildenv-internal mybuild`, I get a mybuild/conf/bblayers.conf. This is confusing to me since I expected what layers to use would be a configuration I provided, not a build artifact. I did find the bblayers.conf.sample template, but having to modify my checked out poky repository to add a layer feels incorrect to me.00:38
diamondmanDoes anyone know how I am supposed to add layers to a zeus checkout without modifying the source?00:41
diamondmanSorry, I meant `source ./oe-init-build-env mybuild`00:43
diamondmanOne person I asked literally recommended making my own script that calls oe-init-build-env, and then uses `sed` to add my layers to the generated bblayers file. There has to be a more appropriate way.00:44

mckoandiamondman: you get mybuild/conf/bblayers.conf as starting point. It is created autoatically the first time you run oe-init-build-env07:48
diamondman@mckoan The reason I was confused by that file being generated is I would expect bblayers to be checked into source control, but I will never check anything in build into source control.07:49

diamondmanthanks, but I did know that. I managed to figure out how to override the conf templates with `TEMPLATECONF`08:09
LetoThe2nddiamondman: actually i think you're on the wrong path here08:29
LetoThe2ndbblayers is not meant to go into source control, as it usually contains absolute pathes08:29

*** florian_kc <florian_kc!~florian_k@Maemo/community/contributor/florian> has quit IRC09:12
qschulzI have a question: if a package B is added in RDEPENDS of package A through the auto-RDEPENDS mechanism. If package B is rebuilt, that auto-RDEPENDS mechanism should be re-executed right? We have an issue in thud where we added ALL libs from package B to PRIVATE_LIBS but package A still RDEPENDS at packaging time on package B, which can't happen (there is no explicit RDEPENDS)09:13
qschulzand to complete the whole context. package A and package B provide the same SONAME libraries (hence the PRIVATE_LIBS for one) but one compiled "normally" and the other with libcpp and libc from clang (manually done, not with meta-clang).09:17

Ad0I had to change rust revision, how do I clean rust so it recompiles (meta-rust) it has a recipe called rust, and I did clean on that but nothing really happened10:05
Ad0it doesn't recompile rust10:05
GeneralStupidqschulz: this is the actual question. For me it looks like that QSPI NAND is not really supported.10:06
qschulzGeneralStupid: There is no mention of which software you're trying to run, what tells you it's not supported, what's happening, what you want to achieve, etc.10:07
qschulzHave you tried without Yocto first, i.e. is it upstream support that is lacking/broken or is it Yocto doing some fancy stuff you want to fix.10:08
qschulzI doubt it's Yocto related, so you can head to your project's IRC channel. Most likely #mtd for the NAND support in U-Boot/Kernel. Might also be worth asking help on #u-boot. Also if I recall correctly, it's also an NXP vendor BSP, so contact them. If it's BOOTROM issue, contact your supplier, etc. :)10:09

GeneralStupidqschulz: Ideally i want to boot from it. but thats a NXP related question. So the idea is to initally boot from QSPI NOR and then, when Uboot is loaded i Chipselect the NAND Flash and boot from it. Yes i already work into that BOOTROM. Its extendible... Great...10:16

rangergordI'm not 100% sure we'll be able to go with x86, it's what I'm pushing for as a pure SW guy...but if we have to go with ARM then suddenly my kernel requirements go up by a lot (due to the fact that I want to use .NET Core)17:38
rangergordgeorgem, thanks for the advice17:39
georgemrangergord: Intel stuff is generally easier to keep going but there a bunch of other issues to deal with like UEFI, lack of devicetree, etc.17:39

I can assure you that it takes a HUGE amount of time to recruit because devs avoid tech that either isn't super-interesting from a geek POV (like Rust/Haskell/F# hipsters), or stagnates their value.

zeddiiif you are going that way (debian), I'd agree.20:20
kergothah, you're looking to move *away* from debian?20:20
zeddiinot exactly. just going around the wheel of debian vs yocto again, and heard meta-debian as a half way. I wouldn't go half way myself, chose and go for it.20:21
zeddiibut that's just my point of view, I can't say I've looked into the options lately.20:22
* kergoth nods20:23
khemkergoth: does isar use prebuilt archives ?20:23
kergothi feel like you should either go debian or go oe/yocto, not somewhere in between20:23
fraykergoth I have said exactly the same thing multiple times..20:24
frayIf you want binaries and don't -ever- want to customize or build, Debian is fine..20:24
kergothkhem: it builds root filesystems from debian package feeds, using bitbake to do the work, with classes, uses debootstrap/etc, but has classes to create packages from recipes using dpkg tools and add them to the feeds for use in image construction20:24
kergoths/do the work/wrap the tools/20:24
frayif you want binaries, but might need to customize (or plan to) and you MUST be able to rebuild.. OE/Yocto is the only answer../20:24
fraybut don't mix and match, then you get the worst of both20:24
khemkergoth: thats neat actually,20:24
kergothisar is okay if you just want to build on debian, but it won't give you the ability to rebuild existing upstream components, though presumably they could add a class to use apt-get source or something..20:25
* kergoth nods20:25
khemkergoth: so one can take a package modify and rebuild it20:25
khem?ah that answers20:25
khemso its basically an image builder20:25
khemto spin out custom images20:26
kergothit does have classes that let you fetch your own sources and build a package out of the debian/ bits in the source tree and add it to the image20:26

kergothMentor now has two embedded linux products, flex is oe/yocto based, omni is isar based, to provide both for folks that need an OSV20:29
kergoththat's true20:30
fraykergoth and I think that is a reasonable thing (two different systems for two differetn users)20:30
khemso its again arm vs x86, where do you debug your problems ?20:30
fraybut I think Yocto can reach a bunch of people asking for Debian [or more likely Ubuntu] by having a 'binary distro'... problem is it takes resources to do that work, otherwise we have most, if not everything we need already20:31
kergothagreed20:32

frayhavn't sent that out officially yet.. but if anyone has comments, I'd like to address them before I do.. (Was planning to send something out on Monday)20:33
fray(or Friday)20:33
frayDoing that process would enable someone to build a binary distro for quick start.. and then allow the person to transition to an eSDK environment where they could augment their private package feeds, all the way up to a full Yocto Project environment where they can customize everything20:34
zeddiiwise plan. send it out when everyone has gone for the holidays, and then write it down in stone after :D20:34
zeddiiI'll read it though, and break your process20:35

zeddiifancy. diagrams.20:35

zeddiibah. cut out sleep.20:36
fraythere is only one fancy diagram..  this stuff is pretty much simple for anyone who has done it before.. but people keep saying it's not possible or they don't know how to do it20:36
zeddiilooks good on my read so far, but having done a lot of it before .. I'm probably not the target :D20:36
rburtonfray: what BSPs would that binary distro support?20:38
frayanswer is whatever BSPs are enabled20:38
fraythis is about a process..20:38
fraythe configuration becomes specific to the distribution..  but it does mean that BSPs would need to use common tunes and such to make things common20:39
zeddiiyah. exactly, this isn't for someone that is trying to wring the most out of their ISA20:39
zeddiibut neither is debian, so that's ok.20:39
frayit COULD be, but that would be very inefficient20:39
fraythis process very well could also be for -one- board as well.. but again, less efficient from a management standpoint20:40
zeddiiagreed. jonmason and I were defining some baselines in the fall and need to pick it up again.20:40
fraythe requirements is a list of things that need to be considered and either accepted, defined or specifically stated as not applicable20:40

dfreyShould my backports recipe inherit kernel-module-split?20:47
