Changes in BitBake 1.8.x:
|
|
- Add bb.utils.prune_suffix function
|
|
|
|
Changes in BitBake 1.8.12:
|
|
- Fix -f (force) in conjunction with -b
|
|
- Fix exit code for build failures in --continue mode
|
|
- Fix git branch tags fetching
|
|
- Change parseConfigurationFile so it works on real data, not a copy
|
|
- Handle 'base' inherit and all other INHERITs from parseConfigurationFile
|
|
instead of BBHandler
|
|
- Fix getVarFlags bug in data_smart
|
|
- Optmise cache handling by more quickly detecting an invalid cache, only
|
|
saving the cache when its changed, moving the cache validity check into
|
|
the parsing loop and factoring some getVar calls outside a for loop
|
|
- Cooker: Remove a debug message from the parsing loop to lower overhead
|
|
- Convert build.py exec_task to use getVarFlags
|
|
- Update shell to use cooker.buildFile
|
|
- Add StampUpdate event
|
|
- Convert -b option to use taskdata/runqueue
|
|
- Remove digraph and switch to new stamp checking code. exec_task no longer
|
|
honours dependencies
|
|
- Make fetcher timestamp updating non-fatal when permissions don't allow
|
|
updates
|
|
- Add BB_SCHEDULER variable/option ("completion" or "speed") controlling
|
|
the way bitbake schedules tasks
|
|
- Add BB_STAMP_POLICY variable/option ("perfile" or "full") controlling
|
|
how extensively stamps are looked at for validity
|
|
- When handling build target failures make sure idepends are checked and
|
|
failed where needed. Fixes --continue mode crashes.
|
|
- Fix problems with recrdeptask handling where some idepends weren't handled
|
|
correctly.
|
|
- Work around refs/HEAD issues with git over http (#3410)
|
|
- Add proxy support to the CVS fetcher (from Cyril Chemparathy)
|
|
- Improve runfetchcmd so errors are seen and various GIT variables are exported
|
|
- Add ability to fetchers to check URL validity without downloading
|
|
- Improve runtime PREFERRED_PROVIDERS warning message
|
|
- Add BB_STAMP_WHITELIST option which contains a list of stamps to ignore when
|
|
checking stamp dependencies and using a BB_STAMP_POLICY of "whitelist"
|
|
- No longer weight providers on the basis of a package being "already staged". This
|
|
leads to builds being non-deterministic.
|
|
- Flush stdout/stderr before forking to fix duplicate console output
|
|
- Make sure recrdeps tasks include all inter-task dependencies of a given fn
|
|
- Add bb.runqueue.check_stamp_fn() for use by packaged-staging
|
|
- Add PERSISTENT_DIR to store the PersistData in a persistent
|
|
directory != the cache dir.
|
|
- Add md5 and sha256 checksum generation functions to utils.py
|
|
- Make sure Build Completed events are generated even when tasks fail
|
|
- Correctly handle '-' characters in class names (#2958)
|
|
- Make sure expandKeys has been called on the data dictonary before running tasks
|
|
- Correctly add a task override in the form task-TASKNAME.
|
|
- Revert the '-' character fix in class names since it breaks things
|
|
- When a regexp fails to compile for PACKAGES_DYNAMIC, print a more useful error (#4444)
|
|
- Allow to checkout CVS by Date and Time. Just add HHmm to the SRCDATE.
|
|
- Move prunedir function to utils.py and add explode_dep_versions function
|
|
- Raise an exception if SRCREV == 'INVALID'
|
|
- Fix hg fetcher username/password handling and fix crash
|
|
- Fix PACKAGES_DYNAMIC handling of packages with '++' in the name
|
|
- Rename __depends to __base_depends after configuration parsing so we don't
|
|
recheck the validity of the config files time after time
|
|
- Add better environmental variable handling. By default it will now only pass certain
|
|
whitelisted variables into the data store. If BB_PRESERVE_ENV is set bitbake will use
|
|
all variable from the environment. If BB_ENV_WHITELIST is set, that whitelist will be
|
|
used instead of the internal bitbake one. Alternatively, BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE can be used
|
|
to extend the internal whitelist.
|
|
- Perforce fetcher fix to use commandline options instead of being overriden by the environment
|
|
- use @rev when doing a svn checkout
|
|
- Add osc fetcher (from Joshua Lock in Poky)
|
|
- When SRCREV autorevisioning for a recipe is in use, don't cache the recipe
|
|
- Add tryaltconfigs option to control whether bitbake trys using alternative providers
|
|
to fulfil failed dependencies. It defaults to off, changing the default since this
|
|
behaviour confuses many users and isn't often useful.
|
|
- Improve lock file function error handling
|
|
- Add username handling to the git fetcher (Robert Bragg)
|
|
- Add support for HTTP_PROXY and HTTP_PROXY_IGNORE variables to the wget fetcher
|
|
- Export more variables to the fetcher commands to allow ssh checkouts and checkouts through
|
|
proxies to work better. (from Poky)
|
|
- Also allow user and pswd options in SRC_URIs globally (from Poky)
|
|
- Improve proxy handling when using mirrors (from Poky)
|
|
|
|

|
|
fetching (we don't care about the index). Fixes fetch errors.

|
courtsey pHilipp Zabel

Changes in BitBake 1.2.1:
|
|
The 1.2.1 release is meant as a intermediate release to lay the
|
|
ground for more radical changes. The most notable changes are:
|
|
|
|
- Do not hardcode {}, use bb.data.init() instead if you want to
|
|
get a instance of a data class
|
|
- bb.data.init() is a factory and the old bb.data methods are delegates
|
|
- Do not use deepcopy use bb.data.createCopy() instead.
|
|
- Removed default arguments in bb.fetch
|
|
