Release 4.2 (mickledore)
|
||||
========================
|
||||
|
||||
Migration notes for 4.2 (mickledore)
|
||||
------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
This section provides migration information for moving to the Yocto
|
||||
Project 4.2 Release (codename "mickledore") from the prior release.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _migration-4.2-supported-distributions:
|
||||
|
||||
Supported distributions
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
This release supports running BitBake on new GNU/Linux distributions:
|
||||
|
||||
- Fedora 36 and 37
|
||||
- AlmaLinux 8.7 and 9.1
|
||||
- OpenSuse 15.4
|
||||
|
||||
On the other hand, some earlier distributions are no longer supported:
|
||||
|
||||
- Debian 10.x
|
||||
- Fedora 34 and 35
|
||||
- AlmaLinux 8.5
|
||||
|
||||
See :ref:`all supported distributions <system-requirements-supported-distros>`.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _migration-4.2-python-3.8:
|
||||
|
||||
Python 3.8 is now the minimum required Python version version
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
BitBake and OpenEmbedded-Core now require Python 3.8 or newer,
|
||||
making it a requirement to use a distribution providing at least this
|
||||
version, or to install a :term:`buildtools` tarball.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _migration-4.2-gcc-8.0:
|
||||
|
||||
gcc 8.0 is now the minimum required GNU C compiler version
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
This version, released in 2018, is a minimum requirement
|
||||
to build the ``mesa-native`` recipe and as the latter is in the
|
||||
default dependency chain when building QEMU this has now been
|
||||
made a requirement for all builds.
|
||||
|
||||
In the event that your host distribution does not provide this
|
||||
or a newer version of gcc, you can install a
|
||||
:term:`buildtools-extended` tarball.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _migration-4.2-new-nvd-api:
|
||||
|
||||
Fetching the NVD vulnerability database through the 2.0 API
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
This new version adds a new fetcher for the NVD database using the 2.0 API,
|
||||
as the 1.0 API will be retired in 2023.
|
||||
|
||||
The implementation changes as little as possible, keeping the current
|
||||
database format (but using a different database file for the transition
|
||||
period), with a notable exception of not using the META table.
|
||||
|
||||
Here are minor changes that you may notice:
|
||||
|
||||
- The database starts in 1999 instead of 2002
|
||||
- The complete fetch is longer (30 minutes typically)
|
||||
|
||||
.. _migration-4.2-rust-crate-checksums:
|
||||
|
||||
Rust: mandatory checksums for crates
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
This release now supports checksums for Rust crates and makes
|
||||
them mandatory for each crate in a recipe. See :yocto_git:`python3_bcrypt recipe changes
|
||||
</poky/commit/?h=mickledore&id=0dcb5ab3462fdaaf1646b05a00c7150eea711a9a>`
|
||||
for example.
|
||||
|
||||
The ``cargo-update-recipe-crates`` utility
|
||||
:yocto_git:`has been extended </poky/commit/?h=mickledore&id=eef7fbea2c5bf59369390be4d5efa915591b7b22>`
|
||||
to include such checksums. So, in case you need to add the list of checksums
|
||||
to a recipe just inheriting the :ref:`ref-classes-cargo` class so far, you can
|
||||
follow these steps:
|
||||
|
||||
#. Make the recipe inherit :ref:`ref-classes-cargo-update-recipe-crates`
|
||||
#. Remove all ``crate://`` lines from the recipe
|
||||
#. Create an empty ``${BPN}-crates.inc`` file and make your recipe require it
|
||||
#. Execute ``bitbake -c update_crates your_recipe``
|
||||
#. Copy and paste the output of BitBake about the missing checksums into the
|
||||
``${BPN}-crates.inc`` file.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. _migration-4.2-addpylib:
|
||||
|
||||
Python library code extensions
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
BitBake in this release now supports a new ``addpylib`` directive to enable
|
||||
Python libraries within layers.
|
||||
|
||||
This directive should be added to your layer configuration
|
||||
as in the below example from ``meta/conf/layer.conf``::
|
||||
|
||||
addpylib ${LAYERDIR}/lib oe
|
||||
|
||||
Layers currently adding a lib directory to extend Python library code should now
|
||||
use this directive as :term:`BBPATH` is not going to be added automatically by
|
||||
OE-Core in future. Note that the directives are immediate operations, so it does
|
||||
make modules available for use sooner than the current BBPATH-based approach.
|
||||
|
||||
For more information, see :ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:extending python library code`.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. _migration-4.2-removed-variables:
|
||||
|
||||
Removed variables
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
The following variables have been removed:
|
||||
|
||||
- ``SERIAL_CONSOLE``, deprecated since version 2.6, replaced by :term:`SERIAL_CONSOLES`.
|
||||
- ``PACKAGEBUILDPKGD``, a mostly internal variable in the :ref:`ref-classes-package`
|
||||
class was rarely used to customise packaging. If you were using this in your custom
|
||||
recipes or bbappends, you will need to switch to using :term:`PACKAGE_PREPROCESS_FUNCS`
|
||||
or :term:`PACKAGESPLITFUNCS` instead.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _migration-4.2-removed-recipes:
|
||||
|
||||
Removed recipes
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
The following recipes have been removed in this release:
|
||||
|
||||
- ``python3-picobuild``: after switching to ``python3-build``
|
||||
- ``python3-strict-rfc3339``: unmaintained and not needed by anything in
|
||||
:oe_git:`openembedded-core </openembedded-core>`
|
||||
or :oe_git:`meta-openembedded </meta-openembedded>`.
|
||||
- ``linux-yocto``: removed version 5.19 recipes (6.1 and 5.15 still provided)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. _migration-4.2-removed-classes:
|
||||
|
||||
Removed classes
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
The following classes have been removed in this release:
|
||||
|
||||
- ``rust-bin``: no longer used
|
||||
- ``package_tar``: could not be used for actual packaging, and thus not particularly useful.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
LAYERSERIES_COMPAT for custom layers and devtool workspace
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
Some layer maintainers have been setting :term:`LAYERSERIES_COMPAT` in their
|
||||
layer's ``conf/layer.conf`` to the value of ``LAYERSERIES_CORENAMES`` to
|
||||
effectively bypass the compatibility check - this is no longer permitted.
|
||||
Layer maintainers should set :term:`LAYERSERIES_COMPAT` appropriately to
|
||||
help users understand the compatibility status of the layer.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, the :term:`LAYERSERIES_COMPAT` value for the devtool workspace
|
||||
layer is now set at the time of creation, thus if you upgrade with the
|
||||
workspace layer enabled and you wish to retain it, you will need to manually
|
||||
update the :term:`LAYERSERIES_COMPAT` value in ``workspace/conf/layer.conf``
|
||||
(or remove the path from :term:`BBLAYERS` in ``conf/bblayers.conf`` and
|
||||
delete/move the ``workspace`` directory out of the way if you no longer
|
||||
need it).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. _migration-4.2-runqemu-slirp:
|
||||
|
||||
runqemu now limits slirp host port forwarding to localhost
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
With default slirp port forwarding configuration in runqemu, qemu
|
||||
previously listened on TCP ports 2222 and 2323 on all IP addresses
|
||||
available on the build host. Most use cases with runqemu only need
|
||||
it for localhost and it is not safe to run qemu images with root
|
||||
login without password enabled and listening on all available,
|
||||
possibly Internet reachable network interfaces. Thus, in this
|
||||
release we limit qemu port forwarding to localhost (127.0.0.1).
|
||||
|
||||
However, if you need the qemu machine to be reachable from the
|
||||
network, then it can be enabled via ``conf/local.conf`` or machine
|
||||
config variable ``QB_SLIRP_OPT``::
|
||||
|
||||
QB_SLIRP_OPT = "-netdev user,id=net0,hostfwd=tcp::2222-:22"
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. _migration-4.2-patch-qa:
|
||||
|
||||
Patch QA checks
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
The QA checks for patch fuzz and Upstream-Status have been reworked
|
||||
slightly in this release. The Upstream-Status checking is now configurable
|
||||
from :term:`WARN_QA` / :term:`ERROR_QA` (``patch-status-core`` for the
|
||||
core layer, and ``patch-status-noncore`` for other layers).
|
||||
|
||||
The ``patch-fuzz`` and ``patch-status-core`` checks are now in the default
|
||||
value of :term:`ERROR_QA` so that they will cause the build to fail
|
||||
if triggered. If you prefer to avoid this you will need to adjust the value
|
||||
of :term:`ERROR_QA` in your configuration as desired.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. _migration-4.2-mesa:
|
||||
|
||||
Native/nativesdk mesa usage and graphics drivers
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
This release includes mesa 23.0, and with that mesa release it is not longer
|
||||
possible to use drivers from the host system, as mesa upstream has added strict
|
||||
checks for matching builds between drivers and libraries that load them.
|
||||
|
||||
This is particularly relevant when running QEMU built within the build
|
||||
system. A check has been added to runqemu so that there is a helpful error
|
||||
when there is no native/nativesdk opengl/virgl support available.
|
||||
|
||||
To support this, a number of drivers have been enabled when building ``mesa-native``.
|
||||
The one major dependency pulled in by this change is ``llvm-native`` which will
|
||||
add a few minutes to the build on a modern machine. If this is undesirable, you
|
||||
can set the value of :term:`DISTRO_FEATURES_NATIVE` in your configuration such
|
||||
that ``opengl`` is excluded.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. _migration-4.2-misc-changes:
|
||||
|
||||
Miscellaneous changes
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
- The :term:`IMAGE_NAME` variable is now set based on :term:`IMAGE_LINK_NAME`. This
|
||||
means that if you are setting :term:`IMAGE_LINK_NAME` to "" to disable unversioned
|
||||
image symlink creation, you also now need to set :term:`IMAGE_NAME` to still have
|
||||
a reasonable value e.g.::
|
||||
|
||||
IMAGE_LINK_NAME = ""
|
||||
IMAGE_NAME = "${IMAGE_BASENAME}${IMAGE_MACHINE_SUFFIX}${IMAGE_VERSION_SUFFIX}"
|
||||
|
||||
- In ``/etc/os-release``, the ``VERSION_CODENAME`` field is now used instead of
|
||||
``DISTRO_CODENAME`` (though its value is still set from the :term:`DISTRO_CODENAME`
|
||||
variable) for better conformance to standard os-release usage. If you have runtime
|
||||
code reading this from ``/etc/os-release`` it may need to be updated.
|
||||
|
||||
- The kmod recipe now enables OpenSSL support by default in order to support module
|
||||
signing. If you do not need this and wish to reclaim some space/avoid the dependency
|
||||
you should set :term:`PACKAGECONFIG` in a kmod bbappend (or ``PACKAGECONFIG:pn-kmod``
|
||||
at the configuration level) to exclude ``openssl``.
|
||||
|
||||
- The ``OEBasic`` signature handler (see :term:`BB_SIGNATURE_HANDLER`) has been
|
||||
removed. It is unlikely that you would have selected to use this, but if you have
|
||||
you will need to remove this setting.
|
||||
|
||||
- The :ref:`ref-classes-package` class now checks if package names conflict via
|
||||
``PKG:${PN}`` override during ``do_package``. If you receive the associated error
|
||||
you will need to address the :term:`PKG` usage so that the conflict is resolved.
|
||||
|
||||
- openssh no longer uses :term:`RRECOMMENDS` to pull in ``rng-tools``, since rngd
|
||||
is no longer needed as of Linux kernel 5.6. If you still need ``rng-tools``
|
||||
installed for other reasons, you should add ``rng-tools`` explicitly to your
|
||||
image. If you additionally need rngd to be started as a service you will also
|
||||
need to add the ``rng-tools-service`` package as that has been split out.
|
||||
|
||||
- The cups recipe no longer builds with the web interface enabled, saving ~1.8M of
|
||||
space in the final image. If you wish to enable it, you should set
|
||||
:term:`PACKAGECONFIG` in a cups bbappend (or ``PACKAGECONFIG:pn-cups`` at the
|
||||
configuration level) to include ``webif``.
|
||||
|
||||
- The :ref:`ref-classes-scons` class now passes a ``MAXLINELENGTH`` argument to
|
||||
scons in order to fix an issue with scons and command line lengths when ccache is
|
||||
enabled. However, some recipes may be using older scons versions which don't support
|
||||
this argument. If that is the case you can set the following in the recipe in order
|
||||
to disable this::
|
||||
|
||||
SCONS_MAXLINELENGTH = ""

||||
