Customizing the Extensible SDK standalone installer
|
||||
***************************************************
|
||||
|
||||
This appendix describes customizations you can apply to the extensible
|
||||
SDK when using in the standalone installer version.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
It is also possible to use the Extensible SDK functionality directly in a
|
||||
Yocto build, avoiding separate installer artefacts. Please refer to
|
||||
":ref:`sdk-manual/extensible:Installing the Extensible SDK`"
|
||||
|
||||
Configuring the Extensible SDK
|
||||
==============================
|
||||
|
||||
The extensible SDK primarily consists of a pre-configured copy of the
|
||||
OpenEmbedded build system from which it was produced. Thus, the SDK's
|
||||
configuration is derived using that build system and the filters shown
|
||||
in the following list. When these filters are present, the OpenEmbedded
|
||||
build system applies them against ``local.conf`` and ``auto.conf``:
|
||||
|
||||
- Variables whose values start with "/" are excluded since the
|
||||
assumption is that those values are paths that are likely to be
|
||||
specific to the :term:`Build Host`.
|
||||
|
||||
- Variables listed in
|
||||
:term:`ESDK_LOCALCONF_REMOVE`
|
||||
are excluded. These variables are not allowed through from the
|
||||
OpenEmbedded build system configuration into the extensible SDK
|
||||
configuration. Typically, these variables are specific to the machine
|
||||
on which the build system is running and could be problematic as part
|
||||
of the extensible SDK configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
For a list of the variables excluded by default, see the
|
||||
:term:`ESDK_LOCALCONF_REMOVE`
|
||||
in the glossary of the Yocto Project Reference Manual.
|
||||
|
||||
- Variables listed in
|
||||
:term:`ESDK_LOCALCONF_ALLOW`
|
||||
are included. Including a variable in the value of
|
||||
:term:`ESDK_LOCALCONF_ALLOW` overrides either of the previous two
|
||||
filters. The default value is blank.
|
||||
|
||||
- Classes inherited globally with :term:`INHERIT` that are listed in
|
||||
:term:`ESDK_CLASS_INHERIT_DISABLE` are disabled. Using
|
||||
:term:`ESDK_CLASS_INHERIT_DISABLE` to disable these classes is the typical
|
||||
method to disable classes that are problematic or unnecessary in the SDK
|
||||
context. The default value disables the
|
||||
:ref:`ref-classes-buildhistory` and :ref:`ref-classes-icecc` classes.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, the contents of ``conf/sdk-extra.conf``, when present, are
|
||||
appended to the end of ``conf/local.conf`` within the produced SDK,
|
||||
without any filtering. The ``sdk-extra.conf`` file is particularly
|
||||
useful if you want to set a variable value just for the SDK and not the
|
||||
OpenEmbedded build system used to create the SDK.
|
||||
|
||||
Adjusting the Extensible SDK to Suit Your Build Host's Setup
|
||||
============================================================
|
||||
|
||||
In most cases, the extensible SDK defaults should work with your :term:`Build
|
||||
Host`'s setup. However, there are cases when you might consider making
|
||||
adjustments:
|
||||
|
||||
- If your SDK configuration inherits additional classes using the
|
||||
:term:`INHERIT` variable and you
|
||||
do not need or want those classes enabled in the SDK, you can
|
||||
disable them by adding them to the :term:`ESDK_CLASS_INHERIT_DISABLE`
|
||||
variable as described in the previous section.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
The default value of :term:`ESDK_CLASS_INHERIT_DISABLE`
|
||||
is set using the "?=" operator. Consequently, you will need to
|
||||
either define the entire list by using the "=" operator, or you
|
||||
will need to append a value using either ":append" or the "+="
|
||||
operator. You can learn more about these operators in the
|
||||
":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:basic syntax`"
|
||||
section of the BitBake User Manual.
|
||||
|
||||
- If you have classes or recipes that add additional tasks to the
|
||||
standard build flow (i.e. the tasks execute as the recipe builds as
|
||||
opposed to being called explicitly), then you need to do one of the
|
||||
following:
|
||||
|
||||
- After ensuring the tasks are :ref:`shared
|
||||
state <overview-manual/concepts:shared state cache>` tasks (i.e. the
|
||||
output of the task is saved to and can be restored from the shared
|
||||
state cache) or ensuring the tasks are able to be produced quickly
|
||||
from a task that is a shared state task, add the task name to the
|
||||
value of
|
||||
:term:`SDK_RECRDEP_TASKS`.
|
||||
|
||||
- Disable the tasks if they are added by a class and you do not need
|
||||
the functionality the class provides in the extensible SDK. To
|
||||
disable the tasks, add the class to the :term:`ESDK_CLASS_INHERIT_DISABLE`
|
||||
variable as described in the previous section.
|
||||
|
||||
- Generally, you want to have a shared state mirror set up so users of
|
||||
the SDK can add additional items to the SDK after installation
|
||||
without needing to build the items from source. See the
|
||||
":ref:`sdk-manual/appendix-customizing:providing additional installable extensible sdk content`"
|
||||
section for information.
|
||||
|
||||
- If you want users of the SDK to be able to easily update the SDK, you
|
||||
need to set the
|
||||
:term:`SDK_UPDATE_URL`
|
||||
variable. For more information, see the
|
||||
":ref:`sdk-manual/appendix-customizing:providing updates to the extensible sdk after installation`"
|
||||
section.
|
||||
|
||||
- If you have adjusted the list of files and directories that appear in
|
||||
:term:`COREBASE` (other than
|
||||
layers that are enabled through ``bblayers.conf``), then you must
|
||||
list these files in
|
||||
:term:`COREBASE_FILES` so
|
||||
that the files are copied into the SDK.
|
||||
|
||||
- If your OpenEmbedded build system setup uses a different environment
|
||||
setup script other than
|
||||
:ref:`structure-core-script`, then you must
|
||||
set
|
||||
:term:`OE_INIT_ENV_SCRIPT`
|
||||
to point to the environment setup script you use.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
You must also reflect this change in the value used for the
|
||||
:term:`COREBASE_FILES` variable as previously described.
|
||||
|
||||
Changing the Extensible SDK Installer Title
|
||||
===========================================
|
||||
|
||||
You can change the displayed title for the SDK installer by setting the
|
||||
:term:`SDK_TITLE` variable and then
|
||||
rebuilding the SDK installer. For information on how to build an SDK
|
||||
installer, see the ":ref:`sdk-manual/appendix-obtain:building an sdk installer`"
|
||||
section.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, this title is derived from
|
||||
:term:`DISTRO_NAME` when it is
|
||||
set. If the :term:`DISTRO_NAME` variable is not set, the title is derived
|
||||
from the :term:`DISTRO` variable.
|
||||
|
||||
The
|
||||
:ref:`populate_sdk_base <ref-classes-populate-sdk-*>`
|
||||
class defines the default value of the :term:`SDK_TITLE` variable as
|
||||
follows::
|
||||
|
||||
SDK_TITLE ??= "${@d.getVar('DISTRO_NAME') or d.getVar('DISTRO')} SDK"
|
||||
|
||||
While there are several ways of changing this variable, an efficient method is
|
||||
to set the variable in your distribution's configuration file. Doing so
|
||||
creates an SDK installer title that applies across your distribution. As
|
||||
an example, assume you have your own layer for your distribution named
|
||||
"meta-mydistro" and you are using the same type of file hierarchy as
|
||||
does the default "poky" distribution. If so, you could update the
|
||||
:term:`SDK_TITLE` variable in the
|
||||
``~/meta-mydistro/conf/distro/mydistro.conf`` file using the following
|
||||
form::
|
||||
|
||||
SDK_TITLE = "your_title"
|
||||
|
||||
Providing Updates to the Extensible SDK After Installation
|
||||
==========================================================
|
||||
|
||||
When you make changes to your configuration or to the metadata and if
|
||||
you want those changes to be reflected in installed SDKs, you need to
|
||||
perform additional steps. These steps make it possible for anyone using
|
||||
the installed SDKs to update the installed SDKs by using the
|
||||
``devtool sdk-update`` command:
|
||||
|
||||
#. Create a directory that can be shared over HTTP or HTTPS. You can do
|
||||
this by setting up a web server such as an :wikipedia:`Apache HTTP Server
|
||||
<Apache_HTTP_Server>` or :wikipedia:`Nginx <Nginx>` server in the cloud
|
||||
to host the directory. This directory must contain the published SDK.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Set the
|
||||
:term:`SDK_UPDATE_URL`
|
||||
variable to point to the corresponding HTTP or HTTPS URL. Setting
|
||||
this variable causes any SDK built to default to that URL and thus,
|
||||
the user does not have to pass the URL to the ``devtool sdk-update``
|
||||
command as described in the
|
||||
":ref:`sdk-manual/extensible:applying updates to an installed extensible sdk`"
|
||||
section.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Build the extensible SDK normally (i.e., use the
|
||||
``bitbake -c populate_sdk_ext`` imagename command).
|
||||
|
||||
#. Publish the SDK using the following command::
|
||||
|
||||
$ oe-publish-sdk some_path/sdk-installer.sh path_to_shared_http_directory
|
||||
|
||||
You must
|
||||
repeat this step each time you rebuild the SDK with changes that you
|
||||
want to make available through the update mechanism.
|
||||
|
||||
Completing the above steps allows users of the existing installed SDKs
|
||||
to simply run ``devtool sdk-update`` to retrieve and apply the latest
|
||||
updates. See the
|
||||
":ref:`sdk-manual/extensible:applying updates to an installed extensible sdk`"
|
||||
section for further information.
|
||||
|
||||
Changing the Default SDK Installation Directory
|
||||
===============================================
|
||||
|
||||
When you build the installer for the Extensible SDK, the default
|
||||
installation directory for the SDK is based on the
|
||||
:term:`DISTRO` and
|
||||
:term:`SDKEXTPATH` variables from
|
||||
within the
|
||||
:ref:`populate_sdk_base <ref-classes-populate-sdk-*>`
|
||||
class as follows::
|
||||
|
||||
SDKEXTPATH ??= "~/${@d.getVar('DISTRO')}_sdk"
|
||||
|
||||
You can
|
||||
change this default installation directory by specifically setting the
|
||||
:term:`SDKEXTPATH` variable.
|
||||
|
||||
While there are several ways of setting this variable,
|
||||
the method that makes the most sense is to set the variable in your
|
||||
distribution's configuration file. Doing so creates an SDK installer
|
||||
default directory that applies across your distribution. As an example,
|
||||
assume you have your own layer for your distribution named
|
||||
"meta-mydistro" and you are using the same type of file hierarchy as
|
||||
does the default "poky" distribution. If so, you could update the
|
||||
:term:`SDKEXTPATH` variable in the
|
||||
``~/meta-mydistro/conf/distro/mydistro.conf`` file using the following
|
||||
form::
|
||||
|
||||
SDKEXTPATH = "some_path_for_your_installed_sdk"
|
||||
|
||||
After building your installer, running it prompts the user for
|
||||
acceptance of the some_path_for_your_installed_sdk directory as the
|
||||
default location to install the Extensible SDK.
|
||||
|
||||
Providing Additional Installable Extensible SDK Content
|
||||
=======================================================
|
||||
|
||||
If you want the users of an extensible SDK you build to be able to add
|
||||
items to the SDK without requiring the users to build the items from
|
||||
source, you need to do a number of things:
|
||||
|
||||
#. Ensure the additional items you want the user to be able to install
|
||||
are already built:
|
||||
|
||||
- Build the items explicitly. You could use one or more "meta"
|
||||
recipes that depend on lists of other recipes.
|
||||
|
||||
- Build the "world" target and set
|
||||
``EXCLUDE_FROM_WORLD:pn-``\ recipename for the recipes you do not
|
||||
want built. See the
|
||||
:term:`EXCLUDE_FROM_WORLD`
|
||||
variable for additional information.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Expose the ``sstate-cache`` directory produced by the build.
|
||||
Typically, you expose this directory by making it available through
|
||||
an :wikipedia:`Apache HTTP Server <Apache_HTTP_Server>` or
|
||||
:wikipedia:`Nginx <Nginx>` server.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Set the appropriate configuration so that the produced SDK knows how
|
||||
to find the configuration. The variable you need to set is
|
||||
:term:`SSTATE_MIRRORS`::
|
||||
|
||||
SSTATE_MIRRORS = "file://.* https://example.com/some_path/sstate-cache/PATH"
|
||||
|
||||
You can set the :term:`SSTATE_MIRRORS` variable in two different places:
|
||||
|
||||
- If the mirror value you are setting is appropriate to be set for
|
||||
both the OpenEmbedded build system that is actually building the
|
||||
SDK and the SDK itself (i.e. the mirror is accessible in both
|
||||
places or it will fail quickly on the OpenEmbedded build system
|
||||
side, and its contents will not interfere with the build), then
|
||||
you can set the variable in your ``local.conf`` or custom distro
|
||||
configuration file. You can then pass the variable to the SDK by
|
||||
adding the following::
|
||||
|
||||
ESDK_LOCALCONF_ALLOW = "SSTATE_MIRRORS"
|
||||
|
||||
- Alternatively, if you just want to set the :term:`SSTATE_MIRRORS`
|
||||
variable's value for the SDK alone, create a ``conf/sdk-extra.conf``
|
||||
file either in your :term:`Build Directory` or within any
|
||||
layer and put your :term:`SSTATE_MIRRORS` setting within that file.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
This second option is the safest option should you have any
|
||||
doubts as to which method to use when setting
|
||||
:term:`SSTATE_MIRRORS`
|
||||
|
||||
Minimizing the Size of the Extensible SDK Installer Download
|
||||
============================================================
|
||||
|
||||
By default, the extensible SDK bundles the shared state artifacts for
|
||||
everything needed to reconstruct the image for which the SDK was built.
|
||||
This bundling can lead to an SDK installer file that is a Gigabyte or
|
||||
more in size. If the size of this file causes a problem, you can build
|
||||
an SDK that has just enough in it to install and provide access to the
|
||||
``devtool command`` by setting the following in your configuration::
|
||||
|
||||
SDK_EXT_TYPE = "minimal"
|
||||
|
||||
Setting
|
||||
:term:`SDK_EXT_TYPE` to
|
||||
"minimal" produces an SDK installer that is around 35 Mbytes in size,
|
||||
which downloads and installs quickly. You need to realize, though, that
|
||||
the minimal installer does not install any libraries or tools out of the
|
||||
box. These libraries and tools must be installed either "on the fly" or
|
||||
through actions you perform using ``devtool`` or explicitly with the
|
||||
``devtool sdk-install`` command.
|
||||
|
||||
In most cases, when building a minimal SDK you need to also enable
|
||||
bringing in the information on a wider range of packages produced by the
|
||||
system. Requiring this wider range of information is particularly true
|
||||
so that ``devtool add`` is able to effectively map dependencies it
|
||||
discovers in a source tree to the appropriate recipes. Additionally, the
|
||||
information enables the ``devtool search`` command to return useful
|
||||
results.
|
||||
|
||||
To facilitate this wider range of information, you would need to set the
|
||||
following::
|
||||
|
||||
SDK_INCLUDE_PKGDATA = "1"
|
||||
|
||||
See the :term:`SDK_INCLUDE_PKGDATA` variable for additional information.
|
||||
|
||||
Setting the :term:`SDK_INCLUDE_PKGDATA` variable as shown causes the "world"
|
||||
target to be built so that information for all of the recipes included
|
||||
within it are available. Having these recipes available increases build
|
||||
time significantly and increases the size of the SDK installer by 30-80
|
||||
Mbytes depending on how many recipes are included in your configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
You can use ``EXCLUDE_FROM_WORLD:pn-``\ recipename for recipes you want
|
||||
to exclude. However, it is assumed that you would need to be building
|
||||
the "world" target if you want to provide additional items to the SDK.
|
||||
Consequently, building for "world" should not represent undue overhead
|
||||
in most cases.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
If you set
|
||||
SDK_EXT_TYPE
|
||||
to "minimal", then providing a shared state mirror is mandatory so
|
||||
that items can be installed as needed. See the
|
||||
:ref:`sdk-manual/appendix-customizing:providing additional installable extensible sdk content`
|
||||
section for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
You can explicitly control whether or not to include the toolchain when
|
||||
you build an SDK by setting the
|
||||
:term:`SDK_INCLUDE_TOOLCHAIN`
|
||||
variable to "1". In particular, it is useful to include the toolchain
|
||||
when you have set :term:`SDK_EXT_TYPE` to "minimal", which by default,
|
||||
excludes the toolchain. Also, it is helpful if you are building a small
|
||||
SDK for use with an IDE or some other tool where you do not want to take
|
||||
extra steps to install a toolchain.
