When a package wants to build a kernel module, we should ensure that the kernel does support modules. This patch does it automatically for packages using the kernel-module infrastructure.

2015-08-23linux: enable all options needed by xtables-addonsYann E. MORIN
Both of CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK and CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_MARK are needed by xtables-addons. Although the current code does enable them in the linux' .config file, the former is protected behind CONFIG_NETFILTER_ADVANCED, which may be missing from a user-supplied (def)config file, and is missing from some of the bundled defconfigs as well. For example, the following defconfig fails to build: BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL=y BR2_LINUX_KERNEL=y BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_DEFCONFIG="i386" BR2_PACKAGE_XTABLES_ADDONS=y So, also force-enable CONFIG_NETFILTER_ADVANCED.

2015-07-14package/linux: check for config file before calling kconfig-packageYann E. MORIN
If we check that the user provides a config file after we call to the kconfig-package infra, the error message we get is the one for the kconfig-package infra, not the custom error message we want to show to the user. So, only call kconfig-package after we do the check. Move the check with the existing checks for the DTS, for consistency. [Thomas: put the checks together, but right before the kconfig-package call, rather than in the middle of the code, were the DTS related tests were located.] Signed-off-by: "Yann E.

2015-07-13linux: adjust fixup logic for ktapThomas Petazzoni
The ktap package requires some parts of the kernel tracing infrastructure to be enabled, especially CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING. However, this option is a blind option in the kernel, so enabling it in linux.mk has no effect: we need to enable a non-blind option that selects CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING. We've chosen to select CONFIG_ENABLE_DEFAULT_TRACERS. This fixes the build of ktap.

2015-04-22rtai: remove option BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_EXT_RTAI_PATCHThomas Petazzoni
This commit removes BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_EXT_RTAI_PATCH because this option never worked. It was added in commit 8797a9cd1fe6723db34b0c125d0d9d04e3483e8d, which added package/rtai/ and RTAI as a Linux extension. The option prompt says "Path for RTAI patch file", so let's say you specify /home/foo/bar/myrtai.patch as the value for BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_EXT_RTAI_PATCH. Then the code does: RTAI_PATCH = $(call qstrip,$(BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_EXT_RTAI_PATCH)) and we have a package called 'rtai', so the normal logic of <pkg>_PATCH applies. Since the <pkg>_PATCH value does not contain ftp://, http:// or https://, the package infrastructure will try to download $(RTAI_SITE)/$(RTAI_PATCH), i.e: https://www.rtai.org/userfiles/downloads/RTAI/home/foo/bar/myrtai.patch Pretty clear that it has no chance of working. Now, let's assume an URL is used as the value of BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_EXT_RTAI_PATCH, such as http://foo.com/bar/myrtai.patch. In this case, it will be properly downloaded by the package infrastructure. But then, the following code kicks in: define RTAI_PREPARE_KERNEL $(APPLY_PATCHES) \ $(LINUX_DIR) \ $(dir $(RTAI_PATCH)) \ $(notdir $(RTAI_PATCH)) endef The value of $(dir $(RTAI_PATCH)) will be http://foo.com/bar/. How can $(APPLY_PATCHES) make use of such a stupid patch location?

Add a simple infrastructure for that: - extensions declare themselves in the list of extensions - extensions define their macro - the infra adds them to the patch-dependencies and pre-patch hooks as appropriate Signed-off-by: "Yann E.

2015-04-09linux: fix extensionsYann E. MORIN
Since the move to the kconfig-package infra, linux extensions are broken. In our linux package, extensions are applied as pre-patch hooks. Before the kconfig-package infra, we had custom rules for the linux-*config targets, which were of the form: linux-menuconfig: linux-configure $(MAKE) -C $(LINUX_DIR) menuconfig This caused the linux tree to be fully configured before running the configurators, and thus linux dependencies were entirely fullfilled, and extensions were properly applied. Since we migrated (in dff25ea), the kconfig-package infra introduces a (hidden, internal) intermediate step 'kconfig-fixup' and decorelates the kconfig-part of the configuration from the actual package-part of the configuration: linux-configure -------> kconfig-fixup --> .config --> $(LINUX_CONFIG_FILE) / linux-menuconfig --' As thus, this (very useful!) use-case breaks (starting from a clean Buildroot tree): make menuconfig -> enable a kernel and at least one extension -> save and exit make linux-menuconfig -> extensions are not available Fix that by using the newly-introduced patch-dependencies, so that extensions are available before we try to patch the linux kernel.

2015-04-06packages: apply custom patches using *.patch instead of <pkg>-*.patchThomas Petazzoni
Several packages have some logic to apply custom patches that existed before the BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR mechanism: at91bootstrap, at91bootstrap3, barebox, uboot and linux. Currently, the logic of those packages to apply custom patches is to match <package-name>-*.patch, which is not consistent with what we've done for patches stored in the package directory, and for patches stored in BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR: in such cases, we simply apply *.patch. Therefore, for consistency reasons, this commit changes these packages to also apply *.patch. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> Reviewed-by: "Yann E.

2015-03-30linux: use the package infrastructure to download patchesThomas Petazzoni
The linux package has a special handling of patches, with quite a bit of legacy in it. A problem caused by this special handling is that the linux package calls directly the DOWNLOAD_WGET macro, which means that the package infrastructure isn't aware of which patches get downloaded, and it prevents doing changes inside the package download infrastructure. This commit changes the handling of patches in the linux package in the following way: * The LINUX_PATCHES variable is kept as is: it lists all the patches mentioned in the Config.in option BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_PATCH. This option can contain http://, ftp://, https:// URLs, path to local files or local directories. This variable is *not* used by the generic package infrastructure, so it is purely internal to the Linux package. * The LINUX_PATCH variable is now filled in with the list of patches that should be downloaded. It is derived from LINUX_PATCHES by filtering the patches that have http://, ftp:// or https:// in their path. Since <pkg>_PATCH is handled by the package infrastructure, it means that those patches are now automatically downloaded and applied by the package infrastructure. * The LINUX_APPLY_PATCHES hook is renamed to LINUX_APPLY_LOCAL_PATCHES, because it is now only responsible of applying local patches: remote patches are handled by LINUX_PATCH. The implementation of the hook is changed to filter out the patches that have already taken care of by LINUX_PATCH, so that we only iterate through the list of local patches or local patch directories.
