Paul Eggleton 25441f47ca bitbake: bitbake: tweak help text for -C slightly
What is specified is a command (or "cmd" as in the help text for -f)
rather than a task - i.e. you specify compile, not do_compile, so change
the sentence to reflect that and reorder it slightly so it makes sense.

Richard Purdie eaf54b8dbf bitbake.conf/abi_version.conf: Update to use BasicHash signature generator
This switches to use the hash based signature generatior and update
layout_abi to match stamp file layout changes.

Angstrom and Poky did this a while ago. This brings the OE-Core defaults
into line with what is the best common practise at this point. Its been
discussed on the mailing lists and by the TSC at length, this just completes
the transition.

Richard Purdie df0059b465 bitbake: fetch2: Update replace_uri to handle uri types explicitly
For mirror mapping, we never use regexps for the type component of
the url. Doing so causes various slightly bizarre behaviour such as
https:// urls being translated to files:// urls which we have no handler
for. This patch forces the type matches to be direct, not regexp based
and gives the expected bahvriour.

Richard Purdie 20649e95ed bitbake: fetch2: Improve mirror looping to consider more cases
Currently we only consider one pass through the mirror list. This doesn't
catch cases where for example you might want to setup a mirror of a mirror
and allow multiple redirection. There is no reason we can't support this
and the patch loops through the list recursively now.

As a safeguard, it will stop if any duplicate urls are found, hence
avoiding circular dependency looping.

Paul Eggleton c072fa8400 bitbake: bitbake: add -C option to invalidate a task and rebuild the target
This new command line option forces the specified task and all dependent
tasks up to the default task to re-run. This means that the following
single step:

bitbake -C compile somerecipe

is equivalent to the following two steps (with the recent change to -f):

bitbake -c compile -f somerecipe
bitbake somerecipe

Note that to work this option needs full hashing enabled (i.e.
BB_SIGNATURE_HANDLER must be set to a signature handler that inherits
from BasicHash). If this is not the case, -C effectively does nothing.

Based on a previous implementation of this option by Jason Wessel
<jason.wessel@windriver.com>.

Implements [YOCTO #2615].

Paul Eggleton 5bd11a9bf3 bitbake: bitbake: ensure -f causes dependent tasks to be re-run
If -f is specified, force dependent tasks to be re-run next time. This
works by changing the force behaviour so that instead of deleting the
task's stamp, we write a "taint" file into the stamps directory, which
will alter the taskhash randomly and thus trigger the task to re-run
next time we evaluate whether or not that should be done as well as
influencing the taskhashes of any dependent tasks so that they are
similarly re-triggered. As a bonus because we write this file as
<stamp file name>.taskname.taint, the existing code which deletes the
stamp files in OE's do_clean will already handle removing it.

This means you can now do the following:

bitbake somepackage
[ change the source code in the package's WORKDIR ]
bitbake -c compile -f somepackage
bitbake somepackage

and the result will be that all of the tasks that depend on do_compile
(do_install, do_package, etc.) will be re-run in the last step.

Note that to operate in the manner described above you need full hashing
enabled (i.e. BB_SIGNATURE_HANDLER must be set to a signature handler
that inherits from BasicHash). If this is not the case, -f will just
delete the stamp for the specified task as it did before.

This fix is required for [YOCTO #2615] and [YOCTO #2256].

since the mapping done in kernel-arch works and we can
consolidate all arch mapping code in a single place.

Bruce Ashfield d227070192 recipes-kernel: remove linux-tools.inc
perf has been moved to a standalone package, making linux-tools.inc
unecessary. It can now be removed and recipes that included it
updated.

Liang Li 6b9c19140c recipes-kernel: make perf a standalone package
perf has been coupled to the kernel packages via kernel.bbclass.
While maintaining the build of perf out of the kernel source tree
is desired the package coupling has proved to be awkward in
several situations such as:

  - when a kernel recipe doesn't want to build/provide perf
  - when licensing of dependencies would prohibit perf and hence
    the kernel from being built.

To solve some of these problems, this recipe is the extraction of
the linux-tools.inc provided perf compilation into a standalone
perf recipe that builds out of the kernel source, but is otherwise
independent.

No new functionality is provided above what the linux-tools.inc
variant provided, but the separate recipe provides baseline for
adding new functionality.
