Subject: use of yocto-cfg-fragments
Date: Thu, 2 Nov 2023 10:24:29 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <06ec1922fd901a02d492158a995cfbeeb158e379.camel@siemens.com> (raw)

Hello Bruce!

Trying to understand the usage of SRC_URI type=kmeta/kernel-cache in
commits
5c2129118797 ("virtualization/config: allow conditional use of yocto-cfg-fragments")
and 5be8686e659c ("kernel: fix conditional application of fragments").

I have an issue implementing some locally-maintained fragments, I'm adding
"file://features/debug;type=kmeta;destsuffix=features/debug" to SRC_URI in my
kernel recipe derived from kernel-yocto class and this actually works
fine for me until I try to combine this with meta-virtualization.

My current understanding is that
meta-virtualization/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto_virtualization.inc
makes an assumption that any type=kmeta will point to upstream
git://git.yoctoproject.org/yocto-kernel-cache but this doesn't hold
for my use case.

The only type=kmeta is my local file:// storage and the following
linux-yocto_virtualization.inc part leads to fetch failure (fetch
from Internet not expected/forbidden):

# if kernel-yocto has been inherited (how we can check for configuration
# fragment merging suport at the moment, then add a dependency on the
# configuration fragment repository. This allows us to be sure that our
# features can be enabled via the fragments
do_kernel_metadata[depends] += "${@['', 'yocto-cfg-fragments-native:do_populate_sysroot'][(bb.data.inherits_class('kernel-yocto', d))]}"

Summary: 1 task failed:
virtual:native:.../projects/ccp-sd-virt/../../meta-virtualization/recipes-kernel/linux/yocto-cfg-fragments.bb:do_fetch

When I read the comment "if the kernel-yocto meta-data routine automatically
starts to add the recipe-sysroot-native..." I get a feeling that
this feature is still "work in progress". Are there any further developments
I could test in this direction?

What would be a proper resolution of the above type=kmeta usage conflict from
your PoV?
