Xorg driver isn't built

Xorg driver isn't built

[Carlos Rafael Giani]

Hello,

I saw something curious yesterday while trying to run an X11 image.

I built core-image-x11 with latest yocto master & meta-fsl-arm master. I 
then saw that the X11 driver was not included in the image. Neither was 
the EXA module.

When trying to run bitbake xf86-video-imxfb-vivante , I got :

ERROR: xf86-video-imxfb-vivante-3_5.0.11.p8.4-r0 do_package_qa: QA 
Issue: No GNU_HASH in the elf binary:

[ldflags]

I then copied vivante_drv.so and libexa.so to the board, and X11 worked.

Any ideas regarding why this happened? Is this a known current problem?

oe-core master does a few tricks to ensure that recipes are respecting
LDFLAGS, and this is what happens if they are not.  For some reason, this
driver isn't using the LDFLAGS that are being passed in the build (or, it's
a binary driver and the test should be skipped).

Well, the GNU_HASH issue is gone. But the driver and the exa module 
still aren't being copied over when I build core-image-x11. I again had 
to copy them over manually to get X to work.

This does appear like a bug to me.

No, in fact it is not a bug.

What happens is that master defaults for XWayland when X11 and Wayland
is available on an i.MX6 device. To get plain X11 drop the Wayland
DISTRO_FEATURE.
