[Buildroot] [pull request v5] Pull request for branch yem-host-image-tools

[Yann E. MORIN]

Hello All!

This series adds a few host packages usefull for manipulating the
generated filesystem images.

It is of much interest now that the post-image series from Thomas
has been applied.

I plan on submitting sample post-{build,image} scripts demonstrating
use of those packages in the (hopefuly near) future (my current scripts
are working great, but need some cleanup first).


Changes v4 -> v5:
  -  add licensing terms  (Thomas)

Changes v3 -> v4:
  - rebased on master

Changes v2 -> v3:
  - rebased onto the 'next' branch for Peter

Changes v1 -> v2:
  - use $(HOST_CONFIGURE_OPTS) instead of hand-crafted CC et al.  (Thomas)
  - use $(BR2_GNU_MIRROR)  (Thomas)
  - strip superfluous spaces  (Thomas)


The following changes since commit eaf746eb9e8b10d5ff5011a989014b3df4b31ddc:

  zeromq: add PGM/EPGM support (2013-03-17 16:03:40 +0100)

I think this is not a good reason to not add the license. We already
have it in a number of packages that have a host variant. It should be
something for the licensing infrastructure to handle.

I am a bit uneasy at adding licensing information for packages that are
purely host packages.

As you said in your other mail, this might confuse a user reviewing the
licensing terms.
But I will add it.

Thank you!

Even though it is a host package, we could add:

GENIMAGE_LICENSE = GPLv2

Unfortunately, there is no license file.

... these tools are intended to be used by post-image scripts, so
boards could provide both a genimage layout and a post-image script.

I am not sure we would want to integrate that into buildroot itself.
I am afraid doing so would complexify the infrastructure.

Also, the fakeroot jail is restricted to the filesystem image generation,
and post-image (and post-build) scripts are *not* run in the fakeroot,
although it is trivial to re-enter a new fakeroot from inside such a
post-{build,image} script, a-la:

    #!/bin/sh
    if [ $(id -u) -ne 0 ]; then
        exec fakeroot "${0}" "${@}"
    fi

Yann E. MORIN.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 4/6] package/genimage: new host-only package

[Jeremy Rosen]

do you plan to integrate this more tightly into buildroot ?

i.e : for boards that need a particular partition layout have them provide a decription file for genimage and have genimage called directly from the fakeroot jail when such a file is configured ?

that would be awesome for boards like the raspberry pi...
