[PATCH 01/10] Hob: Fix MACHINE setting

[Dongxiao Xu]

Define the empty curr_mach to be "" instead of None.
Fix the judgement for ' if self.curr_mach == "" ' to be
' if self.curr_mach '.
Also set machine to bitbake server when "MACHINE" is not empty.

If values in advanced is changed, we also need to reparse the cache to

[PATCH 03/10] Hob: Remove some calling of initiate_new_build()

[Dongxiao Xu]

initiate_new_build() function is in async mode and could not be called
before another async function.

Also we could not initialize the build if user simply change a setting,
therefore remove this function.

[PATCH 04/10] Hob: Remove duplication for certain bitbake variables

[Dongxiao Xu]

Sometimes, certain variables have duplicated values inside, for example,
IMAGE_FSTYPES = "tar.bz2 ext3 tar.bz2 ext3"

We need to remove the redundancy for those values.

[PATCH 07/10] Hob: Fix toolchain build

[Dongxiao Xu]

Originally we added -dev and -dbg postfixes to our selected packages as
toolchain packages. However, some package names are modified in recipes,
so we could not rely on its base name. The new approach is to detect if
a package is selected, then include those packages under the same recipe
endswith "-dev" and "-dbg".

This fixes [YOCTO #2185]

[PATCH 08/10] Hob: Check "dummy" image while update_image_combo

[Dongxiao Xu]

We also need to check if the selected image is "Create your own image"
and set it as active.

Besides, to avoid the impact of set_active(), we need to move the
connect signal in the end of the update_image_combo() function.

[PATCH 10/10] Hob: fix IMAGE_INSTALL setting while save template

[Dongxiao Xu]

If save every selected package into IMAGE_INSTALL field, and then build
the saved bb file by bitbake command line, it will report errors since
some packages could not be found since they are dynamically generated.
With this commit, Hob will only save those packages into the
IMAGE_INSTALL variable which are brought in by user.

Re: [PATCH 09/10] Hob: Change base image to "Create your own image" if customized

[Barros Pena, Belen]

From the design side of things, I am not sure this is a good idea. I've
explicitly selected 'base image x'. If I then customise it, I still think
I am working on 'base image x'. I might not understand why my selection of
base image has been changed automatically. In general, it is not a good
idea to have software that changes things I do of its own accord. Such
behaviours undermine the sense of control users should have when
interacting with software.

What we want is to change the item in the base image combo. The target image is still based on the base image the user selected plus delta.
We have the strict definition for the predefined base images. For instance, sato includes 300 recipes.
An image including 299 recipes is not called sato but your own image (say, sato-minus)

The reason why we do that is because for templates, we will remember the item in the image combo as the base image in some bb file, and we also remember what we selected for the recipes and the packages. However, the base image covers all of them by default and because of that, bitbake can't recognize the delta and will include all (300 recipes), which causes the wrong behavior.

Re: [PATCH 09/10] Hob: Change base image to "Create your own image" if customized

[Barros Pena, Belen]

Thanks for explaining, Shane. I now understand why you are doing it, but
people using Hob will not have the benefit of your explanation. They will
just see they selected a base image, made a small change to that base
image and when they go back to the Image configuration screen, Hob has
changed the base image they selected of its own accord.

Could the template have some "hidden" information indicating if a base
image has been customised and therefore the default contents of the base
image should be ignored and replaced with the remembered recipes and
packages? This way the template would still work, but Hob users will still
see their selected base image.

Though the base image is changed to "Create your own image", however all
the contents in the base image (except those customized) are still
there. If user changes recipes/packages, actually they are trying to
create their own image not a base image.

Base image is also a recipe, so we could not ignore its related recipes,
unless we switch to a new one whose dependency recipes/packages are
None. Otherwise, it will change the core base of the Hob logic.

I don't think so, Dongxiao: for BitBake, the user is trying to create
their own image. For me (Hob user) I am trying to create
core-image-minimal without recipe x.

But I see we are going to get into one of those circular arguments. We
need evidence that this is a problem. Until I can provide you with that, I
accept the easiest way to handle this is changing the user selection to
"Create your own image" when customisation happens.

What a hard life ;)

Re: [PATCH 09/10] Hob: Change base image to "Create your own image" if customized

[Wang, Shane]

Dongxiao suggested another solution. If any recipe is removed from or added into the list.
The base image could be changed into e.g. "core-image-minimal *" or "core-image-minimal-changed" to indicates the set is based on core-image-minimal.
Technically, what we want is to change the base image name, we can't reuse "core-image-minimal".

Re: [PATCH 09/10] Hob: Change base image to "Create your own image" if customized

[Barros Pena, Belen]

I see what you are trying to do, but I think this solution also has
problems. Would the Base image combo box have to include a .*-changed item
for every single base image?

If yes, what happens when I select one of those .*-changed options and I
don't customise the image?

If not, wouldn't it be weird to see the base image combo set to an option
that was not initially listed?

Cheers

Belen
