[PATCH 0/5] Enable swabber integration for host-contamination detection

[PATCH 0/5] Enable swabber integration for host-contamination detection

[Joshua Lock]

This set of patches adds a user class to do host-contamination detection
whilst
building a Poky image.

The class uses a bitbake-runtask wrapper script which wraps calls to
bitbake-runtask in strace and logs the strace output for later
processing.
Similar to rm_work the class adds an extra task at the end of the build
to run
the swabber tool over the strace logs and generate a contamination
report.

The classes disables PARALLEL_MAKE on several packages which refused to
run
under strace with parallelism enabled.

I have succesfully built all packages in poky-image-minimal under strace
with
this patchset.

The final two patches in the series update the version of swabber to the
latest
git HEAD and updates the command in the class to work with this
revision.
The hard coded paths are undesirable and don't work reliably across
distributions, for example Fedora 14 ships Python 2.7. They will be
removed 
when a future swabber update includes provisioning for handling such
things
through configuration files.

Hi Josh,

Did you send this with send-pull-request? If so, what are you using for 
sendmail. The patches didn't come through as replies to the cover letter 
- I need to understand why and see if I can address it.

Thanks,

I did not, nothing to understand ;-)

I generated with create-pull-request and then realised that configuring
a sendmail compatible MUA would take more than a few minutes, as it was
getting late into Friday evening I cheated and used Evolution.

Cheers,
Joshua
