[PATCH 1/3] netbase: automatically bring up eth0

[Paul Eggleton]

From: Paul Eggleton <paul.eggleton@linux.intel.com>

This avoids manual configuration for those machines that do not override
the default /etc/network/interfaces file.

[PATCH 2/3] netbase: automatically bring up usb0 on beagleboard

[Paul Eggleton]

From: Paul Eggleton <paul.eggleton@linux.intel.com>

Avoids manual configuration of the BeagleBoard xM's ethernet port (which
shows up as usb0).

I know this time would come!

So this is up for discussion in a big way!

There was some initial discussion at ELC this last week about what goes 
where and how layers are going to work moving forward.  I know that we 
are committed to the qemu* machines in oe-core (meta), and that 
currently meta-yocto contains a set of core HW (beagleboard among them), 
so the question then is should the HW specific stuff, such as this patch 
move to meta-yocto or some other layer?  There are a couple other 
recipes such as x-load and formfactor that contain HW specific files.

I believe and others will have to confirm this, that some distros may 
want to use these core files, but not via meta-yocto as a layer, or do 
those distros have these files modified differently (ie, not just 
copies, which would be bad).

This is all food for thought.

Sau!

That is the goal, yes. It was agreed that until we sort out the layer
tooling, there would be some code in meta-yocto which would be a copy of
various upstream parts which includes beagleboard. Over time I'm hoping
to see these pieces converge, then we when get the tooling right it will
become automated.

Ah, yes, you're right - we definitely don't want this file in oe-core. I should 
have pushed this particular patch to meta-yocto (in support of the 
basic/temporary beagleboard support we have there), so please ignore this one.

You mean meta-texasinstruments, right? Or do you yocto folks keep going to deny that there's an upstream layer for beagleboard support? If so, that doesn't bode well for manufacturers wanting to support their boards that overlap with boards in meta-yocto.

which I'd hardly call denial. There is a plan indicated above which we

This 

>>>  I should 
>>> have pushed this particular patch to meta-yocto 

bit from Pauls email indicates a problem. Since that is not pushing to upstream first (implied by the use of 'copy'), but keeping fixes only in the yocto layer.

One step at a time. Getting pieces in roughly the right places is a good
start, then we can look at syncing up any differences.

I can start jumping up and down every time someone duplicates something
in meta-oe to be synced "later" if it would help? ;-)

I'd like to hope we can try and be a little less confrontational. A
simple request asking "could you ensure this gets submitted to
meta-texasinstruments" would have made things clear.

Cheers,

Richard

That would actually be very helpfull, there's too much crud in there that needs a cleanup. Which is slowly improving, though :)

Since we're adding a this specifically for the beagleboard, I don't see
the value of adding eth0 or eth1. I'm not sure about wifi and bluetooth,
I believe there are modules out there.

I suppose it doesn't hurt to have them there as examples.

eth1 yes, but doesn't the BeagleBoard xM have eth0?

No. The onboard device is usb0.

Perhaps I am missing some context, but I don't see any problem with
having the name usb0. In fact, I find it informative, and helps to
explain why things like tftp don't work from u-boot, etc.

While the community remains divided, I plan to stay in the usb0 camp.
