I'm trying to understand the concept of creating a recipe and

included in the build I do.

For example, suppose I want to create the
meta-intel/meta-cedartrail BSP
with the core-image-minimal image, but I wanted to include hello world
as shown in 3.1.2 Autotooled Package section of the Poky reference
Manual.

Where do I put the recipe file? I'm guessing a recipe-jfa directory at
the same level as the meta-cedartrail recipe-core, recipe-kernel,
recipe-graphic, recipe-bsp?

Hi Jim,

The best way to do this is to create your own layer, and keep all of
your customizations there.

You'd put this in a directory, say meta-jfa with something like the
following:

meta-jfa/
meta-jfa/conf/layer.conf
meta-jfa/recipes-jfa/helloworld/helloworld.bb

where your layer.conf file would look like:

# We have a conf and classes directory, add to BBPATH
BBPATH := "${BBPATH}:${LAYERDIR}"

# We have a packages directory, add to BBFILES
BBFILES := "${BBFILES} ${LAYERDIR}/recipes-*/*/*.bb \
${LAYERDIR}/recipes-*/*/*.bbappend"

BBFILE_COLLECTIONS += "jfa"
BBFILE_PATTERN_jfa := "^${LAYERDIR}/"
BBFILE_PRIORITY_jfa = "5"

Then point your build's bblayers.conf file to include the path to your
meta-jfa/ directory.


I'm also assuming that helloworld.bb file would contain:

DESCRIPTION = "GNU Helloworld application"
SECTION = "examples"
LICENSE = "GPLv2+"
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM =
"file://COPYING;md5=751419260aa954499f7abaabaa882bbe"
PR = "r0"

SRC_URI = "${GNU_MIRROR}/hello/hello-${PV}.tar.gz"

inherit autotools gettext


So where do the values of ${GNU_MIRROR|, and ${PV} get set correctly?

Those examples are defined in the bitbake classes you have in your
base layers.

And what does the following line do or require me to do:

LIC_FILES_CHKSUM =
"file://COPYING;md5=751419260aa954499f7abaabaa882bbe"

This was answered in another post.

Is this all that is needed to get helloworld put into /usr/bin so
it can
be executed at the command line when the image is booted?

You'd also need to add the helloworld package to your image file. The
simplest way to do this is to add EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES += "helloworld"
in your build's local.conf file.

I think the above should be accurate enough w/o testing it myself.

I got the layer created like you said, but the test had a fetch problem
and it just locked up there. Had to control-C out of it. Console below:

If you look in:

ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/hello/

you'll see which versions are available. Rename your recipe filename
to reflect the version you wish to use, for example helloworld_2.7.bb

The part of the filename after the underscore is what will get
interpolated into ${PV}.

Scott

Now I have gotten by the fetching but the license file information in
the .bb file from the example is incorrect. I can't see from the
Reference manual License section enough information for me to create
that line in the .bb file. What is the process to figure this out?

In this case, the LIC_FILES_CHKSUM is storing the md5sum of the COPYING file, which is stored in the top-level directory of the extracted sources.

So manually download the hello version you are trying to use, extract the tarball locally, and run md5sum against the COPYING file. Then update the LIC_FILES_CHKSUM field with that
new md5 checksum.

This is a common process we have to go through when upgrading recipes, so you're getting a taste of what working with the distro/metadata team is like. :)

One more thing - when LIC_FILES_CHKSUM changes, you should always verify that the license for the sources haven't changed (in this case GPL v2 or later). If it did change, you'd
also need to change the LICENSE field in the recipe to reflect the new license. LIC_FILES_CHKSUM is a step we added so we don't miss license changes.

I use the attached script to automate this - it puts the files
in the correct format (modulo a little path massaging if necessary).

What I do when I run across these problems is this:
  % bitbake <recipe>
  ... fails with LIC_FILES_CHKSUM errors
  % make_LIC_FILES_CHECKSUM tmp/work/<path-to-recipe-tree>/<LICENSE_FILES>
  e.g.
    (cd tmp/work/armv7a-vfp-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi/helloworld-2.7-r0/helloworld-2.7/;make_LIC_FILES_CHECKSUM COPYING)
Cut & paste the output into your recipe and rebuild.

The script makes it much simpler to do this when multiple
files are involved.
