[PATCH 1/1] sstate.bbclass: remove previous version's stamp

[Robert Yang]

There is a potential problem if we don't remove the previous version's
stamp, for example:

The depend chain is:
libtool-native -> autoconf-native -> m4-native
We have two m4-native: 1.4.9 and 1.4.7

1) Clean all of them to make a fresh build so that we can reproduce the
   problem
$ bitbake m4-native autoconf-native libtool-native -ccleansstate

2) Build libtool-native so that the m4-native_1.4.17 will be built
$ bitbake libtool-native

3) Set PREFERRED_VERSION_m4-native = "1.4.9" and build again
$ bitbake libtool-native

4) Set PREFERRED_VERSION_m4-native = "1.4.17" and build again
$ bitbake libtool-native -ccleansstate && bitbake libtool-native

Then the build will fail:
[snip]
| m4: unrecognized option '--gnu'
| Try `m4 --help' for more information.
| autom4te: m4 failed with exit status: 1
[snip]

The is because when we change m4-native to 1.4.17 and build
libtool-native again:
5) libtool-native depends on autoconf-native, and autoconf-native's
   version isn't change, so it can remove the current stamp and mirror
   the sstate (the one depends on m4-native_1.4.9) from the SSTATE_DIR
   correctly.

6) The mirrored autoconf-native depends on m4-native_1.4.17's
   do_populate_sysroot, and the stamp is already there (which is made
   by step 2), so it would do nothing, but this is incorrect, since
   the one that really in the sysroot is m4-native_1.4.9, then the
   error happens.

Remove previous version's stamp in sstate_clean() will fix the problem.

I'm not sure its worth the overhead of using regexps here. Can we not do
something simple like:

if ".sigdata." not in stfile:

Sorry Robert, there is one more issue here. You're doing "do_%s*" but
this can match multiple tasks, e.g. do_package* would also wipe out
do_package_write_ipk, do_package_write_rpm etc.

The easiest way to handle this is probably in the for loop, making sure
that do_<task>. or do_<task>_setscene. are in the filename.

It might be worth putting some comments in the code about these
subtleties. 

Cheers,

Richard

[PATCH 1/1] sstate.bbclass: remove previous version's stamp

[Robert Yang]

There is a potential problem if we don't remove the previous version's
stamp, for example:

The depend chain is:
libtool-native -> autoconf-native -> m4-native
We have two m4-native: 1.4.9 and 1.4.7

1) Clean all of them to make a fresh build so that we can reproduce the
   problem
$ bitbake m4-native autoconf-native libtool-native -ccleansstate

2) Build libtool-native so that the m4-native_1.4.17 will be built
$ bitbake libtool-native

3) Set PREFERRED_VERSION_m4-native = "1.4.9" and build again
$ bitbake libtool-native

4) Set PREFERRED_VERSION_m4-native = "1.4.17" and build again
$ bitbake libtool-native -ccleansstate && bitbake libtool-native

Then the build will fail:
[snip]
| m4: unrecognized option '--gnu'
| Try `m4 --help' for more information.
| autom4te: m4 failed with exit status: 1
[snip]

The is because when we change m4-native to 1.4.17 and build
libtool-native again:
5) libtool-native depends on autoconf-native, and autoconf-native's
   version isn't change, so it can remove the current stamp and mirror
   the sstate (the one depends on m4-native_1.4.9) from the SSTATE_DIR
   correctly.

6) The mirrored autoconf-native depends on m4-native_1.4.17's
   do_populate_sysroot, and the stamp is already there (which is made
   by step 2), so it would do nothing, but this is incorrect, since
   the one that really in the sysroot is m4-native_1.4.9, then the
   error happens.

Remove previous version's stamp in sstate_clean() will fix the problem.

[PATCH 1/1] sstate.bbclass: remove previous version's stamp

[Robert Yang]

There is a potential problem if we don't remove the previous version's
stamp, for example:

The depend chain is:
libtool-native -> autoconf-native -> m4-native
We have two m4-native: 1.4.9 and 1.4.7

1) Clean all of them to make a fresh build so that we can reproduce the
   problem
$ bitbake m4-native autoconf-native libtool-native -ccleansstate

2) Build libtool-native so that the m4-native_1.4.17 will be built
$ bitbake libtool-native

3) Set PREFERRED_VERSION_m4-native = "1.4.9" and build again
$ bitbake libtool-native

4) Set PREFERRED_VERSION_m4-native = "1.4.17" and build again
$ bitbake libtool-native -ccleansstate && bitbake libtool-native

Then the build will fail:
[snip]
| m4: unrecognized option '--gnu'
| Try `m4 --help' for more information.
| autom4te: m4 failed with exit status: 1
[snip]

The is because when we change m4-native to 1.4.17 and build
libtool-native again:
5) libtool-native depends on autoconf-native, and autoconf-native's
   version isn't change, so it can remove the current stamp and mirror
   the sstate (the one depends on m4-native_1.4.9) from the SSTATE_DIR
   correctly.

6) The mirrored autoconf-native depends on m4-native_1.4.17's
   do_populate_sysroot, and the stamp is already there (which is made
   by step 2), so it would do nothing, but this is incorrect, since
   the one that really in the sysroot is m4-native_1.4.9, then the
   error happens.

Remove previous version's stamp in sstate_clean() will fix the problem.

You can't do this, the extrainf data *is* important since for tasks
which are machine specific, you must not trample on another machine's
stamp files.

Please use STAMPCLEAN here instead of STAMP, setup an appropriate glob
or two glob expressions based on that, search for it, then iterate the
result and only delete anything that doesn't have sigdata in it.

Cheers,

Richard
