[PATCH 0/3] yocto-compat-layer: various enhancements + bitbake-diffsigs support

[PATCH 0/3] yocto-compat-layer: various enhancements + bitbake-diffsigs support

[Patrick Ohly]

I started applying yocto-compat-layer to some real BSP layers and ran
into some usability issues with the tool.

I also didn't want to do the root cause analysis manually, so I
automated the dependency analysis and the running of
bitbake-diffsigs.

This patch series is based on Mark's "yocto-compat-layer.py updates"
series. The last commit depends on Paul's "bitbake-diffsigs: add an
option to find and compare specific signatures" patch from
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/commit/?h=paule/sigstuff&id=5bb69edfb4bbaa7373061daeb4f233a7e2f43a43

Regarding the BSP example that I ended up using: it actually was one
of the better BSP layers and only had one problem in a "bitbake world"
build instead of several as in other BSP layers. Nevertheless I
obscured the name to protect the (not so) guilty in the commit
messages ;-}

The two changes that show up in test_signatures look harmless at first
glance, but probably would need to be done differently to avoid a
false positive when doing the signature check.

Patrick Ohly (3):
  yocto-compat-layer: fix also other command invocations
  yocto-compat-layer: limit report of signature changes
  yocto-compat-layer: include bitbake-diffsigs output

[PATCH 1/3] yocto-compat-layer: fix also other command invocations

[Patrick Ohly]

In commit 5b9ac62ab535d, one place was fixed where a command was
invoked such that failures caused double stack traces and stderr was
lost. The same problem also occurs elsewhere, triggered for example by
a layer with parsing problems.

Now a new utility method is used instead of repeating the code.

[PATCH 2/3] yocto-compat-layer: limit report of signature changes

[Patrick Ohly]

Typically a single change cascades through the entire task dependency
chain. Developers had to figure that out themselves, based on hard to
read and interpret output (not sorted, no indention, no explanations):

   $ yocto-compat-layer.py -n meta-xxxx
   ...
   AssertionError: True is not false : Layer meta-xxxx changed signatures.
   webkitgtk:do_install changed fe2edc9082bc0da98f9cb1391c52f565 -> b3a44684c5cd9aacd3f7c6ed88eefab5

   pulseaudio:do_package_qa changed 5d0a58ada66ff17f5576555302ac319a -> 0e13bcb96143d1ae54c451bc3de0aa30
   epiphany:do_prepare_recipe_sysroot changed 29e1b277dbcb005bd54950594c50d91b -> d3c45527b37677a0668ce483c6db3052
   ...
   gst-player:do_packagedata changed 9ce6efdd357dd74919bc4957458b1e95 -> d0c083ce629f37adfc9c4ba9eff81f83
   gstreamer1.0-plugins-base:do_install changed 1161cd867d15bea63e5dd5d9abf0519c -> 5bf2b652a2d77fee3eedb35af2f201a0
   gstreamer1.0-rtsp-server:do_packagedata changed 6781dc3070f80b843ed1970d74dd323e -> 454620c2e3b9fea87e525d14b6ed0344
   alsa-plugins:do_packagedata changed 1808c3f737cb805b169d004e948ea19c -> 480124b7fa5eab1f73bf96440d725231

Now the tool automates the problem analysis: it retrieves the depgraph
using the tinfoil API and only reports those tasks with modified
signatures whose dependencies have not changed, i.e. those tasks which
definitely introduce a change.

From the previous example, that just leaves two tasks that need to be
checked:

   AssertionError: False is not true : Layer meta-xxxx changed 120 signatures, initial differences (first hash without, second with layer):
      gstreamer1.0-plugins-base:do_fetch: 76973f19f2e30d282152bdd7e4efe5bb -> e6e7c6fa9f2bd59d7d8d107f7c6ca1ac
      pulseaudio:do_install: 668eb1e30af129df9806b0aa0d7c10cd -> 1196bdb88eef56eeee4613bb06b9387e

This pruning might be a bit too aggressive in the sense that tasks
which inherit a change and then add more changes themselves won't be
reported initially. They will be found when fixing the reported tasks
and re-running the check.

For a developer it seems better to have something listed which
definitely is a problem and needs fixing instead of everything,
including the tasks which don't need fixes.

[PATCH 3/3] yocto-compat-layer: include bitbake-diffsigs output

[Patrick Ohly]

After filtering out potential false positives, it becomes feasible to
include the output of bitbake-diffsigs for those tasks which
definitely have a change.

Depends on bitbake-diffsigs with the "--signature" parameter.

Enhanced output now is:

   AssertionError: False is not true : Layer meta-xxxx changed 120 signatures, initial differences (first hash without, second with layer):

Patrick, just a minor comment:  there is no need for the 'if' check,
because the try and the except bodies set the output variable.

I added that for the case that the command prints nothing (output ==

BTW, rather than self.assertTrue(False, ... ) you can just use self.fail(...) 
and then you avoid this ugly "False is not True" bit.

I suspected that there must be something like that when changing the
message, but then was too lazy to look it up - thanks for pointing it
out ;-}

I'll change that in a V2.
