[PATCH 1/1] qemu-native: depends on libxext-native when enable sdl

[Robert Yang]

Fixed do_configure error:

ERROR: User requested feature sdl
       configure was not able to find it.
       Install SDL devel

The error message from log.do_configure, and if we check config.log, the
error is:

sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/lib/libXext.so.6: undefined reference to `_XEatDataWords'

The _XEatDataWords is provided by libX11.so, the dependencies are:

qemu-native -> sdl(from the host) -> libXext.so(maybe host or native) -> libX11.so (maybe host or native)

For example on Ubuntu 12.04 x86_64, the link route is:

qemu-native's do_configure sdl checking:
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libSDL.so --> <sysroots>/x86_64-linux/usr/lib/libXext.so.6 --> /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libX11.so

So it is:
host sdl -> sysroot libXext.so.6 -> host X11.so

qemu-native doesn't depend on libxext-native, so the error would happen
if the libx11-native is being rebuilding and the host's libX11.so
doesn't have _XEatDataWords.

Manually reproduce it on Ubuntu 12.04 x86_64:

$ bitbake qemu-native libx11-native libxext-native
$ bitbake qemu-native libx11-native -ccleansstate && bitbake qemu-native

Note, only qemu-native has this problem since libxext depends on libX11,
and SDL would depend on libxext when x11 is enabled.

Can't we just make this:

PACKAGECONFIG[sdl] = "--enable-sdl,--disable-sdl,libsdl libxext,"

?

As far as I can tell that should also avoid the problem? We'd obviously
need a comment to explain it?

Cheers,

Richard

I'm afraid not, target sdl depends on libx11 (libxext) optionally, if we use
this, the libxext will always be built when sdl is enabled, but it doesn't
have to.

For native, libsdl-native is in ASSUME_PROVIDED, the link chain is:

host sdl -> host libXext.so.6 -> host X11.so

this is right since all of libs are on the host,  or if libxext-native
has been built, then:

host sdl -> sysroot libXext.so.6 -> sysroot X11.so

This is right, too, but qemu-native doesn't depend on libxext-native,
so libx11-native can be missed (for example, when rebuilding) when
we rebuild qemu-native, then we may meet errors, the link chain is:

host sdl -> sysroot libXext.so.6 -> host X11.so

For example:
$ bitbake qemu-native libx11-native libxext-native
# Everything is ready in the sysroot (the order doesn't matter)

$ bitbake qemu-native libx11-native -ccleansstate
# The libx11-native is removed from sysroot

$ bitbake qemu-native
# Build qemu-native again, only qemu-native will be built since it
# doesn't depend on libx11-native, then we may see the errors as the
# link chain shows.

I've updated a comment in the patch, and also updated in the git repo,
please feel free to let me know if there is anything questions:

git://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core-contrib rbt/qemu

+# The libxext is optional for target sdl, so only add libxext-native in
+# qemu-native's DEPENDS when sdl is enabled to fix potential build
+# failures.
+NATIVEDEPS = ""
+NATIVEDEPS_class-native = "libxext-native"
+PACKAGECONFIG[sdl] = "--enable-sdl,--disable-sdl,libsdl ${NATIVEDEPS},"

Re: [PATCH 0/1] qemu-native: depends on libxext-native when enable sdl

[Robert Yang]

Ping, I think that it can fix qemu-native's build error on Yocto's AB:

     ERROR: User requested feature sdl
            configure was not able to find it.
            Install SDL devel
