Recipe file of Python 2.7.4 of later version

Recipe file of Python 2.7.4 of later version

[harsh jain]

Hi,


Python version 2.7.3 is not compatible with AARCH64
architecture.Support for AARCH64 is added in 2.7.4 onwards._ctypes.so
is not compiled by  2.7.3 python version for AARCH64.

1 ) Can we have recipe file of  2.7.4 or later version. If yes from
where i can download.
2 ) There are several other python package which have build dependancy
on 2.7.3 version.When I try to install 2.7.4 using custom build recipe
file these dependencies give warning message.Is there any global
setting in configuration file to solve this issue.

Is there any other to update the python in build system?

Thanks  and Regards
Harsh Jain

It's past the feature freeze which means we won't merge upgrades, but
I imagine its fairly simple to identify the patches in 2.7.4 which
enable aarch64.

Also Kai (CCed) is going to maintain an aarch64 branch on:
   http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/linux-yocto-contrib
Kai, let us know when your branch is available; hopefully that
will be early next week.

This branch will be continually rebased on master over the next
month or so and then merged to master after 1.7 is branched.
Patches welcome. They should be submitted here on the oe-core
list with an aarch64 tag in the subject line and CCing Kai please.

Great news, thanks Randy and Kai.

(did you mean poky-contrib instead of linux-yocto-contrib?)

I put the git repository at:

   git://git.pokylinux.org/poky-contrib kangkai/qemuarm64
   http://git.pokylinux.org/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/log/?h=kangkai/qemuarm64


It is ok to build world except 2 known issues.  One depends on valid 
linux-yocto configs,
the other one is libunwind issue which should exclude from world for 
aarch64. And some
patches from Joe Slater are needed too. Joe has sent them to oe-core. If 
not merged, I'll
stage these patches too.

For the kernel support, Zhe has sent the patch to linux-yocto to support 
aarch64. Bruce knows this work.
