Subject: [PATCH 0/1] kern-tools: error if features are not found
Date: Thu, 12 May 2011 16:21:15 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1305229934.git.bruce.ashfield@windriver.com> (raw)

Richard/Saul,
    
I'll repeat the patch contents here, since they explain
the change

---->---->---->---->---->---->
Fixes bug: [YOCTO #955]

Updating the SRCREV to pickup the kern-tools change:

[
    updateme: error if features are not found

    Rather than silently dropping addon features, we emit a warning
    and then exit with a failure code. The caller can then abort a
    build and not simply miss features.

    Passing --no-strict to the script disables this new functionality
    if for some reason a feature description is missing on purpose.
]
---->---->---->---->---->---->

This takes care of one thing we hit during 1.0 development,
and provides a clear message about features that are not
part of the kernel being built.

In a test of a forced invalid feature, the output is:

| WARNING: addon feature "cfg/non-exisistent" was not found
| ERROR: required features were not found. aborting

.. and the build stops.

Thanks,
    Bruce Ashfield <bruce.ashfield@windriver.com>
