The PACKAGECONFIG flags were iterated over using dict.items(), but this
returns the items in an undefined order. As this order determines the
EXTRA_OECONF append order, we can get EXTRA_OECONF which are functionally
equivalent, but whose contents differ, resulting in not using shared state
archives we should be using.

If the same username exists on both target and the build host, but
the uids differ, and we start target via NFS, then the uid for the
user will be incorrect on target.

For example, if postfix's uid on host is 119 and on target is 1024,
then if we start target via NFS, the uid for postfix will be 119.

The root cause is that when we use runqemu-extract-sdk to generate
the NFS rootfs for later use, the tar command will respect the username
instead of uid. So if PSEUDO_PASSWD environment is not set correctly,
the host /etc/passwd will be used, resulting in wrong uids.

The situation for gid is completely analogous to that of uid.

It's almost impossible for the runqemu-extract-sdk to guess the correct
location of the needed password file merely based on the target tarball
name.

This patch solves this problem by adding the '--numeric-owner' option
to the tar command so that the uid/gid will be used when extracting the
tarball using runqemu-extract-sdk. In this situation, we'll always get
the correct uid/gid after extracting the tarball.

Python 2.4 does not support the 'b' string literal or the
keyword 'as' in exception handling. Python 3 does not accept
the old method of exception handling and defaults to unicode.
The b() function converts strings to bytes on Python 3 and
using sys.exc_info() avoids the exception handling syntax.

As this daemon drops a pid file,simply use that instead.
Also add some initialization checks so the daemons are not
left partially started in the absence of kernel nfsd support.

…eads

nfsserver restart without killing kernel threads worked when portmap
was the rpc publishing process and portmap was restarted.
When rpcbind replaces portmap, nfsserver restart in this way does not
work after an rpcbind restart.

Steps to reproduce:
1). Make ext3 filesystem image on local host.
cd /root
dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=1024K count=50
mkfs.ext3 -F test

2). runqemu qemux86-64
mkdir /mnt/wrtest
mount -t ext3 -o loop test /mnt/wrtest
echo "/mnt/wrtest *(sync,rw,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash)" > /etc/exports
/etc/init.d/rpcbind restart
/etc/init.d/nfsserver restart
showmount -e localhost
mkdir wrtest
mount -t nfs localhost:/mnt/wrtest wrtest

mount: mounting localhost:/mnt/wrtest on wrtest failed: Connection refused

Modifying the nfsserver script to kill and restart kernel threads on
restart makes the problem go away and is consistent with current
RHEL/SUSE and Ubuntu/Debian mechanisms of handling the nfs server.

When installing the SDK to another location than the default one, qmake
will look for libraries, headers, etc. in the default location. That's
because the paths are hard-coded in the binary itself. Luckily, QT
allows to override this using a qt.conf file installed in the same
directory with the application executable. However, we already have a
patch that allows for the installation of qt.conf in another place and
read the location from QT_CONF_PATH environment variable.

Hence, install qt.conf in ${sysconfdir}. This will allow other apps, that
use QLibraryInfo class, to find it.

While ELF_C_RDWR_MMAP was used, elf_begin invoked mmap() to map file
into memory. While the file's bss Offset has a large number, elf_update
caculated file size by __elf64_updatenull_wrlock and the size was
enlarged.

In this situation, elf_update invoked ftruncate to enlarge the file,
and memory size (elf->maximum_size) also was incorrectly updated.
There was segment fault in elf_end which invoked munmap with the
length is the enlarged file size, not the mmap's length.

Before the above operations, invoke elf_begin/elf_update/elf_end
with ELF_C_RDWR and ELF_F_LAYOUT set to enlarge the above file, it
could make sure the file is safe for the following elf operations.

When using the tar executable in the buildtools, tar will execute
gzip. If this happens before zlib-native is built, then the gzip
on the host will be used and can fail if the libz in the buildtools
is not compatible. Adding pigz to the build tools avoids this host
contamination.

    systemd-compat-units: Use correct run-postinsts script link

    OE-Core commit 75a1492 has moved
    run-postinsts script execution from S98 to S99 in rcS.d. run-postinsts.service
    should check for this script and run it on first boot rather than
    S98run-postinsts, which is for opkg/dpkg.

the link was corrected but the mentioned commit is not available. Instead of
reverting, we use the same variable as opkg for init script ordering and drop
a note in case somebody wants to change default.

Roll our own class which gives us much more control over the
installation process and creation of the grub config.

LuvOS is intended to be an automated testing tool. Thus, it does really
require much interaction from the user other than inserting the bootable
media, and removing it when tests are complete. Thus, we inform better
to the user what to do when the tests are complete.

Rather than hardcoding the package version, utilize the PV variable
to define the configure path. This will prevent build issues
when moving to a newer version.

This patch was merged in V14.07.00 of fwts but we're currently on
V14.03.01.

We're seeing microcode test failures on a number of Haswell machines,
which shouldn't really be failures. This patch from upstream fixes that.

We've no need to turn a data structure on the stack into a pointer and
use get_user() on a kernel address, and in fact, doing so is likely to
return -EFAULT, because the argument isn't a valid user address.

This bug was introduced in commit c2268a9 ("fwts: Copied the
structure from userland locally in kernel space"), and causes a
uefirttime failure.

Things don't work across the board right now, anyhow. People have even
experienced hangs, and there's no way we can diagnose those hangs
without displaying the test log on the screen.

It's not ideal, and going forward we definitely need to satisfy both
requirements (easy debugging and pretty graphics), but if need to pick
one or the other, easy debugging wins every time.

Providing verbose kernel output on the serial console during boot is a
useful way to debug issues. It also provides a much more informative
message of what is currently happening.

Enable both the standard ttyS0 device and ttyPCH0 which is the device
used on the Intel Minnowboard.

There's some latency somewhere in the test result pipeline, and it's
impossible to trace noticable hangs when writing test results to the
console to the offending unit test.

Just simplify the pipeline, and pipe the result output directly to the
console and results files instead of passing it through another instance
of gawk before it hits the console, since hunting down buffer-related
delays in gawk is extremely tedious.

There's no user-visible change with this patch - it's preparatory work
for a later patch that aggressively flushes the gawk output buffer.

The internal buffering that gawk does makes the test output pretty
useless, because it's not always possible to tell which test is
currently running. For example, a test may have completed but the output
will not appear on the screen until the output buffer fills and is
subsequently flushed. Effectively all the unit test results from a
single test suite are output as one block.

The wakealarm test from fwts provides a good illustration of the
user-visible problem. This test takes a number of seconds to complete,
but because all the fwts results are output in one go, it's not possible
to attribute delays to any one individual unit test.

Explicitly flush all open file descriptors and pipes anytime that we
print something from gawk.

This gives much better user interaction when looking at the serial
console because it's now possible to figure out which tests have the
longest latencies.

Whenever a unit test begins execution a message will be printed on the
serial console immediately, e.g.

      [+] wakealarm...

and when it finishes (in this case after multiple seconds) the result
will be printed too,

      [+] wakealarm... passed

As more LUV versions are released and the user base grows, it is important to
know which particular version of LUV a given user is running. Knowing the
version makes it easier to provide support and comments regarding bugs and
supported features.

Containing a summary of all the tests, luv.results is a good place to print
the LUV version. The version is pulled from the /etc/issue file, which is
updated with every release.

While here, update also the welcome message in the console to depict the
LUV version.

Windows will not mount and display more than one partition on a
removable disk.

Make the results partiion the first partition on the image so that users
are able to easily find the test results. Having this one partition
restriction isn't a problem otherwise, since there's little value in
auto-mounting the other partition (the EFI System Partition) anyway.

Of course, we're assuming firmware is smart enough to find the EFI
System Partition based on the partition table.

Fixes issue intel#23.

If no file system type is specified when creating partitions using
parted (as is currently the case in the luv-live-image recipe) a default
value is used, which happens to be 83 (Linux).

Brian reports that this is causing the luv-results partition to not be
mounted and displayed correctly on his Windows 7 machine, and that some
of the Windows disk management tools are getting kinda confused.

Specify "fat32" when creating partitions, so that the partition label
matches reality.
