Consequently, the separate ``python-argparse`` + recipe is no longer needed. + +- ``telepathy-python, libtelepathy, telepathy-glib, telepathy-idle, telepathy-mission-control``: + All these recipes have moved to ``meta-oe`` and are consequently no + longer needed by any recipes in OpenEmbedded-Core. + +- ``linux-yocto_3.10`` and ``linux-yocto_3.17``: Support for the + linux-yocto 3.10 and 3.17 kernels has been dropped. Support for the + 3.14 kernel remains, while support for 3.19 kernel has been added. + +- ``poky-feed-config-opkg``: This recipe has become obsolete and is no + longer needed. Use ``distro-feed-config`` from ``meta-oe`` instead. + +- ``libav 0.8.x``: ``libav 9.x`` is now used. + +- ``sed-native``: No longer needed. A working version of ``sed`` is + expected to be provided by the host distribution. + +.. _migration-1.8-bluez: + +BlueZ 4.x / 5.x Selection +------------------------- + +Proper built-in support for selecting BlueZ 5.x in preference to the +default of 4.x now exists. To use BlueZ 5.x, simply add "bluez5" to your +:term:`DISTRO_FEATURES` value. If you had +previously added append files (``*.bbappend``) to make this selection, +you can now remove them. + +Additionally, a ``bluetooth`` class has been added to make selection of +the appropriate bluetooth support within a recipe a little easier. If +you wish to make use of this class in a recipe, add something such as +the following:: + + inherit bluetooth + PACKAGECONFIG ??= "${@bb.utils.contains('DISTRO_FEATURES', 'bluetooth', '${BLUEZ}', '', d)}" + PACKAGECONFIG[bluez4] = "--enable-bluetooth,--disable-bluetooth,bluez4" + PACKAGECONFIG[bluez5] = "--enable-bluez5,--disable-bluez5,bluez5" + +.. _migration-1.8-kernel-build-changes: + +Kernel Build Changes +-------------------- + +The kernel build process was changed to place the source in a common +shared work area and to place build artifacts separately in the source +code tree. In theory, migration paths have been provided for most common +usages in kernel recipes but this might not work in all cases. In +particular, users need to ensure that ``${S}`` (source files) and +``${B}`` (build artifacts) are used correctly in functions such as +:ref:`ref-tasks-configure` and +:ref:`ref-tasks-install`. For kernel recipes that do not +inherit from ``kernel-yocto`` or include ``linux-yocto.inc``, you might +wish to refer to the ``linux.inc`` file in the ``meta-oe`` layer for the +kinds of changes you need to make. For reference, here is the +:oe_git:`commit </meta-openembedded/commit/meta-oe/recipes-kernel/linux/linux.inc?id=fc7132ede27ac67669448d3d2845ce7d46c6a1ee>` +where the ``linux.inc`` file in ``meta-oe`` was updated. + +Recipes that rely on the kernel source code and do not inherit the +module classes might need to add explicit dependencies on the +``do_shared_workdir`` kernel task, for example:: + + do_configure[depends] += "virtual/kernel:do_shared_workdir" + +.. _migration-1.8-ssl: + +SSL 3.0 is Now Disabled in OpenSSL +---------------------------------- + +SSL 3.0 is now disabled when building OpenSSL. Disabling SSL 3.0 avoids +any lingering instances of the POODLE vulnerability. If you feel you +must re-enable SSL 3.0, then you can add an append file (``*.bbappend``) +for the ``openssl`` recipe to remove "-no-ssl3" from +:term:`EXTRA_OECONF`. + +.. _migration-1.8-default-sysroot-poisoning: + +Default Sysroot Poisoning +------------------------- + +``gcc's`` default sysroot and include directories are now "poisoned". In +other words, the sysroot and include directories are being redirected to +a non-existent location in order to catch when host directories are +being used due to the correct options not being passed. This poisoning +applies both to the cross-compiler used within the build and to the +cross-compiler produced in the SDK. + +If this change causes something in the build to fail, it almost +certainly means the various compiler flags and commands are not being +passed correctly to the underlying piece of software. In such cases, you +need to take corrective steps. + +.. _migration-1.8-rebuild-improvements: + +Rebuild Improvements +-------------------- + +Changes have been made to the :ref:`base <ref-classes-base>`, +:ref:`autotools <ref-classes-autotools>`, and +:ref:`cmake <ref-classes-cmake>` classes to clean out generated files +when the :ref:`ref-tasks-configure` task needs to be +re-executed. + +One of the improvements is to attempt to run "make clean" during the +``do_configure`` task if a ``Makefile`` exists. Some software packages +do not provide a working clean target within their make files. If you +have such recipes, you need to set +:term:`CLEANBROKEN` to "1" within the recipe, for example:: + + CLEANBROKEN = "1" + +.. _migration-1.8-qa-check-and-validation-changes: + +QA Check and Validation Changes +------------------------------- + +The following QA Check and Validation Changes have occurred: + +- Usage of ``PRINC`` previously triggered a warning. It now triggers an + error. You should remove any remaining usage of ``PRINC`` in any + recipe or append file. + +- An additional QA check has been added to detect usage of ``${D}`` in + :term:`FILES` values where :term:`D` values + should not be used at all. The same check ensures that ``$D`` is used + in ``pkg_preinst/pkg_postinst/pkg_prerm/pkg_postrm`` functions + instead of ``${D}``. + +- :term:`S` now needs to be set to a valid value within a + recipe. If :term:`S` is not set in the recipe, the directory is not + automatically created. If :term:`S` does not point to a directory that + exists at the time the :ref:`ref-tasks-unpack` task + finishes, a warning will be shown. + +- :term:`LICENSE` is now validated for correct + formatting of multiple licenses. If the format is invalid (e.g. + multiple licenses are specified with no operators to specify how the + multiple licenses interact), then a warning will be shown. + +.. _migration-1.8-miscellaneous-changes: + +Miscellaneous Changes +--------------------- + +The following miscellaneous changes have occurred: + +- The ``send-error-report`` script now expects a "-s" option to be + specified before the server address. This assumes a server address is + being specified. + +- The ``oe-pkgdata-util`` script now expects a "-p" option to be + specified before the ``pkgdata`` directory, which is now optional. If + the ``pkgdata`` directory is not specified, the script will run + BitBake to query :term:`PKGDATA_DIR` from the + build environment. + + |
