This commit fixes two issues with the timeout lib and the base-hw src recipe:
* Add source files of timeout lib to recipe content.
The files weren't copied to the depot until now. However, the archive
nonetheless built successfully because of the second issue that is described
below.
* Get rid of the usage of the BASE_DIR variable in the timeout lib.
The BASE_DIR variable always resolves to the repos/base directory even when
building in a depot. That said, the use of BASE_DIR in make-files that are
not part of the build system itself must be avoided. Instead, REP_DIR,
REP_INC_DIR, and $(call select_from_repositories, ...) should be used.
Ref #4209
This patch refines the rules for generating a base-hw src archive
for a given board by enumerating the content of the lib/mk/spec/*
directories instead of including entire directories. This avoids
the inclusion of lib.mk files found in SoC-specific repositories
(like genode-allwinner) in the kernel source archives.
When building a binary archive from such a src archive with the changes
of issue #4599, the build system would otherwise try (and fail) to build
the libraries for the accidentally included lib.mk files.
Instead of having a generic "virt_qemu" board use "virt_qemu_<arch>" in
order to have a clean distinction between boards. Current supported
boards are "virt_qemu_arm_v7a", "virt_qemu_arm_v8a", and
"virt_qemu_riscv".
issue #4034
With this patch, the board/<name>/arch property file can have multiple
lines where each line denotes an instruction-set architecture supported
for the board.
Issue #4019Fixes#4034
This patch simplifies the packaging of the base-hw kernel for a given
board, in particular when the board support is hosted as an external
repository such as genode-world. Regardless of where the board-support
is hosted, the content.mk file becomes as simple as:
include $(GENODE_DIR)/repos/base-hw/recipes/src/base-hw_content.inc
The board name is automatically inferred from the path of the src
recipe. The architecture is determined from board/<name>/arch files,
following the pattern of the image_link_address. The attempt to build a
base-hw-<board> binary archive for the wrong architecture is now
gracefully handled by skipping all targets (using the REQUIRES
mechanism).
Besides the improved convenience, the patch results in depot archives
that are much closer tailored to the actual board by omitting files for
architectures that are not used by the board. E.g., the src/base-hw-pc
archive does not contain any ARM-related content.
The patch also restores the package builds for core/bootstrap object
files as a follow-up fix of "base: remove SPEC variables of boards",
which happened to left 'BOARD' undefined in the src archives.
Fixes#4019
* Remove SPEC declarations from mk/spec
* Remove all board-specific REQUIRE declaratiions left
* Replace [have_spec <board>] run-script declarations with have_board where necessary
* Remove addition of BOARD variable to SPECS in toplevel Makefile
* Move board-specific directories in base-hw out of specs
