The hash equivalence server has had the option to support a read-only upstream server for some time now when launched as a standalone program, but there was no way to set the upstream when using a locally started server. Add a new variable called BB_HASHSERVE_UPSTREAM that can be used to specify an upstream server when a local hash equivalence server is used (e.g. BB_HASHSERVE is "auto") (Bitbake rev: c225638a1bef06aa7b3c07e37102d550afc0107e) Signed-off-by: Joshua Watt <JPEWhacker@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org> (cherry picked from commit 250fa17f1391ff1ee01ab9b51d2a4f9aa35c1d1e) Signed-off-by: Anuj Mittal <anuj.mittal@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
Bitbake
BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints. One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software stacks using a task-oriented approach.
For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website: http://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated html version at the Yocto Project website: https://docs.yoctoproject.org
Contributing
Please refer to http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org) but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current branch, type:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
