Since the upgrade to 2.8, lttng-tools' test harness silently succeeds
but doesn't actually run the tests. This is because upstream made
some changes in their test harness:
83666813ca
Updates to address this include:
- drop now-irrelevant patch
- change the ptest-run make target
- remove indiscriminate search/replace commands from do_install_ptest
- copy entire build directory into PTEST_PATH and then remove unneeded files
- use lttng binaries installed on the system for the tests
- add lttng-tools-ptest runtime dependencies
- lttng-tools itself
- babeltrace, used by the test harness to process traces
- perl modules required by babelstats.pl test script
- procps (for pgrep, pidof)
- gawk
- remove unnecessary chmod and munging of utils.sh script library
- remove checkpatch from ptest installation tree
- avoid path-munging of libtool artifacts altogether
- use more efficient find+sed patterns to munge Makefiles
- reduce test harness output to conform to ptest rules
On qemux86-64 and qemuarm I get relatively stable results, with
PASS/FAIL varying by +-1 on successive runs.
TOTAL: 2345
PASS: 1735
SKIP: 311
XFAIL: 0
FAIL: 292
XPASS: 0
ERROR: 7
There are some ERRORs worth looking into further but this should be a
useful basis for future work.

Poky
Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged build system and development environment. It features support for building customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.
Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.
As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.
The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a reference manual which can be found at: http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with DISTRO = "nodistro") and contains only emulated machine support.
For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website: http://www.openembedded.org/
Where to Send Patches
As Poky is an integration repository (built using a tool called combo-layer), patches against the various components should be sent to their respective upstreams:
bitbake: Git repository: http://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/ Mailing list: bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
documentation: Git repository: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/yocto-docs/ Mailing list: yocto@yoctoproject.org
meta-poky, meta-yocto-bsp: Git repository: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-yocto(-bsp) Mailing list: poky@yoctoproject.org
Everything else should be sent to the OpenEmbedded Core mailing list. If in doubt, check the oe-core git repository for the content you intend to modify. Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current oe-core git repository.
Git repository: http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/
Mailing list: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org
Note: The scripts directory should be treated with extra care as it is a mix of oe-core and poky-specific files.
