Mark Hatle 4cb33dae15 bitbake: process.py: Handle SystemExit exception to eliminate backtrace
With an invalid layer, the desired error output should be:

  ERROR: The following layer directories do not exist:
  ERROR:    /this_path_does_not_exist
  ERROR: Please check BBLAYERS in .../build-invalid-layer/conf/bblayers.conf

Instead we were met with a backtrace:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/scratch1/fray/xilinx/poky/bitbake/bin/bitbake", line 36, in <module>
    cookerdata.CookerConfiguration()))
...
  File "/scratch1/fray/xilinx/poky/bitbake/lib/bb/cookerdata.py", line 267, in parseBaseConfiguration
    self.data = self.parseConfigurationFiles(self.prefiles, self.postfiles)
  File "/scratch1/fray/xilinx/poky/bitbake/lib/bb/cookerdata.py", line 358, in parseConfigurationFiles
    sys.exit(1)
SystemExit: 1

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: http://yoctoproject.org/documentation

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
