Krishnanjanappa, Jagadeesh 5bed033beb qt4-embedded: add checking for AArch64 ilp32
1. Cross-compiling qt4-embedded and qt4-x11-free applications for AArch64 ilp32
   (both big and little endian) fails with below error,

    the error is because of JSVALUE64 is being defined while compiling
    programs for AArch64 ilp32. This makes equal condition checking of
    intptr_t and double datatypes as false, and results in -1 (negative)
    as array size in bitwise_cast function.
    The patch defines JSVALUE64, if the programs are being compiled for
    AArch64 64bit NOT for ilp32.

2. qt4_arch.inc is modified to set system architecture as aarch64 if the
   TARGET_ARCH is other than aarch64. Without this modification, for
   TARGET_ARCH equal to aarch64_32, aarch64be, aarch64be_32; the system
   architecture is set as 'generic' and results in below error.

   AArch64 and its other variants

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-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.
