Richard Purdie 6b52061123 bitbake: runqueue/knotty: Improve UI handling of setscene task counting
The recent fixes to merge setscene and normal task accounting in runqueue
fixed some display issues but broke the task numbering of setscene tasks.

Add new accounting methods to the stats structure specifically designed
for setscene. This accounts for the fact that setscene tasks can rerun
multiple times in the build.

Then use the new data in the UI to correctly display the numbers the
user wants to see to understand progress.

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

Testing:

Bitbake has a testsuite located in lib/bb/tests/ whichs aim to try and prevent regressions. You can run this with "bitbake-selftest". In particular the fetcher is well covered since it has so many corner cases. The datastore has many tests too. Testing with the testsuite is recommended before submitting patches, particularly to the fetcher and datastore. We also appreciate new test cases and may require them for more obscure issues.
