Joshua Watt a83ea01b99 bitbake: bitbake: asyncrpc: Catch early SIGTERM
If the SIGTERM signal is sent to an asyncrpc server before it has
installed the SIGTERM handler in the main loop, it may miss the signal
which will can cause the calling process to wait forever on the join().
To resolve this, the calling process should mask of SIGTERM before
forking the server process and the server should unmask the signal only
after the handler is installed. To simplify the usage of the server, an
new helper function called serve_as_process() is added to do this
automatically and correctly.

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
