Stefan Herbrechtsmeier bae86fe618 bitbake: fetch2: Partial revert decodeurl() to not use the URI class
This partial reverts commit a5d569c94700f04b8193c6bccae5af619931b00f
which changes decodeurl() to use the URI class to parse the URL instead
of doing it itself. While reusing code is generally a good idea, using
urllib.parse.urlparse() (which the URI class does) to parse the regular
expression "URLs" that are used in PREMIRRORS and MIRRORS does not work.
A regular expression URL containing https?://... would be silently
ignored, while a URL using a negative lookahead such as
git://(?!internal\.git\.server).*/.* would result in a cryptic error:

  Exception: re.error: missing ), unterminated subpattern at position 0

The problem is that urllib.parse.urlparse() treats the ? as the start of
URL parameters and thus stops parsing whatever part of the URL it was
parsing. Restore the old function and use it in the PREMIRRORS and
MIRRORS code.

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: https://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

Bitbake requires Python version 3.8 or newer.

Contributing

Please refer to our contributor guide here: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/contributor-guide/ for full details on how to submit changes.

As a quick guide, patches should be sent to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org The git command to do that would be:

git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org

If you're sending a patch related to the BitBake manual, make sure you copy the Yocto Project documentation mailing list:

git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org --cc docs@lists.yoctoproject.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.

To run the tests "zstd" and "git" must be installed.

The assumption is made that this testsuite is run from an initialized OpenEmbedded build environment (i.e. source oe-init-build-env is used). If this is not the case, run the testsuite as follows:

export PATH=$(pwd)/bin:$PATH
bin/bitbake-selftest

The testsuite can alternatively be executed using pytest, e.g. obtained from PyPI (in this case, the PATH is configured automatically):

pytest
