* With 2.6.33-rc2-00252-ge9e5521 on my host I noticed that "cat /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr" returns now "cat: /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr: Operation not permitted" Its probably becuse of http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=0e1a6ef2dea88101b056b6d9984f3325c5efced3 But I'm not sure if checking CAP_SYS_RAWIO even for reading this value is intentional or just bug which should be fixed in kernel.
* This patch prints notice about need to check that value yourself (as root) instead of failing with "ERROR: IO Error: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted" * Its not optimal, because this notice is shown every time you run bitbake (even after checking/setting 0 to mmap_min_addr if you have kernel not allowing to read it Signed-off-by: Martin Jansa <[email protected]> --- classes/sanity.bbclass | 13 +++++++++---- 1 files changed, 9 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/classes/sanity.bbclass b/classes/sanity.bbclass index f65df61..4f90975 100644 --- a/classes/sanity.bbclass +++ b/classes/sanity.bbclass @@ -97,10 +97,15 @@ def check_sanity(e): messages = messages + "qemu-native was in ASSUME_PROVIDED but the QEMU binaries (qemu-arm) can't be found in PATH" if os.path.exists("/proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr"): - f = file("/proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr", "r") - if (f.read().strip() != "0"): - messages = messages + "/proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr is not 0.
