These are commits for yocto tree. I came up with as part of the x32 work.
I think these commits does not belong in the x32 layer and should go
in the yocto/oecore tree.

The siteinfo.bbclass commit is a hacky way to get the the right siteinfo for
x32 now. In the future a better solution will be implemented for that purpose.

The following changes since commit 7354fc9213f27aa1b643dbe88070437f1ee4c063:

   insane.bbclass: skip rdepends QA checks for kernel / modules (2011-07-12 
15:22:09 +0100)

are available in the git repository at:
   git://git.pokylinux.org/poky-contrib nitin/x32
   http://git.pokylinux.org/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/log/?h=nitin/x32

Nitin A Kamble (5):
   siteinfo.bbclass: hack for x32
   udev-172: add a newer version for newer kernel
   runqemu: support qemux32 machine

These first three need a little more thought. They're fine to as proof
of concept work but we need to find better ways to integrate them.

Specifically:

The siteinfo change is a hack and can't be merged as is. We need to find
a way to change the target_arch or target_os in such a way we can signal
to siteinfo to do something different. I also wonder if using i686-linux
is actually correct for x32 in all cases since x32 does support 64 bit
data types.

I think it should have its own bits in separate file.


The udev update needs various other work as people have commented. We
need to resolve the udev differences between meta-oe and oe-core.

runqemu looks like it can be simplified as it looks like just the kernel
name is different? Is x32 using a different machine config at present?
Can we use the qemux86-64 machine directly and just add some tweaks to
it? That would avoid the need to change the qemu scripting?

Cheers,

Richard
