Some distros may want to provide alternate kernel "flavors" via feeds

more quickly resolve issues by avoiding lengthy kernel builds.

This change allows for building multiple flavors of the kernel and
module packages by templatizing kernel package names via a new
KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME variable in kernel.bbclass. It defaults to the
old
name of "kernel", but can be overridden by certain recipes providing
alternate kernel flavors.

To maintain compatibility, recipes providing alternate kernel flavors
cannot be the "preferred provider" for virtual/kernel. This is
because
OE puts the preferred provider's build and source at
"tmp-glibc/work-shared/$MACHINE/kernel-build-artifacts/" and
"tmp-glibc/work-shared/$MACHINE/kernel-source/" instead of
"tmp-glibc/work/*/$PN/" like other recipes. Therefore, recipes using
the
default KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME="kernel" follows the old semantics --
build
in the old location and may be preferred provider -- while recipes
using
all other KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME's build from the normal WORKDIR and
don't
provide "virtual/kernel".

Testing:
  1. Prepended `KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME = "tiny-linux"` to
     linux-yocto-tiny_4.9.bb so that it may build alongside
     the main kernel.
  2. `bitbake linux-yocto linux-yocto-tiny` to build both kernel
flavors.
  3. Verified image and modules IPKs exist for both:
     tmp-glibc/deploy/ipk/qemux86/kernel-* for linux-yocto
     tmp-glibc/deploy/ipk/qemux86/tiny-linux* for linux-yocto-tiny
  4. Verified linux-yocto is the "preferred provider", and was built
in
     shared directory: tmp-glibc/work-shared/qemux86/kernel-*
  5. Appended `CORE_IMAGE_BASE_INSTALL += "tiny-linux"` to
     core-image-base.bb to include both kernel flavors.
  6. `bitbake core-image-base` to build an image.
  7. Verified image contains two bzImage's under /boot/, with
     "yocto-standard" selected to boot via symlink.

Thank you for continuing to work on this.  I did a simple test of
building a single kernel and lttng-modules without your change and then
added this patch and tried lttng-modules with no additional changes to
my local.conf, just regular single kernel workflow.

I got the following issue:

ERROR: lttng-modules-2.9.3-r0 do_package: Error executing a python
function in exec_python_func() autogenerated:

The stack trace of python calls that resulted in this exception/failure

NOTE: recipe lttng-modules-2.9.3-r0: task do_package: Failed

I believe the problem is that I tried to build lttng-modules standalone
and so the kernel.bbclass does not get involved to set the
KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME default.


Correct. I mistakenly though everything relating to kernel builds sources kernel.bbclass.

I added a default KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME to kernel-module-split.bbclass, for the module-only case. However, I'm not sure if there's a better place for it. Thoughts? (PATCH v6 incoming)

I see that your procedure above works for.

Thanks again for your work, sorry I am finding interesting issues
still.


Np. I'm glad we're resolving all these issues up front instead of dealing with a pile of bug reports!

Sau!

[PATCH v2] Change STAGING_KERNEL_DIR and STAGING_KERNEL_BUILDDIR to
the
"work" directory in alternate kernel builds, instead of "work-
shared",
so
that the two builds don't clobber each other.

[PATCH v3] An updated version of this change rebased onto the current
OE-core master. Changes:
  - Remove PREFERRED_PROVIDER check in linux-yocto.inc in alternate
    kernel builds, since alternate kernels aren't the
    PREFERRED_PROVIDER for virtual/kernel by definition.
  - Remove "virtual/kernel" from PROVIDES in alternate kernel builds.

[PATCH v4] Another rebase onto master; no functional change.
Improved description and testing steps.

[PATCH v5]
  - Warn when PN == KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME (bug # 11905)
  - Add KERNEL_DEPLOYSUBDIR to avoid DEPLOYDIR collisions
