python: Use and refer to the venv module rather than virtualenv

2025-04-24T21:37:27Z

Using some form of sandbox with Python modules is a long standing best practice with the language. There are a number of ways to have a Python sandbox be created. At this point in time, it seems the Python community is moving towards using the "venv" module provided with Python rather than a separate tool. To match that we make the following changes: - Refer to a "Python sandbox" rather than virtualenv in comments, etc. - Install the python3-venv module in our container and not virtualenv. - In our CI files, invoke "python -m venv" rather than "virtualenv". - In documentation, tell users to install python3-venv and not virtualenv.

Makefile: Allow LTO to be disabled for a build

2022-09-02T20:20:11Z

LTO (Link-Time Optimisation) is an very useful feature which can significantly reduce the size of U-Boot binaries. So far it has been made available for selected ARM boards and sandbox. However, incremental builds are much slower when LTO is used. For example, an incremental build of sandbox takes 2.1 seconds on my machine, but 6.7 seconds with LTO enabled. Add a NO_LTO parameter to the build, similar to NO_SDL, so it can be disabled during development if needed, for faster builds. Add some documentation about LTO while we are here.
