patman: Rename functions in patchstream

2020-11-05T16:11:31Z

Rename these functions to lower case as per PEP8. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

buildman: Allow using older versions of genboardscfg.py

2020-07-29T01:30:39Z

Older versions of this script don't support the -q flag. Since buildman runs this script from when it starts, we may get the old version. Fix this in two ways: 1. Use the version from the same tree as buildman is run from, if available 2. Failing that, allow the -q flag to be missing Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

patman: Move to absolute imports

2020-04-26T20:25:21Z

At present patman sets the python path on startup so that it can access the libraries it needs. If we convert to use absolute imports this is not necessary. Move patman to use absolute imports. This requires changes in tools which use the patman libraries (which is most of them). Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

buildman: Move to absolute imports

2020-04-26T20:25:21Z

At present buildman sets the python path on startup so that it can access the libraries it needs. If we convert to use absolute imports this is not necessary. Move buildman to use absolute imports. Also adjust moveconfig.py too since it uses some buildman modules and cannot work without this. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

buildman: Make sure that -o is given with -w

2020-04-26T20:24:08Z

It is a bad idea to use the default output directory ('..') with -w since it does a build in that directory and writes various files these. Require that -o is given to avoid this problem. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

buildman: Correct operation of -A flag

2020-04-26T20:24:08Z

This was broken when -a was removed and unfortunately there are no tests for this. Fix it. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

buildman: Change the exit codes

2020-04-21T12:33:47Z

The current exit codes of 128 and 129 are useful in that they do not conflict with those returned by tools, but they are not actually valid. It seems better to pick some codes which work with 'bit bisect run'. Update them to 100 (for errors) and 101 (for warnings). Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

buildman: Add an option to ignore migration warnings

2020-04-21T12:33:47Z

These are becoming more common now. They cause boards to show warnings which can be mistaking for compiler warnings. Add a buildman option to ignore them. This option works only with the summary option (-s). It does not affect the build process. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

buildman: Add an option to ignore device-tree warnings

2020-04-21T12:33:47Z

Unfortunately the plague of device-tree warnings has not lifted. These warnings infiltrate almost every build, adding noise and confusion. Add a buildman option to ignore them. This option works only with the summary option (-s). It does not affect the build process. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

buildman: Make -I the default

2020-04-21T12:33:47Z

At present buildman defaults to running 'mrproper' on every thread before it starts building commits for each board. This can add a delay of about 5 seconds to the start of the process, since the tools and other invariants must be rebuilt. In particular, a build without '-b', to build current source, runs much slower without -I, since any existing build is removed, thus losing the possibility of an incremental build. Partly this behaviour was to avoid strange build-system problems caused by running 'make defconfig' for one board and then one with a different architecture. But these problems were fixed quite a while ago. The -I option (which disabled mrproper) was introduced four years ago and does not seem to cause any problems with builds. So make -I the default and deprecate the option. To allow use of 'mrproper', add a new -m flag. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass
