Some distros may want to provide alternate kernel "flavors" via feeds or
within bootable images. For example, readily available builds which
provide certain diagnostic features can enable developers and testers to
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.

[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

[PATCH v6] Add KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME to kernel-module-split.bbclass for
module recipes; fixes lttng-modules build.

[PATCH v7] Remove second definition of KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME from
kernel-module-split.bbclass; apply a default in two places where
KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME is referenced.

[PATCH v8] Rebase onto current master and more fixups.
  - kernel-devicetree.bbclass: Fixup package names
  - depmodwrapper-cross: don't error when called from alt kernel recipes
  - kernel.bbclass: Don't install /boot/image symlink in alt recipes

Minor 'nit, is this just a cleanup and not part of the technical bits
of the patch ?
When making changes to a complex recipe .. it really is a better idea to do this
in a separate patch.

If I've missed how this is related to the new KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME, then
disregard that comment. i.e. you really can't mix the new variable and
the d.getVar
call in the do_split_packages. Either way, no issue .. that use of a
variable just
jumped out to me as unrelated to the actual package name varying.


Kernel images and their modules are tightly coupled. To the best of my knowledge, there's no guarantee two different versions (or even two different configurations of the same version) of /boot/*Image can successfully load the other's modules. It's therefore necessary to package an alternate kernel's modules separately so that it can be installed along side alternate kernel images. Otherwise, those alternate images are not very useful unless they're configured without module support. I argue that module support is common enough to include these changes in the same patch, but I suppose that reasoning is somewhat subjective and debatable!

Why is the kernel abi check being dropped ? Or is is somehow relocated and the
diff is just hiding it from me ?

I see you referencing the depmod wrapper change in the v8 summary, but it
isn't clear to me that removing the check completely is a good idea.

The changes look good to me in general, just my comment and question
above.

The abi check moved down a few lines...

...to here.

Depmodwrapper conditionally passes a `-F .../System.map` parameter to depmod when installing the main kernel, dropping it otherwise (now with a warning instead of an error). This shouldn't alter depmod's behavior since -F is only significant when paired with -e, which not presently being used. It's necessary since an erroring depmodwrapper prevents installing alternate kernels into offline images.
