Hmm, doesn't this overwrite SRC_URI from systemd.inc?
SRC_URI += "file://...patch" would amend the patch file.
Good catch!

I wonder why this tag support is needed since MESON_TARGET already
compiles only the correct executable with static linking. Is it there
just to let meson handle the install step of a single systemctl
executable?
Or does it install more files, like config files too?
Correct. It installs much more when no tags specified :)
I'm comparing this to a draft systemd-boot-native recipe for ukify
which I had and which sets the build target but installs manually:
MESON_TARGET = "ukify"
EXTRA_OEMESON += "-Dnobody-user=nobody \
-Dnobody-group=nogroup \
-Drootlibdir=${rootlibdir} \
-Drootprefix=${rootprefix} \
-Ddefault-locale=C \
-Dmode=release \
-Dsystem-alloc-uid-min=101 \
-Dsystem-uid-max=999 \
-Dsystem-alloc-gid-min=101 \
-Dsystem-gid-max=999 \
"
do_install() {
install -d ${D}${bindir}/
install -m 0755 ${S}/src/ukify/ukify.py ${D}${bindir}/ukify
}
So the custom do_install() step could be avoided if systemd meson config
would have "install_tag" for ukify too?
Correct. There's more discussion here
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/36243 , but if we need more
tags, they can be added.
Current systemd-boot-native recipe installs/copies the unmodified ukify.py
from source tree and uses that in native. It doesn't run meson build for it
and thus things like version details are incorrect. Also some additional tools
like systemd-measure, systemd-sbsign etc are not compiled so some usecases may
not be supported atm. If those would also include the install tags, then they
could be compiled and installed too, I presume.
Yes, that would be an option as well
