Max,
we has a failure on the Autobuilder when attempting to build the world build.
This has some texinfo related failures, please check them out. https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/main/builders/nightly-world/builds/95/steps/BuildImages/logs/stdio Thanks Sau! On 05/14/2014 02:35 PM, Max Eliaser wrote:
Hello list, As per discussion with Richard Purdie and others, I'm submitting a patch to suppress some unnecessary invocations of utilities from the Texinfo suite during Yocto builds. Specifically, it targets -native and -cross recipes that inherit texinfo.bbclass. The Texinfo utilities are suppressed by supplying doppelgänger executables which understand the same command-line options as the genuine Texinfo utilites, and which can create blank output files where expected, but which do no actual processing, formatting, or markup. To see how this is done, look in the texinfo-dummy-native recipe (under meta/recipes-extended,) added in this patch series, as well as the modifications to texinfo.bbclass, also in this patch series. Suppressing the Texinfo utilities for -native and -cross recipes does provide a noticable performance gain, as documented in bug 2421. [1] You could make the case that this patch series still does not completely address bug 2421, as there are other utilities not from the Texinfo suite (groff, pod2man, etc) which are not suppressed by these changes. Target-architecture recipes continue to use the host system's Texinfo utilities as before, so that dependency is not eliminated by this patch series.
