+ $ pip3 install sphinx sphinx_rtd_theme pyyaml
+
+To build the documentation locally, run:

+Execution
+=========
+
+|
+
+The primary purpose for running BitBake is to produce some kind of
+output such as a single installable package, a kernel, a software
+development kit, or even a full, board-specific bootable Linux image,
+complete with bootloader, kernel, and root filesystem. Of course, you
+can execute the ``bitbake`` command with options that cause it to
+execute single tasks, compile single recipe files, capture or clear
+data, or simply return information about the execution environment.
+
+This chapter describes BitBake's execution process from start to finish
+when you use it to create an image. The execution process is launched
+using the following command form::
+
+ $ bitbake target
+
+For information on
+the BitBake command and its options, see ":ref:`The BitBake Command
+<bitbake-user-manual-command>`" section.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Prior to executing BitBake, you should take advantage of available
+ parallel thread execution on your build host by setting the
+ :term:`BB_NUMBER_THREADS` variable in
+ your project's ``local.conf`` configuration file.
+
+ A common method to determine this value for your build host is to run
+ the following::
+
+ $ grep processor /proc/cpuinfo
+
+ This command returns
+ the number of processors, which takes into account hyper-threading.
+ Thus, a quad-core build host with hyper-threading most likely shows
+ eight processors, which is the value you would then assign to
+ :term:`BB_NUMBER_THREADS`.
+
+ A possibly simpler solution is that some Linux distributions (e.g.
+ Debian and Ubuntu) provide the ``ncpus`` command.
+
+Parsing the Base Configuration Metadata
+=======================================
+
+The first thing BitBake does is parse base configuration metadata. Base
+configuration metadata consists of your project's ``bblayers.conf`` file
+to determine what layers BitBake needs to recognize, all necessary
+``layer.conf`` files (one from each layer), and ``bitbake.conf``. The
+data itself is of various types:
+
+- **Recipes:** Details about particular pieces of software.
+
+- **Class Data:** An abstraction of common build information (e.g. how to
+ build a Linux kernel).
+
+- **Configuration Data:** Machine-specific settings, policy decisions,
+ and so forth. Configuration data acts as the glue to bind everything
+ together.
+
+The ``layer.conf`` files are used to construct key variables such as
+:term:`BBPATH` and :term:`BBFILES`.
+:term:`BBPATH` is used to search for configuration and class files under the
+``conf`` and ``classes`` directories, respectively. :term:`BBFILES` is used
+to locate both recipe and recipe append files (``.bb`` and
+``.bbappend``). If there is no ``bblayers.conf`` file, it is assumed the
+user has set the :term:`BBPATH` and :term:`BBFILES` directly in the environment.
+
+Next, the ``bitbake.conf`` file is located using the :term:`BBPATH` variable
+that was just constructed. The ``bitbake.conf`` file may also include
+other configuration files using the ``include`` or ``require``
+directives.
+
+Prior to parsing configuration files, BitBake looks at certain
+variables, including:
+
+- :term:`BB_ENV_PASSTHROUGH`
+- :term:`BB_ENV_PASSTHROUGH_ADDITIONS`
+- :term:`BB_PRESERVE_ENV`
+- :term:`BB_ORIGENV`
+- :term:`BITBAKE_UI`
+
+The first four variables in this list relate to how BitBake treats shell
+environment variables during task execution. By default, BitBake cleans
+the environment variables and provides tight control over the shell
+execution environment. However, through the use of these first four
+variables, you can apply your control regarding the environment
+variables allowed to be used by BitBake in the shell during execution of
+tasks. See the
+":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:Passing Information Into the Build Task Environment`"
+section and the information about these variables in the variable
+glossary for more information on how they work and on how to use them.
+
+The base configuration metadata is global and therefore affects all
+recipes and tasks that are executed.
+
+BitBake first searches the current working directory for an optional
+``conf/bblayers.conf`` configuration file. This file is expected to
+contain a :term:`BBLAYERS` variable that is a
+space-delimited list of 'layer' directories. Recall that if BitBake
+cannot find a ``bblayers.conf`` file, then it is assumed the user has
+set the :term:`BBPATH` and :term:`BBFILES` variables directly in the
+environment.
+
+For each directory (layer) in this list, a ``conf/layer.conf`` file is
+located and parsed with the :term:`LAYERDIR` variable
+being set to the directory where the layer was found. The idea is these
+files automatically set up :term:`BBPATH` and other
+variables correctly for a given build directory.
+
+BitBake then expects to find the ``conf/bitbake.conf`` file somewhere in
+the user-specified :term:`BBPATH`. That configuration file generally has
+include directives to pull in any other metadata such as files specific
+to the architecture, the machine, the local environment, and so forth.
+
+Only variable definitions and include directives are allowed in BitBake
+``.conf`` files. Some variables directly influence BitBake's behavior.
+These variables might have been set from the environment depending on
+the environment variables previously mentioned or set in the
+configuration files. The ":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-ref-variables:Variables Glossary`"
+chapter presents a full list of
+variables.
+
+After parsing configuration files, BitBake uses its rudimentary
+inheritance mechanism, which is through class files, to inherit some
+standard classes. BitBake parses a class when the inherit directive
+responsible for getting that class is encountered.
+
+The ``base.bbclass`` file is always included. Other classes that are
+specified in the configuration using the
+:term:`INHERIT` variable are also included. BitBake
+searches for class files in a ``classes`` subdirectory under the paths
+in :term:`BBPATH` in the same way as configuration files.
+
+A good way to get an idea of the configuration files and the class files
+used in your execution environment is to run the following BitBake
+command::
+
+ $ bitbake -e > mybb.log
+
+Examining the top of the ``mybb.log``
+shows you the many configuration files and class files used in your
+execution environment.
+
+.. note::
+
+ You need to be aware of how BitBake parses curly braces. If a recipe
+ uses a closing curly brace within the function and the character has
+ no leading spaces, BitBake produces a parsing error. If you use a
+ pair of curly braces in a shell function, the closing curly brace
+ must not be located at the start of the line without leading spaces.
+
+ Here is an example that causes BitBake to produce a parsing error::
+
+ fakeroot create_shar() {
+ cat << "EOF" > ${SDK_DEPLOY}/${TOOLCHAIN_OUTPUTNAME}.sh
+ usage()
+ {
+ echo "test"
+ ###### The following "}" at the start of the line causes a parsing error ######
+ }
+ EOF
+ }
+
+ Writing the recipe this way avoids the error:
+ fakeroot create_shar() {
+ cat << "EOF" > ${SDK_DEPLOY}/${TOOLCHAIN_OUTPUTNAME}.sh
+ usage()
+ {
+ echo "test"
+ ###### The following "}" with a leading space at the start of the line avoids the error ######
+ }
+ EOF
+ }
+
+Locating and Parsing Recipes
+============================
+
+During the configuration phase, BitBake will have set
+:term:`BBFILES`. BitBake now uses it to construct a
+list of recipes to parse, along with any append files (``.bbappend``) to
+apply. :term:`BBFILES` is a space-separated list of available files and
+supports wildcards. An example would be::
+
+ BBFILES = "/path/to/bbfiles/*.bb /path/to/appends/*.bbappend"
+
+BitBake parses each
+recipe and append file located with :term:`BBFILES` and stores the values of
+various variables into the datastore.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Append files are applied in the order they are encountered in BBFILES.
+
+For each file, a fresh copy of the base configuration is made, then the
+recipe is parsed line by line. Any inherit statements cause BitBake to
+find and then parse class files (``.bbclass``) using
+:term:`BBPATH` as the search path. Finally, BitBake
+parses in order any append files found in :term:`BBFILES`.
+
+One common convention is to use the recipe filename to define pieces of
+metadata. For example, in ``bitbake.conf`` the recipe name and version
+are used to set the variables :term:`PN` and
+:term:`PV`::
+
+ PN = "${@bb.parse.vars_from_file(d.getVar('FILE', False),d)[0] or 'defaultpkgname'}"
+ PV = "${@bb.parse.vars_from_file(d.getVar('FILE', False),d)[1] or '1.0'}"
+
+In this example, a recipe called "something_1.2.3.bb" would set
+:term:`PN` to "something" and :term:`PV` to "1.2.3".
+
+By the time parsing is complete for a recipe, BitBake has a list of
+tasks that the recipe defines and a set of data consisting of keys and
+values as well as dependency information about the tasks.
+
+BitBake does not need all of this information. It only needs a small
+subset of the information to make decisions about the recipe.
+Consequently, BitBake caches the values in which it is interested and
+does not store the rest of the information. Experience has shown it is
+faster to re-parse the metadata than to try and write it out to the disk
+and then reload it.
+
+Where possible, subsequent BitBake commands reuse this cache of recipe
+information. The validity of this cache is determined by first computing
+a checksum of the base configuration data (see
+:term:`BB_HASHCONFIG_IGNORE_VARS`) and
+then checking if the checksum matches. If that checksum matches what is
+in the cache and the recipe and class files have not changed, BitBake is
+able to use the cache. BitBake then reloads the cached information about
+the recipe instead of reparsing it from scratch.
+
+Recipe file collections exist to allow the user to have multiple
+repositories of ``.bb`` files that contain the same exact package. For
+example, one could easily use them to make one's own local copy of an
+upstream repository, but with custom modifications that one does not
+want upstream. Here is an example::
+
+ BBFILES = "/stuff/openembedded/*/*.bb /stuff/openembedded.modified/*/*.bb"
+ BBFILE_COLLECTIONS = "upstream local"
+ BBFILE_PATTERN_upstream = "^/stuff/openembedded/"
+ BBFILE_PATTERN_local = "^/stuff/openembedded.modified/"
+ BBFILE_PRIORITY_upstream = "5"
+ BBFILE_PRIORITY_local = "10"
+
+.. note::
+
+ The layers mechanism is now the preferred method of collecting code.
+ While the collections code remains, its main use is to set layer
+ priorities and to deal with overlap (conflicts) between layers.
+
+.. _bb-bitbake-providers:
+
+Providers
+=========
+
+Assuming BitBake has been instructed to execute a target and that all
+the recipe files have been parsed, BitBake starts to figure out how to
+build the target. BitBake looks through the :term:`PROVIDES` list for each
+of the recipes. A :term:`PROVIDES` list is the list of names by which the
+recipe can be known. Each recipe's :term:`PROVIDES` list is created
+implicitly through the recipe's :term:`PN` variable and
+explicitly through the recipe's :term:`PROVIDES`
+variable, which is optional.
+
+When a recipe uses :term:`PROVIDES`, that recipe's functionality can be
+found under an alternative name or names other than the implicit :term:`PN`
+name. As an example, suppose a recipe named ``keyboard_1.0.bb``
+contained the following::
+
+ PROVIDES += "fullkeyboard"
+
+The :term:`PROVIDES`
+list for this recipe becomes "keyboard", which is implicit, and
+"fullkeyboard", which is explicit. Consequently, the functionality found
+in ``keyboard_1.0.bb`` can be found under two different names.
+
+.. _bb-bitbake-preferences:
+
+Preferences
+===========
+
+The :term:`PROVIDES` list is only part of the solution for figuring out a
+target's recipes. Because targets might have multiple providers, BitBake
+needs to prioritize providers by determining provider preferences.
+
+A common example in which a target has multiple providers is
+"virtual/kernel", which is on the :term:`PROVIDES` list for each kernel
+recipe. Each machine often selects the best kernel provider by using a
+line similar to the following in the machine configuration file::
+
+ PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "linux-yocto"
+
+The default :term:`PREFERRED_PROVIDER` is the provider
+with the same name as the target. BitBake iterates through each target
+it needs to build and resolves them and their dependencies using this
+process.
+
+Understanding how providers are chosen is made complicated by the fact
+that multiple versions might exist for a given provider. BitBake
+defaults to the highest version of a provider. Version comparisons are
+made using the same method as Debian. You can use the
+:term:`PREFERRED_VERSION` variable to
+specify a particular version. You can influence the order by using the
+:term:`DEFAULT_PREFERENCE` variable.
+
+By default, files have a preference of "0". Setting
+:term:`DEFAULT_PREFERENCE` to "-1" makes the recipe unlikely to be used
+unless it is explicitly referenced. Setting :term:`DEFAULT_PREFERENCE` to
+"1" makes it likely the recipe is used. :term:`PREFERRED_VERSION` overrides
+any :term:`DEFAULT_PREFERENCE` setting. :term:`DEFAULT_PREFERENCE` is often used
+to mark newer and more experimental recipe versions until they have
+undergone sufficient testing to be considered stable.
+
+When there are multiple "versions" of a given recipe, BitBake defaults
+to selecting the most recent version, unless otherwise specified. If the
+recipe in question has a
+:term:`DEFAULT_PREFERENCE` set lower than
+the other recipes (default is 0), then it will not be selected. This
+allows the person or persons maintaining the repository of recipe files
+to specify their preference for the default selected version.
+Additionally, the user can specify their preferred version.
+
+If the first recipe is named ``a_1.1.bb``, then the
+:term:`PN` variable will be set to "a", and the
+:term:`PV` variable will be set to 1.1.
+
+Thus, if a recipe named ``a_1.2.bb`` exists, BitBake will choose 1.2 by
+default. However, if you define the following variable in a ``.conf``
+file that BitBake parses, you can change that preference::
+
+ PREFERRED_VERSION_a = "1.1"
+
+.. note::
+
+ It is common for a recipe to provide two versions -- a stable,
+ numbered (and preferred) version, and a version that is automatically
+ checked out from a source code repository that is considered more
+ "bleeding edge" but can be selected only explicitly.
+
+ For example, in the OpenEmbedded codebase, there is a standard,
+ versioned recipe file for BusyBox, ``busybox_1.22.1.bb``, but there
+ is also a Git-based version, ``busybox_git.bb``, which explicitly
+ contains the line ::
+
+ DEFAULT_PREFERENCE = "-1"
+
+ to ensure that the
+ numbered, stable version is always preferred unless the developer
+ selects otherwise.
+
+.. _bb-bitbake-dependencies:
+
+Dependencies
+============
+
+Each target BitBake builds consists of multiple tasks such as ``fetch``,
+``unpack``, ``patch``, ``configure``, and ``compile``. For best
+performance on multi-core systems, BitBake considers each task as an
+independent entity with its own set of dependencies.
+
+Dependencies are defined through several variables. You can find
+information about variables BitBake uses in the
+:doc:`bitbake-user-manual-ref-variables` near the end of this manual. At a
+basic level, it is sufficient to know that BitBake uses the
+:term:`DEPENDS` and
+:term:`RDEPENDS` variables when calculating
+dependencies.
+
+For more information on how BitBake handles dependencies, see the
+:ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:Dependencies`
+section.
+
+.. _ref-bitbake-tasklist:
+
+The Task List
+=============
+
+Based on the generated list of providers and the dependency information,
+BitBake can now calculate exactly what tasks it needs to run and in what
+order it needs to run them. The
+:ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-execution:executing tasks`
+section has more information on how BitBake chooses which task to
+execute next.
+
+The build now starts with BitBake forking off threads up to the limit
+set in the :term:`BB_NUMBER_THREADS`
+variable. BitBake continues to fork threads as long as there are tasks
+ready to run, those tasks have all their dependencies met, and the
+thread threshold has not been exceeded.
+
+It is worth noting that you can greatly speed up the build time by
+properly setting the :term:`BB_NUMBER_THREADS` variable.
+
+As each task completes, a timestamp is written to the directory
+specified by the :term:`STAMP` variable. On subsequent
+runs, BitBake looks in the build directory within ``tmp/stamps`` and
+does not rerun tasks that are already completed unless a timestamp is
+found to be invalid. Currently, invalid timestamps are only considered
+on a per recipe file basis. So, for example, if the configure stamp has
+a timestamp greater than the compile timestamp for a given target, then
+the compile task would rerun. Running the compile task again, however,
+has no effect on other providers that depend on that target.
+
+The exact format of the stamps is partly configurable. In modern
+versions of BitBake, a hash is appended to the stamp so that if the
+configuration changes, the stamp becomes invalid and the task is
+automatically rerun. This hash, or signature used, is governed by the
+signature policy that is configured (see the
+:ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-execution:checksums (signatures)`
+section for information). It is also
+possible to append extra metadata to the stamp using the
+``[stamp-extra-info]`` task flag. For example, OpenEmbedded uses this
+flag to make some tasks machine-specific.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Some tasks are marked as "nostamp" tasks. No timestamp file is
+ created when these tasks are run. Consequently, "nostamp" tasks are
+ always rerun.
+
+For more information on tasks, see the
+:ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:tasks` section.
+
+Executing Tasks
+===============
+
+Tasks can be either a shell task or a Python task. For shell tasks,
+BitBake writes a shell script to
+``${``\ :term:`T`\ ``}/run.do_taskname.pid`` and then
+executes the script. The generated shell script contains all the
+exported variables, and the shell functions with all variables expanded.
+Output from the shell script goes to the file
+``${``\ :term:`T`\ ``}/log.do_taskname.pid``. Looking at the expanded shell functions in
+the run file and the output in the log files is a useful debugging
+technique.
+
+For Python tasks, BitBake executes the task internally and logs
+information to the controlling terminal. Future versions of BitBake will
+write the functions to files similar to the way shell tasks are handled.
+Logging will be handled in a way similar to shell tasks as well.
+
+The order in which BitBake runs the tasks is controlled by its task
+scheduler. It is possible to configure the scheduler and define custom
+implementations for specific use cases. For more information, see these
+variables that control the behavior:
+
+- :term:`BB_SCHEDULER`
+
+- :term:`BB_SCHEDULERS`
+
+It is possible to have functions run before and after a task's main
+function. This is done using the ``[prefuncs]`` and ``[postfuncs]``
+flags of the task that lists the functions to run.
+
+.. _checksums:
+
+Checksums (Signatures)
+======================
+
+A checksum is a unique signature of a task's inputs. The signature of a
+task can be used to determine if a task needs to be run. Because it is a
+change in a task's inputs that triggers running the task, BitBake needs
+to detect all the inputs to a given task. For shell tasks, this turns
+out to be fairly easy because BitBake generates a "run" shell script for
+each task and it is possible to create a checksum that gives you a good
+idea of when the task's data changes.
+
+To complicate the problem, some things should not be included in the
+checksum. First, there is the actual specific build path of a given task
+- the working directory. It does not matter if the working directory
+changes because it should not affect the output for target packages. The
+simplistic approach for excluding the working directory is to set it to
+some fixed value and create the checksum for the "run" script. BitBake
+goes one step better and uses the
+:term:`BB_BASEHASH_IGNORE_VARS` variable
+to define a list of variables that should never be included when
+generating the signatures.
+
+Another problem results from the "run" scripts containing functions that
+might or might not get called. The incremental build solution contains
+code that figures out dependencies between shell functions. This code is
+used to prune the "run" scripts down to the minimum set, thereby
+alleviating this problem and making the "run" scripts much more readable
+as a bonus.
+
+So far we have solutions for shell scripts. What about Python tasks? The
+same approach applies even though these tasks are more difficult. The
+process needs to figure out what variables a Python function accesses
+and what functions it calls. Again, the incremental build solution
+contains code that first figures out the variable and function
+dependencies, and then creates a checksum for the data used as the input
+to the task.
+
+Like the working directory case, situations exist where dependencies
+should be ignored. For these cases, you can instruct the build process
+to ignore a dependency by using a line like the following::
+
+ PACKAGE_ARCHS[vardepsexclude] = "MACHINE"
+
+This example ensures that the
+``PACKAGE_ARCHS`` variable does not depend on the value of ``MACHINE``,
+even if it does reference it.
+
+Equally, there are cases where we need to add dependencies BitBake is
+not able to find. You can accomplish this by using a line like the
+following::
+
+ PACKAGE_ARCHS[vardeps] = "MACHINE"
+
+This example explicitly
+adds the ``MACHINE`` variable as a dependency for ``PACKAGE_ARCHS``.
+
+Consider a case with in-line Python, for example, where BitBake is not
+able to figure out dependencies. When running in debug mode (i.e. using
+``-DDD``), BitBake produces output when it discovers something for which
+it cannot figure out dependencies.
+
+Thus far, this section has limited discussion to the direct inputs into
+a task. Information based on direct inputs is referred to as the
+"basehash" in the code. However, there is still the question of a task's
+indirect inputs --- the things that were already built and present in the
+build directory. The checksum (or signature) for a particular task needs
+to add the hashes of all the tasks on which the particular task depends.
+Choosing which dependencies to add is a policy decision. However, the
+effect is to generate a master checksum that combines the basehash and
+the hashes of the task's dependencies.
+
+At the code level, there are a variety of ways both the basehash and the
+dependent task hashes can be influenced. Within the BitBake
+configuration file, we can give BitBake some extra information to help
+it construct the basehash. The following statement effectively results
+in a list of global variable dependency excludes --- variables never
+included in any checksum. This example uses variables from OpenEmbedded
+to help illustrate the concept::
+
+ BB_BASEHASH_IGNORE_VARS ?= "TMPDIR FILE PATH PWD BB_TASKHASH BBPATH DL_DIR \
+ SSTATE_DIR THISDIR FILESEXTRAPATHS FILE_DIRNAME HOME LOGNAME SHELL \
+ USER FILESPATH STAGING_DIR_HOST STAGING_DIR_TARGET COREBASE PRSERV_HOST \
+ PRSERV_DUMPDIR PRSERV_DUMPFILE PRSERV_LOCKDOWN PARALLEL_MAKE \
+ CCACHE_DIR EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN CCACHE CCACHE_DISABLE LICENSE_PATH SDKPKGSUFFIX"
+
+The previous example excludes the work directory, which is part of
+``TMPDIR``.
+
+The rules for deciding which hashes of dependent tasks to include
+through dependency chains are more complex and are generally
+accomplished with a Python function. The code in
+``meta/lib/oe/sstatesig.py`` shows two examples of this and also
+illustrates how you can insert your own policy into the system if so
+desired. This file defines the basic signature generator
+OpenEmbedded-Core uses: "OEBasicHash". By default, there
+is a dummy "noop" signature handler enabled in BitBake. This means that
+behavior is unchanged from previous versions. ``OE-Core`` uses the
+"OEBasicHash" signature handler by default through this setting in the
+``bitbake.conf`` file::
+
+ BB_SIGNATURE_HANDLER ?= "OEBasicHash"
+
+The main feature of the "OEBasicHash" :term:`BB_SIGNATURE_HANDLER` is that
+it adds the task hash to the stamp files. Thanks to this, any metadata
+change will change the task hash, automatically causing the task to be run
+again. This removes the need to bump :term:`PR` values, and changes to
+metadata automatically ripple across the build.
+
+It is also worth noting that the end result of signature
+generators is to make some dependency and hash information available to
+the build. This information includes:
+
+- ``BB_BASEHASH_task-``\ *taskname*: The base hashes for each task in the
+ recipe.
+
+- ``BB_BASEHASH_``\ *filename:taskname*: The base hashes for each
+ dependent task.
+
+- :term:`BB_TASKHASH`: The hash of the currently running task.
+
+It is worth noting that BitBake's "-S" option lets you debug BitBake's
+processing of signatures. The options passed to -S allow different
+debugging modes to be used, either using BitBake's own debug functions
+or possibly those defined in the metadata/signature handler itself. The
+simplest parameter to pass is "none", which causes a set of signature
+information to be written out into ``STAMPS_DIR`` corresponding to the
+targets specified. The other currently available parameter is
+"printdiff", which causes BitBake to try to establish the most recent
+signature match it can (e.g. in the sstate cache) and then run
+compare the matched signatures to determine the stamps and delta
+where these two stamp trees diverge. This can be used to determine why
+tasks need to be re-run in situations where that is not expected.
+
+.. note::
+
+ It is likely that future versions of BitBake will provide other
+ signature handlers triggered through additional "-S" parameters.
+
+You can find more information on checksum metadata in the
+:ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:task checksums and setscene`
+section.
+
+Setscene
+========
+
+The setscene process enables BitBake to handle "pre-built" artifacts.
+The ability to handle and reuse these artifacts allows BitBake the
+luxury of not having to build something from scratch every time.
+Instead, BitBake can use, when possible, existing build artifacts.
+
+BitBake needs to have reliable data indicating whether or not an
+artifact is compatible. Signatures, described in the previous section,
+provide an ideal way of representing whether an artifact is compatible.
+If a signature is the same, an object can be reused.
+
+If an object can be reused, the problem then becomes how to replace a
+given task or set of tasks with the pre-built artifact. BitBake solves
+the problem with the "setscene" process.
+
+When BitBake is asked to build a given target, before building anything,
+it first asks whether cached information is available for any of the
+targets it's building, or any of the intermediate targets. If cached
+information is available, BitBake uses this information instead of
+running the main tasks.
+
+BitBake first calls the function defined by the
+:term:`BB_HASHCHECK_FUNCTION` variable
+with a list of tasks and corresponding hashes it wants to build. This
+function is designed to be fast and returns a list of the tasks for
+which it believes in can obtain artifacts.
+
+Next, for each of the tasks that were returned as possibilities, BitBake
+executes a setscene version of the task that the possible artifact
+covers. Setscene versions of a task have the string "_setscene" appended
+to the task name. So, for example, the task with the name ``xxx`` has a
+setscene task named ``xxx_setscene``. The setscene version of the task
+executes and provides the necessary artifacts returning either success
+or failure.
+
+As previously mentioned, an artifact can cover more than one task. For
+example, it is pointless to obtain a compiler if you already have the
+compiled binary. To handle this, BitBake calls the
+:term:`BB_SETSCENE_DEPVALID` function for
+each successful setscene task to know whether or not it needs to obtain
+the dependencies of that task.
+
+You can find more information on setscene metadata in the
+:ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:task checksums and setscene`
+section.
+
+Logging
+=======
+
+In addition to the standard command line option to control how verbose
+builds are when execute, bitbake also supports user defined
+configuration of the `Python
+logging <https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.html>`__ facilities
+through the :term:`BB_LOGCONFIG` variable. This
+variable defines a JSON or YAML `logging
+configuration <https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.config.html>`__
+that will be intelligently merged into the default configuration. The
+logging configuration is merged using the following rules:
+
+- The user defined configuration will completely replace the default
+ configuration if top level key ``bitbake_merge`` is set to the value
+ ``False``. In this case, all other rules are ignored.
+
+- The user configuration must have a top level ``version`` which must
+ match the value of the default configuration.
+
+- Any keys defined in the ``handlers``, ``formatters``, or ``filters``,
+ will be merged into the same section in the default configuration,
+ with the user specified keys taking replacing a default one if there
+ is a conflict. In practice, this means that if both the default
+ configuration and user configuration specify a handler named
+ ``myhandler``, the user defined one will replace the default. To
+ prevent the user from inadvertently replacing a default handler,
+ formatter, or filter, all of the default ones are named with a prefix
+ of "``BitBake.``"
+
+- If a logger is defined by the user with the key ``bitbake_merge`` set
+ to ``False``, that logger will be completely replaced by user
+ configuration. In this case, no other rules will apply to that
+ logger.
+
+- All user defined ``filter`` and ``handlers`` properties for a given
+ logger will be merged with corresponding properties from the default
+ logger. For example, if the user configuration adds a filter called
+ ``myFilter`` to the ``BitBake.SigGen``, and the default configuration
+ adds a filter called ``BitBake.defaultFilter``, both filters will be
+ applied to the logger
+
+As a first example, you can create a ``hashequiv.json`` user logging
+configuration file to log all Hash Equivalence related messages of ``VERBOSE``
+or higher priority to a file called ``hashequiv.log``::
+
+ {
+ "version": 1,
+ "handlers": {
+ "autobuilderlog": {
+ "class": "logging.FileHandler",
+ "formatter": "logfileFormatter",
+ "level": "DEBUG",
+ "filename": "hashequiv.log",
+ "mode": "w"
+ }
+ },
+ "formatters": {
+ "logfileFormatter": {
+ "format": "%(name)s: %(levelname)s: %(message)s"
+ }
+ },
+ "loggers": {
+ "BitBake.SigGen.HashEquiv": {
+ "level": "VERBOSE",
+ "handlers": ["autobuilderlog"]
+ },
+ "BitBake.RunQueue.HashEquiv": {
+ "level": "VERBOSE",
+ "handlers": ["autobuilderlog"]
+ }
+ }
+ }
+
+Then set the :term:`BB_LOGCONFIG` variable in ``conf/local.conf``::
+
+ BB_LOGCONFIG = "hashequiv.json"
+
+Another example is this ``warn.json`` file to log all ``WARNING`` and
+higher priority messages to a ``warn.log`` file::
+
+ {
+ "version": 1,
+ "formatters": {
+ "warnlogFormatter": {
+ "()": "bb.msg.BBLogFormatter",
+ "format": "%(levelname)s: %(message)s"
+ }
+ },
+
+ "handlers": {
+ "warnlog": {
+ "class": "logging.FileHandler",
+ "formatter": "warnlogFormatter",
+ "level": "WARNING",
+ "filename": "warn.log"
+ }
+ },
+
+ "loggers": {
+ "BitBake": {
+ "handlers": ["warnlog"]
+ }
+ },
+
+ "@disable_existing_loggers": false
+ }
+
+Note that BitBake's helper classes for structured logging are implemented in
+``lib/bb/msg.py``.

- The <filename>base.bbclass</filename> file is always included.
- Other classes that are specified in the configuration using the

- <para>
- A good way to get an idea of the configuration files and
- the class files used in your execution environment is to
- run the following BitBake command:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ bitbake -e > mybb.log

- shows you the many configuration files and class files

- You need to be aware of how BitBake parses curly braces.
- If a recipe uses a closing curly brace within the function and
- the character has no leading spaces, BitBake produces a parsing
- error.
- If you use a pair of curly braces in a shell function, the
- closing curly brace must not be located at the start of the line
- without leading spaces.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Here is an example that causes BitBake to produce a parsing
- error:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- fakeroot create_shar() {
- cat &lt;&lt; "EOF" &gt; ${SDK_DEPLOY}/${TOOLCHAIN_OUTPUTNAME}.sh
- usage()
- {
- echo "test"
- ###### The following "}" at the start of the line causes a parsing error ######
- }
- EOF
- }

- Writing the recipe this way avoids the error:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- fakeroot create_shar() {
- cat &lt;&lt; "EOF" &gt; ${SDK_DEPLOY}/${TOOLCHAIN_OUTPUTNAME}.sh

-
- <para>
- During the configuration phase, BitBake will have set
- <link linkend='var-bb-BBFILES'><filename>BBFILES</filename></link>.
- BitBake now uses it to construct a list of recipes to parse,
- along with any append files (<filename>.bbappend</filename>)
- to apply.
- <filename>BBFILES</filename> is a space-separated list of
- available files and supports wildcards.
- An example would be:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- BBFILES = "/path/to/bbfiles/*.bb /path/to/appends/*.bbappend"
- </literallayout>
- BitBake parses each recipe and append file located
- with <filename>BBFILES</filename> and stores the values of
- various variables into the datastore.
- <note>
- Append files are applied in the order they are encountered in
- <filename>BBFILES</filename>.
- </note>
- For each file, a fresh copy of the base configuration is
- made, then the recipe is parsed line by line.
- Any inherit statements cause BitBake to find and
- then parse class files (<filename>.bbclass</filename>)
- using
- <link linkend='var-bb-BBPATH'><filename>BBPATH</filename></link>
- as the search path.
- Finally, BitBake parses in order any append files found in
- <filename>BBFILES</filename>.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- One common convention is to use the recipe filename to define
- pieces of metadata.
- For example, in <filename>bitbake.conf</filename> the recipe
- name and version are used to set the variables
- <link linkend='var-bb-PN'><filename>PN</filename></link> and
- <link linkend='var-bb-PV'><filename>PV</filename></link>:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- PN = "${@bb.parse.BBHandler.vars_from_file(d.getVar('FILE', False),d)[0] or 'defaultpkgname'}"
- PV = "${@bb.parse.BBHandler.vars_from_file(d.getVar('FILE', False),d)[1] or '1.0'}"
- </literallayout>
- In this example, a recipe called "something_1.2.3.bb" would set
- <filename>PN</filename> to "something" and
- <filename>PV</filename> to "1.2.3".
- </para>
-
- <para>
- By the time parsing is complete for a recipe, BitBake
- has a list of tasks that the recipe defines and a set of
- data consisting of keys and values as well as
- dependency information about the tasks.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- BitBake does not need all of this information.
- It only needs a small subset of the information to make
- decisions about the recipe.
- Consequently, BitBake caches the values in which it is
- interested and does not store the rest of the information.
- Experience has shown it is faster to re-parse the metadata than to
- try and write it out to the disk and then reload it.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Where possible, subsequent BitBake commands reuse this cache of
- recipe information.
- The validity of this cache is determined by first computing a
- checksum of the base configuration data (see
- <link linkend='var-bb-BB_HASHCONFIG_WHITELIST'><filename>BB_HASHCONFIG_WHITELIST</filename></link>)
- and then checking if the checksum matches.
- If that checksum matches what is in the cache and the recipe
- and class files have not changed, Bitbake is able to use
- the cache.
- BitBake then reloads the cached information about the recipe
- instead of reparsing it from scratch.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Recipe file collections exist to allow the user to
- have multiple repositories of
- <filename>.bb</filename> files that contain the same
- exact package.
- For example, one could easily use them to make one's
- own local copy of an upstream repository, but with
- custom modifications that one does not want upstream.
- Here is an example:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- BBFILES = "/stuff/openembedded/*/*.bb /stuff/openembedded.modified/*/*.bb"
- BBFILE_COLLECTIONS = "upstream local"
- BBFILE_PATTERN_upstream = "^/stuff/openembedded/"

- BBFILE_PRIORITY_upstream = "5"
- BBFILE_PRIORITY_local = "10"
- </literallayout>

- The layers mechanism is now the preferred method of collecting
- code.
- While the collections code remains, its main use is to set layer
- priorities and to deal with overlap (conflicts) between layers.

- <title>Providers</title>
-
- <para>
- Assuming BitBake has been instructed to execute a target
- and that all the recipe files have been parsed, BitBake
- starts to figure out how to build the target.
- BitBake looks through the <filename>PROVIDES</filename> list
- for each of the recipes.
- A <filename>PROVIDES</filename> list is the list of names by which
- the recipe can be known.
- Each recipe's <filename>PROVIDES</filename> list is created
- implicitly through the recipe's
- <link linkend='var-bb-PN'><filename>PN</filename></link> variable
- and explicitly through the recipe's
- <link linkend='var-bb-PROVIDES'><filename>PROVIDES</filename></link>
- variable, which is optional.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- When a recipe uses <filename>PROVIDES</filename>, that recipe's
- functionality can be found under an alternative name or names other
- than the implicit <filename>PN</filename> name.
- As an example, suppose a recipe named <filename>keyboard_1.0.bb</filename>
- contained the following:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- PROVIDES += "fullkeyboard"
- </literallayout>
- The <filename>PROVIDES</filename> list for this recipe becomes
- "keyboard", which is implicit, and "fullkeyboard", which is explicit.
- Consequently, the functionality found in
- <filename>keyboard_1.0.bb</filename> can be found under two
- different names.
- </para>

- <section id='bb-bitbake-preferences'>
- <title>Preferences</title>
-
- <para>
- The <filename>PROVIDES</filename> list is only part of the solution
- for figuring out a target's recipes.
- Because targets might have multiple providers, BitBake needs
- to prioritize providers by determining provider preferences.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- A common example in which a target has multiple providers
- is "virtual/kernel", which is on the
- <filename>PROVIDES</filename> list for each kernel recipe.
- Each machine often selects the best kernel provider by using a
- line similar to the following in the machine configuration file:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "linux-yocto"
- </literallayout>
- The default
- <link linkend='var-bb-PREFERRED_PROVIDER'><filename>PREFERRED_PROVIDER</filename></link>
- is the provider with the same name as the target.
- Bitbake iterates through each target it needs to build and
- resolves them and their dependencies using this process.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Understanding how providers are chosen is made complicated by the fact
- that multiple versions might exist for a given provider.
- BitBake defaults to the highest version of a provider.
- Version comparisons are made using the same method as Debian.
- You can use the
- <link linkend='var-bb-PREFERRED_VERSION'><filename>PREFERRED_VERSION</filename></link>
- variable to specify a particular version.
- You can influence the order by using the
- <link linkend='var-bb-DEFAULT_PREFERENCE'><filename>DEFAULT_PREFERENCE</filename></link>
- variable.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- By default, files have a preference of "0".
- Setting <filename>DEFAULT_PREFERENCE</filename> to "-1" makes the
- recipe unlikely to be used unless it is explicitly referenced.
- Setting <filename>DEFAULT_PREFERENCE</filename> to "1" makes it
- likely the recipe is used.
- <filename>PREFERRED_VERSION</filename> overrides any
- <filename>DEFAULT_PREFERENCE</filename> setting.
- <filename>DEFAULT_PREFERENCE</filename> is often used to mark newer
- and more experimental recipe versions until they have undergone
- sufficient testing to be considered stable.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- When there are multiple “versions†of a given recipe,
- BitBake defaults to selecting the most recent
- version, unless otherwise specified.
- If the recipe in question has a
- <link linkend='var-bb-DEFAULT_PREFERENCE'><filename>DEFAULT_PREFERENCE</filename></link>
- set lower than the other recipes (default is 0), then
- it will not be selected.
- This allows the person or persons maintaining
- the repository of recipe files to specify
- their preference for the default selected version.
- Additionally, the user can specify their preferred version.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- If the first recipe is named <filename>a_1.1.bb</filename>, then the
- <link linkend='var-bb-PN'><filename>PN</filename></link> variable
- will be set to “aâ€, and the
- <link linkend='var-bb-PV'><filename>PV</filename></link>
- variable will be set to 1.1.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Thus, if a recipe named <filename>a_1.2.bb</filename> exists, BitBake
- will choose 1.2 by default.
- However, if you define the following variable in a
- <filename>.conf</filename> file that BitBake parses, you
- can change that preference:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- PREFERRED_VERSION_a = "1.1"
- </literallayout>
- </para>
-
- <note>
- <para>
- It is common for a recipe to provide two versions -- a stable,
- numbered (and preferred) version, and a version that is
- automatically checked out from a source code repository that
- is considered more "bleeding edge" but can be selected only
- explicitly.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- For example, in the OpenEmbedded codebase, there is a standard,
- versioned recipe file for BusyBox,
- <filename>busybox_1.22.1.bb</filename>,

- <filename>busybox_git.bb</filename>, which explicitly contains the line
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- DEFAULT_PREFERENCE = "-1"

- The build now starts with BitBake forking off threads up to the limit set in the
- <link linkend='var-bb-BB_NUMBER_THREADS'><filename>BB_NUMBER_THREADS</filename></link>

- BitBake continues to fork threads as long as there are tasks ready to run,
- those tasks have all their dependencies met, and the thread threshold has not been
- exceeded.
- </para>

- <para>
- It is worth noting that you can greatly speed up the build time by properly setting

- </para>
-
- <para>
- As each task completes, a timestamp is written to the directory specified by the
- <link linkend='var-bb-STAMP'><filename>STAMP</filename></link> variable.
- On subsequent runs, BitBake looks in the build directory within
- <filename>tmp/stamps</filename> and does not rerun
- tasks that are already completed unless a timestamp is found to be invalid.
- Currently, invalid timestamps are only considered on a per
- recipe file basis.
- So, for example, if the configure stamp has a timestamp greater than the
- compile timestamp for a given target, then the compile task would rerun.
- Running the compile task again, however, has no effect on other providers
- that depend on that target.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- The exact format of the stamps is partly configurable.
- In modern versions of BitBake, a hash is appended to the
- stamp so that if the configuration changes, the stamp becomes
- invalid and the task is automatically rerun.
- This hash, or signature used, is governed by the signature policy
- that is configured (see the
- "<link linkend='checksums'>Checksums (Signatures)</link>"
- section for information).
- It is also possible to append extra metadata to the stamp using
- the <filename>[stamp-extra-info]</filename> task flag.
- For example, OpenEmbedded uses this flag to make some tasks machine-specific.

- Tasks can be either a shell task or a Python task.
- For shell tasks, BitBake writes a shell script to
- <filename>${</filename><link linkend='var-bb-T'><filename>T</filename></link><filename>}/run.do_taskname.pid</filename>
- and then executes the script.
- The generated shell script contains all the exported variables,
- and the shell functions with all variables expanded.
- Output from the shell script goes to the file
- <filename>${T}/log.do_taskname.pid</filename>.
- Looking at the expanded shell functions in the run file and
- the output in the log files is a useful debugging technique.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- For Python tasks, BitBake executes the task internally and logs
- information to the controlling terminal.
- Future versions of BitBake will write the functions to files
- similar to the way shell tasks are handled.
- Logging will be handled in a way similar to shell tasks as well.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- The order in which BitBake runs the tasks is controlled by its

- <section id='checksums'>
- <title>Checksums (Signatures)</title>
-
- <para>
- A checksum is a unique signature of a task's inputs.
- The signature of a task can be used to determine if a task
- needs to be run.
- Because it is a change in a task's inputs that triggers running
- the task, BitBake needs to detect all the inputs to a given task.
- For shell tasks, this turns out to be fairly easy because
- BitBake generates a "run" shell script for each task and
- it is possible to create a checksum that gives you a good idea of when
- the task's data changes.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- To complicate the problem, some things should not be included in
- the checksum.
- First, there is the actual specific build path of a given task -
- the working directory.
- It does not matter if the working directory changes because it should not
- affect the output for target packages.
- The simplistic approach for excluding the working directory is to set
- it to some fixed value and create the checksum for the "run" script.
- BitBake goes one step better and uses the
- <link linkend='var-bb-BB_HASHBASE_WHITELIST'><filename>BB_HASHBASE_WHITELIST</filename></link>
- variable to define a list of variables that should never be included
- when generating the signatures.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Another problem results from the "run" scripts containing functions that
- might or might not get called.
- The incremental build solution contains code that figures out dependencies
- between shell functions.
- This code is used to prune the "run" scripts down to the minimum set,
- thereby alleviating this problem and making the "run" scripts much more
- readable as a bonus.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- So far we have solutions for shell scripts.
- What about Python tasks?
- The same approach applies even though these tasks are more difficult.
- The process needs to figure out what variables a Python function accesses
- and what functions it calls.
- Again, the incremental build solution contains code that first figures out
- the variable and function dependencies, and then creates a checksum for the data
- used as the input to the task.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Like the working directory case, situations exist where dependencies
- should be ignored.
- For these cases, you can instruct the build process to ignore a dependency
- by using a line like the following:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- PACKAGE_ARCHS[vardepsexclude] = "MACHINE"
- </literallayout>
- This example ensures that the <filename>PACKAGE_ARCHS</filename> variable does not
- depend on the value of <filename>MACHINE</filename>, even if it does reference it.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Equally, there are cases where we need to add dependencies BitBake
- is not able to find.
- You can accomplish this by using a line like the following:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- PACKAGE_ARCHS[vardeps] = "MACHINE"
- </literallayout>
- This example explicitly adds the <filename>MACHINE</filename> variable as a
- dependency for <filename>PACKAGE_ARCHS</filename>.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Consider a case with in-line Python, for example, where BitBake is not
- able to figure out dependencies.
- When running in debug mode (i.e. using <filename>-DDD</filename>), BitBake
- produces output when it discovers something for which it cannot figure out
- dependencies.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Thus far, this section has limited discussion to the direct inputs into a task.
- Information based on direct inputs is referred to as the "basehash" in the
- code.
- However, there is still the question of a task's indirect inputs - the
- things that were already built and present in the build directory.
- The checksum (or signature) for a particular task needs to add the hashes
- of all the tasks on which the particular task depends.
- Choosing which dependencies to add is a policy decision.
- However, the effect is to generate a master checksum that combines the basehash
- and the hashes of the task's dependencies.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- At the code level, there are a variety of ways both the basehash and the
- dependent task hashes can be influenced.
- Within the BitBake configuration file, we can give BitBake some extra information
- to help it construct the basehash.
- The following statement effectively results in a list of global variable
- dependency excludes - variables never included in any checksum.
- This example uses variables from OpenEmbedded to help illustrate
- the concept:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- BB_HASHBASE_WHITELIST ?= "TMPDIR FILE PATH PWD BB_TASKHASH BBPATH DL_DIR \
- SSTATE_DIR THISDIR FILESEXTRAPATHS FILE_DIRNAME HOME LOGNAME SHELL TERM \
- USER FILESPATH STAGING_DIR_HOST STAGING_DIR_TARGET COREBASE PRSERV_HOST \
- PRSERV_DUMPDIR PRSERV_DUMPFILE PRSERV_LOCKDOWN PARALLEL_MAKE \
- CCACHE_DIR EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN CCACHE CCACHE_DISABLE LICENSE_PATH SDKPKGSUFFIX"
- </literallayout>
- The previous example excludes the work directory, which is part of
- <filename>TMPDIR</filename>.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- The rules for deciding which hashes of dependent tasks to include through
- dependency chains are more complex and are generally accomplished with a
- Python function.
- The code in <filename>meta/lib/oe/sstatesig.py</filename> shows two examples
- of this and also illustrates how you can insert your own policy into the system
- if so desired.
- This file defines the two basic signature generators OpenEmbedded-Core
- uses: "OEBasic" and "OEBasicHash".
- By default, there is a dummy "noop" signature handler enabled in BitBake.
- This means that behavior is unchanged from previous versions.
- <filename>OE-Core</filename> uses the "OEBasicHash" signature handler by default
- through this setting in the <filename>bitbake.conf</filename> file:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- BB_SIGNATURE_HANDLER ?= "OEBasicHash"
- </literallayout>
- The "OEBasicHash" <filename>BB_SIGNATURE_HANDLER</filename> is the same as the
- "OEBasic" version but adds the task hash to the stamp files.
- This results in any metadata change that changes the task hash, automatically
- causing the task to be run again.
- This removes the need to bump
- <link linkend='var-bb-PR'><filename>PR</filename></link>
- values, and changes to metadata automatically ripple across the build.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- It is also worth noting that the end result of these signature generators is to
- make some dependency and hash information available to the build.
- This information includes:
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem><para><filename>BB_BASEHASH_task-</filename><replaceable>taskname</replaceable>:
- The base hashes for each task in the recipe.

- </itemizedlist>
- </para>
-
- <para>
- It is worth noting that BitBake's "-S" option lets you
- debug Bitbake's processing of signatures.
- The options passed to -S allow different debugging modes
- to be used, either using BitBake's own debug functions
- or possibly those defined in the metadata/signature handler
- itself.
- The simplest parameter to pass is "none", which causes a
- set of signature information to be written out into
- <filename>STAMPS_DIR</filename>
- corresponding to the targets specified.
- The other currently available parameter is "printdiff",
- which causes BitBake to try to establish the closest
- signature match it can (e.g. in the sstate cache) and then
- run <filename>bitbake-diffsigs</filename> over the matches
- to determine the stamps and delta where these two
- stamp trees diverge.
- <note>
- It is likely that future versions of BitBake will
- provide other signature handlers triggered through

+=====================
+File Download Support
+=====================
+
+|
+
+BitBake's fetch module is a standalone piece of library code that deals
+with the intricacies of downloading source code and files from remote
+systems. Fetching source code is one of the cornerstones of building
+software. As such, this module forms an important part of BitBake.
+
+The current fetch module is called "fetch2" and refers to the fact that
+it is the second major version of the API. The original version is
+obsolete and has been removed from the codebase. Thus, in all cases,
+"fetch" refers to "fetch2" in this manual.
+
+The Download (Fetch)
+====================
+
+BitBake takes several steps when fetching source code or files. The
+fetcher codebase deals with two distinct processes in order: obtaining
+the files from somewhere (cached or otherwise) and then unpacking those
+files into a specific location and perhaps in a specific way. Getting
+and unpacking the files is often optionally followed by patching.
+Patching, however, is not covered by this module.
+
+The code to execute the first part of this process, a fetch, looks
+something like the following::
+
+ src_uri = (d.getVar('SRC_URI') or "").split()
+ fetcher = bb.fetch2.Fetch(src_uri, d)
+ fetcher.download()
+
+This code sets up an instance of the fetch class. The instance uses a
+space-separated list of URLs from the :term:`SRC_URI`
+variable and then calls the ``download`` method to download the files.
+
+The instantiation of the fetch class is usually followed by::
+
+ rootdir = l.getVar('WORKDIR')
+ fetcher.unpack(rootdir)
+
+This code unpacks the downloaded files to the specified by ``WORKDIR``.
+
+.. note::
+
+ For convenience, the naming in these examples matches the variables
+ used by OpenEmbedded. If you want to see the above code in action,
+ examine the OpenEmbedded class file ``base.bbclass``
+ .
+
+The :term:`SRC_URI` and ``WORKDIR`` variables are not hardcoded into the
+fetcher, since those fetcher methods can be (and are) called with
+different variable names. In OpenEmbedded for example, the shared state
+(sstate) code uses the fetch module to fetch the sstate files.
+
+When the ``download()`` method is called, BitBake tries to resolve the
+URLs by looking for source files in a specific search order:
+
+- *Pre-mirror Sites:* BitBake first uses pre-mirrors to try and find
+ source files. These locations are defined using the
+ :term:`PREMIRRORS` variable.
+
+- *Source URI:* If pre-mirrors fail, BitBake uses the original URL (e.g
+ from :term:`SRC_URI`).
+
+- *Mirror Sites:* If fetch failures occur, BitBake next uses mirror
+ locations as defined by the :term:`MIRRORS` variable.
+
+For each URL passed to the fetcher, the fetcher calls the submodule that
+handles that particular URL type. This behavior can be the source of
+some confusion when you are providing URLs for the :term:`SRC_URI` variable.
+Consider the following two URLs::
+
+ https://git.yoctoproject.org/git/poky;protocol=git
+ git://git.yoctoproject.org/git/poky;protocol=http
+
+In the former case, the URL is passed to the ``wget`` fetcher, which does not
+understand "git". Therefore, the latter case is the correct form since the Git
+fetcher does know how to use HTTP as a transport.
+
+Here are some examples that show commonly used mirror definitions::
+
+ PREMIRRORS ?= "\
+ bzr://.*/.\* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \
+ cvs://.*/.\* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \
+ git://.*/.\* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \
+ hg://.*/.\* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \
+ osc://.*/.\* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \
+ p4://.*/.\* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \
+ svn://.*/.\* http://somemirror.org/sources/"
+
+ MIRRORS =+ "\
+ ftp://.*/.\* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \
+ http://.*/.\* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \
+ https://.*/.\* http://somemirror.org/sources/"
+
+It is useful to note that BitBake
+supports cross-URLs. It is possible to mirror a Git repository on an
+HTTP server as a tarball. This is what the ``git://`` mapping in the
+previous example does.
+
+Since network accesses are slow, BitBake maintains a cache of files
+downloaded from the network. Any source files that are not local (i.e.
+downloaded from the Internet) are placed into the download directory,
+which is specified by the :term:`DL_DIR` variable.
+
+File integrity is of key importance for reproducing builds. For
+non-local archive downloads, the fetcher code can verify SHA-256 and MD5
+checksums to ensure the archives have been downloaded correctly. You can
+specify these checksums by using the :term:`SRC_URI` variable with the
+appropriate varflags as follows::
+
+ SRC_URI[md5sum] = "value"
+ SRC_URI[sha256sum] = "value"
+
+You can also specify the checksums as
+parameters on the :term:`SRC_URI` as shown below::
+
+ SRC_URI = "http://example.com/foobar.tar.bz2;md5sum=4a8e0f237e961fd7785d19d07fdb994d"
+
+If multiple URIs exist, you can specify the checksums either directly as
+in the previous example, or you can name the URLs. The following syntax
+shows how you name the URIs::
+
+ SRC_URI = "http://example.com/foobar.tar.bz2;name=foo"
+ SRC_URI[foo.md5sum] = 4a8e0f237e961fd7785d19d07fdb994d
+
+After a file has been downloaded and
+has had its checksum checked, a ".done" stamp is placed in :term:`DL_DIR`.
+BitBake uses this stamp during subsequent builds to avoid downloading or
+comparing a checksum for the file again.
+
+.. note::
+
+ It is assumed that local storage is safe from data corruption. If
+ this were not the case, there would be bigger issues to worry about.
+
+If :term:`BB_STRICT_CHECKSUM` is set, any
+download without a checksum triggers an error message. The
+:term:`BB_NO_NETWORK` variable can be used to
+make any attempted network access a fatal error, which is useful for
+checking that mirrors are complete as well as other things.
+
+If :term:`BB_CHECK_SSL_CERTS` is set to ``0`` then SSL certificate checking will
+be disabled. This variable defaults to ``1`` so SSL certificates are normally
+checked.
+
+.. _bb-the-unpack:
+
+The Unpack
+==========
+
+The unpack process usually immediately follows the download. For all
+URLs except Git URLs, BitBake uses the common ``unpack`` method.
+
+A number of parameters exist that you can specify within the URL to
+govern the behavior of the unpack stage:
+
+- *unpack:* Controls whether the URL components are unpacked. If set to
+ "1", which is the default, the components are unpacked. If set to
+ "0", the unpack stage leaves the file alone. This parameter is useful
+ when you want an archive to be copied in and not be unpacked.
+
+- *dos:* Applies to ``.zip`` and ``.jar`` files and specifies whether
+ to use DOS line ending conversion on text files.
+
+- *striplevel:* Strip specified number of leading components (levels)
+ from file names on extraction
+
+- *subdir:* Unpacks the specific URL to the specified subdirectory
+ within the root directory.
+
+The unpack call automatically decompresses and extracts files with ".Z",
+".z", ".gz", ".xz", ".zip", ".jar", ".ipk", ".rpm". ".srpm", ".deb" and
+".bz2" extensions as well as various combinations of tarball extensions.
+
+As mentioned, the Git fetcher has its own unpack method that is
+optimized to work with Git trees. Basically, this method works by
+cloning the tree into the final directory. The process is completed
+using references so that there is only one central copy of the Git
+metadata needed.
+
+.. _bb-fetchers:
+
+Fetchers
+========
+
+As mentioned earlier, the URL prefix determines which fetcher submodule
+BitBake uses. Each submodule can support different URL parameters, which
+are described in the following sections.
+
+.. _local-file-fetcher:
+
+Local file fetcher (``file://``)
+--------------------------------
+
+This submodule handles URLs that begin with ``file://``. The filename
+you specify within the URL can be either an absolute or relative path to
+a file. If the filename is relative, the contents of the
+:term:`FILESPATH` variable is used in the same way
+``PATH`` is used to find executables. If the file cannot be found, it is
+assumed that it is available in :term:`DL_DIR` by the
+time the ``download()`` method is called.
+
+If you specify a directory, the entire directory is unpacked.
+
+Here are a couple of example URLs, the first relative and the second
+absolute::
+
+ SRC_URI = "file://relativefile.patch"
+ SRC_URI = "file:///Users/ich/very_important_software"
+
+.. _http-ftp-fetcher:
+
+HTTP/FTP wget fetcher (``http://``, ``ftp://``, ``https://``)
+-------------------------------------------------------------
+
+This fetcher obtains files from web and FTP servers. Internally, the
+fetcher uses the wget utility.
+
+The executable and parameters used are specified by the
+``FETCHCMD_wget`` variable, which defaults to sensible values. The
+fetcher supports a parameter "downloadfilename" that allows the name of
+the downloaded file to be specified. Specifying the name of the
+downloaded file is useful for avoiding collisions in
+:term:`DL_DIR` when dealing with multiple files that
+have the same name.
+
+If a username and password are specified in the ``SRC_URI``, a Basic
+Authorization header will be added to each request, including across redirects.
+To instead limit the Authorization header to the first request, add
+"redirectauth=0" to the list of parameters.
+
+Some example URLs are as follows::
+
+ SRC_URI = "http://oe.handhelds.org/not_there.aac"
+ SRC_URI = "ftp://oe.handhelds.org/not_there_as_well.aac"
+ SRC_URI = "ftp://you@oe.handhelds.org/home/you/secret.plan"
+
+.. note::
+
+ Because URL parameters are delimited by semi-colons, this can
+ introduce ambiguity when parsing URLs that also contain semi-colons,
+ for example::
+
+ SRC_URI = "http://abc123.org/git/?p=gcc/gcc.git;a=snapshot;h=a5dd47"
+
+
+ Such URLs should should be modified by replacing semi-colons with '&'
+ characters::
+
+ SRC_URI = "http://abc123.org/git/?p=gcc/gcc.git&a=snapshot&h=a5dd47"
+
+
+ In most cases this should work. Treating semi-colons and '&' in
+ queries identically is recommended by the World Wide Web Consortium
+ (W3C). Note that due to the nature of the URL, you may have to
+ specify the name of the downloaded file as well::
+
+ SRC_URI = "http://abc123.org/git/?p=gcc/gcc.git&a=snapshot&h=a5dd47;downloadfilename=myfile.bz2"
+
+
+.. _cvs-fetcher:
+
+CVS fetcher (``(cvs://``)
+-------------------------
+
+This submodule handles checking out files from the CVS version control
+system. You can configure it using a number of different variables:
+
+- :term:`FETCHCMD_cvs <FETCHCMD>`: The name of the executable to use when running
+ the ``cvs`` command. This name is usually "cvs".
+
+- :term:`SRCDATE`: The date to use when fetching the CVS source code. A
+ special value of "now" causes the checkout to be updated on every
+ build.
+
+- :term:`CVSDIR`: Specifies where a temporary
+ checkout is saved. The location is often ``DL_DIR/cvs``.
+
+- CVS_PROXY_HOST: The name to use as a "proxy=" parameter to the
+ ``cvs`` command.
+
+- CVS_PROXY_PORT: The port number to use as a "proxyport="
+ parameter to the ``cvs`` command.
+
+As well as the standard username and password URL syntax, you can also
+configure the fetcher with various URL parameters:
+
+The supported parameters are as follows:
+
+- *"method":* The protocol over which to communicate with the CVS
+ server. By default, this protocol is "pserver". If "method" is set to
+ "ext", BitBake examines the "rsh" parameter and sets ``CVS_RSH``. You
+ can use "dir" for local directories.
+
+- *"module":* Specifies the module to check out. You must supply this
+ parameter.
+
+- *"tag":* Describes which CVS TAG should be used for the checkout. By
+ default, the TAG is empty.
+
+- *"date":* Specifies a date. If no "date" is specified, the
+ :term:`SRCDATE` of the configuration is used to
+ checkout a specific date. The special value of "now" causes the
+ checkout to be updated on every build.
+
+- *"localdir":* Used to rename the module. Effectively, you are
+ renaming the output directory to which the module is unpacked. You
+ are forcing the module into a special directory relative to
+ :term:`CVSDIR`.
+
+- *"rsh":* Used in conjunction with the "method" parameter.
+
+- *"scmdata":* Causes the CVS metadata to be maintained in the tarball
+ the fetcher creates when set to "keep". The tarball is expanded into
+ the work directory. By default, the CVS metadata is removed.
+
+- *"fullpath":* Controls whether the resulting checkout is at the
+ module level, which is the default, or is at deeper paths.
+
+- *"norecurse":* Causes the fetcher to only checkout the specified
+ directory with no recurse into any subdirectories.
+
+- *"port":* The port to which the CVS server connects.
+
+Some example URLs are as follows::
+
+ SRC_URI = "cvs://CVSROOT;module=mymodule;tag=some-version;method=ext"
+ SRC_URI = "cvs://CVSROOT;module=mymodule;date=20060126;localdir=usethat"
+
+.. _svn-fetcher:
+
+Subversion (SVN) Fetcher (``svn://``)
+-------------------------------------
+
+This fetcher submodule fetches code from the Subversion source control
+system. The executable used is specified by ``FETCHCMD_svn``, which
+defaults to "svn". The fetcher's temporary working directory is set by
+:term:`SVNDIR`, which is usually ``DL_DIR/svn``.
+
+The supported parameters are as follows:
+
+- *"module":* The name of the svn module to checkout. You must provide
+ this parameter. You can think of this parameter as the top-level
+ directory of the repository data you want.
+
+- *"path_spec":* A specific directory in which to checkout the
+ specified svn module.
+
+- *"protocol":* The protocol to use, which defaults to "svn". If
+ "protocol" is set to "svn+ssh", the "ssh" parameter is also used.
+
+- *"rev":* The revision of the source code to checkout.
+
+- *"scmdata":* Causes the ".svn" directories to be available during
+ compile-time when set to "keep". By default, these directories are
+ removed.
+
+- *"ssh":* An optional parameter used when "protocol" is set to
+ "svn+ssh". You can use this parameter to specify the ssh program used
+ by svn.
+
+- *"transportuser":* When required, sets the username for the
+ transport. By default, this parameter is empty. The transport
+ username is different than the username used in the main URL, which
+ is passed to the subversion command.
+
+Following are three examples using svn::
+
+ SRC_URI = "svn://myrepos/proj1;module=vip;protocol=http;rev=667"
+ SRC_URI = "svn://myrepos/proj1;module=opie;protocol=svn+ssh"
+ SRC_URI = "svn://myrepos/proj1;module=trunk;protocol=http;path_spec=${MY_DIR}/proj1"
+
+.. _git-fetcher:
+
+Git Fetcher (``git://``)
+------------------------
+
+This fetcher submodule fetches code from the Git source control system.
+The fetcher works by creating a bare clone of the remote into
+:term:`GITDIR`, which is usually ``DL_DIR/git2``. This
+bare clone is then cloned into the work directory during the unpack
+stage when a specific tree is checked out. This is done using alternates
+and by reference to minimize the amount of duplicate data on the disk
+and make the unpack process fast. The executable used can be set with
+``FETCHCMD_git``.
+
+This fetcher supports the following parameters:
+
+- *"protocol":* The protocol used to fetch the files. The default is
+ "git" when a hostname is set. If a hostname is not set, the Git
+ protocol is "file". You can also use "http", "https", "ssh" and
+ "rsync".
+
+ .. note::
+
+ When ``protocol`` is "ssh", the URL expected in :term:`SRC_URI` differs
+ from the one that is typically passed to ``git clone`` command and provided
+ by the Git server to fetch from. For example, the URL returned by GitLab
+ server for ``mesa`` when cloning over SSH is
+ ``git@gitlab.freedesktop.org:mesa/mesa.git``, however the expected URL in
+ :term:`SRC_URI` is the following::
+
+ SRC_URI = "git://git@gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa.git;branch=main;protocol=ssh;..."
+
+ Note the ``:`` character changed for a ``/`` before the path to the project.
+
+- *"nocheckout":* Tells the fetcher to not checkout source code when
+ unpacking when set to "1". Set this option for the URL where there is
+ a custom routine to checkout code. The default is "0".
+
+- *"rebaseable":* Indicates that the upstream Git repository can be
+ rebased. You should set this parameter to "1" if revisions can become
+ detached from branches. In this case, the source mirror tarball is
+ done per revision, which has a loss of efficiency. Rebasing the
+ upstream Git repository could cause the current revision to disappear
+ from the upstream repository. This option reminds the fetcher to
+ preserve the local cache carefully for future use. The default value
+ for this parameter is "0".
+
+- *"nobranch":* Tells the fetcher to not check the SHA validation for
+ the branch when set to "1". The default is "0". Set this option for
+ the recipe that refers to the commit that is valid for any namespace
+ (branch, tag, ...) instead of the branch.
+
+- *"bareclone":* Tells the fetcher to clone a bare clone into the
+ destination directory without checking out a working tree. Only the
+ raw Git metadata is provided. This parameter implies the "nocheckout"
+ parameter as well.
+
+- *"branch":* The branch(es) of the Git tree to clone. Unless
+ "nobranch" is set to "1", this is a mandatory parameter. The number of
+ branch parameters must match the number of name parameters.
+
+- *"rev":* The revision to use for the checkout. The default is
+ "master".
+
+- *"tag":* Specifies a tag to use for the checkout. To correctly
+ resolve tags, BitBake must access the network. For that reason, tags
+ are often not used. As far as Git is concerned, the "tag" parameter
+ behaves effectively the same as the "rev" parameter.
+
+- *"subpath":* Limits the checkout to a specific subpath of the tree.
+ By default, the whole tree is checked out.
+
+- *"destsuffix":* The name of the path in which to place the checkout.
+ By default, the path is ``git/``.
+
+- *"usehead":* Enables local ``git://`` URLs to use the current branch
+ HEAD as the revision for use with ``AUTOREV``. The "usehead"
+ parameter implies no branch and only works when the transfer protocol
+ is ``file://``.
+
+Here are some example URLs::
+
+ SRC_URI = "git://github.com/fronteed/icheck.git;protocol=https;branch=${PV};tag=${PV}"
+ SRC_URI = "git://github.com/asciidoc/asciidoc-py;protocol=https;branch=main"
+ SRC_URI = "git://git@gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa.git;branch=main;protocol=ssh;..."
+
+.. note::
+
+ When using ``git`` as the fetcher of the main source code of your software,
+ ``S`` should be set accordingly::
+
+ S = "${WORKDIR}/git"
+
+.. note::
+
+ Specifying passwords directly in ``git://`` urls is not supported.
+ There are several reasons: :term:`SRC_URI` is often written out to logs and
+ other places, and that could easily leak passwords; it is also all too
+ easy to share metadata without removing passwords. SSH keys, ``~/.netrc``
+ and ``~/.ssh/config`` files can be used as alternatives.
+
+Using tags with the git fetcher may cause surprising behaviour. Bitbake needs to
+resolve the tag to a specific revision and to do that, it has to connect to and use
+the upstream repository. This is because the revision the tags point at can change and
+we've seen cases of this happening in well known public repositories. This can mean
+many more network connections than expected and recipes may be reparsed at every build.
+Source mirrors will also be bypassed as the upstream repository is the only source
+of truth to resolve the revision accurately. For these reasons, whilst the fetcher
+can support tags, we recommend being specific about revisions in recipes.
+
+.. _gitsm-fetcher:
+
+Git Submodule Fetcher (``gitsm://``)
+------------------------------------
+
+This fetcher submodule inherits from the :ref:`Git
+fetcher<bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-fetching:git fetcher
+(\`\`git://\`\`)>` and extends that fetcher's behavior by fetching a
+repository's submodules. :term:`SRC_URI` is passed to the Git fetcher as
+described in the :ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-fetching:git
+fetcher (\`\`git://\`\`)` section.
+
+.. note::
+
+ You must clean a recipe when switching between '``git://``' and
+ '``gitsm://``' URLs.
+
+ The Git Submodules fetcher is not a complete fetcher implementation.
+ The fetcher has known issues where it does not use the normal source
+ mirroring infrastructure properly. Further, the submodule sources it
+ fetches are not visible to the licensing and source archiving
+ infrastructures.
+
+.. _clearcase-fetcher:
+
+ClearCase Fetcher (``ccrc://``)
+-------------------------------
+
+This fetcher submodule fetches code from a
+`ClearCase <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_ClearCase>`__
+repository.
+
+To use this fetcher, make sure your recipe has proper
+:term:`SRC_URI`, :term:`SRCREV`, and
+:term:`PV` settings. Here is an example::
+
+ SRC_URI = "ccrc://cc.example.org/ccrc;vob=/example_vob;module=/example_module"
+ SRCREV = "EXAMPLE_CLEARCASE_TAG"
+ PV = "${@d.getVar("SRCREV", False).replace("/", "+")}"
+
+The fetcher uses the ``rcleartool`` or
+``cleartool`` remote client, depending on which one is available.
+
+Following are options for the :term:`SRC_URI` statement:
+
+- *vob*: The name, which must include the prepending "/" character,
+ of the ClearCase VOB. This option is required.
+
+- *module*: The module, which must include the prepending "/"
+ character, in the selected VOB.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The module and vob options are combined to create the load rule in the
+ view config spec. As an example, consider the vob and module values from
+ the SRC_URI statement at the start of this section. Combining those values
+ results in the following::
+
+ load /example_vob/example_module
+
+- *proto*: The protocol, which can be either ``http`` or ``https``.
+
+By default, the fetcher creates a configuration specification. If you
+want this specification written to an area other than the default, use
+the ``CCASE_CUSTOM_CONFIG_SPEC`` variable in your recipe to define where
+the specification is written.
+
+.. note::
+
+ the SRCREV loses its functionality if you specify this variable. However,
+ SRCREV is still used to label the archive after a fetch even though it does
+ not define what is fetched.
+
+Here are a couple of other behaviors worth mentioning:
+
+- When using ``cleartool``, the login of ``cleartool`` is handled by
+ the system. The login require no special steps.
+
+- In order to use ``rcleartool`` with authenticated users, an
+ "rcleartool login" is necessary before using the fetcher.
+
+.. _perforce-fetcher:
+
+Perforce Fetcher (``p4://``)
+----------------------------
+
+This fetcher submodule fetches code from the
+`Perforce <https://www.perforce.com/>`__ source control system. The
+executable used is specified by ``FETCHCMD_p4``, which defaults to "p4".
+The fetcher's temporary working directory is set by
+:term:`P4DIR`, which defaults to "DL_DIR/p4".
+The fetcher does not make use of a perforce client, instead it
+relies on ``p4 files`` to retrieve a list of
+files and ``p4 print`` to transfer the content
+of those files locally.
+
+To use this fetcher, make sure your recipe has proper
+:term:`SRC_URI`, :term:`SRCREV`, and
+:term:`PV` values. The p4 executable is able to use the
+config file defined by your system's ``P4CONFIG`` environment variable
+in order to define the Perforce server URL and port, username, and
+password if you do not wish to keep those values in a recipe itself. If
+you choose not to use ``P4CONFIG``, or to explicitly set variables that
+``P4CONFIG`` can contain, you can specify the ``P4PORT`` value, which is
+the server's URL and port number, and you can specify a username and
+password directly in your recipe within :term:`SRC_URI`.
+
+Here is an example that relies on ``P4CONFIG`` to specify the server URL
+and port, username, and password, and fetches the Head Revision::
+
+ SRC_URI = "p4://example-depot/main/source/..."
+ SRCREV = "${AUTOREV}"
+ PV = "p4-${SRCPV}"
+ S = "${WORKDIR}/p4"
+
+Here is an example that specifies the server URL and port, username, and
+password, and fetches a Revision based on a Label::
+
+ P4PORT = "tcp:p4server.example.net:1666"
+ SRC_URI = "p4://user:passwd@example-depot/main/source/..."
+ SRCREV = "release-1.0"
+ PV = "p4-${SRCPV}"
+ S = "${WORKDIR}/p4"
+
+.. note::
+
+ You should always set S to "${WORKDIR}/p4" in your recipe.
+
+By default, the fetcher strips the depot location from the local file paths. In
+the above example, the content of ``example-depot/main/source/`` will be placed
+in ``${WORKDIR}/p4``. For situations where preserving parts of the remote depot
+paths locally is desirable, the fetcher supports two parameters:
+
+- *"module":*
+ The top-level depot location or directory to fetch. The value of this
+ parameter can also point to a single file within the depot, in which case
+ the local file path will include the module path.
+- *"remotepath":*
+ When used with the value "``keep``", the fetcher will mirror the full depot
+ paths locally for the specified location, even in combination with the
+ ``module`` parameter.
+
+Here is an example use of the the ``module`` parameter::
+
+ SRC_URI = "p4://user:passwd@example-depot/main;module=source/..."
+
+In this case, the content of the top-level directory ``source/`` will be fetched
+to ``${P4DIR}``, including the directory itself. The top-level directory will
+be accesible at ``${P4DIR}/source/``.
+
+Here is an example use of the the ``remotepath`` parameter::
+
+ SRC_URI = "p4://user:passwd@example-depot/main;module=source/...;remotepath=keep"
+
+In this case, the content of the top-level directory ``source/`` will be fetched
+to ``${P4DIR}``, but the complete depot paths will be mirrored locally. The
+top-level directory will be accessible at
+``${P4DIR}/example-depot/main/source/``.
+
+.. _repo-fetcher:
+
+Repo Fetcher (``repo://``)
+--------------------------
+
+This fetcher submodule fetches code from ``google-repo`` source control
+system. The fetcher works by initiating and syncing sources of the
+repository into :term:`REPODIR`, which is usually
+``${DL_DIR}/repo``.
+
+This fetcher supports the following parameters:
+
+- *"protocol":* Protocol to fetch the repository manifest (default:
+ git).
+
+- *"branch":* Branch or tag of repository to get (default: master).
+
+- *"manifest":* Name of the manifest file (default: ``default.xml``).
+
+Here are some example URLs::
+
+ SRC_URI = "repo://REPOROOT;protocol=git;branch=some_branch;manifest=my_manifest.xml"
+ SRC_URI = "repo://REPOROOT;protocol=file;branch=some_branch;manifest=my_manifest.xml"
+
+.. _az-fetcher:
+
+Az Fetcher (``az://``)
+--------------------------
+
+This submodule fetches data from an
+`Azure Storage account <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/>`__ ,
+it inherits its functionality from the HTTP wget fetcher, but modifies its
+behavior to accomodate the usage of a
+`Shared Access Signature (SAS) <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/common/storage-sas-overview>`__
+for non-public data.
+
+Such functionality is set by the variable:
+
+- :term:`AZ_SAS`: The Azure Storage Shared Access Signature provides secure
+ delegate access to resources, if this variable is set, the Az Fetcher will
+ use it when fetching artifacts from the cloud.
+
+You can specify the AZ_SAS variable as shown below::
+
+ AZ_SAS = "se=2021-01-01&sp=r&sv=2018-11-09&sr=c&skoid=<skoid>&sig=<signature>"
+
+Here is an example URL::
+
+ SRC_URI = "az://<azure-storage-account>.blob.core.windows.net/<foo_container>/<bar_file>"
+
+It can also be used when setting mirrors definitions using the :term:`PREMIRRORS` variable.
+
+.. _gcp-fetcher:
+
+GCP Fetcher (``gs://``)
+--------------------------
+
+This submodule fetches data from a
+`Google Cloud Storage Bucket <https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/buckets>`__.
+It uses the `Google Cloud Storage Python Client <https://cloud.google.com/python/docs/reference/storage/latest>`__
+to check the status of objects in the bucket and download them.
+The use of the Python client makes it substantially faster than using command
+line tools such as gsutil.
+
+The fetcher requires the Google Cloud Storage Python Client to be installed, along
+with the gsutil tool.
+
+The fetcher requires that the machine has valid credentials for accessing the
+chosen bucket. Instructions for authentication can be found in the
+`Google Cloud documentation <https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/provide-credentials-adc#local-dev>`__.
+
+If it used from the OpenEmbedded build system, the fetcher can be used for
+fetching sstate artifacts from a GCS bucket by specifying the
+``SSTATE_MIRRORS`` variable as shown below::
+
+ SSTATE_MIRRORS ?= "\
+ file://.* gs://<bucket name>/PATH \
+ "
+
+The fetcher can also be used in recipes::
+
+ SRC_URI = "gs://<bucket name>/<foo_container>/<bar_file>"
+
+However, the checksum of the file should be also be provided::
+
+ SRC_URI[sha256sum] = "<sha256 string>"
+
+.. _crate-fetcher:
+
+Crate Fetcher (``crate://``)
+----------------------------
+
+This submodule fetches code for
+`Rust language "crates" <https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/glossary.html?highlight=crate#crate>`__
+corresponding to Rust libraries and programs to compile. Such crates are typically shared
+on https://crates.io/ but this fetcher supports other crate registries too.
+
+The format for the :term:`SRC_URI` setting must be::
+
+ SRC_URI = "crate://REGISTRY/NAME/VERSION"
+
+Here is an example URL::
+
+ SRC_URI = "crate://crates.io/glob/0.2.11"
+
+.. _npm-fetcher:
+
+NPM Fetcher (``npm://``)
+------------------------
+
+This submodule fetches source code from an
+`NPM <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Npm_(software)>`__
+Javascript package registry.
+
+The format for the :term:`SRC_URI` setting must be::
+
+ SRC_URI = "npm://some.registry.url;ParameterA=xxx;ParameterB=xxx;..."
+
+This fetcher supports the following parameters:
+
+- *"package":* The NPM package name. This is a mandatory parameter.
+
+- *"version":* The NPM package version. This is a mandatory parameter.
+
+- *"downloadfilename":* Specifies the filename used when storing the downloaded file.
+
+- *"destsuffix":* Specifies the directory to use to unpack the package (default: ``npm``).
+
+Note that NPM fetcher only fetches the package source itself. The dependencies
+can be fetched through the `npmsw-fetcher`_.
+
+Here is an example URL with both fetchers::
+
+ SRC_URI = " \
+ npm://registry.npmjs.org/;package=cute-files;version=${PV} \
+ npmsw://${THISDIR}/${BPN}/npm-shrinkwrap.json \
+ "
+
+See :yocto_docs:`Creating Node Package Manager (NPM) Packages
+</dev-manual/packages.html#creating-node-package-manager-npm-packages>`
+in the Yocto Project manual for details about using
+:yocto_docs:`devtool <https://docs.yoctoproject.org/ref-manual/devtool-reference.html>`
+to automatically create a recipe from an NPM URL.
+
+.. _npmsw-fetcher:
+
+NPM shrinkwrap Fetcher (``npmsw://``)
+-------------------------------------
+
+This submodule fetches source code from an
+`NPM shrinkwrap <https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v8/commands/npm-shrinkwrap>`__
+description file, which lists the dependencies
+of an NPM package while locking their versions.
+
+The format for the :term:`SRC_URI` setting must be::
+
+ SRC_URI = "npmsw://some.registry.url;ParameterA=xxx;ParameterB=xxx;..."
+
+This fetcher supports the following parameters:
+
+- *"dev":* Set this parameter to ``1`` to install "devDependencies".
+
+- *"destsuffix":* Specifies the directory to use to unpack the dependencies
+ (``${S}`` by default).
+
+Note that the shrinkwrap file can also be provided by the recipe for
+the package which has such dependencies, for example::
+
+ SRC_URI = " \
+ npm://registry.npmjs.org/;package=cute-files;version=${PV} \
+ npmsw://${THISDIR}/${BPN}/npm-shrinkwrap.json \
+ "
+
+Such a file can automatically be generated using
+:yocto_docs:`devtool <https://docs.yoctoproject.org/ref-manual/devtool-reference.html>`
+as described in the :yocto_docs:`Creating Node Package Manager (NPM) Packages
+</dev-manual/packages.html#creating-node-package-manager-npm-packages>`
+section of the Yocto Project.
+
+Other Fetchers
+--------------
+
+Fetch submodules also exist for the following:
+
+- Bazaar (``bzr://``)
+
+- Mercurial (``hg://``)
+
+- OSC (``osc://``)
+
+- S3 (``s3://``)
+
+- Secure FTP (``sftp://``)
+
+- Secure Shell (``ssh://``)
+
+- Trees using Git Annex (``gitannex://``)
+
+No documentation currently exists for these lesser used fetcher
+submodules. However, you might find the code helpful and readable.
+
+Auto Revisions

-<title>File Download Support</title>
-
- <para>
- BitBake's fetch module is a standalone piece of library code
- that deals with the intricacies of downloading source code
- and files from remote systems.
- Fetching source code is one of the cornerstones of building software.
- As such, this module forms an important part of BitBake.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- The current fetch module is called "fetch2" and refers to the
- fact that it is the second major version of the API.
- The original version is obsolete and has been removed from the codebase.
- Thus, in all cases, "fetch" refers to "fetch2" in this
- manual.
- </para>
-
- <section id='the-download-fetch'>
- <title>The Download (Fetch)</title>
-
- <para>
- BitBake takes several steps when fetching source code or files.
- The fetcher codebase deals with two distinct processes in order:
- obtaining the files from somewhere (cached or otherwise)
- and then unpacking those files into a specific location and
- perhaps in a specific way.
- Getting and unpacking the files is often optionally followed
- by patching.
- Patching, however, is not covered by this module.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- The code to execute the first part of this process, a fetch,
- looks something like the following:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- src_uri = (d.getVar('SRC_URI') or "").split()
- fetcher = bb.fetch2.Fetch(src_uri, d)
- fetcher.download()
- </literallayout>
- This code sets up an instance of the fetch class.
- The instance uses a space-separated list of URLs from the
- <link linkend='var-bb-SRC_URI'><filename>SRC_URI</filename></link>
- variable and then calls the <filename>download</filename>
- method to download the files.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- The instantiation of the fetch class is usually followed by:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- rootdir = l.getVar('WORKDIR')
- fetcher.unpack(rootdir)
- </literallayout>
- This code unpacks the downloaded files to the
- specified by <filename>WORKDIR</filename>.
- <note>
- For convenience, the naming in these examples matches
- the variables used by OpenEmbedded.
- If you want to see the above code in action, examine
- the OpenEmbedded class file <filename>base.bbclass</filename>.
- </note>
- The <filename>SRC_URI</filename> and <filename>WORKDIR</filename>
- variables are not hardcoded into the fetcher, since those fetcher
- methods can be (and are) called with different variable names.
- In OpenEmbedded for example, the shared state (sstate) code uses
- the fetch module to fetch the sstate files.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- When the <filename>download()</filename> method is called,
- BitBake tries to resolve the URLs by looking for source files
- in a specific search order:
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem><para><emphasis>Pre-mirror Sites:</emphasis>
- BitBake first uses pre-mirrors to try and find source files.
- These locations are defined using the
- <link linkend='var-bb-PREMIRRORS'><filename>PREMIRRORS</filename></link>
- variable.
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para><emphasis>Source URI:</emphasis>
- If pre-mirrors fail, BitBake uses the original URL (e.g from
- <filename>SRC_URI</filename>).
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para><emphasis>Mirror Sites:</emphasis>
- If fetch failures occur, BitBake next uses mirror locations as
- defined by the
- <link linkend='var-bb-MIRRORS'><filename>MIRRORS</filename></link>
- variable.
- </para></listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- </para>
-
- <para>
- For each URL passed to the fetcher, the fetcher
- calls the submodule that handles that particular URL type.
- This behavior can be the source of some confusion when you
- are providing URLs for the <filename>SRC_URI</filename>
- variable.
- Consider the following two URLs:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- http://git.yoctoproject.org/git/poky;protocol=git
- git://git.yoctoproject.org/git/poky;protocol=http
- </literallayout>
- In the former case, the URL is passed to the
- <filename>wget</filename> fetcher, which does not
- understand "git".
- Therefore, the latter case is the correct form since the
- Git fetcher does know how to use HTTP as a transport.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Here are some examples that show commonly used mirror
- definitions:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- PREMIRRORS ?= "\
- bzr://.*/.* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \n \
- cvs://.*/.* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \n \
- git://.*/.* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \n \
- hg://.*/.* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \n \
- osc://.*/.* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \n \
- p4://.*/.* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \n \
- svn://.*/.* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \n"
-
- MIRRORS =+ "\
- ftp://.*/.* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \n \
- http://.*/.* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \n \
- https://.*/.* http://somemirror.org/sources/ \n"
- </literallayout>
- It is useful to note that BitBake supports
- cross-URLs.
- It is possible to mirror a Git repository on an HTTP
- server as a tarball.
- This is what the <filename>git://</filename> mapping in
- the previous example does.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Since network accesses are slow, Bitbake maintains a
- cache of files downloaded from the network.
- Any source files that are not local (i.e.
- downloaded from the Internet) are placed into the download
- directory, which is specified by the
- <link linkend='var-bb-DL_DIR'><filename>DL_DIR</filename></link>
- variable.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- File integrity is of key importance for reproducing builds.
- For non-local archive downloads, the fetcher code can verify
- SHA-256 and MD5 checksums to ensure the archives have been
- downloaded correctly.
- You can specify these checksums by using the
- <filename>SRC_URI</filename> variable with the appropriate
- varflags as follows:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- SRC_URI[md5sum] = "<replaceable>value</replaceable>"
- SRC_URI[sha256sum] = "<replaceable>value</replaceable>"
- </literallayout>
- You can also specify the checksums as parameters on the
- <filename>SRC_URI</filename> as shown below:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- SRC_URI = "http://example.com/foobar.tar.bz2;md5sum=4a8e0f237e961fd7785d19d07fdb994d"
- </literallayout>
- If multiple URIs exist, you can specify the checksums either
- directly as in the previous example, or you can name the URLs.
- The following syntax shows how you name the URIs:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- SRC_URI = "http://example.com/foobar.tar.bz2;name=foo"
- SRC_URI[foo.md5sum] = 4a8e0f237e961fd7785d19d07fdb994d
- </literallayout>
- After a file has been downloaded and has had its checksum checked,
- a ".done" stamp is placed in <filename>DL_DIR</filename>.
- BitBake uses this stamp during subsequent builds to avoid
- downloading or comparing a checksum for the file again.
- <note>
- It is assumed that local storage is safe from data corruption.
- If this were not the case, there would be bigger issues to worry about.
- </note>
- </para>
-
- <para>
- If
- <link linkend='var-bb-BB_STRICT_CHECKSUM'><filename>BB_STRICT_CHECKSUM</filename></link>
- is set, any download without a checksum triggers an
- error message.
- The
- <link linkend='var-bb-BB_NO_NETWORK'><filename>BB_NO_NETWORK</filename></link>
- variable can be used to make any attempted network access a fatal
- error, which is useful for checking that mirrors are complete
- as well as other things.
- </para>
- </section>
-
- <section id='bb-the-unpack'>
- <title>The Unpack</title>
-
- <para>
- The unpack process usually immediately follows the download.
- For all URLs except Git URLs, BitBake uses the common
- <filename>unpack</filename> method.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- A number of parameters exist that you can specify within the
- URL to govern the behavior of the unpack stage:
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem><para><emphasis>unpack:</emphasis>
- Controls whether the URL components are unpacked.
- If set to "1", which is the default, the components
- are unpacked.
- If set to "0", the unpack stage leaves the file alone.
- This parameter is useful when you want an archive to be
- copied in and not be unpacked.
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para><emphasis>dos:</emphasis>
- Applies to <filename>.zip</filename> and
- <filename>.jar</filename> files and specifies whether to
- use DOS line ending conversion on text files.
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para><emphasis>basepath:</emphasis>
- Instructs the unpack stage to strip the specified
- directories from the source path when unpacking.
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para><emphasis>subdir:</emphasis>
- Unpacks the specific URL to the specified subdirectory
- within the root directory.
- </para></listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- The unpack call automatically decompresses and extracts files
- with ".Z", ".z", ".gz", ".xz", ".zip", ".jar", ".ipk", ".rpm".
- ".srpm", ".deb" and ".bz2" extensions as well as various combinations
- of tarball extensions.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- As mentioned, the Git fetcher has its own unpack method that
- is optimized to work with Git trees.
- Basically, this method works by cloning the tree into the final
- directory.
- The process is completed using references so that there is
- only one central copy of the Git metadata needed.
- </para>
- </section>
-
- <section id='bb-fetchers'>
- <title>Fetchers</title>
-
- <para>
- As mentioned earlier, the URL prefix determines which
- fetcher submodule BitBake uses.
- Each submodule can support different URL parameters,
- which are described in the following sections.
- </para>
-
- <section id='local-file-fetcher'>
- <title>Local file fetcher (<filename>file://</filename>)</title>
-
- <para>
- This submodule handles URLs that begin with
- <filename>file://</filename>.
- The filename you specify within the URL can be
- either an absolute or relative path to a file.
- If the filename is relative, the contents of the
- <link linkend='var-bb-FILESPATH'><filename>FILESPATH</filename></link>
- variable is used in the same way
- <filename>PATH</filename> is used to find executables.
- If the file cannot be found, it is assumed that it is available in
- <link linkend='var-bb-DL_DIR'><filename>DL_DIR</filename></link>
- by the time the <filename>download()</filename> method is called.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- If you specify a directory, the entire directory is
- unpacked.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Here are a couple of example URLs, the first relative and
- the second absolute:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- SRC_URI = "file://relativefile.patch"
- SRC_URI = "file:///Users/ich/very_important_software"
- </literallayout>
- </para>
- </section>
-
- <section id='http-ftp-fetcher'>
- <title>HTTP/FTP wget fetcher (<filename>http://</filename>, <filename>ftp://</filename>, <filename>https://</filename>)</title>
-
- <para>
- This fetcher obtains files from web and FTP servers.
- Internally, the fetcher uses the wget utility.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- The executable and parameters used are specified by the
- <filename>FETCHCMD_wget</filename> variable, which defaults
- to sensible values.
- The fetcher supports a parameter "downloadfilename" that
- allows the name of the downloaded file to be specified.
- Specifying the name of the downloaded file is useful
- for avoiding collisions in
- <link linkend='var-bb-DL_DIR'><filename>DL_DIR</filename></link>
- when dealing with multiple files that have the same name.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Some example URLs are as follows:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- SRC_URI = "http://oe.handhelds.org/not_there.aac"
- SRC_URI = "ftp://oe.handhelds.org/not_there_as_well.aac"
- SRC_URI = "ftp://you@oe.handhelds.org/home/you/secret.plan"
- </literallayout>
- </para>
- <note>
- Because URL parameters are delimited by semi-colons, this can
- introduce ambiguity when parsing URLs that also contain semi-colons,
- for example:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- SRC_URI = "http://abc123.org/git/?p=gcc/gcc.git;a=snapshot;h=a5dd47"
- </literallayout>
- Such URLs should should be modified by replacing semi-colons with '&amp;' characters:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- SRC_URI = "http://abc123.org/git/?p=gcc/gcc.git&amp;a=snapshot&amp;h=a5dd47"
- </literallayout>
- In most cases this should work. Treating semi-colons and '&amp;' in queries
- identically is recommended by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).
- Note that due to the nature of the URL, you may have to specify the name
- of the downloaded file as well:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- SRC_URI = "http://abc123.org/git/?p=gcc/gcc.git&amp;a=snapshot&amp;h=a5dd47;downloadfilename=myfile.bz2"

- <link linkend='var-bb-GITDIR'><filename>GITDIR</filename></link>,
- which is usually <filename>DL_DIR/git2</filename>.
- This bare clone is then cloned into the work directory during the

- <listitem><para><emphasis>"rebaseable":</emphasis>
- Indicates that the upstream Git repository can be rebased.
- You should set this parameter to "1" if

+Hello World Example
+===================
+
+BitBake Hello World
+===================
+
+The simplest example commonly used to demonstrate any new programming
+language or tool is the "`Hello
+World <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hello_world_program>`__" example.
+This appendix demonstrates, in tutorial form, Hello World within the
+context of BitBake. The tutorial describes how to create a new project
+and the applicable metadata files necessary to allow BitBake to build
+it.
+
+Obtaining BitBake
+=================
+
+See the :ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-intro:obtaining bitbake` section for
+information on how to obtain BitBake. Once you have the source code on
+your machine, the BitBake directory appears as follows::

+
+At this point, you should have BitBake cloned to a directory that
+matches the previous listing except for dates and user names.
+
+Setting Up the BitBake Environment
+==================================
+
+First, you need to be sure that you can run BitBake. Set your working
+directory to where your local BitBake files are and run the following
+command::
+
+ $ ./bin/bitbake --version
+ BitBake Build Tool Core version 2.3.1
+
+The console output tells you what version
+you are running.
+
+The recommended method to run BitBake is from a directory of your
+choice. To be able to run BitBake from any directory, you need to add
+the executable binary to your binary to your shell's environment
+``PATH`` variable. First, look at your current ``PATH`` variable by
+entering the following::
+
+ $ echo $PATH
+
+Next, add the directory location
+for the BitBake binary to the ``PATH``. Here is an example that adds the
+``/home/scott-lenovo/bitbake/bin`` directory to the front of the
+``PATH`` variable::
+
+ $ export PATH=/home/scott-lenovo/bitbake/bin:$PATH
+
+You should now be able to enter the ``bitbake`` command from the command
+line while working from any directory.
+
+The Hello World Example
+=======================
+
+The overall goal of this exercise is to build a complete "Hello World"
+example utilizing task and layer concepts. Because this is how modern
+projects such as OpenEmbedded and the Yocto Project utilize BitBake, the
+example provides an excellent starting point for understanding BitBake.
+
+To help you understand how to use BitBake to build targets, the example
+starts with nothing but the ``bitbake`` command, which causes BitBake to
+fail and report problems. The example progresses by adding pieces to the
+build to eventually conclude with a working, minimal "Hello World"
+example.
+
+While every attempt is made to explain what is happening during the
+example, the descriptions cannot cover everything. You can find further
+information throughout this manual. Also, you can actively participate
+in the :oe_lists:`/g/bitbake-devel`
+discussion mailing list about the BitBake build tool.
+
+.. note::
+
+ This example was inspired by and drew heavily from
+ `Mailing List post - The BitBake equivalent of "Hello, World!"
+ <https://www.mail-archive.com/yocto@yoctoproject.org/msg09379.html>`_.
+
+As stated earlier, the goal of this example is to eventually compile
+"Hello World". However, it is unknown what BitBake needs and what you
+have to provide in order to achieve that goal. Recall that BitBake
+utilizes three types of metadata files:
+:ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-intro:configuration files`,
+:ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-intro:classes`, and
+:ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-intro:recipes`.
+But where do they go? How does BitBake find
+them? BitBake's error messaging helps you answer these types of
+questions and helps you better understand exactly what is going on.
+
+Following is the complete "Hello World" example.
+
+#. **Create a Project Directory:** First, set up a directory for the
+ "Hello World" project. Here is how you can do so in your home
+ directory::
+
+ $ mkdir ~/hello
+ $ cd ~/hello
+
+ This is the directory that
+ BitBake will use to do all of its work. You can use this directory
+ to keep all the metafiles needed by BitBake. Having a project
+ directory is a good way to isolate your project.
+
+#. **Run BitBake:** At this point, you have nothing but a project
+ directory. Run the ``bitbake`` command and see what it does::
+
+ $ bitbake
+ ERROR: The BBPATH variable is not set and bitbake did not find a conf/bblayers.conf file in the expected location.
+ Maybe you accidentally invoked bitbake from the wrong directory?
+
+ When you run BitBake, it begins looking for metadata files. The
+ :term:`BBPATH` variable is what tells BitBake where
+ to look for those files. :term:`BBPATH` is not set and you need to set
+ it. Without :term:`BBPATH`, BitBake cannot find any configuration files
+ (``.conf``) or recipe files (``.bb``) at all. BitBake also cannot
+ find the ``bitbake.conf`` file.
+
+#. **Setting BBPATH:** For this example, you can set :term:`BBPATH` in
+ the same manner that you set ``PATH`` earlier in the appendix. You
+ should realize, though, that it is much more flexible to set the
+ :term:`BBPATH` variable up in a configuration file for each project.
+
+ From your shell, enter the following commands to set and export the
+ :term:`BBPATH` variable::
+
+ $ BBPATH="projectdirectory"
+ $ export BBPATH
+
+ Use your actual project directory in the command. BitBake uses that
+ directory to find the metadata it needs for your project.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ When specifying your project directory, do not use the tilde
+ ("~") character as BitBake does not expand that character as the
+ shell would.
+
+#. **Run BitBake:** Now that you have :term:`BBPATH` defined, run the
+ ``bitbake`` command again::
+
+ $ bitbake
+ ERROR: Unable to parse /home/scott-lenovo/bitbake/lib/bb/parse/__init__.py
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "/home/scott-lenovo/bitbake/lib/bb/parse/__init__.py", line 127, in resolve_file(fn='conf/bitbake.conf', d=<bb.data_smart.DataSmart object at 0x7f22919a3df0>):
+ if not newfn:
+ > raise IOError(errno.ENOENT, "file %s not found in %s" % (fn, bbpath))
+ fn = newfn
+ FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] file conf/bitbake.conf not found in <projectdirectory>
+
+
+ This sample output shows that BitBake could not find the
+ ``conf/bitbake.conf`` file in the project directory. This file is
+ the first thing BitBake must find in order to build a target. And,
+ since the project directory for this example is empty, you need to
+ provide a ``conf/bitbake.conf`` file.
+
+#. **Creating conf/bitbake.conf:** The ``conf/bitbake.conf`` includes
+ a number of configuration variables BitBake uses for metadata and
+ recipe files. For this example, you need to create the file in your
+ project directory and define some key BitBake variables. For more
+ information on the ``bitbake.conf`` file, see
+ https://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/tree/conf/bitbake.conf.
+
+ Use the following commands to create the ``conf`` directory in the
+ project directory::
+
+ $ mkdir conf
+
+ From within the ``conf`` directory,
+ use some editor to create the ``bitbake.conf`` so that it contains
+ the following::
+
+ PN = "${@bb.parse.vars_from_file(d.getVar('FILE', False),d)[0] or 'defaultpkgname'}"
+
+ TMPDIR = "${TOPDIR}/tmp"
+ CACHE = "${TMPDIR}/cache"
+ STAMP = "${TMPDIR}/${PN}/stamps"
+ T = "${TMPDIR}/${PN}/work"
+ B = "${TMPDIR}/${PN}"
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Without a value for :term:`PN`, the variables :term:`STAMP`, :term:`T`, and :term:`B`, prevent more
+ than one recipe from working. You can fix this by either setting :term:`PN` to
+ have a value similar to what OpenEmbedded and BitBake use in the default
+ ``bitbake.conf`` file (see previous example). Or, by manually updating each
+ recipe to set :term:`PN`. You will also need to include :term:`PN` as part of the :term:`STAMP`,
+ :term:`T`, and :term:`B` variable definitions in the ``local.conf`` file.
+
+ The ``TMPDIR`` variable establishes a directory that BitBake uses
+ for build output and intermediate files other than the cached
+ information used by the
+ :ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-execution:setscene`
+ process. Here, the ``TMPDIR`` directory is set to ``hello/tmp``.
+
+ .. tip::
+
+ You can always safely delete the tmp directory in order to rebuild a
+ BitBake target. The build process creates the directory for you when you
+ run BitBake.
+
+ For information about each of the other variables defined in this
+ example, check :term:`PN`, :term:`TOPDIR`, :term:`CACHE`, :term:`STAMP`,
+ :term:`T` or :term:`B` to take you to the definitions in the
+ glossary.
+
+#. **Run BitBake:** After making sure that the ``conf/bitbake.conf`` file
+ exists, you can run the ``bitbake`` command again::
+
+ $ bitbake
+ ERROR: Unable to parse /home/scott-lenovo/bitbake/lib/bb/parse/parse_py/BBHandler.py
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "/home/scott-lenovo/bitbake/lib/bb/parse/parse_py/BBHandler.py", line 67, in inherit(files=['base'], fn='configuration INHERITs', lineno=0, d=<bb.data_smart.DataSmart object at 0x7fab6815edf0>):
+ if not os.path.exists(file):
+ > raise ParseError("Could not inherit file %s" % (file), fn, lineno)
+
+ bb.parse.ParseError: ParseError in configuration INHERITs: Could not inherit file classes/base.bbclass
+
+
+ In the sample output,
+ BitBake could not find the ``classes/base.bbclass`` file. You need
+ to create that file next.
+
+#. **Creating classes/base.bbclass:** BitBake uses class files to
+ provide common code and functionality. The minimally required class
+ for BitBake is the ``classes/base.bbclass`` file. The ``base`` class
+ is implicitly inherited by every recipe. BitBake looks for the class
+ in the ``classes`` directory of the project (i.e ``hello/classes``
+ in this example).
+
+ Create the ``classes`` directory as follows::
+
+ $ cd $HOME/hello
+ $ mkdir classes
+
+ Move to the ``classes`` directory and then create the
+ ``base.bbclass`` file by inserting this single line::
+
+ addtask build
+
+ The minimal task that BitBake runs is the ``do_build`` task. This is
+ all the example needs in order to build the project. Of course, the
+ ``base.bbclass`` can have much more depending on which build
+ environments BitBake is supporting.
+
+#. **Run BitBake:** After making sure that the ``classes/base.bbclass``
+ file exists, you can run the ``bitbake`` command again::
+
+ $ bitbake
+ Nothing to do. Use 'bitbake world' to build everything, or run 'bitbake --help' for usage information.
+
+ BitBake is finally reporting
+ no errors. However, you can see that it really does not have
+ anything to do. You need to create a recipe that gives BitBake
+ something to do.
+
+#. **Creating a Layer:** While it is not really necessary for such a
+ small example, it is good practice to create a layer in which to
+ keep your code separate from the general metadata used by BitBake.
+ Thus, this example creates and uses a layer called "mylayer".
+
+ .. note::
+
+ You can find additional information on layers in the
+ ":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-intro:Layers`" section.
+
+ Minimally, you need a recipe file and a layer configuration file in
+ your layer. The configuration file needs to be in the ``conf``
+ directory inside the layer. Use these commands to set up the layer
+ and the ``conf`` directory::
+
+ $ cd $HOME
+ $ mkdir mylayer
+ $ cd mylayer
+ $ mkdir conf
+
+ Move to the ``conf`` directory and create a ``layer.conf`` file that has the
+ following::
+
+ BBPATH .= ":${LAYERDIR}"
+ BBFILES += "${LAYERDIR}/*.bb"
+ BBFILE_COLLECTIONS += "mylayer"
+ BBFILE_PATTERN_mylayer := "^${LAYERDIR_RE}/"
+ LAYERSERIES_CORENAMES = "hello_world_example"
+ LAYERSERIES_COMPAT_mylayer = "hello_world_example"
+
+ For information on these variables, click on :term:`BBFILES`,
+ :term:`LAYERDIR`, :term:`BBFILE_COLLECTIONS`, :term:`BBFILE_PATTERN_mylayer <BBFILE_PATTERN>`
+ or :term:`LAYERSERIES_COMPAT` to go to the definitions in the glossary.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ We are setting both ``LAYERSERIES_CORENAMES`` and :term:`LAYERSERIES_COMPAT` in this particular case, because we
+ are using bitbake without OpenEmbedded.
+ You should usually just use :term:`LAYERSERIES_COMPAT` to specify the OE-Core versions for which your layer
+ is compatible, and add the meta-openembedded layer to your project.
+
+ You need to create the recipe file next. Inside your layer at the
+ top-level, use an editor and create a recipe file named
+ ``printhello.bb`` that has the following::
+
+ DESCRIPTION = "Prints Hello World"
+ PN = 'printhello'
+ PV = '1'
+
+ python do_build() {
+ bb.plain("********************");
+ bb.plain("* *");
+ bb.plain("* Hello, World! *");
+ bb.plain("* *");
+ bb.plain("********************");
+ }
+
+ The recipe file simply provides
+ a description of the recipe, the name, version, and the ``do_build``
+ task, which prints out "Hello World" to the console. For more
+ information on :term:`DESCRIPTION`, :term:`PN` or :term:`PV`
+ follow the links to the glossary.
+
+#. **Run BitBake With a Target:** Now that a BitBake target exists, run
+ the command and provide that target::
+
+ $ cd $HOME/hello
+ $ bitbake printhello
+ ERROR: no recipe files to build, check your BBPATH and BBFILES?
+
+ Summary: There was 1 ERROR message shown, returning a non-zero exit code.
+
+ We have created the layer with the recipe and
+ the layer configuration file but it still seems that BitBake cannot
+ find the recipe. BitBake needs a ``conf/bblayers.conf`` that lists
+ the layers for the project. Without this file, BitBake cannot find
+ the recipe.
+
+#. **Creating conf/bblayers.conf:** BitBake uses the
+ ``conf/bblayers.conf`` file to locate layers needed for the project.
+ This file must reside in the ``conf`` directory of the project (i.e.
+ ``hello/conf`` for this example).
+
+ Set your working directory to the ``hello/conf`` directory and then
+ create the ``bblayers.conf`` file so that it contains the following::
+
+ BBLAYERS ?= " \
+ /home/<you>/mylayer \
+ "
+
+ You need to provide your own information for ``you`` in the file.
+
+#. **Run BitBake With a Target:** Now that you have supplied the
+ ``bblayers.conf`` file, run the ``bitbake`` command and provide the
+ target::
+
+ $ bitbake printhello
+ Loading cache: 100% |
+ Loaded 0 entries from dependency cache.

+ ********************

+ * Hello, World! *
+ * *
+ ********************
+ NOTE: Tasks Summary: Attempted 1 tasks of which 0 didn't need to be rerun and all succeeded.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ After the first execution, re-running bitbake printhello again will not
+ result in a BitBake run that prints the same console output. The reason
+ for this is that the first time the printhello.bb recipe's do_build task
+ executes successfully, BitBake writes a stamp file for the task. Thus,
+ the next time you attempt to run the task using that same bitbake
+ command, BitBake notices the stamp and therefore determines that the task
+ does not need to be re-run. If you delete the tmp directory or run
+ bitbake -c clean printhello and then re-run the build, the "Hello,
+ World!" message will be printed again.

- First, you need to be sure that you can run BitBake.
- Set your working directory to where your local BitBake
- files are and run the following command:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ ./bin/bitbake --version

- <filename>PATH</filename> variable.
- First, look at your current <filename>PATH</filename> variable
- by entering the following:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ echo $PATH
- </literallayout>
- Next, add the directory location for the BitBake binary to the

- <filename>classes/base.bbclass</filename> file.
- The <filename>base</filename> class is implicitly inherited by
- every recipe.
- BitBake looks for the class in the <filename>classes</filename>
- directory of the project (i.e <filename>hello/classes</filename>
- in this example).
- </para>
- <para>Create the <filename>classes</filename> directory as follows:

- create the <filename>base.bbclass</filename> file by inserting
- this single line:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- addtask build
- </literallayout>
- The minimal task that BitBake runs is the
- <filename>do_build</filename> task.
- This is all the example needs in order to build the project.

- bb.plain("* *");
- bb.plain("* Hello, World! *");
- bb.plain("* *");
- bb.plain("********************");

- </literallayout>
- The recipe file simply provides a description of the

+Overview
+========
+
+|
+
+Welcome to the BitBake User Manual. This manual provides information on
+the BitBake tool. The information attempts to be as independent as
+possible regarding systems that use BitBake, such as OpenEmbedded and
+the Yocto Project. In some cases, scenarios or examples within the
+context of a build system are used in the manual to help with
+understanding. For these cases, the manual clearly states the context.
+
+.. _intro:
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+Fundamentally, BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows
+shell and Python tasks to be run efficiently and in parallel while
+working within complex inter-task dependency constraints. One of
+BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded
+Linux software stacks using a task-oriented approach.
+
+Conceptually, BitBake is similar to GNU Make in some regards but has
+significant differences:
+
+- BitBake executes tasks according to the provided metadata that builds up
+ the tasks. Metadata is stored in recipe (``.bb``) and related recipe
+ "append" (``.bbappend``) files, configuration (``.conf``) and
+ underlying include (``.inc``) files, and in class (``.bbclass``)
+ files. The metadata provides BitBake with instructions on what tasks
+ to run and the dependencies between those tasks.
+
+- BitBake includes a fetcher library for obtaining source code from
+ various places such as local files, source control systems, or
+ websites.
+
+- The instructions for each unit to be built (e.g. a piece of software)
+ are known as "recipe" files and contain all the information about the
+ unit (dependencies, source file locations, checksums, description and
+ so on).
+
+- BitBake includes a client/server abstraction and can be used from a
+ command line or used as a service over XML-RPC and has several
+ different user interfaces.
+
+History and Goals
+=================
+
+BitBake was originally a part of the OpenEmbedded project. It was
+inspired by the Portage package management system used by the Gentoo
+Linux distribution. On December 7, 2004, OpenEmbedded project team
+member Chris Larson split the project into two distinct pieces:
+
+- BitBake, a generic task executor
+
+- OpenEmbedded, a metadata set utilized by BitBake
+
+Today, BitBake is the primary basis of the
+`OpenEmbedded <https://www.openembedded.org/>`__ project, which is being
+used to build and maintain Linux distributions such as the `Poky
+Reference Distribution <https://www.yoctoproject.org/software-item/poky/>`__,
+developed under the umbrella of the `Yocto Project <https://www.yoctoproject.org>`__.
+
+Prior to BitBake, no other build tool adequately met the needs of an
+aspiring embedded Linux distribution. All of the build systems used by
+traditional desktop Linux distributions lacked important functionality,
+and none of the ad hoc Buildroot-based systems, prevalent in the
+embedded space, were scalable or maintainable.
+
+Some important original goals for BitBake were:
+
+- Handle cross-compilation.
+
+- Handle inter-package dependencies (build time on target architecture,
+ build time on native architecture, and runtime).
+
+- Support running any number of tasks within a given package,
+ including, but not limited to, fetching upstream sources, unpacking
+ them, patching them, configuring them, and so forth.
+
+- Be Linux distribution agnostic for both build and target systems.
+
+- Be architecture agnostic.
+
+- Support multiple build and target operating systems (e.g. Cygwin, the
+ BSDs, and so forth).
+
+- Be self-contained, rather than tightly integrated into the build
+ machine's root filesystem.
+
+- Handle conditional metadata on the target architecture, operating
+ system, distribution, and machine.
+
+- Be easy to use the tools to supply local metadata and packages
+ against which to operate.
+
+- Be easy to use BitBake to collaborate between multiple projects for
+ their builds.
+
+- Provide an inheritance mechanism to share common metadata between
+ many packages.
+
+Over time it became apparent that some further requirements were
+necessary:
+
+- Handle variants of a base recipe (e.g. native, sdk, and multilib).
+
+- Split metadata into layers and allow layers to enhance or override
+ other layers.
+
+- Allow representation of a given set of input variables to a task as a
+ checksum. Based on that checksum, allow acceleration of builds with
+ prebuilt components.
+
+BitBake satisfies all the original requirements and many more with
+extensions being made to the basic functionality to reflect the
+additional requirements. Flexibility and power have always been the
+priorities. BitBake is highly extensible and supports embedded Python
+code and execution of any arbitrary tasks.
+
+.. _Concepts:
+
+Concepts
+========
+
+BitBake is a program written in the Python language. At the highest
+level, BitBake interprets metadata, decides what tasks are required to
+run, and executes those tasks. Similar to GNU Make, BitBake controls how
+software is built. GNU Make achieves its control through "makefiles",
+while BitBake uses "recipes".
+
+BitBake extends the capabilities of a simple tool like GNU Make by
+allowing for the definition of much more complex tasks, such as
+assembling entire embedded Linux distributions.
+
+The remainder of this section introduces several concepts that should be
+understood in order to better leverage the power of BitBake.
+
+Recipes
+-------
+
+BitBake Recipes, which are denoted by the file extension ``.bb``, are
+the most basic metadata files. These recipe files provide BitBake with
+the following:
+
+- Descriptive information about the package (author, homepage, license,
+ and so on)
+
+- The version of the recipe
+
+- Existing dependencies (both build and runtime dependencies)
+
+- Where the source code resides and how to fetch it
+
+- Whether the source code requires any patches, where to find them, and
+ how to apply them
+
+- How to configure and compile the source code
+
+- How to assemble the generated artifacts into one or more installable
+ packages
+
+- Where on the target machine to install the package or packages
+ created
+
+Within the context of BitBake, or any project utilizing BitBake as its
+build system, files with the ``.bb`` extension are referred to as
+recipes.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The term "package" is also commonly used to describe recipes.
+ However, since the same word is used to describe packaged output from
+ a project, it is best to maintain a single descriptive term -
+ "recipes". Put another way, a single "recipe" file is quite capable
+ of generating a number of related but separately installable
+ "packages". In fact, that ability is fairly common.
+
+Configuration Files
+-------------------
+
+Configuration files, which are denoted by the ``.conf`` extension,
+define various configuration variables that govern the project's build
+process. These files fall into several areas that define machine
+configuration, distribution configuration, possible compiler tuning,
+general common configuration, and user configuration. The main
+configuration file is the sample ``bitbake.conf`` file, which is located
+within the BitBake source tree ``conf`` directory.
+
+Classes
+-------
+
+Class files, which are denoted by the ``.bbclass`` extension, contain
+information that is useful to share between metadata files. The BitBake
+source tree currently comes with one class metadata file called
+``base.bbclass``. You can find this file in the ``classes`` directory.
+The ``base.bbclass`` class files is special since it is always included
+automatically for all recipes and classes. This class contains
+definitions for standard basic tasks such as fetching, unpacking,
+configuring (empty by default), compiling (runs any Makefile present),
+installing (empty by default) and packaging (empty by default). These
+tasks are often overridden or extended by other classes added during the
+project development process.
+
+Layers
+------
+
+Layers allow you to isolate different types of customizations from each
+other. While you might find it tempting to keep everything in one layer
+when working on a single project, the more modular your metadata, the
+easier it is to cope with future changes.
+
+To illustrate how you can use layers to keep things modular, consider
+customizations you might make to support a specific target machine.
+These types of customizations typically reside in a special layer,
+rather than a general layer, called a Board Support Package (BSP) layer.
+Furthermore, the machine customizations should be isolated from recipes
+and metadata that support a new GUI environment, for example. This
+situation gives you a couple of layers: one for the machine
+configurations and one for the GUI environment. It is important to
+understand, however, that the BSP layer can still make machine-specific
+additions to recipes within the GUI environment layer without polluting
+the GUI layer itself with those machine-specific changes. You can
+accomplish this through a recipe that is a BitBake append
+(``.bbappend``) file.
+
+.. _append-bbappend-files:
+
+Append Files
+------------
+
+Append files, which are files that have the ``.bbappend`` file
+extension, extend or override information in an existing recipe file.
+
+BitBake expects every append file to have a corresponding recipe file.
+Furthermore, the append file and corresponding recipe file must use the
+same root filename. The filenames can differ only in the file type
+suffix used (e.g. ``formfactor_0.0.bb`` and
+``formfactor_0.0.bbappend``).
+
+Information in append files extends or overrides the information in the
+underlying, similarly-named recipe files.
+
+When you name an append file, you can use the "``%``" wildcard character
+to allow for matching recipe names. For example, suppose you have an
+append file named as follows::
+
+ busybox_1.21.%.bbappend
+
+That append file
+would match any ``busybox_1.21.``\ x\ ``.bb`` version of the recipe. So,
+the append file would match the following recipe names::
+
+ busybox_1.21.1.bb
+ busybox_1.21.2.bb
+ busybox_1.21.3.bb
+
+.. note::
+
+ The use of the " % " character is limited in that it only works directly in
+ front of the .bbappend portion of the append file's name. You cannot use the
+ wildcard character in any other location of the name.
+
+If the ``busybox`` recipe was updated to ``busybox_1.3.0.bb``, the
+append name would not match. However, if you named the append file
+``busybox_1.%.bbappend``, then you would have a match.
+
+In the most general case, you could name the append file something as
+simple as ``busybox_%.bbappend`` to be entirely version independent.
+
+Obtaining BitBake
+=================
+
+You can obtain BitBake several different ways:
+
+- **Cloning BitBake:** Using Git to clone the BitBake source code
+ repository is the recommended method for obtaining BitBake. Cloning
+ the repository makes it easy to get bug fixes and have access to
+ stable branches and the master branch. Once you have cloned BitBake,
+ you should use the latest stable branch for development since the
+ master branch is for BitBake development and might contain less
+ stable changes.
+
+ You usually need a version of BitBake that matches the metadata you
+ are using. The metadata is generally backwards compatible but not
+ forward compatible.
+
+ Here is an example that clones the BitBake repository::
+
+ $ git clone git://git.openembedded.org/bitbake
+
+ This command clones the BitBake
+ Git repository into a directory called ``bitbake``. Alternatively,
+ you can designate a directory after the ``git clone`` command if you
+ want to call the new directory something other than ``bitbake``. Here
+ is an example that names the directory ``bbdev``::
+
+ $ git clone git://git.openembedded.org/bitbake bbdev
+
+- **Installation using your Distribution Package Management System:**
+ This method is not recommended because the BitBake version that is
+ provided by your distribution, in most cases, is several releases
+ behind a snapshot of the BitBake repository.
+
+- **Taking a snapshot of BitBake:** Downloading a snapshot of BitBake
+ from the source code repository gives you access to a known branch or
+ release of BitBake.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Cloning the Git repository, as described earlier, is the preferred
+ method for getting BitBake. Cloning the repository makes it easier
+ to update as patches are added to the stable branches.
+
+ The following example downloads a snapshot of BitBake version 1.17.0::
+
+ $ wget https://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/snapshot/bitbake-1.17.0.tar.gz
+ $ tar zxpvf bitbake-1.17.0.tar.gz
+
+ After extraction of the tarball using
+ the tar utility, you have a directory entitled ``bitbake-1.17.0``.
+
+- **Using the BitBake that Comes With Your Build Checkout:** A final
+ possibility for getting a copy of BitBake is that it already comes
+ with your checkout of a larger BitBake-based build system, such as
+ Poky. Rather than manually checking out individual layers and gluing
+ them together yourself, you can check out an entire build system. The
+ checkout will already include a version of BitBake that has been
+ thoroughly tested for compatibility with the other components. For
+ information on how to check out a particular BitBake-based build
+ system, consult that build system's supporting documentation.
+
+.. _bitbake-user-manual-command:
+
+The BitBake Command
+===================
+
+The ``bitbake`` command is the primary interface to the BitBake tool.
+This section presents the BitBake command syntax and provides several
+execution examples.
+
+Usage and syntax
+----------------
+
+Following is the usage and syntax for BitBake::
+
+ $ bitbake -h
+ Usage: bitbake [options] [recipename/target recipe:do_task ...]
+
+ Executes the specified task (default is 'build') for a given set of target recipes (.bb files).
+ It is assumed there is a conf/bblayers.conf available in cwd or in BBPATH which
+ will provide the layer, BBFILES and other configuration information.
+
+ Options:
+ --version show program's version number and exit
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ -b BUILDFILE, --buildfile=BUILDFILE
+ Execute tasks from a specific .bb recipe directly.
+ WARNING: Does not handle any dependencies from other
+ recipes.
+ -k, --continue Continue as much as possible after an error. While the
+ target that failed and anything depending on it cannot
+ be built, as much as possible will be built before
+ stopping.
+ -f, --force Force the specified targets/task to run (invalidating
+ any existing stamp file).
+ -c CMD, --cmd=CMD Specify the task to execute. The exact options
+ available depend on the metadata. Some examples might
+ be 'compile' or 'populate_sysroot' or 'listtasks' may
+ give a list of the tasks available.
+ -C INVALIDATE_STAMP, --clear-stamp=INVALIDATE_STAMP
+ Invalidate the stamp for the specified task such as
+ 'compile' and then run the default task for the
+ specified target(s).
+ -r PREFILE, --read=PREFILE
+ Read the specified file before bitbake.conf.
+ -R POSTFILE, --postread=POSTFILE
+ Read the specified file after bitbake.conf.
+ -v, --verbose Enable tracing of shell tasks (with 'set -x'). Also
+ print bb.note(...) messages to stdout (in addition to
+ writing them to ${T}/log.do_&lt;task&gt;).
+ -D, --debug Increase the debug level. You can specify this more
+ than once. -D sets the debug level to 1, where only
+ bb.debug(1, ...) messages are printed to stdout; -DD
+ sets the debug level to 2, where both bb.debug(1, ...)
+ and bb.debug(2, ...) messages are printed; etc.
+ Without -D, no debug messages are printed. Note that
+ -D only affects output to stdout. All debug messages
+ are written to ${T}/log.do_taskname, regardless of the
+ debug level.
+ -q, --quiet Output less log message data to the terminal. You can
+ specify this more than once.
+ -n, --dry-run Don't execute, just go through the motions.
+ -S SIGNATURE_HANDLER, --dump-signatures=SIGNATURE_HANDLER
+ Dump out the signature construction information, with
+ no task execution. The SIGNATURE_HANDLER parameter is
+ passed to the handler. Two common values are none and
+ printdiff but the handler may define more/less. none
+ means only dump the signature, printdiff means compare
+ the dumped signature with the cached one.
+ -p, --parse-only Quit after parsing the BB recipes.
+ -s, --show-versions Show current and preferred versions of all recipes.
+ -e, --environment Show the global or per-recipe environment complete
+ with information about where variables were
+ set/changed.
+ -g, --graphviz Save dependency tree information for the specified
+ targets in the dot syntax.
+ -I EXTRA_ASSUME_PROVIDED, --ignore-deps=EXTRA_ASSUME_PROVIDED
+ Assume these dependencies don't exist and are already
+ provided (equivalent to ASSUME_PROVIDED). Useful to
+ make dependency graphs more appealing
+ -l DEBUG_DOMAINS, --log-domains=DEBUG_DOMAINS
+ Show debug logging for the specified logging domains
+ -P, --profile Profile the command and save reports.
+ -u UI, --ui=UI The user interface to use (knotty, ncurses, taskexp or
+ teamcity - default knotty).
+ --token=XMLRPCTOKEN Specify the connection token to be used when
+ connecting to a remote server.
+ --revisions-changed Set the exit code depending on whether upstream
+ floating revisions have changed or not.
+ --server-only Run bitbake without a UI, only starting a server
+ (cooker) process.
+ -B BIND, --bind=BIND The name/address for the bitbake xmlrpc server to bind
+ to.
+ -T SERVER_TIMEOUT, --idle-timeout=SERVER_TIMEOUT
+ Set timeout to unload bitbake server due to
+ inactivity, set to -1 means no unload, default:
+ Environment variable BB_SERVER_TIMEOUT.
+ --no-setscene Do not run any setscene tasks. sstate will be ignored
+ and everything needed, built.
+ --skip-setscene Skip setscene tasks if they would be executed. Tasks
+ previously restored from sstate will be kept, unlike
+ --no-setscene
+ --setscene-only Only run setscene tasks, don't run any real tasks.
+ --remote-server=REMOTE_SERVER
+ Connect to the specified server.
+ -m, --kill-server Terminate any running bitbake server.
+ --observe-only Connect to a server as an observing-only client.
+ --status-only Check the status of the remote bitbake server.
+ -w WRITEEVENTLOG, --write-log=WRITEEVENTLOG
+ Writes the event log of the build to a bitbake event
+ json file. Use '' (empty string) to assign the name
+ automatically.
+ --runall=RUNALL Run the specified task for any recipe in the taskgraph
+ of the specified target (even if it wouldn't otherwise
+ have run).
+ --runonly=RUNONLY Run only the specified task within the taskgraph of
+ the specified targets (and any task dependencies those
+ tasks may have).
+
+.. _bitbake-examples:
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+This section presents some examples showing how to use BitBake.
+
+.. _example-executing-a-task-against-a-single-recipe:
+
+Executing a Task Against a Single Recipe
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Executing tasks for a single recipe file is relatively simple. You
+specify the file in question, and BitBake parses it and executes the
+specified task. If you do not specify a task, BitBake executes the
+default task, which is "build". BitBake obeys inter-task dependencies
+when doing so.
+
+The following command runs the build task, which is the default task, on
+the ``foo_1.0.bb`` recipe file::
+
+ $ bitbake -b foo_1.0.bb
+
+The following command runs the clean task on the ``foo.bb`` recipe file::
+
+ $ bitbake -b foo.bb -c clean
+
+.. note::
+
+ The "-b" option explicitly does not handle recipe dependencies. Other
+ than for debugging purposes, it is instead recommended that you use
+ the syntax presented in the next section.
+
+Executing Tasks Against a Set of Recipe Files
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+There are a number of additional complexities introduced when one wants
+to manage multiple ``.bb`` files. Clearly there needs to be a way to
+tell BitBake what files are available and, of those, which you want to
+execute. There also needs to be a way for each recipe to express its
+dependencies, both for build-time and runtime. There must be a way for
+you to express recipe preferences when multiple recipes provide the same
+functionality, or when there are multiple versions of a recipe.
+
+The ``bitbake`` command, when not using "--buildfile" or "-b" only
+accepts a "PROVIDES". You cannot provide anything else. By default, a
+recipe file generally "PROVIDES" its "packagename" as shown in the
+following example::
+
+ $ bitbake foo
+
+This next example "PROVIDES" the
+package name and also uses the "-c" option to tell BitBake to just
+execute the ``do_clean`` task::
+
+ $ bitbake -c clean foo
+
+Executing a List of Task and Recipe Combinations
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The BitBake command line supports specifying different tasks for
+individual targets when you specify multiple targets. For example,
+suppose you had two targets (or recipes) ``myfirstrecipe`` and
+``mysecondrecipe`` and you needed BitBake to run ``taskA`` for the first
+recipe and ``taskB`` for the second recipe::
+
+ $ bitbake myfirstrecipe:do_taskA mysecondrecipe:do_taskB
+
+Generating Dependency Graphs
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+BitBake is able to generate dependency graphs using the ``dot`` syntax.
+You can convert these graphs into images using the ``dot`` tool from
+`Graphviz <http://www.graphviz.org>`__.
+
+When you generate a dependency graph, BitBake writes two files to the
+current working directory:
+
+- ``task-depends.dot``: Shows dependencies between tasks. These
+ dependencies match BitBake's internal task execution list.
+
+- ``pn-buildlist``: Shows a simple list of targets that are to be
+ built.
+
+To stop depending on common depends, use the ``-I`` depend option and
+BitBake omits them from the graph. Leaving this information out can
+produce more readable graphs. This way, you can remove from the graph
+:term:`DEPENDS` from inherited classes such as ``base.bbclass``.
+
+Here are two examples that create dependency graphs. The second example
+omits depends common in OpenEmbedded from the graph::
+
+ $ bitbake -g foo
+
+ $ bitbake -g -I virtual/kernel -I eglibc foo
+
+Executing a Multiple Configuration Build
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+BitBake is able to build multiple images or packages using a single
+command where the different targets require different configurations
+(multiple configuration builds). Each target, in this scenario, is
+referred to as a "multiconfig".
+
+To accomplish a multiple configuration build, you must define each
+target's configuration separately using a parallel configuration file in
+the build directory. The location for these multiconfig configuration
+files is specific. They must reside in the current build directory in a
+sub-directory of ``conf`` named ``multiconfig``. Following is an example
+for two separate targets:
+
+.. image:: figures/bb_multiconfig_files.png
+ :align: center
+
+The reason for this required file hierarchy is because the :term:`BBPATH`
+variable is not constructed until the layers are parsed. Consequently,
+using the configuration file as a pre-configuration file is not possible
+unless it is located in the current working directory.
+
+Minimally, each configuration file must define the machine and the
+temporary directory BitBake uses for the build. Suggested practice
+dictates that you do not overlap the temporary directories used during
+the builds.
+
+Aside from separate configuration files for each target, you must also
+enable BitBake to perform multiple configuration builds. Enabling is
+accomplished by setting the
+:term:`BBMULTICONFIG` variable in the
+``local.conf`` configuration file. As an example, suppose you had
+configuration files for ``target1`` and ``target2`` defined in the build
+directory. The following statement in the ``local.conf`` file both
+enables BitBake to perform multiple configuration builds and specifies
+the two extra multiconfigs::
+
+ BBMULTICONFIG = "target1 target2"
+
+Once the target configuration files are in place and BitBake has been
+enabled to perform multiple configuration builds, use the following
+command form to start the builds::
+
+ $ bitbake [mc:multiconfigname:]target [[[mc:multiconfigname:]target] ... ]
+
+Here is an example for two extra multiconfigs: ``target1`` and ``target2``::
+
+ $ bitbake mc::target mc:target1:target mc:target2:target
+
+.. _bb-enabling-multiple-configuration-build-dependencies:
+
+Enabling Multiple Configuration Build Dependencies
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Sometimes dependencies can exist between targets (multiconfigs) in a
+multiple configuration build. For example, suppose that in order to
+build an image for a particular architecture, the root filesystem of
+another build for a different architecture needs to exist. In other
+words, the image for the first multiconfig depends on the root
+filesystem of the second multiconfig. This dependency is essentially
+that the task in the recipe that builds one multiconfig is dependent on
+the completion of the task in the recipe that builds another
+multiconfig.
+
+To enable dependencies in a multiple configuration build, you must
+declare the dependencies in the recipe using the following statement
+form::
+
+ task_or_package[mcdepends] = "mc:from_multiconfig:to_multiconfig:recipe_name:task_on_which_to_depend"
+
+To better show how to use this statement, consider an example with two
+multiconfigs: ``target1`` and ``target2``::
+
+ image_task[mcdepends] = "mc:target1:target2:image2:rootfs_task"
+
+In this example, the
+``from_multiconfig`` is "target1" and the ``to_multiconfig`` is "target2". The
+task on which the image whose recipe contains image_task depends on the
+completion of the rootfs_task used to build out image2, which is
+associated with the "target2" multiconfig.
+
+Once you set up this dependency, you can build the "target1" multiconfig
+using a BitBake command as follows::
+
+ $ bitbake mc:target1:image1
+
+This command executes all the tasks needed to create ``image1`` for the "target1"
+multiconfig. Because of the dependency, BitBake also executes through
+the ``rootfs_task`` for the "target2" multiconfig build.
+
+Having a recipe depend on the root filesystem of another build might not
+seem that useful. Consider this change to the statement in the image1
+recipe::
+
+ image_task[mcdepends] = "mc:target1:target2:image2:image_task"
+
+In this case, BitBake must create ``image2`` for the "target2" build since
+the "target1" build depends on it.
+
+Because "target1" and "target2" are enabled for multiple configuration
+builds and have separate configuration files, BitBake places the
+artifacts for each build in the respective temporary build directories.

- <para>
- Fundamentally, BitBake is a generic task execution
- engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run
- efficiently and in parallel while working within
- complex inter-task dependency constraints.
- One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core
- and builds embedded Linux software stacks using
- a task-oriented approach.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Conceptually, BitBake is similar to GNU Make in
- some regards but has significant differences:
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem><para>
- BitBake executes tasks according to provided
- metadata that builds up the tasks.
- Metadata is stored in recipe (<filename>.bb</filename>)
- and related recipe "append" (<filename>.bbappend</filename>)
- files, configuration (<filename>.conf</filename>) and
- underlying include (<filename>.inc</filename>) files, and
- in class (<filename>.bbclass</filename>) files.
- The metadata provides
- BitBake with instructions on what tasks to run and
- the dependencies between those tasks.
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>
- BitBake includes a fetcher library for obtaining source

- <title>History and Goals</title>
-
- <para>
- BitBake was originally a part of the OpenEmbedded project.
- It was inspired by the Portage package management system
- used by the Gentoo Linux distribution.
- On December 7, 2004, OpenEmbedded project team member
- Chris Larson split the project into two distinct pieces:
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem><para>BitBake, a generic task executor</para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>OpenEmbedded, a metadata set utilized by
- BitBake</para></listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- Today, BitBake is the primary basis of the
- <ulink url="http://www.openembedded.org/">OpenEmbedded</ulink>
- project, which is being used to build and maintain Linux
- distributions such as the
- <ulink url='http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/'>Angstrom Distribution</ulink>,
- and which is also being used as the build tool for Linux projects
- such as the
- <ulink url='http://www.yoctoproject.org'>Yocto Project</ulink>.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Prior to BitBake, no other build tool adequately met the needs of
- an aspiring embedded Linux distribution.
- All of the build systems used by traditional desktop Linux
- distributions lacked important functionality, and none of the
- ad hoc Buildroot-based systems, prevalent in the
- embedded space, were scalable or maintainable.
- </para>

- <para>
- Some important original goals for BitBake were:
- <itemizedlist>

- BitBake satisfies all the original requirements and many more
- with extensions being made to the basic functionality to
- reflect the additional requirements.
- Flexibility and power have always been the priorities.
- BitBake is highly extensible and supports embedded Python code and
- execution of any arbitrary tasks.

- <section id="Concepts">
- <title>Concepts</title>
-
- <para>
- BitBake is a program written in the Python language.
- At the highest level, BitBake interprets metadata, decides
- what tasks are required to run, and executes those tasks.
- Similar to GNU Make, BitBake controls how software is
- built.
- GNU Make achieves its control through "makefiles", while
- BitBake uses "recipes".
- </para>
-
- <para>
- BitBake extends the capabilities of a simple
- tool like GNU Make by allowing for the definition of much more
- complex tasks, such as assembling entire embedded Linux
- distributions.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- The remainder of this section introduces several concepts
- that should be understood in order to better leverage
- the power of BitBake.
- </para>
-
- <section id='recipes'>
- <title>Recipes</title>
-
- <para>
- BitBake Recipes, which are denoted by the file extension
- <filename>.bb</filename>, are the most basic metadata files.
- These recipe files provide BitBake with the following:
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem><para>Descriptive information about the
- package (author, homepage, license, and so on)</para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>The version of the recipe</para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>Existing dependencies (both build
- and runtime dependencies)</para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>Where the source code resides and
- how to fetch it</para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>Whether the source code requires
- any patches, where to find them, and how to apply
- them</para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>How to configure and compile the
- source code</para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>Where on the target machine to install the
- package or packages created</para></listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Within the context of BitBake, or any project utilizing BitBake
- as its build system, files with the <filename>.bb</filename>
- extension are referred to as recipes.
- <note>
- The term "package" is also commonly used to describe recipes.
- However, since the same word is used to describe packaged
- output from a project, it is best to maintain a single
- descriptive term - "recipes".
- Put another way, a single "recipe" file is quite capable
- of generating a number of related but separately installable
- "packages".
- In fact, that ability is fairly common.
- </note>
- </para>
- </section>
-
- <section id='configuration-files'>
- <title>Configuration Files</title>
-
- <para>
- Configuration files, which are denoted by the
- <filename>.conf</filename> extension, define
- various configuration variables that govern the project's build
- process.
- These files fall into several areas that define
- machine configuration options, distribution configuration
- options, compiler tuning options, general common
- configuration options, and user configuration options.
- The main configuration file is the sample
- <filename>bitbake.conf</filename> file, which is
- located within the BitBake source tree
- <filename>conf</filename> directory.
- </para>
- </section>
-
- <section id='classes'>
- <title>Classes</title>
-
- <para>
- Class files, which are denoted by the
- <filename>.bbclass</filename> extension, contain
- information that is useful to share between metadata files.
- The BitBake source tree currently comes with one class metadata file
- called <filename>base.bbclass</filename>.
- You can find this file in the
- <filename>classes</filename> directory.
- The <filename>base.bbclass</filename> class files is special since it
- is always included automatically for all recipes
- and classes.
- This class contains definitions for standard basic tasks such
- as fetching, unpacking, configuring (empty by default),
- compiling (runs any Makefile present), installing (empty by
- default) and packaging (empty by default).
- These tasks are often overridden or extended by other classes
- added during the project development process.
- </para>
- </section>
-
- <section id='layers'>
- <title>Layers</title>
-
- <para>
- Layers allow you to isolate different types of
- customizations from each other.
- While you might find it tempting to keep everything in one layer
- when working on a single project, the more modular you organize
- your metadata, the easier it is to cope with future changes.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- To illustrate how you can use layers to keep things modular,
- consider customizations you might make to support a specific target machine.
- These types of customizations typically reside in a special layer,
- rather than a general layer, called a Board Support Package (BSP)
- Layer.
- Furthermore, the machine customizations should be isolated from
- recipes and metadata that support a new GUI environment, for
- example.
- This situation gives you a couple of layers: one for the machine
- configurations and one for the GUI environment.
- It is important to understand, however, that the BSP layer can still
- make machine-specific additions to recipes within
- the GUI environment layer without polluting the GUI layer itself
- with those machine-specific changes.
- You can accomplish this through a recipe that is a BitBake append
- (<filename>.bbappend</filename>) file.
- </para>
- </section>
-
- <section id='append-bbappend-files'>
- <title>Append Files</title>
-
- <para>
- Append files, which are files that have the
- <filename>.bbappend</filename> file extension, extend or
- override information in an existing recipe file.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- BitBake expects every append file to have a corresponding recipe file.
- Furthermore, the append file and corresponding recipe file
- must use the same root filename.
- The filenames can differ only in the file type suffix used
- (e.g. <filename>formfactor_0.0.bb</filename> and
- <filename>formfactor_0.0.bbappend</filename>).
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Information in append files extends or
- overrides the information in the underlying,
- similarly-named recipe files.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- When you name an append file, you can use the
- "<filename>%</filename>" wildcard character to allow for matching
- recipe names.
- For example, suppose you have an append file named
- as follows:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- busybox_1.21.%.bbappend
- </literallayout>
- That append file would match any <filename>busybox_1.21.</filename><replaceable>x</replaceable><filename>.bb</filename>
- version of the recipe.
- So, the append file would match the following recipe names:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- busybox_1.21.1.bb
- busybox_1.21.2.bb
- busybox_1.21.3.bb
- </literallayout>
- <note><title>Important</title>
- The use of the "<filename>%</filename>" character
- is limited in that it only works directly in front of the
- <filename>.bbappend</filename> portion of the append file's
- name.
- You cannot use the wildcard character in any other
- location of the name.
- </note>
- If the <filename>busybox</filename> recipe was updated to
- <filename>busybox_1.3.0.bb</filename>, the append name would not
- match.
- However, if you named the append file
- <filename>busybox_1.%.bbappend</filename>, then you would have a match.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- In the most general case, you could name the append file something as
- simple as <filename>busybox_%.bbappend</filename> to be entirely
- version independent.

- <title>Usage and syntax</title>
-
- <para>
- Following is the usage and syntax for BitBake:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ bitbake -h
- Usage: bitbake [options] [recipename/target recipe:do_task ...]
-
- Executes the specified task (default is 'build') for a given set of target recipes (.bb files).
- It is assumed there is a conf/bblayers.conf available in cwd or in BBPATH which
- will provide the layer, BBFILES and other configuration information.
-
- Options:
- --version show program's version number and exit
- -h, --help show this help message and exit
- -b BUILDFILE, --buildfile=BUILDFILE
- Execute tasks from a specific .bb recipe directly.
- WARNING: Does not handle any dependencies from other
- recipes.
- -k, --continue Continue as much as possible after an error. While the
- target that failed and anything depending on it cannot
- be built, as much as possible will be built before
- stopping.
- -f, --force Force the specified targets/task to run (invalidating
- any existing stamp file).
- -c CMD, --cmd=CMD Specify the task to execute. The exact options
- available depend on the metadata. Some examples might
- be 'compile' or 'populate_sysroot' or 'listtasks' may
- give a list of the tasks available.
- -C INVALIDATE_STAMP, --clear-stamp=INVALIDATE_STAMP
- Invalidate the stamp for the specified task such as
- 'compile' and then run the default task for the
- specified target(s).
- -r PREFILE, --read=PREFILE
- Read the specified file before bitbake.conf.
- -R POSTFILE, --postread=POSTFILE
- Read the specified file after bitbake.conf.
- -v, --verbose Enable tracing of shell tasks (with 'set -x'). Also
- print bb.note(...) messages to stdout (in addition to
- writing them to ${T}/log.do_&lt;task&gt;).
- -D, --debug Increase the debug level. You can specify this more
- than once. -D sets the debug level to 1, where only
- bb.debug(1, ...) messages are printed to stdout; -DD
- sets the debug level to 2, where both bb.debug(1, ...)
- and bb.debug(2, ...) messages are printed; etc.
- Without -D, no debug messages are printed. Note that
- -D only affects output to stdout. All debug messages
- are written to ${T}/log.do_taskname, regardless of the
- debug level.
- -q, --quiet Output less log message data to the terminal. You can
- specify this more than once.
- -n, --dry-run Don't execute, just go through the motions.
- -S SIGNATURE_HANDLER, --dump-signatures=SIGNATURE_HANDLER
- Dump out the signature construction information, with
- no task execution. The SIGNATURE_HANDLER parameter is
- passed to the handler. Two common values are none and
- printdiff but the handler may define more/less. none
- means only dump the signature, printdiff means compare
- the dumped signature with the cached one.
- -p, --parse-only Quit after parsing the BB recipes.
- -s, --show-versions Show current and preferred versions of all recipes.
- -e, --environment Show the global or per-recipe environment complete
- with information about where variables were
- set/changed.
- -g, --graphviz Save dependency tree information for the specified
- targets in the dot syntax.
- -I EXTRA_ASSUME_PROVIDED, --ignore-deps=EXTRA_ASSUME_PROVIDED
- Assume these dependencies don't exist and are already
- provided (equivalent to ASSUME_PROVIDED). Useful to
- make dependency graphs more appealing
- -l DEBUG_DOMAINS, --log-domains=DEBUG_DOMAINS
- Show debug logging for the specified logging domains
- -P, --profile Profile the command and save reports.
- -u UI, --ui=UI The user interface to use (knotty, ncurses or taskexp
- - default knotty).
- --token=XMLRPCTOKEN Specify the connection token to be used when
- connecting to a remote server.
- --revisions-changed Set the exit code depending on whether upstream
- floating revisions have changed or not.
- --server-only Run bitbake without a UI, only starting a server
- (cooker) process.
- -B BIND, --bind=BIND The name/address for the bitbake xmlrpc server to bind
- to.
- -T SERVER_TIMEOUT, --idle-timeout=SERVER_TIMEOUT
- Set timeout to unload bitbake server due to
- inactivity, set to -1 means no unload, default:
- Environment variable BB_SERVER_TIMEOUT.
- --no-setscene Do not run any setscene tasks. sstate will be ignored
- and everything needed, built.
- --setscene-only Only run setscene tasks, don't run any real tasks.
- --remote-server=REMOTE_SERVER
- Connect to the specified server.

- <para>
- Executing tasks for a single recipe file is relatively simple.
- You specify the file in question, and BitBake parses
- it and executes the specified task.
- If you do not specify a task, BitBake executes the default
- task, which is "buildâ€.
- BitBake obeys inter-task dependencies when doing
- so.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- The following command runs the build task, which is
- the default task, on the <filename>foo_1.0.bb</filename>
- recipe file:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ bitbake -b foo_1.0.bb
- </literallayout>
- The following command runs the clean task on the
- <filename>foo.bb</filename> recipe file:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ bitbake -b foo.bb -c clean

- Clearly there needs to be a way to tell BitBake what
- files are available and, of those, which you
- want to execute.
- There also needs to be a way for each recipe
- to express its dependencies, both for build-time and

- There must be a way for you to express recipe preferences

- <title>Executing a Multiple Configuration Build</title>
-
- <para>
- BitBake is able to build multiple images or packages
- using a single command where the different targets
- require different configurations (multiple configuration
- builds).
- Each target, in this scenario, is referred to as a
- "multiconfig".
- </para>
-
- <para>
- To accomplish a multiple configuration build, you must
- define each target's configuration separately using
- a parallel configuration file in the build directory.
- The location for these multiconfig configuration files
- is specific.
- They must reside in the current build directory in
- a sub-directory of <filename>conf</filename> named
- <filename>multiconfig</filename>.
- Following is an example for two separate targets:
- <imagedata fileref="figures/bb_multiconfig_files.png" align="center" width="4in" depth="3in" />
- </para>
-
- <para>
- The reason for this required file hierarchy
- is because the <filename>BBPATH</filename> variable
- is not constructed until the layers are parsed.
- Consequently, using the configuration file as a
- pre-configuration file is not possible unless it is
- located in the current working directory.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Minimally, each configuration file must define the
- machine and the temporary directory BitBake uses
- for the build.
- Suggested practice dictates that you do not
- overlap the temporary directories used during the
- builds.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Aside from separate configuration files for each
- target, you must also enable BitBake to perform multiple
- configuration builds.
- Enabling is accomplished by setting the
- <link linkend='var-bb-BBMULTICONFIG'><filename>BBMULTICONFIG</filename></link>
- variable in the <filename>local.conf</filename>
- configuration file.
- As an example, suppose you had configuration files
- for <filename>target1</filename> and
- <filename>target2</filename> defined in the build
- directory.
- The following statement in the
- <filename>local.conf</filename> file both enables
- BitBake to perform multiple configuration builds and
- specifies the two extra multiconfigs:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- BBMULTICONFIG = "target1 target2"
- </literallayout>
- </para>
-

- Once the target configuration files are in place and

- <para>
- Sometimes dependencies can exist between targets
- (multiconfigs) in a multiple configuration build.
- For example, suppose that in order to build an image
- for a particular architecture, the root filesystem of
- another build for a different architecture needs to
- exist.
- In other words, the image for the first multiconfig depends
- on the root filesystem of the second multiconfig.
- This dependency is essentially that the task in the recipe
- that builds one multiconfig is dependent on the
- completion of the task in the recipe that builds
- another multiconfig.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- To enable dependencies in a multiple configuration
- build, you must declare the dependencies in the recipe
- using the following statement form:

- <replaceable>task_or_package</replaceable>[mcdepends] = "mc:<replaceable>from_multiconfig</replaceable>:<replaceable>to_multiconfig</replaceable>:<replaceable>recipe_name</replaceable>:<replaceable>task_on_which_to_depend</replaceable>"
- </literallayout>
- To better show how to use this statement, consider an
- example with two multiconfigs: <filename>target1</filename>
- and <filename>target2</filename>:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- <replaceable>image_task</replaceable>[mcdepends] = "mc:target1:target2:<replaceable>image2</replaceable>:<replaceable>rootfs_task</replaceable>"
- </literallayout>
- In this example, the
- <replaceable>from_multiconfig</replaceable> is "target1" and
- the <replaceable>to_multiconfig</replaceable> is "target2".
- The task on which the image whose recipe contains
- <replaceable>image_task</replaceable> depends on the
- completion of the <replaceable>rootfs_task</replaceable>
- used to build out <replaceable>image2</replaceable>, which
- is associated with the "target2" multiconfig.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Once you set up this dependency, you can build the
- "target1" multiconfig using a BitBake command as follows:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ bitbake mc:target1:<replaceable>image1</replaceable>
- </literallayout>
- This command executes all the tasks needed to create
- <replaceable>image1</replaceable> for the "target1"
- multiconfig.
- Because of the dependency, BitBake also executes through
- the <replaceable>rootfs_task</replaceable> for the "target2"
- multiconfig build.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Having a recipe depend on the root filesystem of another
- build might not seem that useful.
- Consider this change to the statement in the
- <replaceable>image1</replaceable> recipe:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- <replaceable>image_task</replaceable>[mcdepends] = "mc:target1:target2:<replaceable>image2</replaceable>:<replaceable>image_task</replaceable>"
- </literallayout>
- In this case, BitBake must create
- <replaceable>image2</replaceable> for the "target2"
- build since the "target1" build depends on it.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Because "target1" and "target2" are enabled for multiple
- configuration builds and have separate configuration
- files, BitBake places the artifacts for each build in the
- respective temporary build directories.

+====================
+Syntax and Operators
+====================
+
+|
+
+BitBake files have their own syntax. The syntax has similarities to
+several other languages but also has some unique features. This section
+describes the available syntax and operators as well as provides
+examples.
+
+Basic Syntax
+============
+
+This section provides some basic syntax examples.
+
+Basic Variable Setting
+----------------------
+
+The following example sets ``VARIABLE`` to "value". This assignment
+occurs immediately as the statement is parsed. It is a "hard"
+assignment. ::
+
+ VARIABLE = "value"
+
+As expected, if you include leading or
+trailing spaces as part of an assignment, the spaces are retained::
+
+ VARIABLE = " value"
+ VARIABLE = "value "
+
+Setting ``VARIABLE`` to "" sets
+it to an empty string, while setting the variable to " " sets it to a
+blank space (i.e. these are not the same values). ::
+
+ VARIABLE = ""
+ VARIABLE = " "
+
+You can use single quotes instead of double quotes when setting a
+variable's value. Doing so allows you to use values that contain the
+double quote character::
+
+ VARIABLE = 'I have a " in my value'
+
+.. note::
+
+ Unlike in Bourne shells, single quotes work identically to double
+ quotes in all other ways. They do not suppress variable expansions.
+
+Modifying Existing Variables
+----------------------------
+
+Sometimes you need to modify existing variables. Following are some
+cases where you might find you want to modify an existing variable:
+
+- Customize a recipe that uses the variable.
+
+- Change a variable's default value used in a ``*.bbclass`` file.
+
+- Change the variable in a ``*.bbappend`` file to override the variable
+ in the original recipe.
+
+- Change the variable in a configuration file so that the value
+ overrides an existing configuration.
+
+Changing a variable value can sometimes depend on how the value was
+originally assigned and also on the desired intent of the change. In
+particular, when you append a value to a variable that has a default
+value, the resulting value might not be what you expect. In this case,
+the value you provide might replace the value rather than append to the
+default value.
+
+If after you have changed a variable's value and something unexplained
+occurs, you can use BitBake to check the actual value of the suspect
+variable. You can make these checks for both configuration and recipe
+level changes:
+
+- For configuration changes, use the following::
+
+ $ bitbake -e
+
+ This
+ command displays variable values after the configuration files (i.e.
+ ``local.conf``, ``bblayers.conf``, ``bitbake.conf`` and so forth)
+ have been parsed.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Variables that are exported to the environment are preceded by the
+ string "export" in the command's output.
+
+- To find changes to a given variable in a specific recipe, use the
+ following::
+
+ $ bitbake recipename -e | grep VARIABLENAME=\"
+
+ This command checks to see if the variable actually makes
+ it into a specific recipe.
+
+Line Joining
+------------
+
+Outside of :ref:`functions <bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:functions>`,
+BitBake joins any line ending in
+a backslash character ("\\") with the following line before parsing
+statements. The most common use for the "\\" character is to split
+variable assignments over multiple lines, as in the following example::
+
+ FOO = "bar \
+ baz \
+ qaz"
+
+Both the "\\" character and the newline
+character that follow it are removed when joining lines. Thus, no
+newline characters end up in the value of ``FOO``.
+
+Consider this additional example where the two assignments both assign
+"barbaz" to ``FOO``::
+
+ FOO = "barbaz"
+ FOO = "bar\
+ baz"
+
+.. note::
+
+ BitBake does not interpret escape sequences like "\\n" in variable
+ values. For these to have an effect, the value must be passed to some
+ utility that interprets escape sequences, such as
+ ``printf`` or ``echo -n``.
+
+Variable Expansion
+------------------
+
+Variables can reference the contents of other variables using a syntax
+that is similar to variable expansion in Bourne shells. The following
+assignments result in A containing "aval" and B evaluating to
+"preavalpost". ::
+
+ A = "aval"
+ B = "pre${A}post"
+
+.. note::
+
+ Unlike in Bourne shells, the curly braces are mandatory: Only ``${FOO}`` and not
+ ``$FOO`` is recognized as an expansion of ``FOO``.
+
+The "=" operator does not immediately expand variable references in the
+right-hand side. Instead, expansion is deferred until the variable
+assigned to is actually used. The result depends on the current values
+of the referenced variables. The following example should clarify this
+behavior::
+
+ A = "${B} baz"
+ B = "${C} bar"
+ C = "foo"
+ *At this point, ${A} equals "foo bar baz"*
+ C = "qux"
+ *At this point, ${A} equals "qux bar baz"*
+ B = "norf"
+ *At this point, ${A} equals "norf baz"*
+
+Contrast this behavior with the
+:ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:immediate variable
+expansion (:=)` operator.
+
+If the variable expansion syntax is used on a variable that does not
+exist, the string is kept as is. For example, given the following
+assignment, ``BAR`` expands to the literal string "${FOO}" as long as
+``FOO`` does not exist. ::
+
+ BAR = "${FOO}"
+
+Setting a default value (?=)
+----------------------------
+
+You can use the "?=" operator to achieve a "softer" assignment for a
+variable. This type of assignment allows you to define a variable if it
+is undefined when the statement is parsed, but to leave the value alone
+if the variable has a value. Here is an example::
+
+ A ?= "aval"
+
+If ``A`` is
+set at the time this statement is parsed, the variable retains its
+value. However, if ``A`` is not set, the variable is set to "aval".
+
+.. note::
+
+ This assignment is immediate. Consequently, if multiple "?="
+ assignments to a single variable exist, the first of those ends up
+ getting used.
+
+Setting a weak default value (??=)
+----------------------------------
+
+The weak default value of a variable is the value which that variable
+will expand to if no value has been assigned to it via any of the other
+assignment operators. The "??=" operator takes effect immediately, replacing
+any previously defined weak default value. Here is an example::
+
+ W ??= "x"
+ A := "${W}" # Immediate variable expansion
+ W ??= "y"
+ B := "${W}" # Immediate variable expansion
+ W ??= "z"
+ C = "${W}"
+ W ?= "i"
+
+After parsing we will have::
+
+ A = "x"
+ B = "y"
+ C = "i"
+ W = "i"
+
+Appending and prepending non-override style will not substitute the weak
+default value, which means that after parsing::
+
+ W ??= "x"
+ W += "y"
+
+we will have::
+
+ W = " y"
+
+On the other hand, override-style appends/prepends/removes are applied after
+any active weak default value has been substituted::
+
+ W ??= "x"
+ W:append = "y"
+
+After parsing we will have::
+
+ W = "xy"
+
+Immediate variable expansion (:=)
+---------------------------------
+
+The ":=" operator results in a variable's contents being expanded
+immediately, rather than when the variable is actually used::
+
+ T = "123"
+ A := "test ${T}"
+ T = "456"
+ B := "${T} ${C}"
+ C = "cval"
+ C := "${C}append"
+
+In this example, ``A`` contains "test 123", even though the final value
+of :term:`T` is "456". The variable :term:`B` will end up containing "456
+cvalappend". This is because references to undefined variables are
+preserved as is during (immediate)expansion. This is in contrast to GNU
+Make, where undefined variables expand to nothing. The variable ``C``
+contains "cvalappend" since ``${C}`` immediately expands to "cval".
+
+.. _appending-and-prepending:
+
+Appending (+=) and prepending (=+) With Spaces
+----------------------------------------------
+
+Appending and prepending values is common and can be accomplished using
+the "+=" and "=+" operators. These operators insert a space between the
+current value and prepended or appended value.
+
+These operators take immediate effect during parsing. Here are some
+examples::
+
+ B = "bval"
+ B += "additionaldata"
+ C = "cval"
+ C =+ "test"
+
+The variable :term:`B` contains "bval additionaldata" and ``C`` contains "test
+cval".
+
+.. _appending-and-prepending-without-spaces:
+
+Appending (.=) and Prepending (=.) Without Spaces
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+If you want to append or prepend values without an inserted space, use
+the ".=" and "=." operators.
+
+These operators take immediate effect during parsing. Here are some
+examples::
+
+ B = "bval"
+ B .= "additionaldata"
+ C = "cval"
+ C =. "test"
+
+The variable :term:`B` contains "bvaladditionaldata" and ``C`` contains
+"testcval".
+
+Appending and Prepending (Override Style Syntax)
+------------------------------------------------
+
+You can also append and prepend a variable's value using an override
+style syntax. When you use this syntax, no spaces are inserted.
+
+These operators differ from the ":=", ".=", "=.", "+=", and "=+"
+operators in that their effects are applied at variable expansion time
+rather than being immediately applied. Here are some examples::
+
+ B = "bval"
+ B:append = " additional data"
+ C = "cval"
+ C:prepend = "additional data "
+ D = "dval"
+ D:append = "additional data"
+
+The variable :term:`B`
+becomes "bval additional data" and ``C`` becomes "additional data cval".
+The variable ``D`` becomes "dvaladditional data".
+
+.. note::
+
+ You must control all spacing when you use the override syntax.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The overrides are applied in this order, ":append", ":prepend", ":remove".
+
+It is also possible to append and prepend to shell functions and
+BitBake-style Python functions. See the ":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:shell functions`" and ":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:bitbake-style python functions`"
+sections for examples.
+
+.. _removing-override-style-syntax:
+
+Removal (Override Style Syntax)
+-------------------------------
+
+You can remove values from lists using the removal override style
+syntax. Specifying a value for removal causes all occurrences of that
+value to be removed from the variable. Unlike ":append" and ":prepend",
+there is no need to add a leading or trailing space to the value.
+
+When you use this syntax, BitBake expects one or more strings.
+Surrounding spaces and spacing are preserved. Here is an example::
+
+ FOO = "123 456 789 123456 123 456 123 456"
+ FOO:remove = "123"
+ FOO:remove = "456"
+ FOO2 = " abc def ghi abcdef abc def abc def def"
+ FOO2:remove = "\
+ def \
+ abc \
+ ghi \
+ "
+
+The variable ``FOO`` becomes
+" 789 123456 " and ``FOO2`` becomes " abcdef ".
+
+Like ":append" and ":prepend", ":remove" is applied at variable
+expansion time.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The overrides are applied in this order, ":append", ":prepend", ":remove".
+ This implies it is not possible to re-append previously removed strings.
+ However, one can undo a ":remove" by using an intermediate variable whose
+ content is passed to the ":remove" so that modifying the intermediate
+ variable equals to keeping the string in::
+
+ FOOREMOVE = "123 456 789"
+ FOO:remove = "${FOOREMOVE}"
+ ...
+ FOOREMOVE = "123 789"
+
+ This expands to ``FOO:remove = "123 789"``.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Override application order may not match variable parse history, i.e.
+ the output of ``bitbake -e`` may contain ":remove" before ":append",
+ but the result will be removed string, because ":remove" is handled
+ last.
+
+Override Style Operation Advantages
+-----------------------------------
+
+An advantage of the override style operations ":append", ":prepend", and
+":remove" as compared to the "+=" and "=+" operators is that the
+override style operators provide guaranteed operations. For example,
+consider a class ``foo.bbclass`` that needs to add the value "val" to
+the variable ``FOO``, and a recipe that uses ``foo.bbclass`` as follows::
+
+ inherit foo
+ FOO = "initial"
+
+If ``foo.bbclass`` uses the "+=" operator,
+as follows, then the final value of ``FOO`` will be "initial", which is
+not what is desired::
+
+ FOO += "val"
+
+If, on the other hand, ``foo.bbclass``
+uses the ":append" operator, then the final value of ``FOO`` will be
+"initial val", as intended::
+
+ FOO:append = " val"
+
+.. note::
+
+ It is never necessary to use "+=" together with ":append". The following
+ sequence of assignments appends "barbaz" to FOO::
+
+ FOO:append = "bar"
+ FOO:append = "baz"
+
+
+ The only effect of changing the second assignment in the previous
+ example to use "+=" would be to add a space before "baz" in the
+ appended value (due to how the "+=" operator works).
+
+Another advantage of the override style operations is that you can
+combine them with other overrides as described in the
+":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:conditional syntax (overrides)`" section.
+
+Variable Flag Syntax
+--------------------
+
+Variable flags are BitBake's implementation of variable properties or
+attributes. It is a way of tagging extra information onto a variable.
+You can find more out about variable flags in general in the
+":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:variable flags`" section.
+
+You can define, append, and prepend values to variable flags. All the
+standard syntax operations previously mentioned work for variable flags
+except for override style syntax (i.e. ":prepend", ":append", and
+":remove").
+
+Here are some examples showing how to set variable flags::
+
+ FOO[a] = "abc"
+ FOO[b] = "123"
+ FOO[a] += "456"
+
+The variable ``FOO`` has two flags:
+``[a]`` and ``[b]``. The flags are immediately set to "abc" and "123",
+respectively. The ``[a]`` flag becomes "abc 456".
+
+No need exists to pre-define variable flags. You can simply start using
+them. One extremely common application is to attach some brief
+documentation to a BitBake variable as follows::
+
+ CACHE[doc] = "The directory holding the cache of the metadata."
+
+.. note::
+
+ Variable flag names starting with an underscore (``_``) character
+ are allowed but are ignored by ``d.getVarFlags("VAR")``
+ in Python code. Such flag names are used internally by BitBake.
+
+Inline Python Variable Expansion
+--------------------------------
+
+You can use inline Python variable expansion to set variables. Here is
+an example::
+
+ DATE = "${@time.strftime('%Y%m%d',time.gmtime())}"
+
+This example results in the ``DATE`` variable being set to the current date.
+
+Probably the most common use of this feature is to extract the value of
+variables from BitBake's internal data dictionary, ``d``. The following
+lines select the values of a package name and its version number,
+respectively::
+
+ PN = "${@bb.parse.vars_from_file(d.getVar('FILE', False),d)[0] or 'defaultpkgname'}"
+ PV = "${@bb.parse.vars_from_file(d.getVar('FILE', False),d)[1] or '1.0'}"
+
+.. note::
+
+ Inline Python expressions work just like variable expansions insofar as the
+ "=" and ":=" operators are concerned. Given the following assignment, foo()
+ is called each time FOO is expanded::
+
+ FOO = "${@foo()}"
+
+ Contrast this with the following immediate assignment, where foo() is only
+ called once, while the assignment is parsed::
+
+ FOO := "${@foo()}"
+
+For a different way to set variables with Python code during parsing,
+see the
+":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:anonymous python functions`" section.
+
+Unsetting variables
+-------------------
+
+It is possible to completely remove a variable or a variable flag from
+BitBake's internal data dictionary by using the "unset" keyword. Here is
+an example::
+
+ unset DATE
+ unset do_fetch[noexec]
+
+These two statements remove the ``DATE`` and the ``do_fetch[noexec]`` flag.
+
+Providing Pathnames
+-------------------
+
+When specifying pathnames for use with BitBake, do not use the tilde
+("~") character as a shortcut for your home directory. Doing so might
+cause BitBake to not recognize the path since BitBake does not expand
+this character in the same way a shell would.
+
+Instead, provide a fuller path as the following example illustrates::
+
+ BBLAYERS ?= " \
+ /home/scott-lenovo/LayerA \
+ "
+
+Exporting Variables to the Environment
+======================================
+
+You can export variables to the environment of running tasks by using
+the ``export`` keyword. For example, in the following example, the
+``do_foo`` task prints "value from the environment" when run::
+
+ export ENV_VARIABLE
+ ENV_VARIABLE = "value from the environment"
+
+ do_foo() {
+ bbplain "$ENV_VARIABLE"
+ }
+
+.. note::
+
+ BitBake does not expand ``$ENV_VARIABLE`` in this case because it lacks the
+ obligatory ``{}`` . Rather, ``$ENV_VARIABLE`` is expanded by the shell.
+
+It does not matter whether ``export ENV_VARIABLE`` appears before or
+after assignments to ``ENV_VARIABLE``.
+
+It is also possible to combine ``export`` with setting a value for the
+variable. Here is an example::
+
+ export ENV_VARIABLE = "variable-value"
+
+In the output of ``bitbake -e``, variables that are exported to the
+environment are preceded by "export".
+
+Among the variables commonly exported to the environment are ``CC`` and
+``CFLAGS``, which are picked up by many build systems.
+
+Conditional Syntax (Overrides)
+==============================
+
+BitBake uses :term:`OVERRIDES` to control what
+variables are overridden after BitBake parses recipes and configuration
+files. This section describes how you can use :term:`OVERRIDES` as
+conditional metadata, talks about key expansion in relationship to
+:term:`OVERRIDES`, and provides some examples to help with understanding.
+
+Conditional Metadata
+--------------------
+
+You can use :term:`OVERRIDES` to conditionally select a specific version of
+a variable and to conditionally append or prepend the value of a
+variable.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Overrides can only use lower-case characters, digits and dashes.
+ In particular, colons are not permitted in override names as they are used to
+ separate overrides from each other and from the variable name.
+
+- *Selecting a Variable:* The :term:`OVERRIDES` variable is a
+ colon-character-separated list that contains items for which you want
+ to satisfy conditions. Thus, if you have a variable that is
+ conditional on "arm", and "arm" is in :term:`OVERRIDES`, then the
+ "arm"-specific version of the variable is used rather than the
+ non-conditional version. Here is an example::
+
+ OVERRIDES = "architecture:os:machine"
+ TEST = "default"
+ TEST:os = "osspecific"
+ TEST:nooverride = "othercondvalue"
+
+ In this example, the :term:`OVERRIDES`
+ variable lists three overrides: "architecture", "os", and "machine".
+ The variable ``TEST`` by itself has a default value of "default". You
+ select the os-specific version of the ``TEST`` variable by appending
+ the "os" override to the variable (i.e. ``TEST:os``).
+
+ To better understand this, consider a practical example that assumes
+ an OpenEmbedded metadata-based Linux kernel recipe file. The
+ following lines from the recipe file first set the kernel branch
+ variable ``KBRANCH`` to a default value, then conditionally override
+ that value based on the architecture of the build::
+
+ KBRANCH = "standard/base"
+ KBRANCH:qemuarm = "standard/arm-versatile-926ejs"
+ KBRANCH:qemumips = "standard/mti-malta32"
+ KBRANCH:qemuppc = "standard/qemuppc"
+ KBRANCH:qemux86 = "standard/common-pc/base"
+ KBRANCH:qemux86-64 = "standard/common-pc-64/base"
+ KBRANCH:qemumips64 = "standard/mti-malta64"
+
+- *Appending and Prepending:* BitBake also supports append and prepend
+ operations to variable values based on whether a specific item is
+ listed in :term:`OVERRIDES`. Here is an example::
+
+ DEPENDS = "glibc ncurses"
+ OVERRIDES = "machine:local"
+ DEPENDS:append:machine = "libmad"
+
+ In this example, :term:`DEPENDS` becomes "glibc ncurses libmad".
+
+ Again, using an OpenEmbedded metadata-based kernel recipe file as an
+ example, the following lines will conditionally append to the
+ ``KERNEL_FEATURES`` variable based on the architecture::
+
+ KERNEL_FEATURES:append = " ${KERNEL_EXTRA_FEATURES}"
+ KERNEL_FEATURES:append:qemux86=" cfg/sound.scc cfg/paravirt_kvm.scc"
+ KERNEL_FEATURES:append:qemux86-64=" cfg/sound.scc cfg/paravirt_kvm.scc"
+
+- *Setting a Variable for a Single Task:* BitBake supports setting a
+ variable just for the duration of a single task. Here is an example::
+
+ FOO:task-configure = "val 1"
+ FOO:task-compile = "val 2"
+
+ In the
+ previous example, ``FOO`` has the value "val 1" while the
+ ``do_configure`` task is executed, and the value "val 2" while the
+ ``do_compile`` task is executed.
+
+ Internally, this is implemented by prepending the task (e.g.
+ "task-compile:") to the value of
+ :term:`OVERRIDES` for the local datastore of the
+ ``do_compile`` task.
+
+ You can also use this syntax with other combinations (e.g.
+ "``:prepend``") as shown in the following example::
+
+ EXTRA_OEMAKE:prepend:task-compile = "${PARALLEL_MAKE} "
+
+.. note::
+
+ Before BitBake 1.52 (Honister 3.4), the syntax for :term:`OVERRIDES`
+ used ``_`` instead of ``:``, so you will still find a lot of documentation
+ using ``_append``, ``_prepend``, and ``_remove``, for example.
+
+ For details, see the
+ :yocto_docs:`Overrides Syntax Changes </migration-guides/migration-3.4.html#override-syntax-changes>`
+ section in the Yocto Project manual migration notes.
+
+Key Expansion
+-------------
+
+Key expansion happens when the BitBake datastore is finalized. To better
+understand this, consider the following example::
+
+ A${B} = "X"
+ B = "2"
+ A2 = "Y"
+
+In this case, after all the parsing is complete, BitBake expands
+``${B}`` into "2". This expansion causes ``A2``, which was set to "Y"
+before the expansion, to become "X".
+
+.. _variable-interaction-worked-examples:
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+Despite the previous explanations that show the different forms of
+variable definitions, it can be hard to work out exactly what happens
+when variable operators, conditional overrides, and unconditional
+overrides are combined. This section presents some common scenarios
+along with explanations for variable interactions that typically confuse
+users.
+
+There is often confusion concerning the order in which overrides and
+various "append" operators take effect. Recall that an append or prepend
+operation using ":append" and ":prepend" does not result in an immediate
+assignment as would "+=", ".=", "=+", or "=.". Consider the following
+example::
+
+ OVERRIDES = "foo"
+ A = "Z"
+ A:foo:append = "X"
+
+For this case,
+``A`` is unconditionally set to "Z" and "X" is unconditionally and
+immediately appended to the variable ``A:foo``. Because overrides have
+not been applied yet, ``A:foo`` is set to "X" due to the append and
+``A`` simply equals "Z".
+
+Applying overrides, however, changes things. Since "foo" is listed in
+:term:`OVERRIDES`, the conditional variable ``A`` is replaced with the "foo"
+version, which is equal to "X". So effectively, ``A:foo`` replaces
+``A``.
+
+This next example changes the order of the override and the append::
+
+ OVERRIDES = "foo"
+ A = "Z"
+ A:append:foo = "X"
+
+For this case, before
+overrides are handled, ``A`` is set to "Z" and ``A:append:foo`` is set
+to "X". Once the override for "foo" is applied, however, ``A`` gets
+appended with "X". Consequently, ``A`` becomes "ZX". Notice that spaces
+are not appended.
+
+This next example has the order of the appends and overrides reversed
+back as in the first example::
+
+ OVERRIDES = "foo"
+ A = "Y"
+ A:foo:append = "Z"
+ A:foo:append = "X"
+
+For this case, before any overrides are resolved,
+``A`` is set to "Y" using an immediate assignment. After this immediate
+assignment, ``A:foo`` is set to "Z", and then further appended with "X"
+leaving the variable set to "ZX". Finally, applying the override for
+"foo" results in the conditional variable ``A`` becoming "ZX" (i.e.
+``A`` is replaced with ``A:foo``).
+
+This final example mixes in some varying operators::
+
+ A = "1"
+ A:append = "2"
+ A:append = "3"
+ A += "4"
+ A .= "5"
+
+For this case, the type of append
+operators are affecting the order of assignments as BitBake passes
+through the code multiple times. Initially, ``A`` is set to "1 45"
+because of the three statements that use immediate operators. After
+these assignments are made, BitBake applies the ":append" operations.
+Those operations result in ``A`` becoming "1 4523".
+
+Sharing Functionality
+=====================
+
+BitBake allows for metadata sharing through include files (``.inc``) and
+class files (``.bbclass``). For example, suppose you have a piece of
+common functionality such as a task definition that you want to share
+between more than one recipe. In this case, creating a ``.bbclass`` file
+that contains the common functionality and then using the ``inherit``
+directive in your recipes to inherit the class would be a common way to
+share the task.
+
+This section presents the mechanisms BitBake provides to allow you to
+share functionality between recipes. Specifically, the mechanisms
+include ``include``, ``inherit``, :term:`INHERIT`, and ``require``
+directives.
+
+Locating Include and Class Files
+--------------------------------
+
+BitBake uses the :term:`BBPATH` variable to locate
+needed include and class files. Additionally, BitBake searches the
+current directory for ``include`` and ``require`` directives.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The BBPATH variable is analogous to the environment variable PATH .
+
+In order for include and class files to be found by BitBake, they need
+to be located in a "classes" subdirectory that can be found in
+:term:`BBPATH`.
+
+``inherit`` Directive
+---------------------
+
+When writing a recipe or class file, you can use the ``inherit``
+directive to inherit the functionality of a class (``.bbclass``).
+BitBake only supports this directive when used within recipe and class
+files (i.e. ``.bb`` and ``.bbclass``).
+
+The ``inherit`` directive is a rudimentary means of specifying
+functionality contained in class files that your recipes require. For
+example, you can easily abstract out the tasks involved in building a
+package that uses Autoconf and Automake and put those tasks into a class
+file and then have your recipe inherit that class file.
+
+As an example, your recipes could use the following directive to inherit
+an ``autotools.bbclass`` file. The class file would contain common
+functionality for using Autotools that could be shared across recipes::
+
+ inherit autotools
+
+In this case, BitBake would search for the directory
+``classes/autotools.bbclass`` in :term:`BBPATH`.
+
+.. note::
+
+ You can override any values and functions of the inherited class
+ within your recipe by doing so after the "inherit" statement.
+
+If you want to use the directive to inherit multiple classes, separate
+them with spaces. The following example shows how to inherit both the
+``buildhistory`` and ``rm_work`` classes::
+
+ inherit buildhistory rm_work
+
+An advantage with the inherit directive as compared to both the
+:ref:`include <bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:\`\`include\`\` directive>` and :ref:`require <bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:\`\`require\`\` directive>`
+directives is that you can inherit class files conditionally. You can
+accomplish this by using a variable expression after the ``inherit``
+statement. Here is an example::
+
+ inherit ${VARNAME}
+
+If ``VARNAME`` is
+going to be set, it needs to be set before the ``inherit`` statement is
+parsed. One way to achieve a conditional inherit in this case is to use
+overrides::
+
+ VARIABLE = ""
+ VARIABLE:someoverride = "myclass"
+
+Another method is by using anonymous Python. Here is an example::
+
+ python () {
+ if condition == value:
+ d.setVar('VARIABLE', 'myclass')
+ else:
+ d.setVar('VARIABLE', '')
+ }
+
+Alternatively, you could use an in-line Python expression in the
+following form::
+
+ inherit ${@'classname' if condition else ''}
+ inherit ${@functionname(params)}
+
+In all cases, if the expression evaluates to an
+empty string, the statement does not trigger a syntax error because it
+becomes a no-op.
+
+``include`` Directive
+---------------------
+
+BitBake understands the ``include`` directive. This directive causes
+BitBake to parse whatever file you specify, and to insert that file at
+that location. The directive is much like its equivalent in Make except
+that if the path specified on the include line is a relative path,
+BitBake locates the first file it can find within :term:`BBPATH`.
+
+The include directive is a more generic method of including
+functionality as compared to the :ref:`inherit <bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:\`\`inherit\`\` directive>`
+directive, which is restricted to class (i.e. ``.bbclass``) files. The
+include directive is applicable for any other kind of shared or
+encapsulated functionality or configuration that does not suit a
+``.bbclass`` file.
+
+As an example, suppose you needed a recipe to include some self-test
+definitions::
+
+ include test_defs.inc
+
+.. note::
+
+ The include directive does not produce an error when the file cannot be
+ found. Consequently, it is recommended that if the file you are including is
+ expected to exist, you should use :ref:`require <require-inclusion>` instead
+ of include . Doing so makes sure that an error is produced if the file cannot
+ be found.
+
+.. _require-inclusion:
+
+``require`` Directive
+---------------------
+
+BitBake understands the ``require`` directive. This directive behaves
+just like the ``include`` directive with the exception that BitBake
+raises a parsing error if the file to be included cannot be found. Thus,
+any file you require is inserted into the file that is being parsed at
+the location of the directive.
+
+The require directive, like the include directive previously described,
+is a more generic method of including functionality as compared to the
+:ref:`inherit <bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:\`\`inherit\`\` directive>` directive, which is restricted to class
+(i.e. ``.bbclass``) files. The require directive is applicable for any
+other kind of shared or encapsulated functionality or configuration that
+does not suit a ``.bbclass`` file.
+
+Similar to how BitBake handles :ref:`include <bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:\`\`include\`\` directive>`, if
+the path specified on the require line is a relative path, BitBake
+locates the first file it can find within :term:`BBPATH`.
+
+As an example, suppose you have two versions of a recipe (e.g.
+``foo_1.2.2.bb`` and ``foo_2.0.0.bb``) where each version contains some
+identical functionality that could be shared. You could create an
+include file named ``foo.inc`` that contains the common definitions
+needed to build "foo". You need to be sure ``foo.inc`` is located in the
+same directory as your two recipe files as well. Once these conditions
+are set up, you can share the functionality using a ``require``
+directive from within each recipe::
+
+ require foo.inc
+
+``INHERIT`` Configuration Directive
+-----------------------------------
+
+When creating a configuration file (``.conf``), you can use the
+:term:`INHERIT` configuration directive to inherit a
+class. BitBake only supports this directive when used within a
+configuration file.
+
+As an example, suppose you needed to inherit a class file called
+``abc.bbclass`` from a configuration file as follows::
+
+ INHERIT += "abc"
+
+This configuration directive causes the named class to be inherited at
+the point of the directive during parsing. As with the ``inherit``
+directive, the ``.bbclass`` file must be located in a "classes"
+subdirectory in one of the directories specified in :term:`BBPATH`.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Because .conf files are parsed first during BitBake's execution, using
+ INHERIT to inherit a class effectively inherits the class globally (i.e. for
+ all recipes).
+
+If you want to use the directive to inherit multiple classes, you can
+provide them on the same line in the ``local.conf`` file. Use spaces to
+separate the classes. The following example shows how to inherit both
+the ``autotools`` and ``pkgconfig`` classes::
+
+ INHERIT += "autotools pkgconfig"
+
+Functions
+=========
+
+As with most languages, functions are the building blocks that are used
+to build up operations into tasks. BitBake supports these types of
+functions:
+
+- *Shell Functions:* Functions written in shell script and executed
+ either directly as functions, tasks, or both. They can also be called
+ by other shell functions.
+
+- *BitBake-Style Python Functions:* Functions written in Python and
+ executed by BitBake or other Python functions using
+ ``bb.build.exec_func()``.
+
+- *Python Functions:* Functions written in Python and executed by
+ Python.
+
+- *Anonymous Python Functions:* Python functions executed automatically
+ during parsing.
+
+Regardless of the type of function, you can only define them in class
+(``.bbclass``) and recipe (``.bb`` or ``.inc``) files.
+
+Shell Functions
+---------------
+
+Functions written in shell script are executed either directly as
+functions, tasks, or both. They can also be called by other shell
+functions. Here is an example shell function definition::
+
+ some_function () {
+ echo "Hello World"
+ }
+
+When you create these types of functions in
+your recipe or class files, you need to follow the shell programming
+rules. The scripts are executed by ``/bin/sh``, which may not be a bash
+shell but might be something such as ``dash``. You should not use
+Bash-specific script (bashisms).
+
+Overrides and override-style operators like ``:append`` and ``:prepend``
+can also be applied to shell functions. Most commonly, this application
+would be used in a ``.bbappend`` file to modify functions in the main
+recipe. It can also be used to modify functions inherited from classes.
+
+As an example, consider the following::
+
+ do_foo() {
+ bbplain first
+ fn
+ }
+
+ fn:prepend() {
+ bbplain second
+ }
+
+ fn() {
+ bbplain third
+ }
+
+ do_foo:append() {
+ bbplain fourth
+ }
+
+Running ``do_foo`` prints the following::
+
+ recipename do_foo: first
+ recipename do_foo: second
+ recipename do_foo: third
+ recipename do_foo: fourth
+
+.. note::
+
+ Overrides and override-style operators can be applied to any shell
+ function, not just :ref:`tasks <bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:tasks>`.
+
+You can use the ``bitbake -e recipename`` command to view the final
+assembled function after all overrides have been applied.
+
+BitBake-Style Python Functions
+------------------------------
+
+These functions are written in Python and executed by BitBake or other
+Python functions using ``bb.build.exec_func()``.
+
+An example BitBake function is::
+
+ python some_python_function () {
+ d.setVar("TEXT", "Hello World")
+ print d.getVar("TEXT")
+ }
+
+Because the
+Python "bb" and "os" modules are already imported, you do not need to
+import these modules. Also in these types of functions, the datastore
+("d") is a global variable and is always automatically available.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Variable expressions (e.g. ``${X}`` ) are no longer expanded within Python
+ functions. This behavior is intentional in order to allow you to freely set
+ variable values to expandable expressions without having them expanded
+ prematurely. If you do wish to expand a variable within a Python function,
+ use ``d.getVar("X")`` . Or, for more complicated expressions, use ``d.expand()``.
+
+Similar to shell functions, you can also apply overrides and
+override-style operators to BitBake-style Python functions.
+
+As an example, consider the following::
+
+ python do_foo:prepend() {
+ bb.plain("first")
+ }
+
+ python do_foo() {
+ bb.plain("second")
+ }
+
+ python do_foo:append() {
+ bb.plain("third")
+ }
+
+Running ``do_foo`` prints the following::
+
+ recipename do_foo: first
+ recipename do_foo: second
+ recipename do_foo: third
+
+You can use the ``bitbake -e recipename`` command to view
+the final assembled function after all overrides have been applied.
+
+Python Functions
+----------------
+
+These functions are written in Python and are executed by other Python
+code. Examples of Python functions are utility functions that you intend
+to call from in-line Python or from within other Python functions. Here
+is an example::
+
+ def get_depends(d):
+ if d.getVar('SOMECONDITION'):
+ return "dependencywithcond"
+ else:
+ return "dependency"
+
+ SOMECONDITION = "1"
+ DEPENDS = "${@get_depends(d)}"
+
+This would result in :term:`DEPENDS` containing ``dependencywithcond``.
+
+Here are some things to know about Python functions:
+
+- Python functions can take parameters.
+
+- The BitBake datastore is not automatically available. Consequently,
+ you must pass it in as a parameter to the function.
+
+- The "bb" and "os" Python modules are automatically available. You do
+ not need to import them.
+
+BitBake-Style Python Functions Versus Python Functions
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+Following are some important differences between BitBake-style Python
+functions and regular Python functions defined with "def":
+
+- Only BitBake-style Python functions can be :ref:`tasks <bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:tasks>`.
+
+- Overrides and override-style operators can only be applied to
+ BitBake-style Python functions.
+
+- Only regular Python functions can take arguments and return values.
+
+- :ref:`Variable flags <bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:variable flags>` such as
+ ``[dirs]``, ``[cleandirs]``, and ``[lockfiles]`` can be used on BitBake-style
+ Python functions, but not on regular Python functions.
+
+- BitBake-style Python functions generate a separate
+ ``${``\ :term:`T`\ ``}/run.``\ function-name\ ``.``\ pid
+ script that is executed to run the function, and also generate a log
+ file in ``${T}/log.``\ function-name\ ``.``\ pid if they are executed
+ as tasks.
+
+ Regular Python functions execute "inline" and do not generate any
+ files in ``${T}``.
+
+- Regular Python functions are called with the usual Python syntax.
+ BitBake-style Python functions are usually tasks and are called
+ directly by BitBake, but can also be called manually from Python code
+ by using the ``bb.build.exec_func()`` function. Here is an example::
+
+ bb.build.exec_func("my_bitbake_style_function", d)
+
+ .. note::
+
+ ``bb.build.exec_func()`` can also be used to run shell functions from Python
+ code. If you want to run a shell function before a Python function within
+ the same task, then you can use a parent helper Python function that
+ starts by running the shell function with ``bb.build.exec_func()`` and then
+ runs the Python code.
+
+ To detect errors from functions executed with
+ ``bb.build.exec_func()``, you can catch the ``bb.build.FuncFailed``
+ exception.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Functions in metadata (recipes and classes) should not themselves raise
+ ``bb.build.FuncFailed``. Rather, ``bb.build.FuncFailed`` should be viewed as a
+ general indicator that the called function failed by raising an
+ exception. For example, an exception raised by ``bb.fatal()`` will be caught
+ inside ``bb.build.exec_func()``, and a ``bb.build.FuncFailed`` will be raised in
+ response.
+
+Due to their simplicity, you should prefer regular Python functions over
+BitBake-style Python functions unless you need a feature specific to
+BitBake-style Python functions. Regular Python functions in metadata are
+a more recent invention than BitBake-style Python functions, and older
+code tends to use ``bb.build.exec_func()`` more often.
+
+Anonymous Python Functions
+--------------------------
+
+Sometimes it is useful to set variables or perform other operations
+programmatically during parsing. To do this, you can define special
+Python functions, called anonymous Python functions, that run at the end
+of parsing. For example, the following conditionally sets a variable
+based on the value of another variable::
+
+ python () {
+ if d.getVar('SOMEVAR') == 'value':
+ d.setVar('ANOTHERVAR', 'value2')
+ }
+
+An equivalent way to mark a function as an anonymous function is to give it
+the name "__anonymous", rather than no name.
+
+Anonymous Python functions always run at the end of parsing, regardless
+of where they are defined. If a recipe contains many anonymous
+functions, they run in the same order as they are defined within the
+recipe. As an example, consider the following snippet::
+
+ python () {
+ d.setVar('FOO', 'foo 2')
+ }
+
+ FOO = "foo 1"
+
+ python () {
+ d.appendVar('BAR',' bar 2')
+ }
+
+ BAR = "bar 1"
+
+The previous example is conceptually
+equivalent to the following snippet::
+
+ FOO = "foo 1"
+ BAR = "bar 1"
+ FOO = "foo 2"
+ BAR += "bar 2"
+
+``FOO`` ends up with the value "foo 2", and
+``BAR`` with the value "bar 1 bar 2". Just as in the second snippet, the
+values set for the variables within the anonymous functions become
+available to tasks, which always run after parsing.
+
+Overrides and override-style operators such as "``:append``" are applied
+before anonymous functions run. In the following example, ``FOO`` ends
+up with the value "foo from anonymous"::
+
+ FOO = "foo"
+ FOO:append = " from outside"
+
+ python () {
+ d.setVar("FOO", "foo from anonymous")
+ }
+
+For methods
+you can use with anonymous Python functions, see the
+":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:functions you can call from within python`"
+section. For a different method to run Python code during parsing, see
+the ":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:inline python variable expansion`" section.
+
+Flexible Inheritance for Class Functions
+----------------------------------------
+
+Through coding techniques and the use of ``EXPORT_FUNCTIONS``, BitBake
+supports exporting a function from a class such that the class function
+appears as the default implementation of the function, but can still be
+called if a recipe inheriting the class needs to define its own version
+of the function.
+
+To understand the benefits of this feature, consider the basic scenario
+where a class defines a task function and your recipe inherits the
+class. In this basic scenario, your recipe inherits the task function as
+defined in the class. If desired, your recipe can add to the start and
+end of the function by using the ":prepend" or ":append" operations
+respectively, or it can redefine the function completely. However, if it
+redefines the function, there is no means for it to call the class
+version of the function. ``EXPORT_FUNCTIONS`` provides a mechanism that
+enables the recipe's version of the function to call the original
+version of the function.
+
+To make use of this technique, you need the following things in place:
+
+- The class needs to define the function as follows::
+
+ classname_functionname
+
+ For example, if you have a class file
+ ``bar.bbclass`` and a function named ``do_foo``, the class must
+ define the function as follows::
+
+ bar_do_foo
+
+- The class needs to contain the ``EXPORT_FUNCTIONS`` statement as
+ follows::
+
+ EXPORT_FUNCTIONS functionname
+
+ For example, continuing with
+ the same example, the statement in the ``bar.bbclass`` would be as
+ follows::
+
+ EXPORT_FUNCTIONS do_foo
+
+- You need to call the function appropriately from within your recipe.
+ Continuing with the same example, if your recipe needs to call the
+ class version of the function, it should call ``bar_do_foo``.
+ Assuming ``do_foo`` was a shell function and ``EXPORT_FUNCTIONS`` was
+ used as above, the recipe's function could conditionally call the
+ class version of the function as follows::
+
+ do_foo() {
+ if [ somecondition ] ; then
+ bar_do_foo
+ else
+ # Do something else
+ fi
+ }
+
+ To call your modified version of the function as defined in your recipe,
+ call it as ``do_foo``.
+
+With these conditions met, your single recipe can freely choose between
+the original function as defined in the class file and the modified
+function in your recipe. If you do not set up these conditions, you are
+limited to using one function or the other.
+
+Tasks
+=====
+
+Tasks are BitBake execution units that make up the steps that BitBake
+can run for a given recipe. Tasks are only supported in recipes and
+classes (i.e. in ``.bb`` files and files included or inherited from
+``.bb`` files). By convention, tasks have names that start with "do\_".
+
+Promoting a Function to a Task
+------------------------------
+
+Tasks are either :ref:`shell functions <bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:shell functions>` or
+:ref:`BitBake-style Python functions <bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:bitbake-style python functions>`
+that have been promoted to tasks by using the ``addtask`` command. The
+``addtask`` command can also optionally describe dependencies between
+the task and other tasks. Here is an example that shows how to define a
+task and declare some dependencies::
+
+ python do_printdate () {
+ import time
+ print time.strftime('%Y%m%d', time.gmtime())
+ }
+ addtask printdate after do_fetch before do_build
+
+The first argument to ``addtask`` is the name
+of the function to promote to a task. If the name does not start with
+"do\_", "do\_" is implicitly added, which enforces the convention that all
+task names start with "do\_".
+
+In the previous example, the ``do_printdate`` task becomes a dependency
+of the ``do_build`` task, which is the default task (i.e. the task run
+by the ``bitbake`` command unless another task is specified explicitly).
+Additionally, the ``do_printdate`` task becomes dependent upon the
+``do_fetch`` task. Running the ``do_build`` task results in the
+``do_printdate`` task running first.
+
+.. note::
+
+ If you try out the previous example, you might see that the
+ ``do_printdate``
+ task is only run the first time you build the recipe with the
+ ``bitbake``
+ command. This is because BitBake considers the task "up-to-date"
+ after that initial run. If you want to force the task to always be
+ rerun for experimentation purposes, you can make BitBake always
+ consider the task "out-of-date" by using the
+ :ref:`[nostamp] <bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:Variable Flags>`
+ variable flag, as follows::
+
+ do_printdate[nostamp] = "1"
+
+ You can also explicitly run the task and provide the
+ -f option as follows::
+
+ $ bitbake recipe -c printdate -f
+
+ When manually selecting a task to run with the bitbake ``recipe
+ -c task`` command, you can omit the "do\_" prefix as part of the task
+ name.
+
+You might wonder about the practical effects of using ``addtask``
+without specifying any dependencies as is done in the following example::
+
+ addtask printdate
+
+In this example, assuming dependencies have not been
+added through some other means, the only way to run the task is by
+explicitly selecting it with ``bitbake`` recipe ``-c printdate``. You
+can use the ``do_listtasks`` task to list all tasks defined in a recipe
+as shown in the following example::
+
+ $ bitbake recipe -c listtasks
+
+For more information on task dependencies, see the
+":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-execution:dependencies`" section.
+
+See the ":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:variable flags`" section for information
+on variable flags you can use with tasks.
+
+.. note::
+
+ While it's infrequent, it's possible to define multiple tasks as
+ dependencies when calling ``addtask``. For example, here's a snippet
+ from the OpenEmbedded class file ``package_tar.bbclass``::
+
+ addtask package_write_tar before do_build after do_packagedata do_package
+
+ Note how the ``package_write_tar`` task has to wait until both of
+ ``do_packagedata`` and ``do_package`` complete.
+
+Deleting a Task
+---------------
+
+As well as being able to add tasks, you can delete them. Simply use the
+``deltask`` command to delete a task. For example, to delete the example
+task used in the previous sections, you would use::
+
+ deltask printdate
+
+If you delete a task using the ``deltask`` command and the task has
+dependencies, the dependencies are not reconnected. For example, suppose
+you have three tasks named ``do_a``, ``do_b``, and ``do_c``.
+Furthermore, ``do_c`` is dependent on ``do_b``, which in turn is
+dependent on ``do_a``. Given this scenario, if you use ``deltask`` to
+delete ``do_b``, the implicit dependency relationship between ``do_c``
+and ``do_a`` through ``do_b`` no longer exists, and ``do_c``
+dependencies are not updated to include ``do_a``. Thus, ``do_c`` is free
+to run before ``do_a``.
+
+If you want dependencies such as these to remain intact, use the
+``[noexec]`` varflag to disable the task instead of using the
+``deltask`` command to delete it::
+
+ do_b[noexec] = "1"
+
+Passing Information Into the Build Task Environment
+---------------------------------------------------
+
+When running a task, BitBake tightly controls the shell execution
+environment of the build tasks to make sure unwanted contamination from
+the build machine cannot influence the build.
+
+.. note::
+
+ By default, BitBake cleans the environment to include only those
+ things exported or listed in its passthrough list to ensure that the
+ build environment is reproducible and consistent. You can prevent this
+ "cleaning" by setting the :term:`BB_PRESERVE_ENV` variable.
+
+Consequently, if you do want something to get passed into the build task
+environment, you must take these two steps:
+
+#. Tell BitBake to load what you want from the environment into the
+ datastore. You can do so through the
+ :term:`BB_ENV_PASSTHROUGH` and
+ :term:`BB_ENV_PASSTHROUGH_ADDITIONS` variables. For
+ example, assume you want to prevent the build system from accessing
+ your ``$HOME/.ccache`` directory. The following command adds the
+ the environment variable ``CCACHE_DIR`` to BitBake's passthrough
+ list to allow that variable into the datastore::
+
+ export BB_ENV_PASSTHROUGH_ADDITIONS="$BB_ENV_PASSTHROUGH_ADDITIONS CCACHE_DIR"
+
+#. Tell BitBake to export what you have loaded into the datastore to the
+ task environment of every running task. Loading something from the
+ environment into the datastore (previous step) only makes it
+ available in the datastore. To export it to the task environment of
+ every running task, use a command similar to the following in your
+ local configuration file ``local.conf`` or your distribution
+ configuration file::
+
+ export CCACHE_DIR
+
+ .. note::
+
+ A side effect of the previous steps is that BitBake records the
+ variable as a dependency of the build process in things like the
+ setscene checksums. If doing so results in unnecessary rebuilds of
+ tasks, you can also flag the variable so that the setscene code
+ ignores the dependency when it creates checksums.
+
+Sometimes, it is useful to be able to obtain information from the
+original execution environment. BitBake saves a copy of the original
+environment into a special variable named :term:`BB_ORIGENV`.
+
+The :term:`BB_ORIGENV` variable returns a datastore object that can be
+queried using the standard datastore operators such as
+``getVar(, False)``. The datastore object is useful, for example, to
+find the original ``DISPLAY`` variable. Here is an example::
+
+ origenv = d.getVar("BB_ORIGENV", False)
+ bar = origenv.getVar("BAR", False)
+
+The previous example returns ``BAR`` from the original execution
+environment.
+
+Variable Flags
+==============
+
+Variable flags (varflags) help control a task's functionality and
+dependencies. BitBake reads and writes varflags to the datastore using
+the following command forms::
+
+ variable = d.getVarFlags("variable")
+ self.d.setVarFlags("FOO", {"func": True})
+
+When working with varflags, the same syntax, with the exception of
+overrides, applies. In other words, you can set, append, and prepend
+varflags just like variables. See the
+":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:variable flag syntax`" section for details.
+
+BitBake has a defined set of varflags available for recipes and classes.
+Tasks support a number of these flags which control various
+functionality of the task:
+
+- ``[cleandirs]``: Empty directories that should be created before
+ the task runs. Directories that already exist are removed and
+ recreated to empty them.
+
+- ``[depends]``: Controls inter-task dependencies. See the
+ :term:`DEPENDS` variable and the
+ ":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:inter-task
+ dependencies`" section for more information.
+
+- ``[deptask]``: Controls task build-time dependencies. See the
+ :term:`DEPENDS` variable and the ":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:build dependencies`" section for more information.
+
+- ``[dirs]``: Directories that should be created before the task
+ runs. Directories that already exist are left as is. The last
+ directory listed is used as the current working directory for the
+ task.
+
+- ``[file-checksums]``: Controls the file dependencies for a task. The
+ baseline file list is the set of files associated with
+ :term:`SRC_URI`. May be used to set additional dependencies on
+ files not associated with :term:`SRC_URI`.
+
+ The value set to the list is a file-boolean pair where the first
+ value is the file name and the second is whether or not it
+ physically exists on the filesystem. ::
+
+ do_configure[file-checksums] += "${MY_DIRPATH}/my-file.txt:True"
+
+ It is important to record any paths which the task looked at and
+ which didn't exist. This means that if these do exist at a later
+ time, the task can be rerun with the new additional files. The
+ "exists" True or False value after the path allows this to be
+ handled.
+
+- ``[lockfiles]``: Specifies one or more lockfiles to lock while the
+ task executes. Only one task may hold a lockfile, and any task that
+ attempts to lock an already locked file will block until the lock is
+ released. You can use this variable flag to accomplish mutual
+ exclusion.
+
+- ``[network]``: When set to "1", allows a task to access the network. By
+ default, only the ``do_fetch`` task is granted network access. Recipes
+ shouldn't access the network outside of ``do_fetch`` as it usually
+ undermines fetcher source mirroring, image and licence manifests, software
+ auditing and supply chain security.
+
+- ``[noexec]``: When set to "1", marks the task as being empty, with
+ no execution required. You can use the ``[noexec]`` flag to set up
+ tasks as dependency placeholders, or to disable tasks defined
+ elsewhere that are not needed in a particular recipe.
+
+- ``[nostamp]``: When set to "1", tells BitBake to not generate a
+ stamp file for a task, which implies the task should always be
+ executed.
+
+ .. caution::
+
+ Any task that depends (possibly indirectly) on a ``[nostamp]`` task will
+ always be executed as well. This can cause unnecessary rebuilding if you
+ are not careful.
+
+- ``[number_threads]``: Limits tasks to a specific number of
+ simultaneous threads during execution. This varflag is useful when
+ your build host has a large number of cores but certain tasks need to
+ be rate-limited due to various kinds of resource constraints (e.g. to
+ avoid network throttling). ``number_threads`` works similarly to the
+ :term:`BB_NUMBER_THREADS` variable but is task-specific.
+
+ Set the value globally. For example, the following makes sure the
+ ``do_fetch`` task uses no more than two simultaneous execution
+ threads: do_fetch[number_threads] = "2"
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ - Setting the varflag in individual recipes rather than globally
+ can result in unpredictable behavior.
+
+ - Setting the varflag to a value greater than the value used in
+ the :term:`BB_NUMBER_THREADS` variable causes ``number_threads`` to
+ have no effect.
+
+- ``[postfuncs]``: List of functions to call after the completion of
+ the task.
+
+- ``[prefuncs]``: List of functions to call before the task executes.
+
+- ``[rdepends]``: Controls inter-task runtime dependencies. See the
+ :term:`RDEPENDS` variable, the
+ :term:`RRECOMMENDS` variable, and the
+ ":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:inter-task dependencies`" section for
+ more information.
+
+- ``[rdeptask]``: Controls task runtime dependencies. See the
+ :term:`RDEPENDS` variable, the
+ :term:`RRECOMMENDS` variable, and the
+ ":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:runtime dependencies`" section for more
+ information.
+
+- ``[recideptask]``: When set in conjunction with ``recrdeptask``,
+ specifies a task that should be inspected for additional
+ dependencies.
+
+- ``[recrdeptask]``: Controls task recursive runtime dependencies.
+ See the :term:`RDEPENDS` variable, the
+ :term:`RRECOMMENDS` variable, and the
+ ":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:recursive dependencies`" section for
+ more information.
+
+- ``[stamp-extra-info]``: Extra stamp information to append to the
+ task's stamp. As an example, OpenEmbedded uses this flag to allow
+ machine-specific tasks.
+
+- ``[umask]``: The umask to run the task under.
+
+Several varflags are useful for controlling how signatures are
+calculated for variables. For more information on this process, see the
+":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-execution:checksums (signatures)`" section.
+
+- ``[vardeps]``: Specifies a space-separated list of additional
+ variables to add to a variable's dependencies for the purposes of
+ calculating its signature. Adding variables to this list is useful,
+ for example, when a function refers to a variable in a manner that
+ does not allow BitBake to automatically determine that the variable
+ is referred to.
+
+- ``[vardepsexclude]``: Specifies a space-separated list of variables
+ that should be excluded from a variable's dependencies for the
+ purposes of calculating its signature.
+
+- ``[vardepvalue]``: If set, instructs BitBake to ignore the actual
+ value of the variable and instead use the specified value when
+ calculating the variable's signature.
+
+- ``[vardepvalueexclude]``: Specifies a pipe-separated list of
+ strings to exclude from the variable's value when calculating the
+ variable's signature.
+
+Events
+======
+
+BitBake allows installation of event handlers within recipe and class
+files. Events are triggered at certain points during operation, such as
+the beginning of operation against a given recipe (i.e. ``*.bb``), the
+start of a given task, a task failure, a task success, and so forth. The
+intent is to make it easy to do things like email notification on build
+failures.
+
+Following is an example event handler that prints the name of the event
+and the content of the :term:`FILE` variable::
+
+ addhandler myclass_eventhandler
+ python myclass_eventhandler() {
+ from bb.event import getName
+ print("The name of the Event is %s" % getName(e))
+ print("The file we run for is %s" % d.getVar('FILE'))
+ }
+ myclass_eventhandler[eventmask] = "bb.event.BuildStarted
+ bb.event.BuildCompleted"
+
+In the previous example, an eventmask has been
+set so that the handler only sees the "BuildStarted" and
+"BuildCompleted" events. This event handler gets called every time an
+event matching the eventmask is triggered. A global variable "e" is
+defined, which represents the current event. With the ``getName(e)``
+method, you can get the name of the triggered event. The global
+datastore is available as "d". In legacy code, you might see "e.data"
+used to get the datastore. However, realize that "e.data" is deprecated
+and you should use "d" going forward.
+
+The context of the datastore is appropriate to the event in question.
+For example, "BuildStarted" and "BuildCompleted" events run before any
+tasks are executed so would be in the global configuration datastore
+namespace. No recipe-specific metadata exists in that namespace. The
+"BuildStarted" and "BuildCompleted" events also run in the main
+cooker/server process rather than any worker context. Thus, any changes
+made to the datastore would be seen by other cooker/server events within
+the current build but not seen outside of that build or in any worker
+context. Task events run in the actual tasks in question consequently
+have recipe-specific and task-specific contents. These events run in the
+worker context and are discarded at the end of task execution.
+
+During a standard build, the following common events might occur. The
+following events are the most common kinds of events that most metadata
+might have an interest in viewing:
+
+- ``bb.event.ConfigParsed()``: Fired when the base configuration; which
+ consists of ``bitbake.conf``, ``base.bbclass`` and any global
+ :term:`INHERIT` statements; has been parsed. You can see multiple such
+ events when each of the workers parse the base configuration or if
+ the server changes configuration and reparses. Any given datastore
+ only has one such event executed against it, however. If
+ :term:`BB_INVALIDCONF` is set in the datastore by the event
+ handler, the configuration is reparsed and a new event triggered,
+ allowing the metadata to update configuration.
+
+- ``bb.event.HeartbeatEvent()``: Fires at regular time intervals of one
+ second. You can configure the interval time using the
+ ``BB_HEARTBEAT_EVENT`` variable. The event's "time" attribute is the
+ ``time.time()`` value when the event is triggered. This event is
+ useful for activities such as system state monitoring.
+
+- ``bb.event.ParseStarted()``: Fired when BitBake is about to start
+ parsing recipes. This event's "total" attribute represents the number
+ of recipes BitBake plans to parse.
+
+- ``bb.event.ParseProgress()``: Fired as parsing progresses. This
+ event's "current" attribute is the number of recipes parsed as well
+ as the "total" attribute.
+
+- ``bb.event.ParseCompleted()``: Fired when parsing is complete. This
+ event's "cached", "parsed", "skipped", "virtuals", "masked", and
+ "errors" attributes provide statistics for the parsing results.
+
+- ``bb.event.BuildStarted()``: Fired when a new build starts. BitBake
+ fires multiple "BuildStarted" events (one per configuration) when
+ multiple configuration (multiconfig) is enabled.
+
+- ``bb.build.TaskStarted()``: Fired when a task starts. This event's
+ "taskfile" attribute points to the recipe from which the task
+ originates. The "taskname" attribute, which is the task's name,
+ includes the ``do_`` prefix, and the "logfile" attribute point to
+ where the task's output is stored. Finally, the "time" attribute is
+ the task's execution start time.
+
+- ``bb.build.TaskInvalid()``: Fired if BitBake tries to execute a task
+ that does not exist.
+
+- ``bb.build.TaskFailedSilent()``: Fired for setscene tasks that fail
+ and should not be presented to the user verbosely.
+
+- ``bb.build.TaskFailed()``: Fired for normal tasks that fail.
+
+- ``bb.build.TaskSucceeded()``: Fired when a task successfully
+ completes.
+
+- ``bb.event.BuildCompleted()``: Fired when a build finishes.
+
+- ``bb.cooker.CookerExit()``: Fired when the BitBake server/cooker
+ shuts down. This event is usually only seen by the UIs as a sign they
+ should also shutdown.
+
+This next list of example events occur based on specific requests to the
+server. These events are often used to communicate larger pieces of
+information from the BitBake server to other parts of BitBake such as
+user interfaces:
+
+- ``bb.event.TreeDataPreparationStarted()``
+- ``bb.event.TreeDataPreparationProgress()``
+- ``bb.event.TreeDataPreparationCompleted()``
+- ``bb.event.DepTreeGenerated()``
+- ``bb.event.CoreBaseFilesFound()``
+- ``bb.event.ConfigFilePathFound()``
+- ``bb.event.FilesMatchingFound()``
+- ``bb.event.ConfigFilesFound()``
+- ``bb.event.TargetsTreeGenerated()``
+
+.. _variants-class-extension-mechanism:
+
+Variants --- Class Extension Mechanism
+======================================
+
+BitBake supports multiple incarnations of a recipe file via the
+:term:`BBCLASSEXTEND` variable.
+
+The :term:`BBCLASSEXTEND` variable is a space separated list of classes used
+to "extend" the recipe for each variant. Here is an example that results in a
+second incarnation of the current recipe being available. This second
+incarnation will have the "native" class inherited. ::
+
+ BBCLASSEXTEND = "native"
+
+.. note::
+
+ The mechanism for this class extension is extremely specific to the
+ implementation. Usually, the recipe's :term:`PROVIDES` , :term:`PN` , and
+ :term:`DEPENDS` variables would need to be modified by the extension
+ class. For specific examples, see the OE-Core native , nativesdk , and
+ multilib classes.
+
+Dependencies
+============
+
+To allow for efficient parallel processing, BitBake handles dependencies
+at the task level. Dependencies can exist both between tasks within a
+single recipe and between tasks in different recipes. Following are
+examples of each:
+
+- For tasks within a single recipe, a recipe's ``do_configure`` task
+ might need to complete before its ``do_compile`` task can run.
+
+- For tasks in different recipes, one recipe's ``do_configure`` task
+ might require another recipe's ``do_populate_sysroot`` task to finish
+ first such that the libraries and headers provided by the other
+ recipe are available.
+
+This section describes several ways to declare dependencies. Remember,
+even though dependencies are declared in different ways, they are all
+simply dependencies between tasks.
+
+.. _dependencies-internal-to-the-bb-file:
+
+Dependencies Internal to the ``.bb`` File
+-----------------------------------------
+
+BitBake uses the ``addtask`` directive to manage dependencies that are
+internal to a given recipe file. You can use the ``addtask`` directive
+to indicate when a task is dependent on other tasks or when other tasks
+depend on that recipe. Here is an example::
+
+ addtask printdate after do_fetch before do_build
+
+In this example, the ``do_printdate`` task
+depends on the completion of the ``do_fetch`` task, and the ``do_build``
+task depends on the completion of the ``do_printdate`` task.
+
+.. note::
+
+ For a task to run, it must be a direct or indirect dependency of some
+ other task that is scheduled to run.
+
+ For illustration, here are some examples:
+
+ - The directive ``addtask mytask before do_configure`` causes
+ ``do_mytask`` to run before ``do_configure`` runs. Be aware that
+ ``do_mytask`` still only runs if its :ref:`input
+ checksum <bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-execution:checksums (signatures)>` has changed since the last time it was
+ run. Changes to the input checksum of ``do_mytask`` also
+ indirectly cause ``do_configure`` to run.
+
+ - The directive ``addtask mytask after do_configure`` by itself
+ never causes ``do_mytask`` to run. ``do_mytask`` can still be run
+ manually as follows::
+
+ $ bitbake recipe -c mytask
+
+ Declaring ``do_mytask`` as a dependency of some other task that is
+ scheduled to run also causes it to run. Regardless, the task runs after
+ ``do_configure``.
+
+Build Dependencies
+------------------
+
+BitBake uses the :term:`DEPENDS` variable to manage
+build time dependencies. The ``[deptask]`` varflag for tasks signifies
+the task of each item listed in :term:`DEPENDS` that must complete before
+that task can be executed. Here is an example::
+
+ do_configure[deptask] = "do_populate_sysroot"
+
+In this example, the ``do_populate_sysroot`` task
+of each item in :term:`DEPENDS` must complete before ``do_configure`` can
+execute.
+
+Runtime Dependencies
+--------------------
+
+BitBake uses the :term:`PACKAGES`, :term:`RDEPENDS`, and :term:`RRECOMMENDS`
+variables to manage runtime dependencies.
+
+The :term:`PACKAGES` variable lists runtime packages. Each of those packages
+can have :term:`RDEPENDS` and :term:`RRECOMMENDS` runtime dependencies. The
+``[rdeptask]`` flag for tasks is used to signify the task of each item
+runtime dependency which must have completed before that task can be
+executed. ::
+
+ do_package_qa[rdeptask] = "do_packagedata"
+
+In the previous
+example, the ``do_packagedata`` task of each item in :term:`RDEPENDS` must
+have completed before ``do_package_qa`` can execute.
+Although :term:`RDEPENDS` contains entries from the
+runtime dependency namespace, BitBake knows how to map them back
+to the build-time dependency namespace, in which the tasks are defined.
+
+Recursive Dependencies
+----------------------
+
+BitBake uses the ``[recrdeptask]`` flag to manage recursive task
+dependencies. BitBake looks through the build-time and runtime
+dependencies of the current recipe, looks through the task's inter-task
+dependencies, and then adds dependencies for the listed task. Once
+BitBake has accomplished this, it recursively works through the
+dependencies of those tasks. Iterative passes continue until all
+dependencies are discovered and added.
+
+The ``[recrdeptask]`` flag is most commonly used in high-level recipes
+that need to wait for some task to finish "globally". For example,
+``image.bbclass`` has the following::
+
+ do_rootfs[recrdeptask] += "do_packagedata"
+
+This statement says that the ``do_packagedata`` task of
+the current recipe and all recipes reachable (by way of dependencies)
+from the image recipe must run before the ``do_rootfs`` task can run.
+
+BitBake allows a task to recursively depend on itself by
+referencing itself in the task list::
+
+ do_a[recrdeptask] = "do_a do_b"
+
+In the same way as before, this means that the ``do_a``
+and ``do_b`` tasks of the current recipe and all
+recipes reachable (by way of dependencies) from the recipe
+must run before the ``do_a`` task can run. In this
+case BitBake will ignore the current recipe's ``do_a``
+task circular dependency on itself.
+
+Inter-Task Dependencies
+-----------------------
+
+BitBake uses the ``[depends]`` flag in a more generic form to manage
+inter-task dependencies. This more generic form allows for
+inter-dependency checks for specific tasks rather than checks for the
+data in :term:`DEPENDS`. Here is an example::
+
+ do_patch[depends] = "quilt-native:do_populate_sysroot"
+
+In this example, the ``do_populate_sysroot`` task of the target ``quilt-native``
+must have completed before the ``do_patch`` task can execute.
+
+The ``[rdepends]`` flag works in a similar way but takes targets in the
+runtime namespace instead of the build-time dependency namespace.
+
+Functions You Can Call From Within Python
+=========================================
+
+BitBake provides many functions you can call from within Python
+functions. This section lists the most commonly used functions, and
+mentions where to find others.
+
+Functions for Accessing Datastore Variables
+-------------------------------------------
+
+It is often necessary to access variables in the BitBake datastore using
+Python functions. The BitBake datastore has an API that allows you this
+access. Here is a list of available operations:
+
+.. list-table::
+ :widths: auto
+ :header-rows: 1
+
+ * - *Operation*
+ - *Description*
+ * - ``d.getVar("X", expand)``
+ - Returns the value of variable "X". Using "expand=True" expands the
+ value. Returns "None" if the variable "X" does not exist.
+ * - ``d.setVar("X", "value")``
+ - Sets the variable "X" to "value"
+ * - ``d.appendVar("X", "value")``
+ - Adds "value" to the end of the variable "X". Acts like ``d.setVar("X",
+ "value")`` if the variable "X" does not exist.
+ * - ``d.prependVar("X", "value")``
+ - Adds "value" to the start of the variable "X". Acts like
+ ``d.setVar("X","value")`` if the variable "X" does not exist.
+ * - ``d.delVar("X")``
+ - Deletes the variable "X" from the datastore. Does nothing if the variable
+ "X" does not exist.
+ * - ``d.renameVar("X", "Y")``
+ - Renames the variable "X" to "Y". Does nothing if the variable "X" does
+ not exist.
+ * - ``d.getVarFlag("X", flag, expand)``
+ - Returns the value of variable "X". Using "expand=True" expands the
+ value. Returns "None" if either the variable "X" or the named flag does
+ not exist.
+ * - ``d.setVarFlag("X", flag, "value")``
+ - Sets the named flag for variable "X" to "value".
+ * - ``d.appendVarFlag("X", flag, "value")``
+ - Appends "value" to the named flag on the variable "X". Acts like
+ ``d.setVarFlag("X", flag, "value")`` if the named flag does not exist.
+ * - ``d.prependVarFlag("X", flag, "value")``
+ - Prepends "value" to the named flag on the variable "X". Acts like
+ ``d.setVarFlag("X", flag, "value")`` if the named flag does not exist.
+ * - ``d.delVarFlag("X", flag)``
+ - Deletes the named flag on the variable "X" from the datastore.
+ * - ``d.setVarFlags("X", flagsdict)``
+ - Sets the flags specified in the ``flagsdict()``
+ parameter. ``setVarFlags`` does not clear previous flags. Think of this
+ operation as ``addVarFlags``.
+ * - ``d.getVarFlags("X")``
+ - Returns a ``flagsdict`` of the flags for the variable "X". Returns "None"
+ if the variable "X" does not exist.
+ * - ``d.delVarFlags("X")``
+ - Deletes all the flags for the variable "X". Does nothing if the variable
+ "X" does not exist.
+ * - ``d.expand(expression)``
+ - Expands variable references in the specified string
+ expression. References to variables that do not exist are left as is. For
+ example, ``d.expand("foo ${X}")`` expands to the literal string "foo
+ ${X}" if the variable "X" does not exist.
+
+Other Functions
+---------------
+
+You can find many other functions that can be called from Python by
+looking at the source code of the ``bb`` module, which is in
+``bitbake/lib/bb``. For example, ``bitbake/lib/bb/utils.py`` includes
+the commonly used functions ``bb.utils.contains()`` and
+``bb.utils.mkdirhier()``, which come with docstrings.
+
+Extending Python Library Code
+-----------------------------
+
+If you wish to add your own Python library code (e.g. to provide
+functions/classes you can use from Python functions in the metadata)
+you can do so from any layer using the ``addpylib`` directive.
+This directive is typically added to your layer configuration (
+``conf/layer.conf``) although it will be handled in any ``.conf`` file.
+
+Usage is of the form::
+
+ addpylib <directory> <namespace>
+
+Where <directory> specifies the directory to add to the library path.
+The specified <namespace> is imported automatically, and if the imported
+module specifies an attribute named ``BBIMPORTS``, that list of
+sub-modules is iterated and imported too.
+
+Testing and Debugging BitBake Python code
+-----------------------------------------
+
+The OpenEmbedded build system implements a convenient ``pydevshell`` target which
+you can use to access the BitBake datastore and experiment with your own Python
+code. See :yocto_docs:`Using a Python Development Shell
+</dev-manual/python-development-shell.html#using-a-python-development-shell>` in the Yocto
+Project manual for details.
+
+Task Checksums and Setscene
+===========================
+
+BitBake uses checksums (or signatures) along with the setscene to
+determine if a task needs to be run. This section describes the process.
+To help understand how BitBake does this, the section assumes an
+OpenEmbedded metadata-based example.
+
+These checksums are stored in :term:`STAMP`. You can
+examine the checksums using the following BitBake command::
+
+ $ bitbake-dumpsigs
+
+This command returns the signature data in a readable
+format that allows you to examine the inputs used when the OpenEmbedded
+build system generates signatures. For example, using
+``bitbake-dumpsigs`` allows you to examine the ``do_compile`` task's
+"sigdata" for a C application (e.g. ``bash``). Running the command also
+reveals that the "CC" variable is part of the inputs that are hashed.
+Any changes to this variable would invalidate the stamp and cause the
+``do_compile`` task to run.
+
+The following list describes related variables:
+
+- :term:`BB_HASHCHECK_FUNCTION`:
+ Specifies the name of the function to call during the "setscene" part
+ of the task's execution in order to validate the list of task hashes.
+
+- :term:`BB_SETSCENE_DEPVALID`:
+ Specifies a function BitBake calls that determines whether BitBake
+ requires a setscene dependency to be met.
+
+- :term:`BB_TASKHASH`: Within an executing task,
+ this variable holds the hash of the task as returned by the currently
+ enabled signature generator.
+
+- :term:`STAMP`: The base path to create stamp files.
+
+- :term:`STAMPCLEAN`: Again, the base path to
+ create stamp files but can use wildcards for matching a range of
+ files for clean operations.
+
+Wildcard Support in Variables
+=============================
+
+Support for wildcard use in variables varies depending on the context in
+which it is used. For example, some variables and filenames allow
+limited use of wildcards through the "``%``" and "``*``" characters.
+Other variables or names support Python's
+`glob <https://docs.python.org/3/library/glob.html>`_ syntax,
+`fnmatch <https://docs.python.org/3/library/fnmatch.html#module-fnmatch>`_
+syntax, or
+`Regular Expression (re) <https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html>`_
+syntax.
+
+For variables that have wildcard suport, the documentation describes
+which form of wildcard, its use, and its limitations.

- <title>Basic Variable Setting</title>
-
- <para>
- The following example sets <filename>VARIABLE</filename> to
- "value".
- This assignment occurs immediately as the statement is parsed.
- It is a "hard" assignment.
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- VARIABLE = "value"
- </literallayout>
- As expected, if you include leading or trailing spaces as part of
- an assignment, the spaces are retained:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- VARIABLE = " value"
- VARIABLE = "value "
- </literallayout>
- Setting <filename>VARIABLE</filename> to "" sets it to an empty string,
- while setting the variable to " " sets it to a blank space
- (i.e. these are not the same values).
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- VARIABLE = ""
- VARIABLE = " "
- </literallayout>
- </para>
-
- <para>
- You can use single quotes instead of double quotes
- when setting a variable's value.
- Doing so allows you to use values that contain the double
- quote character:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- VARIABLE = 'I have a " in my value'
- </literallayout>
- <note>
- Unlike in Bourne shells, single quotes work identically
- to double quotes in all other ways.
- They do not suppress variable expansions.

- <title>Modifying Existing Variables</title>
-
- <para>
- Sometimes you need to modify existing variables.
- Following are some cases where you might find you want to
- modify an existing variable:
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem><para>
- Customize a recipe that uses the variable.
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>
- Change a variable's default value used in a
- <filename>*.bbclass</filename> file.
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>
- Change the variable in a <filename>*.bbappend</filename>
- file to override the variable in the original recipe.
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>
- Change the variable in a configuration file so that the
- value overrides an existing configuration.
- </para></listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Changing a variable value can sometimes depend on how the
- value was originally assigned and also on the desired
- intent of the change.
- In particular, when you append a value to a variable that
- has a default value, the resulting value might not be what
- you expect.
- In this case, the value you provide might replace the value
- rather than append to the default value.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- If after you have changed a variable's value and something
- unexplained occurs, you can use BitBake to check the actual
- value of the suspect variable.
- You can make these checks for both configuration and recipe
- level changes:
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem><para>
- For configuration changes, use the following:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ bitbake -e
- </literallayout>
- This command displays variable values after the
- configuration files (i.e. <filename>local.conf</filename>,
- <filename>bblayers.conf</filename>,
- <filename>bitbake.conf</filename> and so forth) have
- been parsed.
- <note>
- Variables that are exported to the environment are
- preceded by the string "export" in the command's
- output.
- </note>
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>
- For recipe changes, use the following:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ bitbake <replaceable>recipe</replaceable> -e | grep VARIABLE="
- </literallayout>
- This command checks to see if the variable actually
- makes it into a specific recipe.
- </para></listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- </para>
- </section>
-
- <section id='line-joining'>
- <title>Line Joining</title>
-
- <para>
- Outside of
- <link linkend='functions'>functions</link>, BitBake joins
- any line ending in a backslash character ("\")
- with the following line before parsing statements.
- The most common use for the "\" character is to split variable
- assignments over multiple lines, as in the following example:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- FOO = "bar \
- baz \
- qaz"
- </literallayout>
- Both the "\" character and the newline character
- that follow it are removed when joining lines.
- Thus, no newline characters end up in the value of
- <filename>FOO</filename>.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Consider this additional example where the two
- assignments both assign "barbaz" to
- <filename>FOO</filename>:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- FOO = "barbaz"
-
- FOO = "bar\
- baz"
- </literallayout>
- <note>
- BitBake does not interpret escape sequences like
- "\n" in variable values.
- For these to have an effect, the value must be passed
- to some utility that interprets escape sequences,
- such as <filename>printf</filename> or
- <filename>echo -n</filename>.
- </note>
- </para>
- </section>
-
- <section id='variable-expansion'>
- <title>Variable Expansion</title>
-
- <para>
- Variables can reference the contents of other variables
- using a syntax that is similar to variable expansion in
- Bourne shells.
- The following assignments
- result in A containing "aval" and B evaluating to "preavalpost".
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- A = "aval"
- B = "pre${A}post"
- </literallayout>
- <note>
- Unlike in Bourne shells, the curly braces are mandatory:
- Only <filename>${FOO}</filename> and not
- <filename>$FOO</filename> is recognized as an expansion of
- <filename>FOO</filename>.
- </note>
- The "=" operator does not immediately expand variable
- references in the right-hand side.
- Instead, expansion is deferred until the variable assigned to
- is actually used.
- The result depends on the current values of the referenced
- variables.
- The following example should clarify this behavior:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- A = "${B} baz"
- B = "${C} bar"
- C = "foo"
- *At this point, ${A} equals "foo bar baz"*
- C = "qux"
- *At this point, ${A} equals "qux bar baz"*
- B = "norf"
- *At this point, ${A} equals "norf baz"*
- </literallayout>
- Contrast this behavior with the
- <link linkend='immediate-variable-expansion'>immediate variable expansion</link>
- operator (i.e. ":=").
- </para>
-
- <para>
- If the variable expansion syntax is used on a variable that
- does not exist, the string is kept as is.
- For example, given the following assignment,
- <filename>BAR</filename> expands to the literal string
- "${FOO}" as long as <filename>FOO</filename> does not exist.
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- BAR = "${FOO}"
- </literallayout>
- </para>
- </section>
-
- <section id='setting-a-default-value'>
- <title>Setting a default value (?=)</title>
-
- <para>
- You can use the "?=" operator to achieve a "softer" assignment
- for a variable.
- This type of assignment allows you to define a variable if it
- is undefined when the statement is parsed, but to leave the
- value alone if the variable has a value.
- Here is an example:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- A ?= "aval"
- </literallayout>
- If <filename>A</filename> is set at the time this statement is parsed,
- the variable retains its value.
- However, if <filename>A</filename> is not set,
- the variable is set to "aval".
- <note>
- This assignment is immediate.
- Consequently, if multiple "?=" assignments
- to a single variable exist, the first of those ends up getting
- used.
- </note>
- </para>
- </section>
-
- <section id='setting-a-weak-default-value'>
- <title>Setting a weak default value (??=)</title>
-
- <para>
- It is possible to use a "weaker" assignment than in the
- previous section by using the "??=" operator.
- This assignment behaves identical to "?=" except that the
- assignment is made at the end of the parsing process rather
- than immediately.
- Consequently, when multiple "??=" assignments exist, the last
- one is used.
- Also, any "=" or "?=" assignment will override the value set with
- "??=".
- Here is an example:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- A ??= "somevalue"
- A ??= "someothervalue"
- </literallayout>
- If <filename>A</filename> is set before the above statements are parsed,
- the variable retains its value.
- If <filename>A</filename> is not set,
- the variable is set to "someothervalue".
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Again, this assignment is a "lazy" or "weak" assignment
- because it does not occur until the end
- of the parsing process.
- </para>
- </section>
-
- <section id='immediate-variable-expansion'>
- <title>Immediate variable expansion (:=)</title>
-
- <para>
- The ":=" operator results in a variable's
- contents being expanded immediately,
- rather than when the variable is actually used:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- T = "123"
- A := "${B} ${A} test ${T}"
- T = "456"
- B = "${T} bval"
- C = "cval"
- C := "${C}append"
- </literallayout>
- In this example, <filename>A</filename> contains
- "test 123" because <filename>${B}</filename> and
- <filename>${A}</filename> at the time of parsing are undefined,
- which leaves "test 123".
- And, the variable <filename>C</filename>
- contains "cvalappend" since <filename>${C}</filename> immediately
- expands to "cval".
- </para>
- </section>
-
- <section id='appending-and-prepending'>
- <title>Appending (+=) and prepending (=+) With Spaces</title>
-
- <para>
- Appending and prepending values is common and can be accomplished
- using the "+=" and "=+" operators.
- These operators insert a space between the current
- value and prepended or appended value.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- These operators take immediate effect during parsing.
- Here are some examples:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- B = "bval"
- B += "additionaldata"
- C = "cval"
- C =+ "test"
- </literallayout>
- The variable <filename>B</filename> contains

-
- <para>
- These operators take immediate effect during parsing.
- Here are some examples:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- B = "bval"
- B .= "additionaldata"
- C = "cval"
- C =. "test"

- <title>Appending and Prepending (Override Style Syntax)</title>
-
- <para>
- You can also append and prepend a variable's value
- using an override style syntax.
- When you use this syntax, no spaces are inserted.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- These operators differ from the ":=", ".=", "=.", "+=", and "=+"
- operators in that their effects are applied at variable
- expansion time rather than being immediately applied.
- Here are some examples:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- B = "bval"
- B_append = " additional data"
- C = "cval"
- C_prepend = "additional data "
- D = "dval"
- D_append = "additional data"

- The variable <filename>B</filename> becomes
- "bval additional data" and <filename>C</filename> becomes
- "additional data cval".
- The variable <filename>D</filename> becomes
- "dvaladditional data".
- <note>
- You must control all spacing when you use the
- override syntax.
- </note>
- </para>
-
- <para>
- It is also possible to append and prepend to shell
- functions and BitBake-style Python functions.
- See the

- <title>Removal (Override Style Syntax)</title>
-

- You can remove values from lists using the removal
- override style syntax.
- Specifying a value for removal causes all occurrences of that
- value to be removed from the variable.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- When you use this syntax, BitBake expects one or more strings.
- Surrounding spaces and spacing are preserved.
- Here is an example:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>

- Like "_append" and "_prepend", "_remove"

-
- <section id='override-style-operation-advantages'>
- <title>Override Style Operation Advantages</title>
-
- <para>
- An advantage of the override style operations
- "_append", "_prepend", and "_remove" as compared to the
- "+=" and "=+" operators is that the override style
- operators provide guaranteed operations.
- For example, consider a class <filename>foo.bbclass</filename>
- that needs to add the value "val" to the variable
- <filename>FOO</filename>, and a recipe that uses
- <filename>foo.bbclass</filename> as follows:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- inherit foo
-
- FOO = "initial"
- </literallayout>
- If <filename>foo.bbclass</filename> uses the "+=" operator,
- as follows, then the final value of <filename>FOO</filename>
- will be "initial", which is not what is desired:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- FOO += "val"
- </literallayout>
- If, on the other hand, <filename>foo.bbclass</filename>
- uses the "_append" operator, then the final value of
- <filename>FOO</filename> will be "initial val", as intended:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- FOO_append = " val"
- </literallayout>
- <note>
- It is never necessary to use "+=" together with "_append".
- The following sequence of assignments appends "barbaz" to
- <filename>FOO</filename>:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- FOO_append = "bar"
- FOO_append = "baz"
- </literallayout>
- The only effect of changing the second assignment in the
- previous example to use "+=" would be to add a space before
- "baz" in the appended value (due to how the "+=" operator
- works).
- </note>
- Another advantage of the override style operations is that
- you can combine them with other overrides as described in the
- "<link linkend='conditional-syntax-overrides'>Conditional Syntax (Overrides)</link>"
- section.
- </para>
- </section>
-
- <section id='variable-flag-syntax'>
- <title>Variable Flag Syntax</title>
-
- <para>
- Variable flags are BitBake's implementation of variable properties
- or attributes.
- It is a way of tagging extra information onto a variable.
- You can find more out about variable flags in general in the
- "<link linkend='variable-flags'>Variable Flags</link>"
- section.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- You can define, append, and prepend values to variable flags.
- All the standard syntax operations previously mentioned work
- for variable flags except for override style syntax
- (i.e. "_prepend", "_append", and "_remove").
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Here are some examples showing how to set variable flags:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- FOO[a] = "abc"
- FOO[b] = "123"
- FOO[a] += "456"
- </literallayout>
- The variable <filename>FOO</filename> has two flags:
- <filename>[a]</filename> and <filename>[b]</filename>.
- The flags are immediately set to "abc" and "123", respectively.
- The <filename>[a]</filename> flag becomes "abc 456".
- </para>
-
- <para>
- No need exists to pre-define variable flags.
- You can simply start using them.
- One extremely common application
- is to attach some brief documentation to a BitBake variable as
- follows:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- CACHE[doc] = "The directory holding the cache of the metadata."

- set variables.
- Here is an example:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- DATE = "${@time.strftime('%Y%m%d',time.gmtime())}"
- </literallayout>
- This example results in the <filename>DATE</filename>
- variable being set to the current date.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Probably the most common use of this feature is to extract
- the value of variables from BitBake's internal data dictionary,
- <filename>d</filename>.
- The following lines select the values of a package name
- and its version number, respectively:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- PN = "${@bb.parse.BBHandler.vars_from_file(d.getVar('FILE', False),d)[0] or 'defaultpkgname'}"
- PV = "${@bb.parse.BBHandler.vars_from_file(d.getVar('FILE', False),d)[1] or '1.0'}"
- </literallayout>
- <note>
- Inline Python expressions work just like variable expansions
- insofar as the "=" and ":=" operators are concerned.
- Given the following assignment, <filename>foo()</filename>
- is called each time <filename>FOO</filename> is expanded:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- FOO = "${@foo()}"
- </literallayout>
- Contrast this with the following immediate assignment, where
- <filename>foo()</filename> is only called once, while the
- assignment is parsed:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- FOO := "${@foo()}"
- </literallayout>

- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- export ENV_VARIABLE
- ENV_VARIABLE = "value from the environment"
-
- do_foo() {

- </literallayout>
- <note>
- BitBake does not expand <filename>$ENV_VARIABLE</filename>
- in this case because it lacks the obligatory
- <filename>{}</filename>.
- Rather, <filename>$ENV_VARIABLE</filename> is expanded
- by the shell.
- </note>
- It does not matter whether
- <filename>export ENV_VARIABLE</filename> appears before or
- after assignments to <filename>ENV_VARIABLE</filename>.
- </para>
-

- OVERRIDES = "architecture:os:machine"
- TEST = "default"
- TEST_os = "osspecific"
- TEST_nooverride = "othercondvalue"

- <title>Examples</title>
-
- <para>
- Despite the previous explanations that show the different forms of
- variable definitions, it can be hard to work
- out exactly what happens when variable operators, conditional
- overrides, and unconditional overrides are combined.
- This section presents some common scenarios along
- with explanations for variable interactions that
- typically confuse users.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- There is often confusion concerning the order in which
- overrides and various "append" operators take effect.
- Recall that an append or prepend operation using "_append"
- and "_prepend" does not result in an immediate assignment
- as would "+=", ".=", "=+", or "=.".
- Consider the following example:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- OVERRIDES = "foo"
- A = "Z"
- A_foo_append = "X"
- </literallayout>
- For this case, <filename>A</filename> is
- unconditionally set to "Z" and "X" is
- unconditionally and immediately appended to the variable
- <filename>A_foo</filename>.
- Because overrides have not been applied yet,
- <filename>A_foo</filename> is set to "X" due to the append
- and <filename>A</filename> simply equals "Z".
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Applying overrides, however, changes things.
- Since "foo" is listed in <filename>OVERRIDES</filename>,
- the conditional variable <filename>A</filename> is replaced
- with the "foo" version, which is equal to "X".
- So effectively, <filename>A_foo</filename> replaces <filename>A</filename>.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- This next example changes the order of the override and
- the append:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- OVERRIDES = "foo"
- A = "Z"
- A_append_foo = "X"
- </literallayout>
- For this case, before overrides are handled,
- <filename>A</filename> is set to "Z" and <filename>A_append_foo</filename>
- is set to "X".
- Once the override for "foo" is applied, however,
- <filename>A</filename> gets appended with "X".
- Consequently, <filename>A</filename> becomes "ZX".
- Notice that spaces are not appended.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- This next example has the order of the appends and overrides reversed
- back as in the first example:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- OVERRIDES = "foo"
- A = "Y"
- A_foo_append = "Z"
- A_foo_append = "X"
- </literallayout>
- For this case, before any overrides are resolved,
- <filename>A</filename> is set to "Y" using an immediate assignment.
- After this immediate assignment, <filename>A_foo</filename> is set
- to "Z", and then further appended with
- "X" leaving the variable set to "ZX".
- Finally, applying the override for "foo" results in the conditional
- variable <filename>A</filename> becoming "ZX" (i.e.
- <filename>A</filename> is replaced with <filename>A_foo</filename>).
- </para>
-
- <para>
- This final example mixes in some varying operators:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- A = "1"
- A_append = "2"
- A_append = "3"
- A += "4"
- A .= "5"
- </literallayout>
- For this case, the type of append operators are affecting the
- order of assignments as BitBake passes through the code
- multiple times.
- Initially, <filename>A</filename> is set to "1 45" because
- of the three statements that use immediate operators.
- After these assignments are made, BitBake applies the
- "_append" operations.
- Those operations result in <filename>A</filename> becoming "1 4523".

- <title>Sharing Functionality</title>
-
- <para>
- BitBake allows for metadata sharing through include files
- (<filename>.inc</filename>) and class files
- (<filename>.bbclass</filename>).
- For example, suppose you have a piece of common functionality
- such as a task definition that you want to share between
- more than one recipe.
- In this case, creating a <filename>.bbclass</filename>
- file that contains the common functionality and then using
- the <filename>inherit</filename> directive in your recipes to
- inherit the class would be a common way to share the task.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- This section presents the mechanisms BitBake provides to
- allow you to share functionality between recipes.
- Specifically, the mechanisms include <filename>include</filename>,
- <filename>inherit</filename>, <filename>INHERIT</filename>, and
- <filename>require</filename> directives.
- </para>

- <section id='locating-include-and-class-files'>

- <para>
- BitBake uses the
- <link linkend='var-bb-BBPATH'><filename>BBPATH</filename></link>

- Additionally, BitBake searches the current directory for
- <filename>include</filename> and <filename>require</filename>

- The <filename>BBPATH</filename> variable is analogous to
- the environment variable <filename>PATH</filename>.
- </note>

- <section id='inherit-directive'>
- <title><filename>inherit</filename> Directive</title>
-
- <para>
- When writing a recipe or class file, you can use the
- <filename>inherit</filename> directive to inherit the
- functionality of a class (<filename>.bbclass</filename>).
- BitBake only supports this directive when used within recipe
- and class files (i.e. <filename>.bb</filename> and
- <filename>.bbclass</filename>).
- </para>
-
- <para>
- The <filename>inherit</filename> directive is a rudimentary
- means of specifying functionality contained in class files
- that your recipes require.
- For example, you can easily abstract out the tasks involved in
- building a package that uses Autoconf and Automake and put
- those tasks into a class file and then have your recipe
- inherit that class file.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- As an example, your recipes could use the following directive
- to inherit an <filename>autotools.bbclass</filename> file.
- The class file would contain common functionality for using
- Autotools that could be shared across recipes:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- inherit autotools
- </literallayout>
- In this case, BitBake would search for the directory
- <filename>classes/autotools.bbclass</filename>
- in <filename>BBPATH</filename>.
- <note>
- You can override any values and functions of the
- inherited class within your recipe by doing so
- after the "inherit" statement.
- </note>
- If you want to use the directive to inherit
- multiple classes, separate them with spaces.
- The following example shows how to inherit both the
- <filename>buildhistory</filename> and <filename>rm_work</filename>
- classes:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- inherit buildhistory rm_work
- </literallayout>
- </para>
-
- <para>
- An advantage with the inherit directive as compared to both
- the
- <link linkend='include-directive'>include</link> and
- <link linkend='require-inclusion'>require</link> directives
- is that you can inherit class files conditionally.
- You can accomplish this by using a variable expression
- after the <filename>inherit</filename> statement.
- Here is an example:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- inherit ${VARNAME}
- </literallayout>
- If <filename>VARNAME</filename> is going to be set, it needs
- to be set before the <filename>inherit</filename> statement
- is parsed.
- One way to achieve a conditional inherit in this case is to use
- overrides:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- VARIABLE = ""
- VARIABLE_someoverride = "myclass"
- </literallayout>
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Another method is by using anonymous Python.
- Here is an example:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- python () {
- if condition == value:
- d.setVar('VARIABLE', 'myclass')
- else:
- d.setVar('VARIABLE', '')
- }
- </literallayout>
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Alternatively, you could use an in-line Python expression
- in the following form:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- inherit ${@'classname' if condition else ''}
- inherit ${@functionname(params)}
- </literallayout>
- In all cases, if the expression evaluates to an empty
- string, the statement does not trigger a syntax error
- because it becomes a no-op.

- This configuration directive causes the named

- during parsing.
- As with the <filename>inherit</filename> directive, the
- <filename>.bbclass</filename> file must be located in a
- "classes" subdirectory in one of the directories specified

- <note>
- Because <filename>.conf</filename> files are parsed

- An example BitBake function is:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- python some_python_function () {
- d.setVar("TEXT", "Hello World")
- print d.getVar("TEXT")
- }
- </literallayout>
- Because the Python "bb" and "os" modules are already
- imported, you do not need to import these modules.
- Also in these types of functions, the datastore ("d")
- is a global variable and is always automatically
- available.
- <note>
- Variable expressions (e.g. <filename>${X}</filename>)
- are no longer expanded within Python functions.
- This behavior is intentional in order to allow you
- to freely set variable values to expandable expressions
- without having them expanded prematurely.
- If you do wish to expand a variable within a Python
- function, use <filename>d.getVar("X")</filename>.
- Or, for more complicated expressions, use
- <filename>d.expand()</filename>.

- <section id='anonymous-python-functions'>
- <title>Anonymous Python Functions</title>
-
- <para>
- Sometimes it is useful to set variables or perform
- other operations programmatically during parsing.
- To do this, you can define special Python functions,
- called anonymous Python functions, that run at the
- end of parsing.
- For example, the following conditionally sets a variable
- based on the value of another variable:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- python () {
- if d.getVar('SOMEVAR') == 'value':
- d.setVar('ANOTHERVAR', 'value2')
- }
- </literallayout>
- An equivalent way to mark a function as an anonymous
- function is to give it the name "__anonymous", rather
- than no name.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Anonymous Python functions always run at the end
- of parsing, regardless of where they are defined.
- If a recipe contains many anonymous functions, they
- run in the same order as they are defined within the
- recipe.
- As an example, consider the following snippet:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- python () {
- d.setVar('FOO', 'foo 2')
- }
-
- FOO = "foo 1"
-
- python () {
- d.appendVar('BAR', ' bar 2')
- }
-
- BAR = "bar 1"
- </literallayout>
- The previous example is conceptually equivalent to the
- following snippet:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- FOO = "foo 1"
- BAR = "bar 1"
- FOO = "foo 2"
- BAR += "bar 2"
- </literallayout>
- <filename>FOO</filename> ends up with the value "foo 2",
- and <filename>BAR</filename> with the value "bar 1 bar 2".
- Just as in the second snippet, the values set for the
- variables within the anonymous functions become available
- to tasks, which always run after parsing.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Overrides and override-style operators such as
- "<filename>_append</filename>" are applied before
- anonymous functions run.
- In the following example, <filename>FOO</filename> ends
- up with the value "foo from anonymous":
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- FOO = "foo"
- FOO_append = " from outside"
-
- python () {
- d.setVar("FOO", "foo from anonymous")
- }
- </literallayout>

- <section id='flexible-inheritance-for-class-functions'>
- <title>Flexible Inheritance for Class Functions</title>
-
- <para>
- Through coding techniques and the use of
- <filename>EXPORT_FUNCTIONS</filename>, BitBake supports
- exporting a function from a class such that the
- class function appears as the default implementation
- of the function, but can still be called if a recipe
- inheriting the class needs to define its own version of
- the function.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- To understand the benefits of this feature, consider
- the basic scenario where a class defines a task function
- and your recipe inherits the class.
- In this basic scenario, your recipe inherits the task
- function as defined in the class.
- If desired, your recipe can add to the start and end of the
- function by using the "_prepend" or "_append" operations
- respectively, or it can redefine the function completely.
- However, if it redefines the function, there is
- no means for it to call the class version of the function.
- <filename>EXPORT_FUNCTIONS</filename> provides a mechanism
- that enables the recipe's version of the function to call
- the original version of the function.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- To make use of this technique, you need the following
- things in place:
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem><para>
- The class needs to define the function as follows:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- <replaceable>classname</replaceable><filename>_</filename><replaceable>functionname</replaceable>
- </literallayout>
- For example, if you have a class file
- <filename>bar.bbclass</filename> and a function named
- <filename>do_foo</filename>, the class must define the function
- as follows:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- bar_do_foo
- </literallayout>
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>
- The class needs to contain the <filename>EXPORT_FUNCTIONS</filename>
- statement as follows:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- EXPORT_FUNCTIONS <replaceable>functionname</replaceable>
- </literallayout>
- For example, continuing with the same example, the
- statement in the <filename>bar.bbclass</filename> would be
- as follows:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- EXPORT_FUNCTIONS do_foo
- </literallayout>
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>
- You need to call the function appropriately from within your
- recipe.
- Continuing with the same example, if your recipe
- needs to call the class version of the function,
- it should call <filename>bar_do_foo</filename>.
- Assuming <filename>do_foo</filename> was a shell function
- and <filename>EXPORT_FUNCTIONS</filename> was used as above,
- the recipe's function could conditionally call the
- class version of the function as follows:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- do_foo() {
- if [ somecondition ] ; then
- bar_do_foo
- else
- # Do something else
- fi
- }
- </literallayout>
- To call your modified version of the function as defined
- in your recipe, call it as <filename>do_foo</filename>.
- </para></listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- With these conditions met, your single recipe
- can freely choose between the original function
- as defined in the class file and the modified function in your recipe.
- If you do not set up these conditions, you are limited to using one function
- or the other.

- <section id='tasks'>
- <title>Tasks</title>
-
- <para>
- Tasks are BitBake execution units that make up the
- steps that BitBake can run for a given recipe.
- Tasks are only supported in recipes and classes
- (i.e. in <filename>.bb</filename> files and files
- included or inherited from <filename>.bb</filename>
- files).
- By convention, tasks have names that start with "do_".
- </para>

- <section id='promoting-a-function-to-a-task'>

-
- <para>
- Tasks are either
- <link linkend='shell-functions'>shell functions</link> or
- <link linkend='bitbake-style-python-functions'>BitBake-style Python functions</link>
- that have been promoted to tasks by using the
- <filename>addtask</filename> command.
- The <filename>addtask</filename> command can also
- optionally describe dependencies between the
- task and other tasks.
- Here is an example that shows how to define a task
- and declare some dependencies:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- python do_printdate () {
- import time
- print time.strftime('%Y%m%d', time.gmtime())
- }
- addtask printdate after do_fetch before do_build
- </literallayout>
- The first argument to <filename>addtask</filename>
- is the name of the function to promote to
- a task.
- If the name does not start with "do_", "do_" is
- implicitly added, which enforces the convention that
- all task names start with "do_".
- </para>
-
- <para>
- In the previous example, the
- <filename>do_printdate</filename> task becomes a
- dependency of the <filename>do_build</filename>
- task, which is the default task (i.e. the task run by
- the <filename>bitbake</filename> command unless
- another task is specified explicitly).
- Additionally, the <filename>do_printdate</filename>
- task becomes dependent upon the
- <filename>do_fetch</filename> task.
- Running the <filename>do_build</filename> task
- results in the <filename>do_printdate</filename>
- task running first.
- <note>
- If you try out the previous example, you might see that
- the <filename>do_printdate</filename> task is only run
- the first time you build the recipe with
- the <filename>bitbake</filename> command.
- This is because BitBake considers the task "up-to-date"
- after that initial run.
- If you want to force the task to always be rerun for
- experimentation purposes, you can make BitBake always
- consider the task "out-of-date" by using the
- <filename>[</filename><link linkend='variable-flags'><filename>nostamp</filename></link><filename>]</filename>
- variable flag, as follows:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- do_printdate[nostamp] = "1"
- </literallayout>
- You can also explicitly run the task and provide the
- <filename>-f</filename> option as follows:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ bitbake <replaceable>recipe</replaceable> -c printdate -f
- </literallayout>
- When manually selecting a task to run with the
- <filename>bitbake</filename>&nbsp;<replaceable>recipe</replaceable>&nbsp;<filename>-c</filename>&nbsp;<replaceable>task</replaceable>
- command, you can omit the "do_" prefix as part of the
- task name.
- </note>
- </para>
-
- <para>
- You might wonder about the practical effects of using
- <filename>addtask</filename> without specifying any
- dependencies as is done in the following example:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- addtask printdate
- </literallayout>
- In this example, assuming dependencies have not been
- added through some other means, the only way to run
- the task is by explicitly selecting it with
- <filename>bitbake</filename>&nbsp;<replaceable>recipe</replaceable>&nbsp;<filename>-c printdate</filename>.
- You can use the
- <filename>do_listtasks</filename> task to list all tasks
- defined in a recipe as shown in the following example:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ bitbake <replaceable>recipe</replaceable> -c listtasks

- <section id='deleting-a-task'>
- <title>Deleting a Task</title>
-
- <para>
- As well as being able to add tasks, you can delete them.
- Simply use the <filename>deltask</filename> command to
- delete a task.
- For example, to delete the example task used in the previous
- sections, you would use:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- deltask printdate
- </literallayout>
- If you delete a task using the <filename>deltask</filename>
- command and the task has dependencies, the dependencies are
- not reconnected.
- For example, suppose you have three tasks named
- <filename>do_a</filename>, <filename>do_b</filename>, and
- <filename>do_c</filename>.
- Furthermore, <filename>do_c</filename> is dependent on
- <filename>do_b</filename>, which in turn is dependent on
- <filename>do_a</filename>.
- Given this scenario, if you use <filename>deltask</filename>
- to delete <filename>do_b</filename>, the implicit dependency
- relationship between <filename>do_c</filename> and
- <filename>do_a</filename> through <filename>do_b</filename>
- no longer exists, and <filename>do_c</filename> dependencies
- are not updated to include <filename>do_a</filename>.
- Thus, <filename>do_c</filename> is free to run before
- <filename>do_a</filename>.
- </para>

- If you want dependencies such as these to remain intact, use

- <title>Passing Information Into the Build Task Environment</title>
-
- <para>
- When running a task, BitBake tightly controls the shell execution
- environment of the build tasks to make
- sure unwanted contamination from the build machine cannot
- influence the build.
- <note>
- By default, BitBake cleans the environment to include only those
- things exported or listed in its whitelist to ensure that the build
- environment is reproducible and consistent.
- You can prevent this "cleaning" by setting the
- <link linkend='var-bb-BB_PRESERVE_ENV'><filename>BB_PRESERVE_ENV</filename></link>
- variable.
- </note>
- Consequently, if you do want something to get passed into the
- build task environment, you must take these two steps:
- <orderedlist>
- <listitem><para>
- Tell BitBake to load what you want from the environment
- into the datastore.
- You can do so through the
- <link linkend='var-bb-BB_ENV_WHITELIST'><filename>BB_ENV_WHITELIST</filename></link>
- and
- <link linkend='var-bb-BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE'><filename>BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE</filename></link>
- variables.
- For example, assume you want to prevent the build system from
- accessing your <filename>$HOME/.ccache</filename>
- directory.
- The following command "whitelists" the environment variable
- <filename>CCACHE_DIR</filename> causing BitBack to allow that
- variable into the datastore:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- export BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE="$BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE CCACHE_DIR"
- </literallayout></para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>
- Tell BitBake to export what you have loaded into the
- datastore to the task environment of every running task.
- Loading something from the environment into the datastore
- (previous step) only makes it available in the datastore.
- To export it to the task environment of every running task,
- use a command similar to the following in your local configuration
- file <filename>local.conf</filename> or your
- distribution configuration file:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- export CCACHE_DIR
- </literallayout>
- <note>
- A side effect of the previous steps is that BitBake
- records the variable as a dependency of the build process
- in things like the setscene checksums.
- If doing so results in unnecessary rebuilds of tasks, you can
- whitelist the variable so that the setscene code
- ignores the dependency when it creates checksums.
- </note></para></listitem>

- Sometimes, it is useful to be able to obtain information

- <title>Events</title>
-
- <para>
- BitBake allows installation of event handlers within recipe
- and class files.
- Events are triggered at certain points during operation, such
- as the beginning of operation against a given recipe
- (i.e. <filename>*.bb</filename>), the start of a given task,
- a task failure, a task success, and so forth.
- The intent is to make it easy to do things like email
- notification on build failures.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Following is an example event handler that prints the name
- of the event and the content of the
- <filename>FILE</filename> variable:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- addhandler myclass_eventhandler
- python myclass_eventhandler() {
- from bb.event import getName
- print("The name of the Event is %s" % getName(e))
- print("The file we run for is %s" % d.getVar('FILE'))
- }
- myclass_eventhandler[eventmask] = "bb.event.BuildStarted bb.event.BuildCompleted"
- </literallayout>
- In the previous example, an eventmask has been set so that
- the handler only sees the "BuildStarted" and "BuildCompleted"
- events.
- This event handler gets called every time an event matching
- the eventmask is triggered.
- A global variable "e" is defined, which represents the current
- event.
- With the <filename>getName(e)</filename> method, you can get
- the name of the triggered event.
- The global datastore is available as "d".
- In legacy code, you might see "e.data" used to get the datastore.
- However, realize that "e.data" is deprecated and you should use
- "d" going forward.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- The context of the datastore is appropriate to the event
- in question.
- For example, "BuildStarted" and "BuildCompleted" events run
- before any tasks are executed so would be in the global
- configuration datastore namespace.
- No recipe-specific metadata exists in that namespace.
- The "BuildStarted" and "BuildCompleted" events also run in
- the main cooker/server process rather than any worker context.
- Thus, any changes made to the datastore would be seen by other
- cooker/server events within the current build but not seen
- outside of that build or in any worker context.
- Task events run in the actual tasks in question consequently
- have recipe-specific and task-specific contents.
- These events run in the worker context and are discarded at
- the end of task execution.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- During a standard build, the following common events might
- occur.
- The following events are the most common kinds of events that
- most metadata might have an interest in viewing:

- You can see multiple such events when each of the
- workers parse the base configuration or if the server
- changes configuration and reparses.
- Any given datastore only has one such event executed
- against it, however.
- If
- <link linkende='var-bb-BB_INVALIDCONF'><filename>BB_INVALIDCONF</filename></link>

- <title>Variants - Class Extension Mechanism</title>
-
- <para>
- BitBake supports two features that facilitate creating
- from a single recipe file multiple incarnations of that
- recipe file where all incarnations are buildable.
- These features are enabled through the
- <link linkend='var-bb-BBCLASSEXTEND'><filename>BBCLASSEXTEND</filename></link>
- and
- <link linkend='var-bb-BBVERSIONS'><filename>BBVERSIONS</filename></link>
- variables.
- <note>
- The mechanism for this class extension is extremely
- specific to the implementation.
- Usually, the recipe's
- <link linkend='var-bb-PROVIDES'><filename>PROVIDES</filename></link>,
- <link linkend='var-bb-PN'><filename>PN</filename></link>, and
- <link linkend='var-bb-DEPENDS'><filename>DEPENDS</filename></link>
- variables would need to be modified by the extension class.
- For specific examples, see the OE-Core
- <filename>native</filename>, <filename>nativesdk</filename>,
- and <filename>multilib</filename> classes.
- </note>
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem><para><emphasis><filename>BBCLASSEXTEND</filename>:</emphasis>
- This variable is a space separated list of classes used to "extend" the
- recipe for each variant.
- Here is an example that results in a second incarnation of the current
- recipe being available.
- This second incarnation will have the "native" class inherited.
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- BBCLASSEXTEND = "native"
- </literallayout></para></listitem>
- <listitem><para><emphasis><filename>BBVERSIONS</filename>:</emphasis>
- This variable allows a single recipe to build multiple versions of a
- project from a single recipe file.
- You can also specify conditional metadata
- (using the
- <link linkend='var-bb-OVERRIDES'><filename>OVERRIDES</filename></link>
- mechanism) for a single version, or an optionally named range of versions.
- Here is an example:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- BBVERSIONS = "1.0 2.0 git"
- SRC_URI_git = "git://someurl/somepath.git"
-
- BBVERSIONS = "1.0.[0-6]:1.0.0+ \ 1.0.[7-9]:1.0.7+"
- SRC_URI_append_1.0.7+ = "file://some_patch_which_the_new_versions_need.patch;patch=1"
- </literallayout>
- The name of the range defaults to the original version of the
- recipe.
- For example, in OpenEmbedded, the recipe file
- <filename>foo_1.0.0+.bb</filename> creates a default name range
- of <filename>1.0.0+</filename>.
- This is useful because the range name is not only placed
- into overrides, but it is also made available for the metadata to use
- in the variable that defines the base recipe versions for use in
- <filename>file://</filename> search paths
- (<link linkend='var-bb-FILESPATH'><filename>FILESPATH</filename></link>).

- <title>Dependencies</title>
-
- <para>
- To allow for efficient parallel processing, BitBake handles
- dependencies at the task level.
- Dependencies can exist both between tasks within a single recipe
- and between tasks in different recipes.
- Following are examples of each:
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem><para>For tasks within a single recipe, a

- provided by the other recipe are available.
- </para></listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- </para>
-
- <para>
- This section describes several ways to declare dependencies.
- Remember, even though dependencies are declared in different ways, they

- </para>
-
- <section id='dependencies-internal-to-the-bb-file'>
- <title>Dependencies Internal to the <filename>.bb</filename> File</title>
-
- <para>
- BitBake uses the <filename>addtask</filename> directive
- to manage dependencies that are internal to a given recipe
- file.
- You can use the <filename>addtask</filename> directive to
- indicate when a task is dependent on other tasks or when
- other tasks depend on that recipe.
- Here is an example:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- addtask printdate after do_fetch before do_build
- </literallayout>
- In this example, the <filename>do_printdate</filename>
- task depends on the completion of the
- <filename>do_fetch</filename> task, and the
- <filename>do_build</filename> task depends on the
- completion of the <filename>do_printdate</filename>
- task.
- <note><para>
- For a task to run, it must be a direct or indirect
- dependency of some other task that is scheduled to

- Be aware that <filename>do_mytask</filename> still only
- runs if its <link linkend='checksums'>input checksum</link>
- has changed since the last time it was run.
- Changes to the input checksum of
- <filename>do_mytask</filename> also indirectly cause
- <filename>do_configure</filename> to run.
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>
- The directive
- <filename>addtask mytask after do_configure</filename>
- by itself never causes <filename>do_mytask</filename>

- <filename>do_mytask</filename> can still be run manually
- as follows:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ bitbake <replaceable>recipe</replaceable> -c mytask
- </literallayout>
- Declaring <filename>do_mytask</filename> as a dependency
- of some other task that is scheduled to run also causes

- BitBake uses the

- The <filename>PACKAGES</filename> variable lists runtime
- packages.
- Each of those packages can have <filename>RDEPENDS</filename> and

- <section id='recursive-dependencies'>
- <title>Recursive Dependencies</title>
-
- <para>
- BitBake uses the <filename>[recrdeptask]</filename> flag to manage
- recursive task dependencies.
- BitBake looks through the build-time and runtime
- dependencies of the current recipe, looks through
- the task's inter-task
- dependencies, and then adds dependencies for the
- listed task.
- Once BitBake has accomplished this, it recursively works through
- the dependencies of those tasks.
- Iterative passes continue until all dependencies are discovered
- and added.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- The <filename>[recrdeptask]</filename> flag is most commonly
- used in high-level
- recipes that need to wait for some task to finish "globally".
- For example, <filename>image.bbclass</filename> has the following:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- do_rootfs[recrdeptask] += "do_packagedata"
- </literallayout>
- This statement says that the <filename>do_packagedata</filename>
- task of the current recipe and all recipes reachable
- (by way of dependencies) from the
- image recipe must run before the <filename>do_rootfs</filename>
- task can run.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- You might want to not only have BitBake look for
- dependencies of those tasks, but also have BitBake look
- for build-time and runtime dependencies of the dependent
- tasks as well.
- If that is the case, you need to reference the task name
- itself in the task list:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- do_a[recrdeptask] = "do_a do_b"
- </literallayout>
- </para>
- </section>
-
- <section id='inter-task-dependencies'>
- <title>Inter-Task Dependencies</title>
-
- <para>
- BitBake uses the <filename>[depends]</filename>
- flag in a more generic form
- to manage inter-task dependencies.
- This more generic form allows for inter-dependency
- checks for specific tasks rather than checks for
- the data in <filename>DEPENDS</filename>.
- Here is an example:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- do_patch[depends] = "quilt-native:do_populate_sysroot"
- </literallayout>
- In this example, the <filename>do_populate_sysroot</filename>
- task of the target <filename>quilt-native</filename>
- must have completed before the
- <filename>do_patch</filename> task can execute.
- </para>

- <title>Task Checksums and Setscene</title>
-
- <para>
- BitBake uses checksums (or signatures) along with the setscene
- to determine if a task needs to be run.
- This section describes the process.
- To help understand how BitBake does this, the section assumes an
- OpenEmbedded metadata-based example.

- <para>
- These checksums are stored in
- <link linkend='var-bb-STAMP'><filename>STAMP</filename></link>.
- You can examine the checksums using the following BitBake command:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ bitbake-dumpsigs
- </literallayout>
- This command returns the signature data in a readable format
- that allows you to examine the inputs used when the
- OpenEmbedded build system generates signatures.
- For example, using <filename>bitbake-dumpsigs</filename>
- allows you to examine the <filename>do_compile</filename>
- task's “sigdata†for a C application (e.g.
- <filename>bash</filename>).
- Running the command also reveals that the “CC†variable is part of
- the inputs that are hashed.
- Any changes to this variable would invalidate the stamp and

+================
+Variable Context
+================
+
+|
+
+Variables might only have an impact or can be used in certain contexts. Some
+should only be used in global files like ``.conf``, while others are intended only
+for local files like ``.bb``. This chapter aims to describe some important variable
+contexts.
+
+.. _ref-varcontext-configuration:
+
+BitBake's own configuration
+===========================
+
+Variables starting with ``BB_`` usually configure the behaviour of BitBake itself.
+For example, one could configure:
+
+- System resources, like disk space to be used (:term:`BB_DISKMON_DIRS`),
+ or the number of tasks to be run in parallel by BitBake (:term:`BB_NUMBER_THREADS`).
+
+- How the fetchers shall behave, e.g., :term:`BB_FETCH_PREMIRRORONLY` is used
+ by BitBake to determine if BitBake's fetcher shall search only
+ :term:`PREMIRRORS` for files.
+
+Those variables are usually configured globally.
+
+BitBake configuration
+=====================
+
+There are variables:
+
+- Like :term:`B` or :term:`T`, that are used to specify directories used by
+ BitBake during the build of a particular recipe. Those variables are
+ specified in ``bitbake.conf``. Some, like :term:`B`, are quite often
+ overwritten in recipes.
+
+- Starting with ``FAKEROOT``, to configure how the ``fakeroot`` command is
+ handled. Those are usually set by ``bitbake.conf`` and might get adapted in a
+ ``bbclass``.
+
+- Detailing where BitBake will store and fetch information from, for
+ data reuse between build runs like :term:`CACHE`, :term:`DL_DIR` or
+ :term:`PERSISTENT_DIR`. Those are usually global.
+
+
+Layers and files
+================
+
+Variables starting with ``LAYER`` configure how BitBake handles layers.
+Additionally, variables starting with ``BB`` configure how layers and files are
+handled. For example:
+
+- :term:`LAYERDEPENDS` is used to configure on which layers a given layer
+ depends.
+
+- The configured layers are contained in :term:`BBLAYERS` and files in
+ :term:`BBFILES`.
+
+Those variables are often used in the files ``layer.conf`` and ``bblayers.conf``.
+
+Recipes and packages
+====================
+
+Variables handling recipes and packages can be split into:
+
+- :term:`PN`, :term:`PV` or :term:`PF` for example, contain information about
+ the name or revision of a recipe or package. Usually, the default set in
+ ``bitbake.conf`` is used, but those are from time to time overwritten in
+ recipes.
+
+- :term:`SUMMARY`, :term:`DESCRIPTION`, :term:`LICENSE` or :term:`HOMEPAGE`
+ contain the expected information and should be set specifically for every
+ recipe.
+
+- In recipes, variables are also used to control build and runtime
+ dependencies between recipes/packages with other recipes/packages. The
+ most common should be: :term:`PROVIDES`, :term:`RPROVIDES`, :term:`DEPENDS`,
+ and :term:`RDEPENDS`.
+
+- There are further variables starting with ``SRC`` that specify the sources in
+ a recipe like :term:`SRC_URI` or :term:`SRCDATE`. Those are also usually set
+ in recipes.
+
+- Which version or provider of a recipe should be given preference when
+ multiple recipes would provide the same item, is controlled by variables
+ starting with ``PREFERRED_``. Those are normally set in the configuration
+ files of a ``MACHINE`` or ``DISTRO``.

+==================
+Variables Glossary
+==================
+
+|
+
+This chapter lists common variables used by BitBake and gives an
+overview of their function and contents.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Following are some points regarding the variables listed in this
+ glossary:
+
+ - The variables listed in this glossary are specific to BitBake.
+ Consequently, the descriptions are limited to that context.
+
+ - Also, variables exist in other systems that use BitBake (e.g. The
+ Yocto Project and OpenEmbedded) that have names identical to those
+ found in this glossary. For such cases, the variables in those
+ systems extend the functionality of the variable as it is
+ described here in this glossary.
+
+.. glossary::
+ :sorted:
+
+ :term:`ASSUME_PROVIDED`
+ Lists recipe names (:term:`PN` values) BitBake does not
+ attempt to build. Instead, BitBake assumes these recipes have already
+ been built.
+
+ In OpenEmbedded-Core, :term:`ASSUME_PROVIDED` mostly specifies native
+ tools that should not be built. An example is ``git-native``, which
+ when specified allows for the Git binary from the host to be used
+ rather than building ``git-native``.
+
+ :term:`AZ_SAS`
+ Azure Storage Shared Access Signature, when using the
+ :ref:`Azure Storage fetcher <bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-fetching:fetchers>`
+ This variable can be defined to be used by the fetcher to authenticate
+ and gain access to non-public artifacts::
+
+ AZ_SAS = ""se=2021-01-01&sp=r&sv=2018-11-09&sr=c&skoid=<skoid>&sig=<signature>""
+
+ For more information see Microsoft's Azure Storage documentation at
+ https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/common/storage-sas-overview
+
+
+ :term:`B`
+ The directory in which BitBake executes functions during a recipe's
+ build process.
+
+ :term:`BB_ALLOWED_NETWORKS`
+ Specifies a space-delimited list of hosts that the fetcher is allowed
+ to use to obtain the required source code. Following are
+ considerations surrounding this variable:
+
+ - This host list is only used if
+ :term:`BB_NO_NETWORK` is either not set or
+ set to "0".
+
+ - Limited support for the "``*``" wildcard character for matching
+ against the beginning of host names exists. For example, the
+ following setting matches ``git.gnu.org``, ``ftp.gnu.org``, and
+ ``foo.git.gnu.org``. ::
+
+ BB_ALLOWED_NETWORKS = "\*.gnu.org"
+
+ .. important::
+
+ The use of the "``*``" character only works at the beginning of
+ a host name and it must be isolated from the remainder of the
+ host name. You cannot use the wildcard character in any other
+ location of the name or combined with the front part of the
+ name.
+
+ For example, ``*.foo.bar`` is supported, while ``*aa.foo.bar``
+ is not.
+
+ - Mirrors not in the host list are skipped and logged in debug.
+
+ - Attempts to access networks not in the host list cause a failure.
+
+ Using :term:`BB_ALLOWED_NETWORKS` in conjunction with
+ :term:`PREMIRRORS` is very useful. Adding the
+ host you want to use to :term:`PREMIRRORS` results in the source code
+ being fetched from an allowed location and avoids raising an error
+ when a host that is not allowed is in a
+ :term:`SRC_URI` statement. This is because the
+ fetcher does not attempt to use the host listed in :term:`SRC_URI` after
+ a successful fetch from the :term:`PREMIRRORS` occurs.
+
+ :term:`BB_BASEHASH_IGNORE_VARS`
+ Lists variables that are excluded from checksum and dependency data.
+ Variables that are excluded can therefore change without affecting
+ the checksum mechanism. A common example would be the variable for
+ the path of the build. BitBake's output should not (and usually does
+ not) depend on the directory in which it was built.
+
+ :term:`BB_CACHEDIR`
+ Specifies the code parser cache directory (distinct from :term:`CACHE`
+ and :term:`PERSISTENT_DIR` although they can be set to the same value
+ if desired). The default value is "${TOPDIR}/cache".
+
+ :term:`BB_CHECK_SSL_CERTS`
+ Specifies if SSL certificates should be checked when fetching. The default
+ value is ``1`` and certificates are not checked if the value is set to ``0``.
+
+ :term:`BB_HASH_CODEPARSER_VALS`
+ Specifies values for variables to use when populating the codeparser cache.
+ This can be used selectively to set dummy values for variables to avoid
+ the codeparser cache growing on every parse. Variables that would typically
+ be included are those where the value is not significant for where the
+ codeparser cache is used (i.e. when calculating variable dependencies for
+ code fragments.) The value is space-separated without quoting values, for
+ example::
+
+ BB_HASH_CODEPARSER_VALS = "T=/ WORKDIR=/ DATE=1234 TIME=1234"
+
+ :term:`BB_CONSOLELOG`
+ Specifies the path to a log file into which BitBake's user interface
+ writes output during the build.
+
+ :term:`BB_CURRENTTASK`
+ Contains the name of the currently running task. The name does not
+ include the ``do_`` prefix.
+
+ :term:`BB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY`
+ Defines how BitBake handles situations where an append file
+ (``.bbappend``) has no corresponding recipe file (``.bb``). This
+ condition often occurs when layers get out of sync (e.g. ``oe-core``
+ bumps a recipe version and the old recipe no longer exists and the
+ other layer has not been updated to the new version of the recipe
+ yet).
+
+ The default fatal behavior is safest because it is the sane reaction
+ given something is out of sync. It is important to realize when your
+ changes are no longer being applied.
+
+ :term:`BB_DEFAULT_TASK`
+ The default task to use when none is specified (e.g. with the ``-c``
+ command line option). The task name specified should not include the
+ ``do_`` prefix.
+
+ :term:`BB_DEFAULT_UMASK`
+ The default umask to apply to tasks if specified and no task specific
+ umask flag is set.
+
+ :term:`BB_DISKMON_DIRS`
+ Monitors disk space and available inodes during the build and allows
+ you to control the build based on these parameters.
+
+ Disk space monitoring is disabled by default. When setting this
+ variable, use the following form::
+
+ BB_DISKMON_DIRS = "<action>,<dir>,<threshold> [...]"
+
+ where:
+
+ <action> is:
+ HALT: Immediately halt the build when
+ a threshold is broken.
+ STOPTASKS: Stop the build after the currently
+ executing tasks have finished when
+ a threshold is broken.
+ WARN: Issue a warning but continue the
+ build when a threshold is broken.
+ Subsequent warnings are issued as
+ defined by the
+ BB_DISKMON_WARNINTERVAL variable,
+ which must be defined.
+
+ <dir> is:
+ Any directory you choose. You can specify one or
+ more directories to monitor by separating the
+ groupings with a space. If two directories are
+ on the same device, only the first directory
+ is monitored.
+
+ <threshold> is:
+ Either the minimum available disk space,
+ the minimum number of free inodes, or
+ both. You must specify at least one. To
+ omit one or the other, simply omit the value.
+ Specify the threshold using G, M, K for Gbytes,
+ Mbytes, and Kbytes, respectively. If you do
+ not specify G, M, or K, Kbytes is assumed by
+ default. Do not use GB, MB, or KB.
+
+ Here are some examples::
+
+ BB_DISKMON_DIRS = "HALT,${TMPDIR},1G,100K WARN,${SSTATE_DIR},1G,100K"
+ BB_DISKMON_DIRS = "STOPTASKS,${TMPDIR},1G"
+ BB_DISKMON_DIRS = "HALT,${TMPDIR},,100K"
+
+ The first example works only if you also set the
+ :term:`BB_DISKMON_WARNINTERVAL`
+ variable. This example causes the build system to immediately halt
+ when either the disk space in ``${TMPDIR}`` drops below 1 Gbyte or
+ the available free inodes drops below 100 Kbytes. Because two
+ directories are provided with the variable, the build system also
+ issues a warning when the disk space in the ``${SSTATE_DIR}``
+ directory drops below 1 Gbyte or the number of free inodes drops
+ below 100 Kbytes. Subsequent warnings are issued during intervals as
+ defined by the :term:`BB_DISKMON_WARNINTERVAL` variable.
+
+ The second example stops the build after all currently executing
+ tasks complete when the minimum disk space in the ``${TMPDIR}``
+ directory drops below 1 Gbyte. No disk monitoring occurs for the free
+ inodes in this case.
+
+ The final example immediately halts the build when the number of
+ free inodes in the ``${TMPDIR}`` directory drops below 100 Kbytes. No
+ disk space monitoring for the directory itself occurs in this case.
+
+ :term:`BB_DISKMON_WARNINTERVAL`
+ Defines the disk space and free inode warning intervals.
+
+ If you are going to use the :term:`BB_DISKMON_WARNINTERVAL` variable, you
+ must also use the :term:`BB_DISKMON_DIRS`
+ variable and define its action as "WARN". During the build,
+ subsequent warnings are issued each time disk space or number of free
+ inodes further reduces by the respective interval.
+
+ If you do not provide a :term:`BB_DISKMON_WARNINTERVAL` variable and you
+ do use :term:`BB_DISKMON_DIRS` with the "WARN" action, the disk
+ monitoring interval defaults to the following:
+ BB_DISKMON_WARNINTERVAL = "50M,5K"
+
+ When specifying the variable in your configuration file, use the
+ following form::
+
+ BB_DISKMON_WARNINTERVAL = "<disk_space_interval>,<disk_inode_interval>"
+
+ where:
+
+ <disk_space_interval> is:
+ An interval of memory expressed in either
+ G, M, or K for Gbytes, Mbytes, or Kbytes,
+ respectively. You cannot use GB, MB, or KB.
+
+ <disk_inode_interval> is:
+ An interval of free inodes expressed in either
+ G, M, or K for Gbytes, Mbytes, or Kbytes,
+ respectively. You cannot use GB, MB, or KB.
+
+ Here is an example::
+
+ BB_DISKMON_DIRS = "WARN,${SSTATE_DIR},1G,100K"
+ BB_DISKMON_WARNINTERVAL = "50M,5K"
+
+ These variables cause BitBake to
+ issue subsequent warnings each time the available disk space further
+ reduces by 50 Mbytes or the number of free inodes further reduces by
+ 5 Kbytes in the ``${SSTATE_DIR}`` directory. Subsequent warnings
+ based on the interval occur each time a respective interval is
+ reached beyond the initial warning (i.e. 1 Gbytes and 100 Kbytes).
+
+ :term:`BB_ENV_PASSTHROUGH`
+ Specifies the internal list of variables to allow through from
+ the external environment into BitBake's datastore. If the value of
+ this variable is not specified (which is the default), the following
+ list is used: :term:`BBPATH`, :term:`BB_PRESERVE_ENV`,
+ :term:`BB_ENV_PASSTHROUGH`, and :term:`BB_ENV_PASSTHROUGH_ADDITIONS`.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ You must set this variable in the external environment in order
+ for it to work.
+
+ :term:`BB_ENV_PASSTHROUGH_ADDITIONS`
+ Specifies an additional set of variables to allow through from the
+ external environment into BitBake's datastore. This list of variables
+ are on top of the internal list set in
+ :term:`BB_ENV_PASSTHROUGH`.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ You must set this variable in the external environment in order
+ for it to work.
+
+ :term:`BB_FETCH_PREMIRRORONLY`
+ When set to "1", causes BitBake's fetcher module to only search
+ :term:`PREMIRRORS` for files. BitBake will not
+ search the main :term:`SRC_URI` or
+ :term:`MIRRORS`.
+
+ :term:`BB_FILENAME`
+ Contains the filename of the recipe that owns the currently running
+ task. For example, if the ``do_fetch`` task that resides in the
+ ``my-recipe.bb`` is executing, the :term:`BB_FILENAME` variable contains
+ "/foo/path/my-recipe.bb".
+
+ :term:`BB_GENERATE_MIRROR_TARBALLS`
+ Causes tarballs of the Git repositories, including the Git metadata,
+ to be placed in the :term:`DL_DIR` directory. Anyone
+ wishing to create a source mirror would want to enable this variable.
+
+ For performance reasons, creating and placing tarballs of the Git
+ repositories is not the default action by BitBake. ::
+
+ BB_GENERATE_MIRROR_TARBALLS = "1"
+
+ :term:`BB_GENERATE_SHALLOW_TARBALLS`
+ Setting this variable to "1" when :term:`BB_GIT_SHALLOW` is also set to
+ "1" causes bitbake to generate shallow mirror tarballs when fetching git
+ repositories. The number of commits included in the shallow mirror
+ tarballs is controlled by :term:`BB_GIT_SHALLOW_DEPTH`.
+
+ If both :term:`BB_GIT_SHALLOW` and :term:`BB_GENERATE_MIRROR_TARBALLS` are
+ enabled, bitbake will generate shallow mirror tarballs by default for git
+ repositories. This separate variable exists so that shallow tarball
+ generation can be enabled without needing to also enable normal mirror
+ generation if it is not desired.
+
+ For example usage, see :term:`BB_GIT_SHALLOW`.
+
+ :term:`BB_GIT_SHALLOW`
+ Setting this variable to "1" enables the support for fetching, using and
+ generating mirror tarballs of `shallow git repositories <https://riptutorial.com/git/example/4584/shallow-clone>`_.
+ The external `git-make-shallow <https://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/tree/bin/git-make-shallow>`_
+ script is used for shallow mirror tarball creation.
+
+ When :term:`BB_GIT_SHALLOW` is enabled, bitbake will attempt to fetch a shallow
+ mirror tarball. If the shallow mirror tarball cannot be fetched, it will
+ try to fetch the full mirror tarball and use that.
+
+ When a mirror tarball is not available, a full git clone will be performed
+ regardless of whether this variable is set or not. Support for shallow
+ clones is not currently implemented as git does not directly support
+ shallow cloning a particular git commit hash (it only supports cloning
+ from a tag or branch reference).
+
+ See also :term:`BB_GIT_SHALLOW_DEPTH` and
+ :term:`BB_GENERATE_SHALLOW_TARBALLS`.
+
+ Example usage::
+
+ BB_GIT_SHALLOW ?= "1"
+
+ # Keep only the top commit
+ BB_GIT_SHALLOW_DEPTH ?= "1"
+
+ # This defaults to enabled if both BB_GIT_SHALLOW and
+ # BB_GENERATE_MIRROR_TARBALLS are enabled
+ BB_GENERATE_SHALLOW_TARBALLS ?= "1"
+
+ :term:`BB_GIT_SHALLOW_DEPTH`
+ When used with :term:`BB_GENERATE_SHALLOW_TARBALLS`, this variable sets
+ the number of commits to include in generated shallow mirror tarballs.
+ With a depth of 1, only the commit referenced in :term:`SRCREV` is
+ included in the shallow mirror tarball. Increasing the depth includes
+ additional parent commits, working back through the commit history.
+
+ If this variable is unset, bitbake will default to a depth of 1 when
+ generating shallow mirror tarballs.
+
+ For example usage, see :term:`BB_GIT_SHALLOW`.
+
+ :term:`BB_GLOBAL_PYMODULES`
+ Specifies the list of Python modules to place in the global namespace.
+ It is intended that only the core layer should set this and it is meant
+ to be a very small list, typically just ``os`` and ``sys``.
+ :term:`BB_GLOBAL_PYMODULES` is expected to be set before the first
+ ``addpylib`` directive.
+ See also ":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:extending python library code`".
+
+ :term:`BB_HASHCHECK_FUNCTION`
+ Specifies the name of the function to call during the "setscene" part
+ of the task's execution in order to validate the list of task hashes.
+ The function returns the list of setscene tasks that should be
+ executed.
+
+ At this point in the execution of the code, the objective is to
+ quickly verify if a given setscene function is likely to work or not.
+ It's easier to check the list of setscene functions in one pass than
+ to call many individual tasks. The returned list need not be
+ completely accurate. A given setscene task can still later fail.
+ However, the more accurate the data returned, the more efficient the
+ build will be.
+
+ :term:`BB_HASHCONFIG_IGNORE_VARS`
+ Lists variables that are excluded from base configuration checksum,
+ which is used to determine if the cache can be reused.
+
+ One of the ways BitBake determines whether to re-parse the main
+ metadata is through checksums of the variables in the datastore of
+ the base configuration data. There are variables that you typically
+ want to exclude when checking whether or not to re-parse and thus
+ rebuild the cache. As an example, you would usually exclude ``TIME``
+ and ``DATE`` because these variables are always changing. If you did
+ not exclude them, BitBake would never reuse the cache.
+
+ :term:`BB_HASHSERVE`
+ Specifies the Hash Equivalence server to use.
+
+ If set to ``auto``, BitBake automatically starts its own server
+ over a UNIX domain socket. An option is to connect this server
+ to an upstream one, by setting :term:`BB_HASHSERVE_UPSTREAM`.
+
+ If set to ``unix://path``, BitBake will connect to an existing
+ hash server available over a UNIX domain socket.
+
+ If set to ``host:port``, BitBake will connect to a remote server on the
+ specified host. This allows multiple clients to share the same
+ hash equivalence data.
+
+ The remote server can be started manually through
+ the ``bin/bitbake-hashserv`` script provided by BitBake,
+ which supports UNIX domain sockets too. This script also allows
+ to start the server in read-only mode, to avoid accepting
+ equivalences that correspond to Share State caches that are
+ only available on specific clients.
+
+ :term:`BB_HASHSERVE_UPSTREAM`
+ Specifies an upstream Hash Equivalence server.
+
+ This optional setting is only useful when a local Hash Equivalence
+ server is started (setting :term:`BB_HASHSERVE` to ``auto``),
+ and you wish the local server to query an upstream server for
+ Hash Equivalence data.
+
+ Example usage::
+
+ BB_HASHSERVE_UPSTREAM = "hashserv.yocto.io:8687"
+
+ :term:`BB_INVALIDCONF`
+ Used in combination with the ``ConfigParsed`` event to trigger
+ re-parsing the base metadata (i.e. all the recipes). The
+ ``ConfigParsed`` event can set the variable to trigger the re-parse.
+ You must be careful to avoid recursive loops with this functionality.
+
+ :term:`BB_LOADFACTOR_MAX`
+ Setting this to a value will cause BitBake to check the system load
+ average before executing new tasks. If the load average is above the
+ the number of CPUs multipled by this factor, no new task will be started
+ unless there is no task executing. A value of "1.5" has been found to
+ work reasonably. This is helpful for systems which don't have pressure
+ regulation enabled, which is more granular. Pressure values take
+ precedence over loadfactor.
+
+ :term:`BB_LOGCONFIG`
+ Specifies the name of a config file that contains the user logging
+ configuration. See
+ :ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-execution:logging`
+ for additional information
+
+ :term:`BB_LOGFMT`
+ Specifies the name of the log files saved into
+ ``${``\ :term:`T`\ ``}``. By default, the :term:`BB_LOGFMT`
+ variable is undefined and the log filenames get created using the
+ following form::
+
+ log.{task}.{pid}
+
+ If you want to force log files to take a specific name, you can set this
+ variable in a configuration file.
+
+ :term:`BB_MULTI_PROVIDER_ALLOWED`
+ Allows you to suppress BitBake warnings caused when building two
+ separate recipes that provide the same output.
+
+ BitBake normally issues a warning when building two different recipes
+ where each provides the same output. This scenario is usually
+ something the user does not want. However, cases do exist where it
+ makes sense, particularly in the ``virtual/*`` namespace. You can use
+ this variable to suppress BitBake's warnings.
+
+ To use the variable, list provider names (e.g. recipe names,
+ ``virtual/kernel``, and so forth).
+
+ :term:`BB_NICE_LEVEL`
+ Allows BitBake to run at a specific priority (i.e. nice level).
+ System permissions usually mean that BitBake can reduce its priority
+ but not raise it again. See :term:`BB_TASK_NICE_LEVEL` for
+ additional information.
+
+ :term:`BB_NO_NETWORK`
+ Disables network access in the BitBake fetcher modules. With this
+ access disabled, any command that attempts to access the network
+ becomes an error.
+
+ Disabling network access is useful for testing source mirrors,
+ running builds when not connected to the Internet, and when operating
+ in certain kinds of firewall environments.
+
+ :term:`BB_NUMBER_PARSE_THREADS`
+ Sets the number of threads BitBake uses when parsing. By default, the
+ number of threads is equal to the number of cores on the system.
+
+ :term:`BB_NUMBER_THREADS`
+ The maximum number of tasks BitBake should run in parallel at any one
+ time. If your host development system supports multiple cores, a good
+ rule of thumb is to set this variable to twice the number of cores.
+
+ :term:`BB_ORIGENV`
+ Contains a copy of the original external environment in which BitBake
+ was run. The copy is taken before any variable values configured to
+ pass through from the external environment are filtered into BitBake's
+ datastore.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The contents of this variable is a datastore object that can be
+ queried using the normal datastore operations.
+
+ :term:`BB_PRESERVE_ENV`
+ Disables environment filtering and instead allows all variables through
+ from the external environment into BitBake's datastore.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ You must set this variable in the external environment in order
+ for it to work.
+
+ :term:`BB_PRESSURE_MAX_CPU`
+ Specifies a maximum CPU pressure threshold, above which BitBake's
+ scheduler will not start new tasks (providing there is at least
+ one active task). If no value is set, CPU pressure is not
+ monitored when starting tasks.
+
+ The pressure data is calculated based upon what Linux kernels since
+ version 4.20 expose under ``/proc/pressure``. The threshold represents
+ the difference in "total" pressure from the previous second. The
+ minimum value is 1.0 (extremely slow builds) and the maximum is
+ 1000000 (a pressure value unlikely to ever be reached).
+
+ This threshold can be set in ``conf/local.conf`` as::
+
+ BB_PRESSURE_MAX_CPU = "500"
+
+ :term:`BB_PRESSURE_MAX_IO`
+ Specifies a maximum I/O pressure threshold, above which BitBake's
+ scheduler will not start new tasks (providing there is at least
+ one active task). If no value is set, I/O pressure is not
+ monitored when starting tasks.
+
+ The pressure data is calculated based upon what Linux kernels since
+ version 4.20 expose under ``/proc/pressure``. The threshold represents
+ the difference in "total" pressure from the previous second. The
+ minimum value is 1.0 (extremely slow builds) and the maximum is
+ 1000000 (a pressure value unlikely to ever be reached).
+
+ At this point in time, experiments show that IO pressure tends to
+ be short-lived and regulating just the CPU with
+ :term:`BB_PRESSURE_MAX_CPU` can help to reduce it.
+
+ :term:`BB_PRESSURE_MAX_MEMORY`
+
+ Specifies a maximum memory pressure threshold, above which BitBake's
+ scheduler will not start new tasks (providing there is at least
+ one active task). If no value is set, memory pressure is not
+ monitored when starting tasks.
+
+ The pressure data is calculated based upon what Linux kernels since
+ version 4.20 expose under ``/proc/pressure``. The threshold represents
+ the difference in "total" pressure from the previous second. The
+ minimum value is 1.0 (extremely slow builds) and the maximum is
+ 1000000 (a pressure value unlikely to ever be reached).
+
+ Memory pressure is experienced when time is spent swapping,
+ refaulting pages from the page cache or performing direct reclaim.
+ This is why memory pressure is rarely seen, but setting this variable
+ might be useful as a last resort to prevent OOM errors if they are
+ occurring during builds.
+
+ :term:`BB_RUNFMT`
+ Specifies the name of the executable script files (i.e. run files)
+ saved into ``${``\ :term:`T`\ ``}``. By default, the
+ :term:`BB_RUNFMT` variable is undefined and the run filenames get
+ created using the following form::
+
+ run.{func}.{pid}
+
+ If you want to force run files to take a specific name, you can set this
+ variable in a configuration file.
+
+ :term:`BB_RUNTASK`
+ Contains the name of the currently executing task. The value includes
+ the "do\_" prefix. For example, if the currently executing task is
+ ``do_config``, the value is "do_config".
+
+ :term:`BB_SCHEDULER`
+ Selects the name of the scheduler to use for the scheduling of
+ BitBake tasks. Three options exist:
+
+ - *basic* --- the basic framework from which everything derives. Using
+ this option causes tasks to be ordered numerically as they are
+ parsed.
+
+ - *speed* --- executes tasks first that have more tasks depending on
+ them. The "speed" option is the default.
+
+ - *completion* --- causes the scheduler to try to complete a given
+ recipe once its build has started.
+
+ :term:`BB_SCHEDULERS`
+ Defines custom schedulers to import. Custom schedulers need to be
+ derived from the ``RunQueueScheduler`` class.
+
+ For information how to select a scheduler, see the
+ :term:`BB_SCHEDULER` variable.
+
+ :term:`BB_SETSCENE_DEPVALID`
+ Specifies a function BitBake calls that determines whether BitBake
+ requires a setscene dependency to be met.
+
+ When running a setscene task, BitBake needs to know which
+ dependencies of that setscene task also need to be run. Whether
+ dependencies also need to be run is highly dependent on the metadata.
+ The function specified by this variable returns a "True" or "False"
+ depending on whether the dependency needs to be met.
+
+ :term:`BB_SIGNATURE_EXCLUDE_FLAGS`
+ Lists variable flags (varflags) that can be safely excluded from
+ checksum and dependency data for keys in the datastore. When
+ generating checksum or dependency data for keys in the datastore, the
+ flags set against that key are normally included in the checksum.
+
+ For more information on varflags, see the
+ ":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:variable flags`"
+ section.
+
+ :term:`BB_SIGNATURE_HANDLER`
+ Defines the name of the signature handler BitBake uses. The signature
+ handler defines the way stamp files are created and handled, if and
+ how the signature is incorporated into the stamps, and how the
+ signature itself is generated.
+
+ A new signature handler can be added by injecting a class derived
+ from the ``SignatureGenerator`` class into the global namespace.
+
+ :term:`BB_SRCREV_POLICY`
+ Defines the behavior of the fetcher when it interacts with source
+ control systems and dynamic source revisions. The
+ :term:`BB_SRCREV_POLICY` variable is useful when working without a
+ network.
+
+ The variable can be set using one of two policies:
+
+ - *cache* --- retains the value the system obtained previously rather
+ than querying the source control system each time.
+
+ - *clear* --- queries the source controls system every time. With this
+ policy, there is no cache. The "clear" policy is the default.
+
+ :term:`BB_STRICT_CHECKSUM`
+ Sets a more strict checksum mechanism for non-local URLs. Setting
+ this variable to a value causes BitBake to report an error if it
+ encounters a non-local URL that does not have at least one checksum
+ specified.
+
+ :term:`BB_TASK_IONICE_LEVEL`
+ Allows adjustment of a task's Input/Output priority. During
+ Autobuilder testing, random failures can occur for tasks due to I/O
+ starvation. These failures occur during various QEMU runtime
+ timeouts. You can use the :term:`BB_TASK_IONICE_LEVEL` variable to adjust
+ the I/O priority of these tasks.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This variable works similarly to the :term:`BB_TASK_NICE_LEVEL`
+ variable except with a task's I/O priorities.
+
+ Set the variable as follows::
+
+ BB_TASK_IONICE_LEVEL = "class.prio"
+
+ For *class*, the default value is "2", which is a best effort. You can use
+ "1" for realtime and "3" for idle. If you want to use realtime, you
+ must have superuser privileges.
+
+ For *prio*, you can use any value from "0", which is the highest
+ priority, to "7", which is the lowest. The default value is "4". You
+ do not need any special privileges to use this range of priority
+ values.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ In order for your I/O priority settings to take effect, you need the
+ Completely Fair Queuing (CFQ) Scheduler selected for the backing block
+ device. To select the scheduler, use the following command form where
+ device is the device (e.g. sda, sdb, and so forth)::
+
+ $ sudo sh -c "echo cfq > /sys/block/device/queu/scheduler"
+
+ :term:`BB_TASK_NICE_LEVEL`
+ Allows specific tasks to change their priority (i.e. nice level).
+
+ You can use this variable in combination with task overrides to raise
+ or lower priorities of specific tasks. For example, on the `Yocto
+ Project <https://www.yoctoproject.org>`__ autobuilder, QEMU emulation
+ in images is given a higher priority as compared to build tasks to
+ ensure that images do not suffer timeouts on loaded systems.
+
+ :term:`BB_TASKHASH`
+ Within an executing task, this variable holds the hash of the task as
+ returned by the currently enabled signature generator.
+
+ :term:`BB_VERBOSE_LOGS`
+ Controls how verbose BitBake is during builds. If set, shell scripts
+ echo commands and shell script output appears on standard out
+ (stdout).
+
+ :term:`BB_WORKERCONTEXT`
+ Specifies if the current context is executing a task. BitBake sets
+ this variable to "1" when a task is being executed. The value is not
+ set when the task is in server context during parsing or event
+ handling.
+
+ :term:`BBCLASSEXTEND`
+ Allows you to extend a recipe so that it builds variants of the
+ software. Some examples of these variants for recipes from the
+ OpenEmbedded-Core metadata are "natives" such as ``quilt-native``,
+ which is a copy of Quilt built to run on the build system; "crosses"
+ such as ``gcc-cross``, which is a compiler built to run on the build
+ machine but produces binaries that run on the target ``MACHINE``;
+ "nativesdk", which targets the SDK machine instead of ``MACHINE``;
+ and "mulitlibs" in the form "``multilib:``\ multilib_name".
+
+ To build a different variant of the recipe with a minimal amount of
+ code, it usually is as simple as adding the variable to your recipe.
+ Here are two examples. The "native" variants are from the
+ OpenEmbedded-Core metadata::
+
+ BBCLASSEXTEND =+ "native nativesdk"
+ BBCLASSEXTEND =+ "multilib:multilib_name"
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Internally, the :term:`BBCLASSEXTEND` mechanism generates recipe
+ variants by rewriting variable values and applying overrides such
+ as ``_class-native``. For example, to generate a native version of
+ a recipe, a :term:`DEPENDS` on "foo" is
+ rewritten to a :term:`DEPENDS` on "foo-native".
+
+ Even when using :term:`BBCLASSEXTEND`, the recipe is only parsed once.
+ Parsing once adds some limitations. For example, it is not
+ possible to include a different file depending on the variant,
+ since ``include`` statements are processed when the recipe is
+ parsed.
+
+ :term:`BBDEBUG`
+ Sets the BitBake debug output level to a specific value as
+ incremented by the ``-D`` command line option.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ You must set this variable in the external environment in order
+ for it to work.
+
+ :term:`BBFILE_COLLECTIONS`
+ Lists the names of configured layers. These names are used to find
+ the other ``BBFILE_*`` variables. Typically, each layer appends its
+ name to this variable in its ``conf/layer.conf`` file.
+
+ :term:`BBFILE_PATTERN`
+ Variable that expands to match files from
+ :term:`BBFILES` in a particular layer. This
+ variable is used in the ``conf/layer.conf`` file and must be suffixed
+ with the name of the specific layer (e.g.
+ ``BBFILE_PATTERN_emenlow``).
+
+ :term:`BBFILE_PRIORITY`
+ Assigns the priority for recipe files in each layer.
+
+ This variable is useful in situations where the same recipe appears
+ in more than one layer. Setting this variable allows you to
+ prioritize a layer against other layers that contain the same recipe
+ --- effectively letting you control the precedence for the multiple
+ layers. The precedence established through this variable stands
+ regardless of a recipe's version (:term:`PV` variable).
+ For example, a layer that has a recipe with a higher :term:`PV` value but
+ for which the :term:`BBFILE_PRIORITY` is set to have a lower precedence
+ still has a lower precedence.
+
+ A larger value for the :term:`BBFILE_PRIORITY` variable results in a
+ higher precedence. For example, the value 6 has a higher precedence
+ than the value 5. If not specified, the :term:`BBFILE_PRIORITY` variable
+ is set based on layer dependencies (see the :term:`LAYERDEPENDS` variable
+ for more information. The default priority, if unspecified for a
+ layer with no dependencies, is the lowest defined priority + 1 (or 1
+ if no priorities are defined).
+
+ .. tip::
+
+ You can use the command bitbake-layers show-layers to list all
+ configured layers along with their priorities.
+
+ :term:`BBFILES`
+ A space-separated list of recipe files BitBake uses to build
+ software.
+
+ When specifying recipe files, you can pattern match using Python's
+ `glob <https://docs.python.org/3/library/glob.html>`_ syntax.
+ For details on the syntax, see the documentation by following the
+ previous link.
+
+ :term:`BBFILES_DYNAMIC`
+ Activates content depending on presence of identified layers. You
+ identify the layers by the collections that the layers define.
+
+ Use the :term:`BBFILES_DYNAMIC` variable to avoid ``.bbappend`` files whose
+ corresponding ``.bb`` file is in a layer that attempts to modify other
+ layers through ``.bbappend`` but does not want to introduce a hard
+ dependency on those other layers.
+
+ Additionally you can prefix the rule with "!" to add ``.bbappend`` and
+ ``.bb`` files in case a layer is not present. Use this avoid hard
+ dependency on those other layers.
+
+ Use the following form for :term:`BBFILES_DYNAMIC`::
+
+ collection_name:filename_pattern
+
+ The following example identifies two collection names and two filename
+ patterns::
+
+ BBFILES_DYNAMIC += "\
+ clang-layer:${LAYERDIR}/bbappends/meta-clang/*/*/*.bbappend \
+ core:${LAYERDIR}/bbappends/openembedded-core/meta/*/*/*.bbappend \
+ "
+
+ When the collection name is prefixed with "!" it will add the file pattern in case
+ the layer is absent::
+
+ BBFILES_DYNAMIC += "\
+ !clang-layer:${LAYERDIR}/backfill/meta-clang/*/*/*.bb \
+ "
+
+ This next example shows an error message that occurs because invalid
+ entries are found, which cause parsing to fail::
+
+ ERROR: BBFILES_DYNAMIC entries must be of the form {!}<collection name>:<filename pattern>, not:
+ /work/my-layer/bbappends/meta-security-isafw/*/*/*.bbappend
+ /work/my-layer/bbappends/openembedded-core/meta/*/*/*.bbappend
+
+ :term:`BBINCLUDED`
+ Contains a space-separated list of all of all files that BitBake's
+ parser included during parsing of the current file.
+
+ :term:`BBINCLUDELOGS`
+ If set to a value, enables printing the task log when reporting a
+ failed task.
+
+ :term:`BBINCLUDELOGS_LINES`
+ If :term:`BBINCLUDELOGS` is set, specifies
+ the maximum number of lines from the task log file to print when
+ reporting a failed task. If you do not set :term:`BBINCLUDELOGS_LINES`,
+ the entire log is printed.
+
+ :term:`BBLAYERS`
+ Lists the layers to enable during the build. This variable is defined
+ in the ``bblayers.conf`` configuration file in the build directory.
+ Here is an example::
+
+ BBLAYERS = " \
+ /home/scottrif/poky/meta \
+ /home/scottrif/poky/meta-yocto \
+ /home/scottrif/poky/meta-yocto-bsp \
+ /home/scottrif/poky/meta-mykernel \
+ "
+
+ This example enables four layers, one of which is a custom, user-defined
+ layer named ``meta-mykernel``.
+
+ :term:`BBLAYERS_FETCH_DIR`
+ Sets the base location where layers are stored. This setting is used
+ in conjunction with ``bitbake-layers layerindex-fetch`` and tells
+ ``bitbake-layers`` where to place the fetched layers.
+
+ :term:`BBMASK`
+ Prevents BitBake from processing recipes and recipe append files.
+
+ You can use the :term:`BBMASK` variable to "hide" these ``.bb`` and
+ ``.bbappend`` files. BitBake ignores any recipe or recipe append
+ files that match any of the expressions. It is as if BitBake does not
+ see them at all. Consequently, matching files are not parsed or
+ otherwise used by BitBake.
+
+ The values you provide are passed to Python's regular expression
+ compiler. Consequently, the syntax follows Python's Regular
+ Expression (re) syntax. The expressions are compared against the full
+ paths to the files. For complete syntax information, see Python's
+ documentation at http://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html.
+
+ The following example uses a complete regular expression to tell
+ BitBake to ignore all recipe and recipe append files in the
+ ``meta-ti/recipes-misc/`` directory::
+
+ BBMASK = "meta-ti/recipes-misc/"
+
+ If you want to mask out multiple directories or recipes, you can
+ specify multiple regular expression fragments. This next example
+ masks out multiple directories and individual recipes::
+
+ BBMASK += "/meta-ti/recipes-misc/ meta-ti/recipes-ti/packagegroup/"
+ BBMASK += "/meta-oe/recipes-support/"
+ BBMASK += "/meta-foo/.*/openldap"
+ BBMASK += "opencv.*\.bbappend"
+ BBMASK += "lzma"
+
+ .. note::
+
+ When specifying a directory name, use the trailing slash character
+ to ensure you match just that directory name.
+
+ :term:`BBMULTICONFIG`
+ Enables BitBake to perform multiple configuration builds and lists
+ each separate configuration (multiconfig). You can use this variable
+ to cause BitBake to build multiple targets where each target has a
+ separate configuration. Define :term:`BBMULTICONFIG` in your
+ ``conf/local.conf`` configuration file.
+
+ As an example, the following line specifies three multiconfigs, each
+ having a separate configuration file::
+
+ BBMULTIFONFIG = "configA configB configC"
+
+ Each configuration file you use must reside in the
+ build directory within a directory named ``conf/multiconfig`` (e.g.
+ build_directory\ ``/conf/multiconfig/configA.conf``).
+
+ For information on how to use :term:`BBMULTICONFIG` in an environment
+ that supports building targets with multiple configurations, see the
+ ":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-intro:executing a multiple configuration build`"
+ section.
+
+ :term:`BBPATH`
+ A colon-separated list used by BitBake to locate class (``.bbclass``)
+ and configuration (``.conf``) files. This variable is analogous to the
+ ``PATH`` variable.
+
+ If you run BitBake from a directory outside of the build directory,
+ you must be sure to set :term:`BBPATH` to point to the build directory.
+ Set the variable as you would any environment variable and then run
+ BitBake::
+
+ $ BBPATH="build_directory"
+ $ export BBPATH
+ $ bitbake target
+
+ :term:`BBSERVER`
+ Points to the server that runs memory-resident BitBake. The variable
+ is only used when you employ memory-resident BitBake.
+
+ :term:`BBTARGETS`
+ Allows you to use a configuration file to add to the list of
+ command-line target recipes you want to build.
+
+ :term:`BITBAKE_UI`
+ Used to specify the UI module to use when running BitBake. Using this
+ variable is equivalent to using the ``-u`` command-line option.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ You must set this variable in the external environment in order
+ for it to work.
+
+ :term:`BUILDNAME`
+ A name assigned to the build. The name defaults to a datetime stamp
+ of when the build was started but can be defined by the metadata.
+
+ :term:`BZRDIR`
+ The directory in which files checked out of a Bazaar system are
+ stored.
+
+ :term:`CACHE`
+ Specifies the directory BitBake uses to store a cache of the metadata
+ so it does not need to be parsed every time BitBake is started.
+
+ :term:`CVSDIR`
+ The directory in which files checked out under the CVS system are
+ stored.
+
+ :term:`DEFAULT_PREFERENCE`
+ Specifies a weak bias for recipe selection priority.
+
+ The most common usage of this is variable is to set it to "-1" within
+ a recipe for a development version of a piece of software. Using the
+ variable in this way causes the stable version of the recipe to build
+ by default in the absence of :term:`PREFERRED_VERSION` being used to
+ build the development version.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The bias provided by DEFAULT_PREFERENCE is weak and is overridden by
+ :term:`BBFILE_PRIORITY` if that variable is different between two
+ layers that contain different versions of the same recipe.
+
+ :term:`DEPENDS`
+ Lists a recipe's build-time dependencies (i.e. other recipe files).
+
+ Consider this simple example for two recipes named "a" and "b" that
+ produce similarly named packages. In this example, the :term:`DEPENDS`
+ statement appears in the "a" recipe::
+
+ DEPENDS = "b"
+
+ Here, the dependency is such that the ``do_configure`` task for recipe "a"
+ depends on the ``do_populate_sysroot`` task of recipe "b". This means
+ anything that recipe "b" puts into sysroot is available when recipe "a" is
+ configuring itself.
+
+ For information on runtime dependencies, see the :term:`RDEPENDS`
+ variable.
+
+ :term:`DESCRIPTION`
+ A long description for the recipe.
+
+ :term:`DL_DIR`
+ The central download directory used by the build process to store
+ downloads. By default, :term:`DL_DIR` gets files suitable for mirroring for
+ everything except Git repositories. If you want tarballs of Git
+ repositories, use the :term:`BB_GENERATE_MIRROR_TARBALLS` variable.
+
+ :term:`EXCLUDE_FROM_WORLD`
+ Directs BitBake to exclude a recipe from world builds (i.e.
+ ``bitbake world``). During world builds, BitBake locates, parses and
+ builds all recipes found in every layer exposed in the
+ ``bblayers.conf`` configuration file.
+
+ To exclude a recipe from a world build using this variable, set the
+ variable to "1" in the recipe. Set it to "0" to add it back to world build.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Recipes added to :term:`EXCLUDE_FROM_WORLD` may still be built during a world
+ build in order to satisfy dependencies of other recipes. Adding a
+ recipe to :term:`EXCLUDE_FROM_WORLD` only ensures that the recipe is not
+ explicitly added to the list of build targets in a world build.
+
+ :term:`FAKEROOT`
+ Contains the command to use when running a shell script in a fakeroot
+ environment. The :term:`FAKEROOT` variable is obsolete and has been
+ replaced by the other ``FAKEROOT*`` variables. See these entries in
+ the glossary for more information.
+
+ :term:`FAKEROOTBASEENV`
+ Lists environment variables to set when executing the command defined
+ by :term:`FAKEROOTCMD` that starts the
+ bitbake-worker process in the fakeroot environment.
+
+ :term:`FAKEROOTCMD`
+ Contains the command that starts the bitbake-worker process in the
+ fakeroot environment.
+
+ :term:`FAKEROOTDIRS`
+ Lists directories to create before running a task in the fakeroot
+ environment.
+
+ :term:`FAKEROOTENV`
+ Lists environment variables to set when running a task in the
+ fakeroot environment. For additional information on environment
+ variables and the fakeroot environment, see the
+ :term:`FAKEROOTBASEENV` variable.
+
+ :term:`FAKEROOTNOENV`
+ Lists environment variables to set when running a task that is not in
+ the fakeroot environment. For additional information on environment
+ variables and the fakeroot environment, see the
+ :term:`FAKEROOTENV` variable.
+
+ :term:`FETCHCMD`
+ Defines the command the BitBake fetcher module executes when running
+ fetch operations. You need to use an override suffix when you use the
+ variable (e.g. ``FETCHCMD_git`` or ``FETCHCMD_svn``).
+
+ :term:`FILE`
+ Points at the current file. BitBake sets this variable during the
+ parsing process to identify the file being parsed. BitBake also sets
+ this variable when a recipe is being executed to identify the recipe
+ file.
+
+ :term:`FILESPATH`
+ Specifies directories BitBake uses when searching for patches and
+ files. The "local" fetcher module uses these directories when
+ handling ``file://`` URLs. The variable behaves like a shell ``PATH``
+ environment variable. The value is a colon-separated list of
+ directories that are searched left-to-right in order.
+
+ :term:`FILE_LAYERNAME`
+ During parsing and task execution, this is set to the name of the
+ layer containing the recipe file. Code can use this to identify which
+ layer a recipe is from.
+
+ :term:`GITDIR`
+ The directory in which a local copy of a Git repository is stored
+ when it is cloned.
+
+ :term:`HGDIR`
+ The directory in which files checked out of a Mercurial system are
+ stored.
+
+ :term:`HOMEPAGE`
+ Website where more information about the software the recipe is
+ building can be found.
+
+ :term:`INHERIT`
+ Causes the named class or classes to be inherited globally. Anonymous
+ functions in the class or classes are not executed for the base
+ configuration and in each individual recipe. The OpenEmbedded build
+ system ignores changes to :term:`INHERIT` in individual recipes.
+
+ For more information on :term:`INHERIT`, see the
+ ":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:\`\`inherit\`\` configuration directive`"
+ section.
+
+ :term:`LAYERDEPENDS`
+ Lists the layers, separated by spaces, upon which this recipe
+ depends. Optionally, you can specify a specific layer version for a
+ dependency by adding it to the end of the layer name with a colon,
+ (e.g. "anotherlayer:3" to be compared against
+ :term:`LAYERVERSION`\ ``_anotherlayer`` in
+ this case). BitBake produces an error if any dependency is missing or
+ the version numbers do not match exactly (if specified).
+
+ You use this variable in the ``conf/layer.conf`` file. You must also
+ use the specific layer name as a suffix to the variable (e.g.
+ ``LAYERDEPENDS_mylayer``).
+
+ :term:`LAYERDIR`
+ When used inside the ``layer.conf`` configuration file, this variable
+ provides the path of the current layer. This variable is not
+ available outside of ``layer.conf`` and references are expanded
+ immediately when parsing of the file completes.
+
+ :term:`LAYERDIR_RE`
+ When used inside the ``layer.conf`` configuration file, this variable
+ provides the path of the current layer, escaped for use in a regular
+ expression (:term:`BBFILE_PATTERN`). This
+ variable is not available outside of ``layer.conf`` and references
+ are expanded immediately when parsing of the file completes.
+
+ :term:`LAYERSERIES_COMPAT`
+ Lists the versions of the OpenEmbedded-Core (OE-Core) for which
+ a layer is compatible. Using the :term:`LAYERSERIES_COMPAT` variable
+ allows the layer maintainer to indicate which combinations of the
+ layer and OE-Core can be expected to work. The variable gives the
+ system a way to detect when a layer has not been tested with new
+ releases of OE-Core (e.g. the layer is not maintained).
+
+ To specify the OE-Core versions for which a layer is compatible, use
+ this variable in your layer's ``conf/layer.conf`` configuration file.
+ For the list, use the Yocto Project release name (e.g. "kirkstone",
+ "mickledore"). To specify multiple OE-Core versions for the layer, use
+ a space-separated list::
+
+ LAYERSERIES_COMPAT_layer_root_name = "kirkstone mickledore"
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Setting :term:`LAYERSERIES_COMPAT` is required by the Yocto Project
+ Compatible version 2 standard.
+ The OpenEmbedded build system produces a warning if the variable
+ is not set for any given layer.
+
+ :term:`LAYERVERSION`
+ Optionally specifies the version of a layer as a single number. You
+ can use this variable within
+ :term:`LAYERDEPENDS` for another layer in
+ order to depend on a specific version of the layer.
+
+ You use this variable in the ``conf/layer.conf`` file. You must also
+ use the specific layer name as a suffix to the variable (e.g.
+ ``LAYERDEPENDS_mylayer``).
+
+ :term:`LICENSE`
+ The list of source licenses for the recipe.
+
+ :term:`MIRRORS`
+ Specifies additional paths from which BitBake gets source code. When
+ the build system searches for source code, it first tries the local
+ download directory. If that location fails, the build system tries
+ locations defined by :term:`PREMIRRORS`, the
+ upstream source, and then locations specified by :term:`MIRRORS` in that
+ order.
+
+ :term:`OVERRIDES`
+ A colon-separated list that BitBake uses to control what variables are
+ overridden after BitBake parses recipes and configuration files.
+
+ Following is a simple example that uses an overrides list based on
+ machine architectures: OVERRIDES = "arm:x86:mips:powerpc" You can
+ find information on how to use :term:`OVERRIDES` in the
+ ":ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata:conditional syntax
+ (overrides)`" section.
+
+ :term:`P4DIR`
+ The directory in which a local copy of a Perforce depot is stored
+ when it is fetched.
+
+ :term:`PACKAGES`
+ The list of packages the recipe creates.
+
+ :term:`PACKAGES_DYNAMIC`
+ A promise that your recipe satisfies runtime dependencies for
+ optional modules that are found in other recipes.
+ :term:`PACKAGES_DYNAMIC` does not actually satisfy the dependencies, it
+ only states that they should be satisfied. For example, if a hard,
+ runtime dependency (:term:`RDEPENDS`) of another
+ package is satisfied during the build through the
+ :term:`PACKAGES_DYNAMIC` variable, but a package with the module name is
+ never actually produced, then the other package will be broken.
+
+ :term:`PE`
+ The epoch of the recipe. By default, this variable is unset. The
+ variable is used to make upgrades possible when the versioning scheme
+ changes in some backwards incompatible way.
+
+ :term:`PERSISTENT_DIR`
+ Specifies the directory BitBake uses to store data that should be
+ preserved between builds. In particular, the data stored is the data
+ that uses BitBake's persistent data API and the data used by the PR
+ Server and PR Service.
+
+ :term:`PF`
+ Specifies the recipe or package name and includes all version and
+ revision numbers (i.e. ``eglibc-2.13-r20+svnr15508/`` and
+ ``bash-4.2-r1/``).
+
+ :term:`PN`
+ The recipe name.
+
+ :term:`PR`
+ The revision of the recipe.
+
+ :term:`PREFERRED_PROVIDER`
+ Determines which recipe should be given preference when multiple
+ recipes provide the same item. You should always suffix the variable
+ with the name of the provided item, and you should set it to the
+ :term:`PN` of the recipe to which you want to give
+ precedence. Some examples::
+
+ PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel ?= "linux-yocto"
+ PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/xserver = "xserver-xf86"
+ PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/libgl ?= "mesa"
+
+ :term:`PREFERRED_PROVIDERS`
+ Determines which recipe should be given preference for cases where
+ multiple recipes provide the same item. Functionally,
+ :term:`PREFERRED_PROVIDERS` is identical to
+ :term:`PREFERRED_PROVIDER`. However, the :term:`PREFERRED_PROVIDERS` variable
+ lets you define preferences for multiple situations using the following
+ form::
+
+ PREFERRED_PROVIDERS = "xxx:yyy aaa:bbb ..."
+
+ This form is a convenient replacement for the following::
+
+ PREFERRED_PROVIDER_xxx = "yyy"
+ PREFERRED_PROVIDER_aaa = "bbb"
+
+ :term:`PREFERRED_VERSION`
+ If there are multiple versions of a recipe available, this variable
+ determines which version should be given preference. You must always
+ suffix the variable with the :term:`PN` you want to
+ select, and you should set :term:`PV` accordingly for
+ precedence.
+
+ The :term:`PREFERRED_VERSION` variable supports limited wildcard use
+ through the "``%``" character. You can use the character to match any
+ number of characters, which can be useful when specifying versions
+ that contain long revision numbers that potentially change. Here are
+ two examples::
+
+ PREFERRED_VERSION_python = "2.7.3"
+ PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-yocto = "4.12%"
+
+ .. important::
+
+ The use of the " % " character is limited in that it only works at the
+ end of the string. You cannot use the wildcard character in any other
+ location of the string.
+
+ If a recipe with the specified version is not available, a warning
+ message will be shown. See :term:`REQUIRED_VERSION` if you want this
+ to be an error instead.
+
+ :term:`PREMIRRORS`
+ Specifies additional paths from which BitBake gets source code. When
+ the build system searches for source code, it first tries the local
+ download directory. If that location fails, the build system tries
+ locations defined by :term:`PREMIRRORS`, the upstream source, and then
+ locations specified by :term:`MIRRORS` in that order.
+
+ Typically, you would add a specific server for the build system to
+ attempt before any others by adding something like the following to
+ your configuration::
+
+ PREMIRRORS:prepend = "\
+ git://.*/.* http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/mirror/sources/ \
+ ftp://.*/.* http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/mirror/sources/ \
+ http://.*/.* http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/mirror/sources/ \
+ https://.*/.* http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/mirror/sources/"
+
+ These changes cause the build system to intercept Git, FTP, HTTP, and
+ HTTPS requests and direct them to the ``http://`` sources mirror. You can
+ use ``file://`` URLs to point to local directories or network shares as
+ well.
+
+ :term:`PROVIDES`
+ A list of aliases by which a particular recipe can be known. By
+ default, a recipe's own :term:`PN` is implicitly already in its
+ :term:`PROVIDES` list. If a recipe uses :term:`PROVIDES`, the additional
+ aliases are synonyms for the recipe and can be useful satisfying
+ dependencies of other recipes during the build as specified by
+ :term:`DEPENDS`.
+
+ Consider the following example :term:`PROVIDES` statement from a recipe
+ file ``libav_0.8.11.bb``::
+
+ PROVIDES += "libpostproc"
+
+ The :term:`PROVIDES` statement results in the "libav" recipe also being known
+ as "libpostproc".
+
+ In addition to providing recipes under alternate names, the
+ :term:`PROVIDES` mechanism is also used to implement virtual targets. A
+ virtual target is a name that corresponds to some particular
+ functionality (e.g. a Linux kernel). Recipes that provide the
+ functionality in question list the virtual target in :term:`PROVIDES`.
+ Recipes that depend on the functionality in question can include the
+ virtual target in :term:`DEPENDS` to leave the
+ choice of provider open.
+
+ Conventionally, virtual targets have names on the form
+ "virtual/function" (e.g. "virtual/kernel"). The slash is simply part
+ of the name and has no syntactical significance.
+
+ :term:`PRSERV_HOST`
+ The network based :term:`PR` service host and port.
+
+ Following is an example of how the :term:`PRSERV_HOST` variable is set::
+
+ PRSERV_HOST = "localhost:0"
+
+ You must set the variable if you want to automatically start a local PR
+ service. You can set :term:`PRSERV_HOST` to other values to use a remote PR
+ service.
+
+ :term:`PV`
+ The version of the recipe.
+
+ :term:`RDEPENDS`
+ Lists a package's runtime dependencies (i.e. other packages) that
+ must be installed in order for the built package to run correctly. If
+ a package in this list cannot be found during the build, you will get
+ a build error.
+
+ Because the :term:`RDEPENDS` variable applies to packages being built,
+ you should always use the variable in a form with an attached package
+ name. For example, suppose you are building a development package
+ that depends on the ``perl`` package. In this case, you would use the
+ following :term:`RDEPENDS` statement::
+
+ RDEPENDS:${PN}-dev += "perl"
+
+ In the example, the development package depends on the ``perl`` package.
+ Thus, the :term:`RDEPENDS` variable has the ``${PN}-dev`` package name as part
+ of the variable.
+
+ BitBake supports specifying versioned dependencies. Although the
+ syntax varies depending on the packaging format, BitBake hides these
+ differences from you. Here is the general syntax to specify versions
+ with the :term:`RDEPENDS` variable::
+
+ RDEPENDS:${PN} = "package (operator version)"
+
+ For ``operator``, you can specify the following::
+
+ =
+ <
+ >
+ <=
+ >=
+
+ For example, the following sets up a dependency on version 1.2 or
+ greater of the package ``foo``::
+
+ RDEPENDS:${PN} = "foo (>= 1.2)"
+
+ For information on build-time dependencies, see the :term:`DEPENDS`
+ variable.
+
+ :term:`REPODIR`
+ The directory in which a local copy of a ``google-repo`` directory is
+ stored when it is synced.
+
+ :term:`REQUIRED_VERSION`
+ If there are multiple versions of a recipe available, this variable
+ determines which version should be given preference. :term:`REQUIRED_VERSION`
+ works in exactly the same manner as :term:`PREFERRED_VERSION`, except
+ that if the specified version is not available then an error message
+ is shown and the build fails immediately.
+
+ If both :term:`REQUIRED_VERSION` and :term:`PREFERRED_VERSION` are set for
+ the same recipe, the :term:`REQUIRED_VERSION` value applies.
+
+ :term:`RPROVIDES`
+ A list of package name aliases that a package also provides. These
+ aliases are useful for satisfying runtime dependencies of other
+ packages both during the build and on the target (as specified by
+ :term:`RDEPENDS`).
+
+ As with all package-controlling variables, you must always use the
+ variable in conjunction with a package name override. Here is an
+ example::
+
+ RPROVIDES:${PN} = "widget-abi-2"
+
+ :term:`RRECOMMENDS`
+ A list of packages that extends the usability of a package being
+ built. The package being built does not depend on this list of
+ packages in order to successfully build, but needs them for the
+ extended usability. To specify runtime dependencies for packages, see
+ the :term:`RDEPENDS` variable.
+
+ BitBake supports specifying versioned recommends. Although the syntax
+ varies depending on the packaging format, BitBake hides these
+ differences from you. Here is the general syntax to specify versions
+ with the :term:`RRECOMMENDS` variable::
+
+ RRECOMMENDS:${PN} = "package (operator version)"
+
+ For ``operator``, you can specify the following::
+
+ =
+ <
+ >
+ <=
+ >=
+
+ For example, the following sets up a recommend on version
+ 1.2 or greater of the package ``foo``::
+
+ RRECOMMENDS:${PN} = "foo (>= 1.2)"
+
+ :term:`SECTION`
+ The section in which packages should be categorized.
+
+ :term:`SRC_URI`
+ The list of source files --- local or remote. This variable tells
+ BitBake which bits to pull for the build and how to pull them. For
+ example, if the recipe or append file needs to fetch a single tarball
+ from the Internet, the recipe or append file uses a :term:`SRC_URI`
+ entry that specifies that tarball. On the other hand, if the recipe or
+ append file needs to fetch a tarball, apply two patches, and include
+ a custom file, the recipe or append file needs an :term:`SRC_URI`
+ variable that specifies all those sources.
+
+ The following list explains the available URI protocols. URI
+ protocols are highly dependent on particular BitBake Fetcher
+ submodules. Depending on the fetcher BitBake uses, various URL
+ parameters are employed. For specifics on the supported Fetchers, see
+ the :ref:`bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-fetching:fetchers`
+ section.
+
+ - ``az://``: Fetches files from an Azure Storage account using HTTPS.
+
+ - ``bzr://``: Fetches files from a Bazaar revision control
+ repository.
+
+ - ``ccrc://``: Fetches files from a ClearCase repository.
+
+ - ``cvs://``: Fetches files from a CVS revision control
+ repository.
+
+ - ``file://``: Fetches files, which are usually files shipped
+ with the Metadata, from the local machine.
+ The path is relative to the :term:`FILESPATH`
+ variable. Thus, the build system searches, in order, from the
+ following directories, which are assumed to be a subdirectories of
+ the directory in which the recipe file (``.bb``) or append file
+ (``.bbappend``) resides:
+
+ - ``${BPN}``: the base recipe name without any special suffix
+ or version numbers.
+
+ - ``${BP}`` - ``${BPN}-${PV}``: the base recipe name and
+ version but without any special package name suffix.
+
+ - ``files``: files within a directory, which is named ``files``
+ and is also alongside the recipe or append file.
+
+ - ``ftp://``: Fetches files from the Internet using FTP.
+
+ - ``git://``: Fetches files from a Git revision control
+ repository.
+
+ - ``gitsm://``: Fetches submodules from a Git revision control
+ repository.
+
+ - ``hg://``: Fetches files from a Mercurial (``hg``) revision
+ control repository.
+
+ - ``http://``: Fetches files from the Internet using HTTP.
+
+ - ``https://``: Fetches files from the Internet using HTTPS.
+
+ - ``npm://``: Fetches JavaScript modules from a registry.
+
+ - ``osc://``: Fetches files from an OSC (OpenSUSE Build service)
+ revision control repository.
+
+ - ``p4://``: Fetches files from a Perforce (``p4``) revision
+ control repository.
+
+ - ``repo://``: Fetches files from a repo (Git) repository.
+
+ - ``ssh://``: Fetches files from a secure shell.
+
+ - ``svn://``: Fetches files from a Subversion (``svn``) revision
+ control repository.
+
+ Here are some additional options worth mentioning:
+
+ - ``downloadfilename``: Specifies the filename used when storing
+ the downloaded file.
+
+ - ``name``: Specifies a name to be used for association with
+ :term:`SRC_URI` checksums or :term:`SRCREV` when you have more than one
+ file or git repository specified in :term:`SRC_URI`. For example::
+
+ SRC_URI = "git://example.com/foo.git;branch=main;name=first \
+ git://example.com/bar.git;branch=main;name=second \
+ http://example.com/file.tar.gz;name=third"
+
+ SRCREV_first = "f1d2d2f924e986ac86fdf7b36c94bcdf32beec15"
+ SRCREV_second = "e242ed3bffccdf271b7fbaf34ed72d089537b42f"
+ SRC_URI[third.sha256sum] = "13550350a8681c84c861aac2e5b440161c2b33a3e4f302ac680ca5b686de48de"
+
+ - ``subdir``: Places the file (or extracts its contents) into the
+ specified subdirectory. This option is useful for unusual tarballs
+ or other archives that do not have their files already in a
+ subdirectory within the archive.
+
+ - ``subpath``: Limits the checkout to a specific subpath of the
+ tree when using the Git fetcher is used.
+
+ - ``unpack``: Controls whether or not to unpack the file if it is
+ an archive. The default action is to unpack the file.
+
+ :term:`SRCDATE`
+ The date of the source code used to build the package. This variable
+ applies only if the source was fetched from a Source Code Manager
+ (SCM).
+
+ :term:`SRCREV`
+ The revision of the source code used to build the package. This
+ variable applies only when using Subversion, Git, Mercurial and
+ Bazaar. If you want to build a fixed revision and you want to avoid
+ performing a query on the remote repository every time BitBake parses
+ your recipe, you should specify a :term:`SRCREV` that is a full revision
+ identifier and not just a tag.
+
+ :term:`SRCREV_FORMAT`
+ Helps construct valid :term:`SRCREV` values when
+ multiple source controlled URLs are used in
+ :term:`SRC_URI`.
+
+ The system needs help constructing these values under these
+ circumstances. Each component in the :term:`SRC_URI` is assigned a name
+ and these are referenced in the :term:`SRCREV_FORMAT` variable. Consider
+ an example with URLs named "machine" and "meta". In this case,
+ :term:`SRCREV_FORMAT` could look like "machine_meta" and those names
+ would have the SCM versions substituted into each position. Only one
+ ``AUTOINC`` placeholder is added and if needed. And, this placeholder
+ is placed at the start of the returned string.
+
+ :term:`STAMP`
+ Specifies the base path used to create recipe stamp files. The path
+ to an actual stamp file is constructed by evaluating this string and
+ then appending additional information.
+
+ :term:`STAMPCLEAN`
+ Specifies the base path used to create recipe stamp files. Unlike the
+ :term:`STAMP` variable, :term:`STAMPCLEAN` can contain
+ wildcards to match the range of files a clean operation should
+ remove. BitBake uses a clean operation to remove any other stamps it
+ should be removing when creating a new stamp.
+
+ :term:`SUMMARY`
+ A short summary for the recipe, which is 72 characters or less.
+
+ :term:`SVNDIR`
+ The directory in which files checked out of a Subversion system are
+ stored.
+
+ :term:`T`
+ Points to a directory were BitBake places temporary files, which
+ consist mostly of task logs and scripts, when building a particular
+ recipe.
+
+ :term:`TOPDIR`
+ Points to the build directory. BitBake automatically sets this
+ variable.

- <para>
- Specifies a space-delimited list of hosts that the fetcher
- is allowed to use to obtain the required source code.
- Following are considerations surrounding this variable:
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem><para>
- This host list is only used if

- <note><title>Important</title>
- <para>The use of the "<filename>*</filename>"

- the remainder of the host name.
- You cannot use the wildcard character in any

- the front part of the name.</para>

- <para>For example,
- <filename>*.foo.bar</filename> is supported,

- Using <filename>BB_ALLOWED_NETWORKS</filename> in
- conjunction with
- <link linkend='var-bb-PREMIRRORS'><filename>PREMIRRORS</filename></link>
- is very useful.
- Adding the host you want to use to
- <filename>PREMIRRORS</filename> results in the source code
- being fetched from an allowed location and avoids raising
- an error when a host that is not allowed is in a
- <link linkend='var-bb-SRC_URI'><filename>SRC_URI</filename></link>
- statement.
- This is because the fetcher does not attempt to use the
- host listed in <filename>SRC_URI</filename> after a
- successful fetch from the
- <filename>PREMIRRORS</filename> occurs.

- WARN: Issue a warning but continue the
- build when a threshold is broken.
- Subsequent warnings are issued as

- <link linkend='var-bb-BB_DISKMON_WARNINTERVAL'>BB_DISKMON_WARNINTERVAL</link> variable,
- which must be defined.
-
- &lt;dir&gt; is:
- Any directory you choose. You can specify one or

- on the same device, only the first directory
- is monitored.
-
- &lt;threshold&gt; is:
- Either the minimum available disk space,
- the minimum number of free inodes, or
- both. You must specify at least one. To
- omit one or the other, simply omit the value.
- Specify the threshold using G, M, K for Gbytes,

- <glossdef>
- <para>
- Allows you to extend a recipe so that it builds variants
- of the software.
- Some examples of these variants for recipes from the
- OpenEmbedded-Core metadata are "natives" such as
- <filename>quilt-native</filename>, which is a copy of
- Quilt built to run on the build system; "crosses" such
- as <filename>gcc-cross</filename>, which is a compiler
- built to run on the build machine but produces binaries
- that run on the target <filename>MACHINE</filename>;
- "nativesdk", which targets the SDK machine instead of
- <filename>MACHINE</filename>; and "mulitlibs" in the form
- "<filename>multilib:</filename><replaceable>multilib_name</replaceable>".
- </para>
-
- <para>
- To build a different variant of the recipe with a minimal
- amount of code, it usually is as simple as adding the
- variable to your recipe.
- Here are two examples.
- The "native" variants are from the OpenEmbedded-Core
- metadata:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- BBCLASSEXTEND =+ "native nativesdk"
- BBCLASSEXTEND =+ "multilib:<replaceable>multilib_name</replaceable>"
- </literallayout>
- <note>
- <para>
- Internally, the <filename>BBCLASSEXTEND</filename>
- mechanism generates recipe variants by rewriting
- variable values and applying overrides such as
- <filename>_class-native</filename>.
- For example, to generate a native version of a recipe,
- a
- <link linkend='var-bb-DEPENDS'><filename>DEPENDS</filename></link>
- on "foo" is rewritten to a <filename>DEPENDS</filename>
- on "foo-native".
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Even when using <filename>BBCLASSEXTEND</filename>, the
- recipe is only parsed once.
- Parsing once adds some limitations.
- For example, it is not possible to
- include a different file depending on the variant,
- since <filename>include</filename> statements are
- processed when the recipe is parsed.

- <para>This variable is useful in situations where the same recipe appears in
- more than one layer.
- Setting this variable allows you to prioritize a
- layer against other layers that contain the same recipe - effectively
- letting you control the precedence for the multiple layers.
- The precedence established through this variable stands regardless of a
- recipe's version
- (<link linkend='var-bb-PV'><filename>PV</filename></link> variable).
- For example, a layer that has a recipe with a higher <filename>PV</filename> value but for
- which the <filename>BBFILE_PRIORITY</filename> is set to have a lower precedence still has a
- lower precedence.</para>
- <para>A larger value for the <filename>BBFILE_PRIORITY</filename> variable results in a higher
- precedence.
- For example, the value 6 has a higher precedence than the value 5.
- If not specified, the <filename>BBFILE_PRIORITY</filename> variable is set based on layer
- dependencies (see the
- <filename><link linkend='var-bb-LAYERDEPENDS'>LAYERDEPENDS</link></filename> variable for
- more information.
- The default priority, if unspecified
- for a layer with no dependencies, is the lowest defined priority + 1

- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- PREFERRED_PROVIDERS = "xxx:yyy aaa:bbb ..."

- you want to select, and you should set
- <link linkend='var-bb-PV'><filename>PV</filename></link>

- </para>
-
- <para>
- The <filename>PREFERRED_VERSION</filename> variable
- supports limited wildcard use through the
- "<filename>%</filename>" character.
- You can use the character to match any number of

- that contain long revision numbers that potentially change.
- Here are two examples:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- PREFERRED_VERSION_python = "2.7.3"
- PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-yocto = "4.12%"
- </literallayout>
- <note><title>Important</title>

- </para>
-
- <para>
- Typically, you would add a specific server for the

- http://.*/.* http://www.yoctoproject.org/sources/ \n \
- https://.*/.* http://www.yoctoproject.org/sources/ \n"
- </literallayout>
- These changes cause the build system to intercept

- In addition to providing recipes under alternate names,
- the <filename>PROVIDES</filename> mechanism is also used
- to implement virtual targets.
- A virtual target is a name that corresponds to some

- Because the <filename>RDEPENDS</filename> variable applies

- in a form with an attached package name.
- For example, suppose you are building a development package

- Generic XHTML / DocBook XHTML CSS Stylesheet.
-
- Browser wrangling and typographic design by
- Oyvind Kolas / pippin@gimp.org
-
- Customised for Poky by
- Matthew Allum / mallum@o-hand.com
-
- Thanks to:
- Liam R. E. Quin
- William Skaggs
- Jakub Steiner
-
- Structure
- ---------
-
- The stylesheet is divided into the following sections:
-
- Positioning
- Margins, paddings, width, font-size, clearing.
- Decorations
- Borders, style
- Colors
- Colors
- Graphics
- Graphical backgrounds
- Nasty IE tweaks
- Workarounds needed to make it work in internet explorer,
- currently makes the stylesheet non validating, but up until
- this point it is validating.
- Mozilla extensions
- Transparency for footer
- Rounded corners on boxes
