+Moving to the Yocto Project 2.5 Release
+=======================================
+
+This section provides migration information for moving to the Yocto
+Project 2.5 Release from the prior release.
+
+.. _migration-2.5-packaging-changes:
+
+Packaging Changes
+-----------------
+
+This section provides information about packaging changes that have
+occurred:
+
+- ``bind-libs``: The libraries packaged by the bind recipe are in a
+ separate ``bind-libs`` package.
+
+- ``libfm-gtk``: The ``libfm`` GTK+ bindings are split into a
+ separate ``libfm-gtk`` package.
+
+- ``flex-libfl``: The flex recipe splits out libfl into a separate
+ ``flex-libfl`` package to avoid too many dependencies being pulled in
+ where only the library is needed.
+
+- ``grub-efi``: The ``grub-efi`` configuration is split into a
+ separate ``grub-bootconf`` recipe. However, the dependency
+ relationship from ``grub-efi`` is through a virtual/grub-bootconf
+ provider making it possible to have your own recipe provide the
+ dependency. Alternatively, you can use a BitBake append file to bring
+ the configuration back into the ``grub-efi`` recipe.
+
+- *armv7a Legacy Package Feed Support:* Legacy support is removed for
+ transitioning from ``armv7a`` to ``armv7a-vfp-neon`` in package
+ feeds, which was previously enabled by setting
+ ``PKGARCHCOMPAT_ARMV7A``. This transition occurred in 2011 and active
+ package feeds should by now be updated to the new naming.
+
+.. _migration-2.5-removed-recipes:
+
+Removed Recipes
+---------------
+
+The following recipes have been removed:
+
+- ``gcc``: The version 6.4 recipes are replaced by 7.x.
+
+- ``gst-player``: Renamed to ``gst-examples`` as per upstream.
+
+- ``hostap-utils``: This software package is obsolete.
+
+- ``latencytop``: This recipe is no longer maintained upstream. The
+ last release was in 2009.
+
+- ``libpfm4``: The only file that requires this recipe is
+ ``oprofile``, which has been removed.
+
+- ``linux-yocto``: The version 4.4, 4.9, and 4.10 recipes have been
+ removed. Versions 4.12, 4.14, and 4.15 remain.
+
+- ``man``: This recipe has been replaced by modern ``man-db``
+
+- ``mkelfimage``: This tool has been removed in the upstream coreboot
+ project, and is no longer needed with the removal of the ELF image
+ type.
+
+- ``nativesdk-postinst-intercept``: This recipe is not maintained.
+
+- ``neon``: This software package is no longer maintained upstream
+ and is no longer needed by anything in OpenEmbedded-Core.
+
+- ``oprofile``: The functionality of this recipe is replaced by
+ ``perf`` and keeping compatibility on an ongoing basis with ``musl``
+ is difficult.
+
+- ``pax``: This software package is obsolete.
+
+- ``stat``: This software package is not maintained upstream.
+ ``coreutils`` provides a modern stat binary.
+
+- ``zisofs-tools-native``: This recipe is no longer needed because
+ the compressed ISO image feature has been removed.

+
+Scripts and Tools Changes
+-------------------------
+
+The following are changes to scripts and tools:
+
+- ``yocto-bsp``, ``yocto-kernel``, and ``yocto-layer``: The
+ ``yocto-bsp``, ``yocto-kernel``, and ``yocto-layer`` scripts
+ previously shipped with poky but not in OpenEmbedded-Core have been
+ removed. These scripts are not maintained and are outdated. In many
+ cases, they are also limited in scope. The
+ ``bitbake-layers create-layer`` command is a direct replacement for
+ ``yocto-layer``. See the documentation to create a BSP or kernel
+ recipe in the ":ref:`bsp-guide/bsp:bsp kernel recipe example`" section.
+
+- ``devtool finish``: ``devtool finish`` now exits with an error if
+ there are uncommitted changes or a rebase/am in progress in the
+ recipe's source repository. If this error occurs, there might be
+ uncommitted changes that will not be included in updates to the
+ patches applied by the recipe. A -f/--force option is provided for
+ situations that the uncommitted changes are inconsequential and you
+ want to proceed regardless.
+
+- ``scripts/oe-setup-rpmrepo`` script: The functionality of
+ ``scripts/oe-setup-rpmrepo`` is replaced by
+ ``bitbake package-index``.
+
+- ``scripts/test-dependencies.sh`` script: The script is largely made
+ obsolete by the recipe-specific sysroots functionality introduced in
+ the previous release.
+
+.. _migration-2.5-bitbake-changes:
+
+BitBake Changes
+---------------
+
+The following are BitBake changes:
+
+- The ``--runall`` option has changed. There are two different
+ behaviors people might want:
+
+ - *Behavior A:* For a given target (or set of targets) look through
+ the task graph and run task X only if it is present and will be
+ built.
+
+ - *Behavior B:* For a given target (or set of targets) look through
+ the task graph and run task X if any recipe in the taskgraph has
+ such a target, even if it is not in the original task graph.
+
+ The ``--runall`` option now performs "Behavior B". Previously
+ ``--runall`` behaved like "Behavior A". A ``--runonly`` option has
+ been added to retain the ability to perform "Behavior A".
+
+- Several explicit "run this task for all recipes in the dependency
+ tree" tasks have been removed (e.g. ``fetchall``, ``checkuriall``,
+ and the ``*all`` tasks provided by the ``distrodata`` and
+ ``archiver`` classes). There is a BitBake option to complete this for
+ any arbitrary task. For example:
+ ::
+
+ bitbake <target> -c fetchall
+
+ should now be replaced with:
+ ::
+
+ bitbake <target> --runall=fetch
+
+.. _migration-2.5-python-and-python3-changes:
+
+Python and Python 3 Changes
+---------------------------
+
+The following are auto-packaging changes to Python and Python 3:
+
+The script-managed ``python-*-manifest.inc`` files that were previously
+used to generate Python and Python 3 packages have been replaced with a
+JSON-based file that is easier to read and maintain. A new task is
+available for maintainers of the Python recipes to update the JSON file
+when upgrading to new Python versions. You can now edit the file
+directly instead of having to edit a script and run it to update the
+file.
+
+One particular change to note is that the Python recipes no longer have
+build-time provides for their packages. This assumes ``python-foo`` is
+one of the packages provided by the Python recipe. You can no longer run
+``bitbake python-foo`` or have a
+:term:`DEPENDS` on ``python-foo``,
+but doing either of the following causes the package to work as
+expected: ::
+
+ IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " python-foo"
+
+or ::
+
+ RDEPENDS_${PN} = "python-foo"
+
+The earlier build-time provides behavior was a quirk of the
+way the Python manifest file was created. For more information on this
+change please see `this
+commit <http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=8d94b9db221d1def42f091b991903faa2d1651ce>`__.
+
+.. _migration-2.5-miscellaneous-changes:
+
+Miscellaneous Changes
+---------------------
+
+The following are additional changes:
+
+- The ``kernel`` class supports building packages for multiple kernels.
+ If your kernel recipe or ``.bbappend`` file mentions packaging at
+ all, you should replace references to the kernel in package names
+ with ``${KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME}``. For example, if you disable
+ automatic installation of the kernel image using
+ ``RDEPENDS_kernel-base = ""`` you can avoid warnings using
+ ``RDEPENDS_${KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME}-base = ""`` instead.
+
+- The ``buildhistory`` class commits changes to the repository by
+ default so you no longer need to set ``BUILDHISTORY_COMMIT = "1"``.
+ If you want to disable commits you need to set
+ ``BUILDHISTORY_COMMIT = "0"`` in your configuration.
+
+- The ``beaglebone`` reference machine has been renamed to
+ ``beaglebone-yocto``. The ``beaglebone-yocto`` BSP is a reference
+ implementation using only mainline components available in
+ OpenEmbedded-Core and ``meta-yocto-bsp``, whereas Texas Instruments
+ maintains a full-featured BSP in the ``meta-ti`` layer. This rename
+ avoids the previous name clash that existed between the two BSPs.
+
+- The ``update-alternatives`` class no longer works with SysV ``init``
+ scripts because this usage has been problematic. Also, the
+ ``sysklogd`` recipe no longer uses ``update-alternatives`` because it
+ is incompatible with other implementations.
+
+- By default, the :ref:`cmake <ref-classes-cmake>` class uses
+ ``ninja`` instead of ``make`` for building. This improves build
+ performance. If a recipe is broken with ``ninja``, then the recipe
+ can set ``OECMAKE_GENERATOR = "Unix Makefiles"`` to change back to
+ ``make``.
+
+- The previously deprecated ``base_*`` functions have been removed in
+ favor of their replacements in ``meta/lib/oe`` and
+ ``bitbake/lib/bb``. These are typically used from recipes and
+ classes. Any references to the old functions must be updated. The
+ following table shows the removed functions and their replacements:
+
+ +------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | *Removed* | *Replacement* |
+ +==============================+==========================================================+
+ | base_path_join() | oe.path.join() |
+ +------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | base_path_relative() | oe.path.relative() |
+ +------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | base_path_out() | oe.path.format_display() |
+ +------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | base_read_file() | oe.utils.read_file() |
+ +------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | base_ifelse() | oe.utils.ifelse() |
+ +------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | base_conditional() | oe.utils.conditional() |
+ +------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | base_less_or_equal() | oe.utils.less_or_equal() |
+ +------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | base_version_less_or_equal() | oe.utils.version_less_or_equal() |
+ +------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | base_contains() | bb.utils.contains() |
+ +------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | base_both_contain() | oe.utils.both_contain() |
+ +------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | base_prune_suffix() | oe.utils.prune_suffix() |
+ +------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | oe_filter() | oe.utils.str_filter() |
+ +------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | oe_filter_out() | oe.utils.str_filter_out() (or use the \_remove operator) |
+ +------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+
+- Using ``exit 1`` to explicitly defer a postinstall script until first
+ boot is now deprecated since it is not an obvious mechanism and can
+ mask actual errors. If you want to explicitly defer a postinstall to
+ first boot on the target rather than at ``rootfs`` creation time, use
+ ``pkg_postinst_ontarget()`` or call
+ ``postinst_intercept delay_to_first_boot`` from ``pkg_postinst()``.
+ Any failure of a ``pkg_postinst()`` script (including ``exit 1``)
+ will trigger a warning during ``do_rootfs``.
+
+ For more information, see the
+ ":ref:`dev-manual/dev-manual-common-tasks:post-installation scripts`"
+ section in the Yocto Project Development Tasks Manual.
+
+- The ``elf`` image type has been removed. This image type was removed
+ because the ``mkelfimage`` tool that was required to create it is no
+ longer provided by coreboot upstream and required updating every time
+ ``binutils`` updated.
+
+- Support for .iso image compression (previously enabled through
+ ``COMPRESSISO = "1"``) has been removed. The userspace tools
+ (``zisofs-tools``) are unmaintained and ``squashfs`` provides better
+ performance and compression. In order to build a live image with
+ squashfs+lz4 compression enabled you should now set
+ ``LIVE_ROOTFS_TYPE = "squashfs-lz4"`` and ensure that ``live`` is in
+ ``IMAGE_FSTYPES``.
+
+- Recipes with an unconditional dependency on ``libpam`` are only
+ buildable with ``pam`` in ``DISTRO_FEATURES``. If the dependency is
+ truly optional then it is recommended that the dependency be
+ conditional upon ``pam`` being in ``DISTRO_FEATURES``.
+
+- For EFI-based machines, the bootloader (``grub-efi`` by default) is
+ installed into the image at /boot. Wic can be used to split the
+ bootloader into separate boot and rootfs partitions if necessary.
+
+- Patches whose context does not match exactly (i.e. where patch
+ reports "fuzz" when applying) will generate a warning. For an example
+ of this see `this
+ commit <http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=cc97bc08125b63821ce3f616771830f77c456f57>`__.
+
+- Layers are expected to set ``LAYERSERIES_COMPAT_layername`` to match
+ the version(s) of OpenEmbedded-Core they are compatible with. This is
+ specified as codenames using spaces to separate multiple values (e.g.
+ "rocko sumo"). If a layer does not set
+ ``LAYERSERIES_COMPAT_layername``, a warning will is shown. If a layer
+ sets a value that does not include the current version ("sumo" for
+ the 2.5 release), then an error will be produced.
+
+- The ``TZ`` environment variable is set to "UTC" within the build
+ environment in order to fix reproducibility problems in some recipes.
