+Moving to the Yocto Project 2.6 Release
+=======================================
+
+This section provides migration information for moving to the Yocto
+Project 2.6 Release from the prior release.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-gcc-changes:
+
+GCC 8.2 is Now Used by Default
+------------------------------
+
+The GNU Compiler Collection version 8.2 is now used by default for
+compilation. For more information on what has changed in the GCC 8.x
+release, see https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-8/changes.html.
+
+If you still need to compile with version 7.x, GCC 7.3 is also provided.
+You can select this version by setting the and can be selected by
+setting the :term:`GCCVERSION` variable to "7.%" in
+your configuration.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-removed-recipes:

+
+.. _migration-2.6-packaging-changes:
+
+Packaging Changes
+-----------------
+
+The following packaging changes have been made:
+
+- *cmake*: ``cmake.m4`` and ``toolchain`` files have been moved to
+ the main package.
+
+- *iptables*: The ``iptables`` modules have been split into
+ separate packages.
+
+- *alsa-lib*: ``libasound`` is now in the main ``alsa-lib`` package
+ instead of ``libasound``.
+
+- *glibc*: ``libnss-db`` is now in its own package along with a
+ ``/var/db/makedbs.sh`` script to update databases.
+
+- *python and python3*: The main package has been removed from
+ the recipe. You must install specific packages or ``python-modules``
+ / ``python3-modules`` for everything.
+
+- *systemtap*: Moved ``systemtap-exporter`` into its own package.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-xorg-protocol-dependencies:
+
+XOrg Protocol dependencies
+--------------------------
+
+The ``*proto`` upstream repositories have been combined into one
+"xorgproto" repository. Thus, the corresponding recipes have also been
+combined into a single ``xorgproto`` recipe. Any recipes that depend
+upon the older ``*proto`` recipes need to be changed to depend on the
+newer ``xorgproto`` recipe instead.
+
+For names of recipes removed because of this repository change, see the
+`Removed Recipes <#migration-2.6-removed-recipes>`__ section.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-distutils-distutils3-fetching-dependencies:
+
+``distutils`` and ``distutils3`` Now Prevent Fetching Dependencies During the ``do_configure`` Task
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Previously, it was possible for Python recipes that inherited the
+:ref:`distutils <ref-classes-distutils>` and
+:ref:`distutils3 <ref-classes-distutils3>` classes to fetch code
+during the :ref:`ref-tasks-configure` task to satisfy
+dependencies mentioned in ``setup.py`` if those dependencies were not
+provided in the sysroot (i.e. recipes providing the dependencies were
+missing from :term:`DEPENDS`).
+
+.. note::
+
+ This change affects classes beyond just the two mentioned (i.e.
+ distutils
+ and
+ distutils3
+ ). Any recipe that inherits
+ distutils\*
+ classes are affected. For example, the
+ setuptools
+ and
+ setuptools3
+ recipes are affected since they inherit the
+ distutils\*
+ classes.
+
+Fetching these types of dependencies that are not provided in the
+sysroot negatively affects the ability to reproduce builds. This type of
+fetching is now explicitly disabled. Consequently, any missing
+dependencies in Python recipes that use these classes now result in an
+error during the ``do_configure`` task.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-linux-yocto-configuration-audit-issues-now-correctly-reported:
+
+``linux-yocto`` Configuration Audit Issues Now Correctly Reported
+-----------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Due to a bug, the kernel configuration audit functionality was not
+writing out any resulting warnings during the build. This issue is now
+corrected. You might notice these warnings now if you have a custom
+kernel configuration with a ``linux-yocto`` style kernel recipe.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-image-kernel-artifact-naming-changes:
+
+Image/Kernel Artifact Naming Changes
+------------------------------------
+
+The following changes have been made:
+
+- Name variables (e.g. :term:`IMAGE_NAME`) use a new
+ ``IMAGE_VERSION_SUFFIX`` variable instead of
+ :term:`DATETIME`. Using ``IMAGE_VERSION_SUFFIX``
+ allows easier and more direct changes.
+
+ The ``IMAGE_VERSION_SUFFIX`` variable is set in the ``bitbake.conf``
+ configuration file as follows:
+ ::
+
+ IMAGE_VERSION_SUFFIX = "-${DATETIME}"
+
+- Several variables have changed names for consistency:
+ ::
+
+ Old Variable Name New Variable Name
+ ========================================================
+ KERNEL_IMAGE_BASE_NAME :term:`KERNEL_IMAGE_NAME`
+ KERNEL_IMAGE_SYMLINK_NAME :term:`KERNEL_IMAGE_LINK_NAME`
+ MODULE_TARBALL_BASE_NAME :term:`MODULE_TARBALL_NAME`
+ MODULE_TARBALL_SYMLINK_NAME :term:`MODULE_TARBALL_LINK_NAME`
+ INITRAMFS_BASE_NAME :term:`INITRAMFS_NAME`
+
+- The ``MODULE_IMAGE_BASE_NAME`` variable has been removed. The module
+ tarball name is now controlled directly with the
+ :term:`MODULE_TARBALL_NAME` variable.
+
+- The :term:`KERNEL_DTB_NAME` and
+ :term:`KERNEL_DTB_LINK_NAME` variables
+ have been introduced to control kernel Device Tree Binary (DTB)
+ artifact names instead of mangling ``KERNEL_IMAGE_*`` variables.
+
+- The :term:`KERNEL_FIT_NAME` and
+ :term:`KERNEL_FIT_LINK_NAME` variables
+ have been introduced to specify the name of flattened image tree
+ (FIT) kernel images similar to other deployed artifacts.
+
+- The :term:`MODULE_TARBALL_NAME` and
+ :term:`MODULE_TARBALL_LINK_NAME`
+ variable values no longer include the "module-" prefix or ".tgz"
+ suffix. These parts are now hardcoded so that the values are
+ consistent with other artifact naming variables.
+
+- Added the :term:`INITRAMFS_LINK_NAME`
+ variable so that the symlink can be controlled similarly to other
+ artifact types.
+
+- :term:`INITRAMFS_NAME` now uses
+ "${PKGE}-${PKGV}-${PKGR}-${MACHINE}${IMAGE_VERSION_SUFFIX}" instead
+ of "${PV}-${PR}-${MACHINE}-${DATETIME}", which makes it consistent
+ with other variables.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-serial-console-deprecated:
+
+``SERIAL_CONSOLE`` Deprecated
+-----------------------------
+
+The :term:`SERIAL_CONSOLE` variable has been
+functionally replaced by the
+:term:`SERIAL_CONSOLES` variable for some time.
+With the Yocto Project 2.6 release, ``SERIAL_CONSOLE`` has been
+officially deprecated.
+
+``SERIAL_CONSOLE`` will continue to work as before for the 2.6 release.
+However, for the sake of future compatibility, it is recommended that
+you replace all instances of ``SERIAL_CONSOLE`` with
+``SERIAL_CONSOLES``.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The only difference in usage is that
+ SERIAL_CONSOLES
+ expects entries to be separated using semicolons as compared to
+ SERIAL_CONSOLE
+ , which expects spaces.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-poky-sets-unknown-configure-option-to-qa-error:
+
+Configure Script Reports Unknown Options as Errors
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+If the configure script reports an unknown option, this now triggers a
+QA error instead of a warning. Any recipes that previously got away with
+specifying such unknown options now need to be fixed.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-override-changes:
+
+Override Changes
+----------------
+
+The following changes have occurred:
+
+- The ``virtclass-native`` and ``virtclass-nativesdk`` Overrides Have
+ Been Removed: The ``virtclass-native`` and ``virtclass-nativesdk``
+ overrides have been deprecated since 2012 in favor of
+ ``class-native`` and ``class-nativesdk``, respectively. Both
+ ``virtclass-native`` and ``virtclass-nativesdk`` are now dropped.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The
+ virtclass-multilib-
+ overrides for multilib are still valid.
+
+- The ``forcevariable`` Override Now Has a Higher Priority Than
+ ``libc`` Overrides: The ``forcevariable`` override is documented to
+ be the highest priority override. However, due to a long-standing
+ quirk of how :term:`OVERRIDES` is set, the ``libc``
+ overrides (e.g. ``libc-glibc``, ``libc-musl``, and so forth)
+ erroneously had a higher priority. This issue is now corrected.
+
+ It is likely this change will not cause any problems. However, it is
+ possible with some unusual configurations that you might see a change
+ in behavior if you were relying on the previous behavior. Be sure to
+ check how you use ``forcevariable`` and ``libc-*`` overrides in your
+ custom layers and configuration files to ensure they make sense.
+
+- The ``build-${BUILD_OS}`` Override Has Been Removed: The
+ ``build-${BUILD_OS}``, which is typically ``build-linux``, override
+ has been removed because building on a host operating system other
+ than a recent version of Linux is neither supported nor recommended.
+ Dropping the override avoids giving the impression that other host
+ operating systems might be supported.
+
+- The "_remove" operator now preserves whitespace. Consequently, when
+ specifying list items to remove, be aware that leading and trailing
+ whitespace resulting from the removal is retained.
+
+ See the ":ref:`bitbake:removing-override-style-syntax`"
+ section in the BitBake User Manual for a detailed example.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-systemd-configuration-now-split-out-to-system-conf:
+
+``systemd`` Configuration is Now Split Into ``systemd-conf``
+------------------------------------------------------------
+
+The configuration for the ``systemd`` recipe has been moved into a
+``system-conf`` recipe. Moving this configuration to a separate recipe
+avoids the ``systemd`` recipe from becoming machine-specific for cases
+where machine-specific configurations need to be applied (e.g. for
+``qemu*`` machines).
+
+Currently, the new recipe packages the following files:
+::
+
+ ${sysconfdir}/machine-id
+ ${sysconfdir}/systemd/coredump.conf
+ ${sysconfdir}/systemd/journald.conf
+ ${sysconfdir}/systemd/logind.conf
+ ${sysconfdir}/systemd/system.conf
+ ${sysconfdir}/systemd/user.conf
+
+If you previously used bbappend files to append the ``systemd`` recipe to
+change any of the listed files, you must do so for the ``systemd-conf``
+recipe instead.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-automatic-testing-changes:
+
+Automatic Testing Changes
+-------------------------
+
+This section provides information about automatic testing changes:
+
+- ``TEST_IMAGE`` Variable Removed: Prior to this release, you set the
+ ``TEST_IMAGE`` variable to "1" to enable automatic testing for
+ successfully built images. The ``TEST_IMAGE`` variable no longer
+ exists and has been replaced by the
+ :term:`TESTIMAGE_AUTO` variable.
+
+- Inheriting the ``testimage`` and ``testsdk`` Classes: Best
+ practices now dictate that you use the
+ :term:`IMAGE_CLASSES` variable rather than the
+ :term:`INHERIT` variable when you inherit the
+ :ref:`testimage <ref-classes-testimage*>` and
+ :ref:`testsdk <ref-classes-testsdk>` classes used for automatic
+ testing.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-openssl-changes:
+
+OpenSSL Changes
+---------------
+
+`OpenSSL <https://www.openssl.org/>`__ has been upgraded from 1.0 to
+1.1. By default, this upgrade could cause problems for recipes that have
+both versions in their dependency chains. The problem is that both
+versions cannot be installed together at build time.
+
+.. note::
+
+ It is possible to have both versions of the library at runtime.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-bitbake-changes:
+
+BitBake Changes
+---------------
+
+The server logfile ``bitbake-cookerdaemon.log`` is now always placed in
+the :term:`Build Directory` instead of the current
+directory.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-security-changes:
+
+Security Changes
+----------------
+
+The Poky distribution now uses security compiler flags by default.
+Inclusion of these flags could cause new failures due to stricter
+checking for various potential security issues in code.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-post-installation-changes:
+
+Post Installation Changes
+-------------------------
+
+You must explicitly mark post installs to defer to the target. 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) triggers
+an error during the :ref:`ref-tasks-rootfs` task.
+
+For more information on post-installation behavior, see the
+":ref:`dev-manual/dev-manual-common-tasks:post-installation scripts`"
+section in the Yocto Project Development Tasks Manual.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-python-3-profile-guided-optimizations:
+
+Python 3 Profile-Guided Optimization
+------------------------------------
+
+The ``python3`` recipe now enables profile-guided optimization. Using
+this optimization requires a little extra build time in exchange for
+improved performance on the target at runtime. Additionally, the
+optimization is only enabled if the current
+:term:`MACHINE` has support for user-mode emulation in
+QEMU (i.e. "qemu-usermode" is in
+:term:`MACHINE_FEATURES`, which it is by
+default).
+
+If you wish to disable Python profile-guided optimization regardless of
+the value of ``MACHINE_FEATURES``, then ensure that
+:term:`PACKAGECONFIG` for the ``python3`` recipe
+does not contain "pgo". You could accomplish the latter using the
+following at the configuration level:
+::
+
+ PACKAGECONFIG_remove_pn-python3 = "pgo"
+
+Alternatively, you can set ``PACKAGECONFIG`` using an append file
+for the ``python3`` recipe.
+
+.. _migration-2.6-miscellaneous-changes:
+
+Miscellaneous Changes
+---------------------
+
+The following miscellaneous changes occurred:
+
+- Default to using the Thumb-2 instruction set for armv7a and above. If
+ you have any custom recipes that build software that needs to be
+ built with the ARM instruction set, change the recipe to set the
+ instruction set as follows:
+ ::
+
+ ARM_INSTRUCTION_SET = "arm"
+
+- ``run-postinsts`` no longer uses ``/etc/*-postinsts`` for
+ ``dpkg/opkg`` in favor of built-in postinst support. RPM behavior
+ remains unchanged.
+
+- The ``NOISO`` and ``NOHDD`` variables are no longer used. You now
+ control building ``*.iso`` and ``*.hddimg`` image types directly by
+ using the :term:`IMAGE_FSTYPES` variable.
+
+- The ``scripts/contrib/mkefidisk.sh`` has been removed in favor of
+ Wic.
+
+- ``kernel-modules`` has been removed from
+ :term:`RRECOMMENDS` for ``qemumips`` and
+ ``qemumips64`` machines. Removal also impacts the ``x86-base.inc``
+ file.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ genericx86
+ and
+ genericx86-64
+ retain
+ kernel-modules
+ as part of the
+ RRECOMMENDS
+ variable setting.
+
+- The ``LGPLv2_WHITELIST_GPL-3.0`` variable has been removed. If you
+ are setting this variable in your configuration, set or append it to
+ the ``WHITELIST_GPL-3.0`` variable instead.
+
+- ``${ASNEEDED}`` is now included in the
+ :term:`TARGET_LDFLAGS` variable directly. The
+ remaining definitions from ``meta/conf/distro/include/as-needed.inc``
+ have been moved to corresponding recipes.
+
+- Support for DSA host keys has been dropped from the OpenSSH recipes.
+ If you are still using DSA keys, you must switch over to a more
+ secure algorithm as recommended by OpenSSH upstream.
+
+- The ``dhcp`` recipe now uses the ``dhcpd6.conf`` configuration file
+ in ``dhcpd6.service`` for IPv6 DHCP rather than re-using
+ ``dhcpd.conf``, which is now reserved for IPv4.
+
+
