- The <filename>image-live</filename> class supports building "live"
- images.
+ This class controls building "live" (i.e. HDDIMG and ISO) images.
+ Live images contain syslinux for legacy booting, as well as the
+ bootloader specified by
+ <link linkend='var-EFI_PROVIDER'><filename>EFI_PROVIDER</filename></link>
+ if
+ <link linkend='var-MACHINE_FEATURES'><filename>MACHINE_FEATURES</filename></link>
+ contains "efi".
</para>
<para>
Normally, you do not use this class directly.
Instead, you add "live" to
<link linkend='var-IMAGE_FSTYPES'><filename>IMAGE_FSTYPES</filename></link>.
+ You can selectively build just one of these types through the
+ <link linkend='var-NOISO'><filename>NOISO</filename></link>
+ and
+ <link linkend='var-NOHDD'><filename>NOHDD</filename></link> variables.
For example, if you were building an ISO image, you would add "live"
to <filename>IMAGE_FSTYPES</filename>, set the
- <link linkend='var-NOISO'><filename>NOISO</filename></link> variable to
- "0" and the build system would use the <filename>image-live</filename>
- class to build the ISO image.
+ <filename>NOISO</filename> variable to "0" and the build system would
+ use the <filename>image-live</filename> class to build the ISO image.

+ The code in the <filename>staging</filename> class is complex and
+ basically works in two stages:
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem><para>
+ <emphasis>Stage One:</emphasis>
+ The first stage addresses recipes that have files they want
+ to share with other recipes that have dependencies on the
+ originating recipe.
+ Normally these dependencies are installed through the
+ <link linkend='ref-tasks-install'><filename>do_install</filename></link>
+ task into
+ <filename>${</filename><link linkend='var-D'><filename>D</filename></link><filename>}</filename>.
+ The <filename>do_populate_sysroot</filename> task copies
+ a subset of these files into
+ <filename>${SYSROOT_DESTDIR}</filename>.
+ This subset of files is controlled by the
+ <link linkend='var-SYSROOT_DIRS'><filename>SYSROOT_DIRS</filename></link>,
+ <link linkend='var-SYSROOT_DIRS_NATIVE'><filename>SYSROOT_DIRS_NATIVE</filename></link>,
+ and
+ <link linkend='var-SYSROOT_DIRS_BLACKLIST'><filename>SYSROOT_DIRS_BLACKLIST</filename></link>
+ variables.
+ <note>
+ Additionally, a recipe can customize the files further by
+ declaring a processing function in the
+ <link linkend='var-SYSROOT_PREPROCESS_FUNCS'><filename>SYSROOT_PREPROCESS_FUNCS</filename></link>
+ variable.
+ </note>
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ A shared state (sstate) object is built from these files
+ and the files are placed into a subdirectory of
+ <link linkend='structure-build-tmp-sysroots-components'><filename>tmp/sysroots-components/</filename></link>.
+ The files are scanned for hardcoded paths to the original
+ installation location.
+ If the location is found in text files, the hardcoded
+ locations are replaced by tokens and a list of the files
+ needing such replacements is created.
+ These adjustments are referred to as "FIXMEs".
+ The list of files that are scanned for paths is controlled by
+ the
+ <link linkend='var-SSTATE_SCAN_FILES'><filename>SSTATE_SCAN_FILES</filename></link>
+ variable.
+ </para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>
+ <emphasis>Stage Two:</emphasis>
+ The second stage addresses recipes that want to use something
+ from another recipe and declare a dependency on that recipe
+ through the
+ <link linkend='var-DEPENDS'><filename>DEPENDS</filename></link>
+ variable.
+ The recipe will have a
+ <link linkend='ref-tasks-prepare_recipe_sysroot'><filename>do_prepare_recipe_sysroot</filename></link>
+ task and when
+ this task executes, it creates the
+ <filename>recipe-sysroot</filename> and
+ <filename>recipe-sysroot-native</filename> in the recipe
+ work directory (i.e.
+ <link linkend='var-WORKDIR'><filename>WORKDIR</filename></link>).
+ The OpenEmbedded build system creates hard links to copies of the
+ relevant files from <filename>sysroots-components</filename>
+ into the recipe work directory.
+ <note>
+ If hard links are not possible, the build system uses
+ actual copies.
+ </note>
+ The build system then addresses any "FIXMEs" to paths as
+ defined from the list created in the first stage.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Finally, any files in <filename>${bindir}</filename>
+ within the sysroot that have the prefix
+ "<filename>postinst-</filename>" are executed.
+ <note>
+ Although such sysroot post installation scripts are not
+ recommended for general use, the files do allow some issues
+ such as user creation and module indexes to be addressed.
+ </note>
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Because recipes can have other dependencies outside of
+ <filename>DEPENDS</filename> (e.g.
+ <filename>do_unpack[depends] += "tar-native:do_populate_sysroot"</filename>),
+ the sysroot creation function
+ <filename>extend_recipe_sysroot</filename> is also added as
+ a pre-function for those tasks whose dependencies are not
+ through <filename>DEPENDS</filename> but operate similarly.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ When installing dependencies into the sysroot, the code
+ traverses the dependency graph and processes dependencies
+ in exactly the same way as the dependencies would or would not
+ be when installed from sstate.
+ This processing means, for example, a native tool would have
+ its native dependencies added but a target library would not
+ have its dependencies traversed or installed.
+ The same sstate dependency code is used so that
+ builds should be identical regardless of whether sstate
+ was used or not.
+ For a closer look, see the
+ <filename>setscene_depvalid()</filename> function in the
+ <link linkend='ref-classes-sstate'><filename>sstate</filename></link>
+ class.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The build system is careful to maintain manifests of the files
+ it installs so that any given dependency can be installed as
+ needed.
+ The sstate hash of the installed item is also stored so that
+ if it changes, the build system can reinstall it.
