PATCH 1/1 kernel.bbclass: avoid duplicates in KERNEL_IMAGETYPE_FOR_MAKE

Currently if KERNEL_IMAGETYPES contains both vmlinux and vmlinux.gz, KERNEL_IMAGETYPE_FOR_MAKE will end up containing two copies of vmlinux, which will result in two calls to "make vmlinux" from kernel_do_compile().

Avoid duplicating vmlinux in KERNEL_IMAGETYPE_FOR_MAKE plus some minor non-functional updates to formatting and comments.

Hi Andre,

Quoted 37 lines · Andre McCurdy

Currently if KERNEL_IMAGETYPES contains both vmlinux and vmlinux.gz, KERNEL_IMAGETYPE_FOR_MAKE will end up containing two copies of vmlinux, which will result in two calls to "make vmlinux" from kernel_do_compile().

Avoid duplicating vmlinux in KERNEL_IMAGETYPE_FOR_MAKE plus some minor non-functional updates to formatting and comments.

I think this hunk go be better implemented using a python set(), e.g. something like this (untested) piece:

Quoted 10 lines
meta/classes/kernel.bbclass +0 -0
 typeformake = set()
 post_extensions = ('gz', 'xz', 'bz2')

for type in types.split():

    extsplit = type.rsplit('.', 1)
    if len(extsplit) == 2 and extsplit[1] in post_extensions:
        typeformake.add(extsplit[0])
    else:
        typeformake.add(type)

d.setVar('KERNEL_IMAGETYPE_FOR_MAKE', " ".join(typeformake))

This should allow easier addition of other OE-supported extensions...
