* xen, xen-tools: update recipes for python3Christopher Clark2020-02-271-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adds patches for packaged scripts to enable deployment with python3 where they have been ported to python 3 upstream. setuptools3 inherits distutils3 which modifies ${B}, so cd ${S} is needed in the do_configure, do_compile and do_install steps. Remove python 2 dependency from the Xen recipes by adding a new separate recipe, xen-python2, for packaging the remaining optional scripts which are yet to be ported to python 3. Package naming in the separate recipe is chosen to support transition back into the xen-tools recipe if the scripts are ported later. Use RSUGGESTS to support inclusion of the xen-python2 scripts in images that include python 2. Drop the remus package python dependency since the script was removed in 2014: commit 5b66f84e37a45038f9e5dae7a5768a5525d1e6ba Add python3 RDEPENDS needed to run xenmon.

* xen: separate recipes for hypervisor and tools; switch to git as sourceChristopher Clark2020-02-271-0/+18
This change changes the names of many packages produced: the xen-tools recipe now builds packages previous built by the xen recipe, so the package prefix changes from "xen-" to "xen-tools-". A temporary bbappend is provided for qemu to ease the transition. Multiple motivations for recipe separation: - improves efficiency of incremental build and development - supports building the hypervisor and tools with different toolchains and for different architectures Switch to using a git recipe on the Xen stable branch: - enables easier tracking of critical XSA security updates applied upstream by just advancing SRCREV along the branch Revision has been set to the tip of the stable-4.12 branch, which has the one XSA-312 patch applied on top of RELEASE-4.12.2. The recipe refactor externalizes the block tap components, to enable optional building of blktap in a separate recipe outside xen-tools, needed by OpenXT. xenstored is made a virtual package to support switching between alternative implementations (several exist). Update xen-image-minimal to install the xen-tools package, which replaces what was previously xen-base. Determine the flask policy filename, which is Xen-version specific, using the same method as the Xen build system. qemu: update PACKAGECONFIG[xen] for xen package renaming: allows builds to continue correctly in the meantime while openembedded core and poky are updated.
