The output used '' but we want to see the loaded variables so
"" is needed.

Each bootscript receipe provides the scriptname.
The distro will pull the correct script later.

For tanaro a bootscript for u-boot is needed.
Use install scripts also for tanaro.

Because we store some boot information (bootselect) data in the PCF8563
we need to modify the driver in a way that it does not reset the RTC
registers. However, we do not want to push this into the kernel so we
decided to create an out-of-tree fork.

Then, however, both drivers the in-kernel and out-of-tree driver
conflicting each other, and thus build the former as module and do not
load it by default.

The regulator was left on in error case, but devm/regulator core
complained about it.

removes esp.:
 * lock debugging and debugging sysmbols for variables, etc.
 * support for i.MX3x, i.MX5x, i.MX6 non-ULL SoCs, i.MX8x
 * support for IPUv1, IPUv3, VPUs, GPUs
 * support for DVB and IR remote control modules

reduces (compressed) kernel size from almost 10 MB to just
under 6 MB. (uncompressed kernel is still almost twice as big as the
Rocko 4.9.88 kernel for 6ULL, though)

create_merge_request: optimize description

Restore the "---" separator which was removed in a previous commit. The
description simply must not start with this separator. If we include it
only in between the blocks, all instances are rendered as a horizontal
line, which makes the MR description more readable. Include a helper
function for this purpose, which extracts the message body from a commit
message.

Add deploy stage

The jobs in the deploy stage have to be triggered manually in GitLab.
There is one deploy job for each project which uses the gitlab-ci
scripts as a submodule, so that the deployment can be performed step by
step.

If executed within MR context, an integration MR is created and left
open. The user can extend this integration MR, e.g. if CI scripts have
been renamed, changed command line arguments or other changes requiring
updates of the correspronding .gitlab-ci.yml file. Subsequent runs of
this job will re-create the integration branch, so manual changes are
lost in this case.

If executed on the master branch (i.e. after the source MR has been
merged), the job does exactly the same, plus the integration MR will be
automatically merged. If this fails, the job will fail as well.

merge_into_manifest: add wait loop until MR has been updated

We still had cases where a merge request was rebased multiple times after an
initial (actually required) rebase:

https://gitlab.com/garz-fricke/yocto/infrastructure/ci-test/minimal-bar/-/jobs/1345964713

I assume that GitLab simply does not update the MR that fast and so we attempt
to do a rebase, while the MR still reports it is merge-ready.

Adding a wait loop now where the MR's sha is compared to the one of the new
commit in order to make sure that the MR has been updated before we attempt
another rebase.

accept_merge_request: add additional error handling

We had one case where the merge() function returned successfully, but the MR
was not merged (needed a rebase actually):

https://gitlab.com/garz-fricke/yocto/infrastructure/ci-test/minimal-bar/-/jobs/1345574290

This seems to be a known issue:

https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/59577
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/release-tools/-/issues/277#note_154733089

It seems like in these rare cases, the error is reflected in the merge_error
field. Add evaluation of this to the error handling.

retrigger_mr_pipeline_job: prevent rare exception where MR has no pipeline

There are rare cases where a merge request does not have a pipeline, even
though this might only occur under testing circumstances, e.g.:

https://gitlab.com/garz-fricke/yocto/infrastructure/ci-test/minimal-foo/-/merge_requests/58

The retrigger_mr_pipeline_job script throws an exception in these cases:

https://gitlab.com/garz-fricke/yocto/infrastructure/ci-test/minimal-manifest/-/jobs/1345385316

Fix this by checking for existing pipeline before querying it.

merge_into_manifest: add merge_status check before merge attempt

We had some cases where the merge job added rebases of a commit where rebasing
was not necessary at all, e.g.:
https://gitlab.com/garz-fricke/yocto/layers/meta-guf-machine/-/jobs/1270293595

This is obviously a known issue in GitLab concerning the HTTP return value of
the merge endpoint:
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/196962

Suggested workaround is to manually check merge_status and wait until it is
ready before attempting to merge the MR.

Somehow the relocation is done with before switching on the caches
which is very slow when the load address is too close to the final
kernel location.

So ganz 100% verstanden hab ich den Code in „boot/compressed/head.S“ zwar nicht, aber es sieht so aus, als erwartet der Code am Anfang des phys. RAMs Platz, um eine MMU-Tabelle anlegen zu können (16KB) – die ist notwendig um MMU und Caches einschalten zu können – und überprüft dabei, in welchem Adressbereich der Code selbst gerade läuft.
·         Kommt er zu dem Schluss, dass da genug Platz ist,
o   schaltet er zuerst MMU und Caches ein,
o   verschiebt sich selbst, den komprimierten Kernel und den DTB mit allerlei Pointer-Anpassungen irgendwohin, wo er beim Auspacken nicht überschrieben werden kann
o   und erledigt dann das Entpacken.
·         Sind zwischen phys. Start des RAMs und laufendem Code weniger als 16KB + eine kleine Reserve von 1 MB (für schlechte Zeiten oder so…) Platz
o   Verschiebt sich der Code selbst, den komprimierten Kernel und den DTB mit allerlei Pointer-Anpassungen zuerst irgendwohin, wo er beim Auspacken nicht überschrieben werden kann
o   Startet sich selbst dann neu
o   Schaltet dann erst MMU und Caches ein
o   Und erledigt dann das Entpacken

Sprich: wird der gepackte Kernel irgendwo in die ersten gut 1MB des phys. RAM-Bereichs geladen und von da gestartet, läuft die ganze Relokation mit ausgeschalteten Caches, was auf dem 6ULL offenbar so langsam ist, dass es nur noch tröpfelt…
(Da der 6ULL nur ein 16-Bit RAM Interface hat und mit abgeschalteter MMU keinerlei Caching, Buffering o.ä. stattfindet, müssten schon nur für einen einzigen 32-Bit RAM-Zugriff zwei vollständige DDR3-Lese-Bursts ausgelöst werden, die jeweils 8x16-Bit liefern (DDR3 RAM macht immer 8-fach Burst), wovon aber jeweils nur die ersten 16 Bit tatsächlich verwendet werden. Da kann man die Daten wohl genauso gut auch per Rauchzeichen übertragen…)

The gitpkgv.bbclass states:
```
gitpkgv.bbclass assumes the git repository has been cloned, and
contains SRCREV. So ${GITPKGV} and ${GITPKGVTAG} should never be
used in PV, only in PKGV.  It can handle SRCREV = ${AUTOREV}, as
well as SRCREV = "<some fixed git hash>".
```
Change the version variables from PV to PKGV.

Add the USB3503 HSIC USB-hub driver. This should  enable the internal

It seems to mess with the out-of-tree SIS vendor driver. Thus get rid of
the in-kernel driver for now from the linux defconfig and use the
sis-i2c vendor driver instead.

The touchgpio driver uses a problematic function
gpio_sysfs_set_active_low that changed the semantics in Linux v4.2´.

It uses the gpiolib framework now based on the gpiod framework.
The simple solution is to disable the only user of the export
functionality in the SIS driver.

As we use u-boot from the freescale layer for imx8 and u-boot from
meta-guf-machine in imx6ull there was some mixup with the include files.

Do not rely on patches that have been available in poky to reduce the
dependency between the layers.

lzop was missing during kernel image build.

The SMDMA needs a firmware blob. It could be added to the Linux kernel,
however it is easier to add the SDMA support as module.

Use the ```make savedefconfig``` to generate a minimal and portable
defconfig.

Add the i.MX6 Dual/Quad Plus variant of the G&F SANTOKA device tree to
the image. With this it can be installed and it boots up. There seems to
be an issue with OpenGL or Qt applications on my 900-3577R device, but
the framebuffer seems to be OK.

With the recent adaption it is possible to build the iMX6 based G&F
platforms with the latest LTS kernel version 5.10.32.

Thus change the preferred Linux kernel version to 5.10.32. Use a weak
assignment to be able to override this in the local.conf.

BCS 746-000295

Add the linux-guf-5.10 recipe and copy the files form 5.4.

Do not use the
use-pkg-config-native-to-find-host-lcrypto-in-sysroot.patch because it

Also assign PREFERRED_VERSION of the linux-guf recipe weakly to be able
to overwrite this in the local.conf

Only tested with imx6guf.

Due to changes in the procfs exports in Kernel version 5.6, the change
of touch drivers are necessary.

Mainly because of the change
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20191225172546.GB13378@avx2/ that changed
the proc_create file operations  from sruct file_operations to proc_ops.

The ilitek driver needed adjustments because of the transition from time
to ktime.

BCS 746-000295

Add the TANARO device tree with the QP-070WSVGAMMLI1S
glass-touch-display-set also to the boot partition.

The ilitek driver could not be built out-of-tree because of legacy
functions that are not exported anymore in later kernels
(vfs_{read,write}).

Rewrite the driver to use the newer kernel_{read,write} functions.

Also reduce the stack size of the ilitek_sensortest_write function to
fit the defaule CONFIG_FRAME_WARN size being used for our 32bit
systems.

bitbake complains about the trailing slash:

Removed in in the include file.

During upgrade I noticed, that we introduced a depency between the layer
version using include file from one layer in our layer.
This patch copies the current version into this layer so the old version
of u-boot should also build if the u-boot version in poky does change.
