build: add support for python3.11 and higher

2022-10-05T20:21:18Z

python3.11 beta is out but fails to run the makefile currently this supports python versions from 3.6 to 3.99 with the python3 binary it also checks specifically for 3.11 as it is the latest version out Signed-off-by: Oscar Molnar (cherry picked from commit a9e8eec221874e5840d659aed3f68850ff1d9982) Signed-off-by: Michal Vasilek [rebase for 21.02]

build: provide xxd -i with scripts/xxdi.pl

2022-09-21T09:52:40Z

Dependency on xxd was added in commit c4dd2441e787 ("tools: add xxd (from vim)") as U-Boot requires xxd to create the default environment from an external file. Later in commit 2b94aac7a128 ("tools: xxd: use more convenient source tarball"), xxd from another source was used instead, but that source is currently unavailable, so let's fix it by using simple xxdi.pl Perl script instead.

build: fix ldconfig executable error in python

2022-07-04T08:08:08Z

The empty executable is causing problems with meson builds, due to the error: OSError: [Errno 8] Exec format error: 'ldconfig' This patch changes the empty ldconfig stub to symlink to /bin/true to work around this issue.

build: prereq detect Python 3.10 for `python3` binary

2021-10-13T05:19:30Z

While the binary `python3.10` is correctly detected by the build system the default `python3` binary is currently not detected if pointing to a Python 3.10 installation. Fix this by extending the grep regex. Signed-off-by: Paul Spooren (cherry picked from commit 56ea2bf2eec431ccd3c566190a444ad63db39b65)

prereq-build: require python3-distutils

2021-08-28T13:48:08Z

Debian and Ubuntu ship a python3-minimal package which does not include the distutils module. This is not supported by upstream and can be considered a broken python distribution. In practice, many scripts depend on said module, and this is a reoccuring pain point for building various OpenWrt packages. Require and check for said module, enough time has been wasted on this.

Extend checks on build prerequisites for building OpenWRT core

2021-05-08T10:45:55Z

OpenWRT requires a number of Perl modules to be installed. It wasn't checking on all of them. This patch adds checks for Perl FindBin, File::Copy, File::Compare and Thread::Queue modules. Failing to install these, will have the build break at some point. By adding these to the prereq-build.mk script, they are checked on forehand. Tested on a Fedora 33 and 34 (beta) that was freshly installed. Fedora appears to break up Perl modules into small packages that need to be installed for the build to succeed.

build: add which command to build requirements

2021-03-03T22:03:25Z

`which` utility is not shipped by default for example on recent Arch Linux and then any steps relying on its presence fails, like for example following Python3 prereq build check: $ python3 --version Python 3.9.1 $ make /bin/sh: line 1: which: command not found ... Checking 'python3'... failed. So make `which` utility host build requirement.
