virtualization warning message #566

Open photoszzt opened 5 years ago

photoszzt commented 5 years ago

I checkout the sumo branch of oe-rpb-manifest and build it. It emits the following warning:

WARNING: You have included the meta-virtualization layer, but 'virtualization' has not been enabled in your DISTRO_FEATURES. Some bbappend files may not take effect. See the meta-virtualization README for details on enabling virtualization support.

I need to add DISTRO_FEATURES_append = " virtualization" to the local.conf file to suppress the warning message. Is this the right way to enable virtualization support?

@ndechesne Can you please take a look at this?

+1 just looked at the sumo build log I did earlier, I see the same warning as well.

i will defer to @fboudra , since he added meta-virtualization for building docker.

Mani-Sadhasivam commented 5 years ago

@fboudra Can you please shed some light into this warning?

ndechesne commented 5 years ago

looking at their README file, I can see:

If you know what you are doing, this warning can be disabled by setting the following variable in your configuration: SKIP_META_VIRT_SANITY_CHECK = 1

So I would say we should either add virtualization in distro feature or add this varilable into our builds.

@ndechesne Thanks for the info! Since we can't quote on the usefulness of virtualization without discussing with @fboudra, we will wait for his reply.

@fboudra Can you please share your views?
