Regarding a few packages in category C&D.
I have latest samhain building as well as grsecurity (pax patches applied against 3.14.12) in a branch in my meta-security tree. I have a bit more testing to do before I was going to post them. And on this note, we should consider the kernel parts and see if getting them into a common location is a good idea. We already have the linux-yocto tree, and it tracks LTSI, has CVE and -stable tracking, and is maintained to support the set of reference boards. Creating yet more reference kernel trees doesn't help our goal of fewer trees and a discrete set of kernel versions. Just something to consider. Cheers, Bruce grsecurity and samhain aren't CGL specific and they maybe belong in a more generalize layer? just a thought.
regards, Armin

Hello Joe,
Here at Enea we are preparing the steps needed for publishing the layer on the open embedded meta layers initiative: http://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/branch/master/layers/ For this we started working at a web page that should contain all the relevant information regarding meta-cgl. It will be available in a couple of weeks. Until then the layer will be available internally and the patches should be submitted as the README states: on the enealinux@... mailing list. We will try to make the switch to Open Embedded mailing list as quick as possible.
Regarding the other B, C and D packages that we will try to add into the meta-cgl layer, I will post this information below, but keep in mind that this information will also be available on the web page. Category B packages: - ifenslave - evlog - crash - mipv6-daemon-umip - openl2tp Category C&D packages: - drbd - grsecurity - logcheck - makedumpfile - numactl - ocfs2-tools - pam_passwdqc - samhain - ltt-usertrace - ftrace The above lists correspond with only the P1 requirements that we try to fulfill for the moment. If there are any questions and/or suggestions regarding this CGL initialtive please address them to me and I will try to offer a response in the shortest time possible.
Thanks, Alex

Hey Alex,
I've been away from this for a bit but now I'm getting time to look at it again and I was wondering if you had any deeper level of detail you could share about the work going on in meta-cgl. Obviously since this is a new registration and one that will look rather different from all of the other CGL registrations currently, those of us in the CGL workgroup were quite interested to see this happen. Personally I'm also interested in this since it's the kind of thing I've been doing for a long time now and if I can, I'd like to help out. In particular, if you've got a list of, say, the category B+ items, that might be something I can do that will be independent of your work on the more active cat-A stuff. OTOH, cat-A is easy to work on since those are the items I saw when I was working with meta-cgl a month or so back. I know you guys are focused on your part of it, but if you had sort of a "here's how to help us" guide, that'd be awesome.
Also, I probably missed it, but is the intent to use either the yocto list or the oe list for all meta-cgl discussions, or do you have a dedicated list we can sign up for? I see you have guidance for sending submissions to meta-cgl, but is that a list that's open to the community, or is it an internal alias / distribution list for Enea?
Thanks, -J.

Hello Jeff,
The errors are package related. Meta-cgl can be seen as a non BSP specific layer (it can be viewed as the LSB from poky). I already started fixing a number, of the already existing errors and the patches will be added upstream after proper testing. I will continue the bug fixing and package integration (into the core-image-cgl image) process and after that is finished I will continue with the Category B packages.
I will also try to keep you guys informed about the latest updates, mainly on the YPTM, but for those who cannot wait that much, there is the Git repository with which they can interact: http://git.enea.com/git/?p=linux/meta-cgl.git;a=summary
Have a good day, Alex

Thanks, Alex.
Others on the mailing lists, if you have any comments on the contents of this new layer, please mention them on this thread.
Re compilation errors, were they specific to a BSP or were they general errors in the packages?
thanks

Hello Jeff,
The available layer is a work in progress.
For the moment we have done an internal mapping of the packages needed inside meta-cgl layer. The mapping is done as following: A. Requirement that map against package/packages with recipes that already exists in Yocto A1. Requirement that map against package/packages with recipes already existing in meta-enea A2. Requirement that map against package/packages with recipes that exists in Yocto (but not in meta-enea) B. Requirement that map against package/packages without any recipe C. Requirement does not directly map against package/packages and needs some investigation. D. Requirement that no solution have been found after a more detailed investigation.
When the release was made available on the public repository, the packages from the A1 and A2 were integrated, a bunch of them with compilation errors:
- lksctp-tools
- openais
- pacemaker
- openhpi
- open-iscsi-user
- open-iscsi-kernel
- libcap-ng
- cluster-glue
- cluster-resource-agents
The activity on the meta-cgl was resumed today and those build and integration errors will be dealt next.
On the longer run we will try to create recipes and/or fulfill all the other requirements from the class B, C, and D.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have further questions.
Alex

David, Jenny,
Will any of you answer this?

Hi all - this is a simple followup to our meeting at ELC regarding a meta-cgl layer, proposed by Enea.
The plan was to create a list of recipes to be included, and to start a discussion on the mailing list.There is a thread on the list from back in April, but I don't see anything more recent than that. Has there been any progress?
thanks
