Dear Yann,

Le 05/09/2016 à 23:49, Yann E. MORIN a écrit :
> Currently, we only support at most one br2-external tree. Being able
> to use more than one br2-external tree can be very useful.
>
> A use-case would be for having a br2-external to contain the basic
> packages, basic board defconfigs and board files, provided by one team
> responsible for the "board-bringup", while other teams consume that
> br2-external as a base, and complements it each with their own set of
> packages, defconfigs and extra board files.
>
> Another use-case would be for third-parties to provide their own
> Buildroot packaging in a br2-external tree, along-side the archives for
> their stuff.
>
> Finally, another use-case is to be able to add FLOSS packages in a
> br2-external tree, and proprietary packages in another. This allows
> to not touch the Buildroot tree at all, and still be able to get in
> compliance by providing only that br2-external tree(s) that contains
> FLOSS packages, leaving aside the br2-external tree(s) with the
> proprietary bits.
>
> What we do is to treat BR2_EXTERNAL as a colon-separated (space-
> separated also work, and we use that internally) list of paths, on which
> we iterate to construct:
>
>   - the list of all br2-external names, BR2_EXTERNAL_NAMES,
>
>   - the per-br2-external tree BR2_EXTERNAL_$(NAME) variables, which
>     point each to the actual location of the corresponding tree,
>
>   - the list of paths to all the external.mk files, BR2_EXTERNAL_MKS,
>
>   - the space-separated list of absolute paths to the external trees,
>     BR2_EXTERNAL_DIRS.
>
> Once we have all those variables, we replace references to BR2_EXTERNAL
> with either one of those.
>
> This cascades into how we display the list of defconfigs, so that it is
> easy to see what br2-external tree provides what defconfigs. As
> suggested by Arnout, tweak the comment from "User-provided configs" to
> "External configs", on the assumption that some br2-external trees could
> be provided by vendors, so not necessarily user-provided. Ditto the menu
> in Kconfig, changed from "User-provided options" to "External options".
>
> Now, when more than one br2-external tree is used, each gets its own
> sub-menu in the "User-provided options" menu. The sub-menu is labelled
> with that br2-external tree's name and the sub-menu's first item is a
> comment with the path to that br2-external tree.
>
> If there's only one br2-external tree, then there is no sub-menu; there
> is a single comment that contains the name and path to the br2-external
> tree.
