Currently, if there is a circular dependency in the packages, the graph-depends script just errors out with a Python RuntimeError which is not caught, resulting in a very-long backtrace which does not provide any hint as what the real issue is (even if "RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded" is a pretty good hint at it). We fix that by recursing the dependency chain of each package, until we either end up with a package with no dependency, or with a package already seen along the current dependency chain. We need to introduce a new function, check_circular_deps(), because we can't re-use the existing ones: - remove_mandatory_deps() does not iterate, - remove_transitive_deps() does iterate, but we do not call it for the top-level package if it is not 'all' - it does not make sense to use those functions anyway, as they were not designed to _check_ but to _act_ on the dependency chain. Since we've had time-related issues in the past, we do not want to introduce yet another time-hog, so here are timings with the circular dependency check: $ time python -m cProfile -s cumtime support/scripts/graph-depends [...] 28352654 function calls (20323050 primitive calls) in 87.292 seconds Ordered by: cumulative time ncalls tottime percall cumtime percall filename:lineno(function) 1 0.012 0.012 87.292 87.292 graph-depends:24(<module>) 21 0.000 0.000 73.685 3.509 subprocess.py:473(_eintr_retry_call) 7 0.000 0.000 73.655 10.522 subprocess.py:768(communicate) 7 73.653 10.522 73.653 10.522 {method 'read' of 'file' objects} 5/1 0.027 0.005 43.488 43.488 graph-depends:164(get_all_depends) 5 0.003 0.001 43.458 8.692 graph-depends:135(get_depends) 1 0.001 0.001 25.712 25.712 graph-depends:98(get_version) 1 0.001 0.001 13.457 13.457 graph-depends:337(remove_extra_deps) 1717 1.672 0.001 13.050 0.008 graph-depends:290(remove_transitive_deps) 9784086/2672326 5.079 0.000 11.363 0.000 graph-depends:274(is_dep) 2883343/1980154 2.650 0.000 6.942 0.000 graph-depends:262(is_dep_uncached) 1 0.000 0.000 4.529 4.529 graph-depends:121(get_targets) 2883343 1.123 0.000 1.851 0.000 graph-depends:246(is_dep_cache_insert) 9784086 1.783 0.000 1.783 0.000 graph-depends:255(is_dep_cache_lookup) 2881580 0.728 0.000 0.728 0.000 {method 'update' of 'dict' objects} 1 0.001 0.001 0.405 0.405 graph-depends:311(check_circular_deps) 12264/1717 0.290 0.000 0.404 0.000 graph-depends:312(recurse) [...] real 1m27.371s user 1m15.075s sys 0m12.673s The cumulative time spent in check_circular_deps is just below 0.5s, which is largely less than 1% of the total run time.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC. If you would like to contribute patches, please read https://buildroot.org/manual.html#submitting-patches
