Not replacing TMPDIR at all (from in OE-core:a8c377beadb85b0ff50)
led to an expansion error when INITRD needs to passed to the image command:
ERROR: ExpansionError during parsing ....bb: Failure expanding variable
INITRD, expression was ${@bb.utils.contains('MACHINE_FEATURES', 'intel-ucode',
'${TMPDIR}/deploy/images/intel-corei7-64/microcode.cpio ', '', d)}
That's because the replacement of ${@ stops at the curly brackets after
TMPDIR, leading to an incomplete Python expression. The right solution
would be to enhance bitbake's data_smart.py such that it does not rely
on a regular expression to find the matching closing bracket.
But that is a performance sensitive area that will need good testing,
so as a temporary workaround for image creation, variable references
to DATETIME and TMPDIR get expanded to ___DATETIME___
resp. ___TMPDIR___ (special strings which are unlikely to be used but
are valid when inserted into a shell command; <<TMPDIR>> for example
did not work because the temporary image command was getting parsed as
shell script) and then turned back into the original variable
references, which is how the code worked before this change.
