Subject: Re: [yocto] How to remove openssl from sysroots


We're not going to integrate everything into one homogeneous package.  Poky and 
BSP would be together.  Then, we've application codes that we'd build in the 
same old way with SCONs the way we do before.  The two parts would link 
together.


And we do have a number of 3rd party vendor packages beside openssl.  
Currently, the issue with openssl is that, we run into build issue with the 
version we got in 2016 release.  See this:




In file included from 
/volume/tools/x86_64_linux.x86_64/2.1.3/sysroots/corei7-64-poky-linux/usr/include/openssl/evp.h:66:0,

                 from src/infra/utils/obf/cv_obfuscate.c:20:

/volume/tools/x86_64_linux.x86_64/2.1.3/sysroots/corei7-64-poky-linux/usr/include/openssl/opensslconf.h:41:36:
 fatal error: openssl/opensslconf-32.h: No such file or directory

We plan to use 64-bit kernel, and 32-bit applications.  Perhaps that explains 
the issue above.  We don't want to spend a lot of effort doing porting simply 
because we adopt Yocto.  So ideally, if we could remove what's in Yocto, we 
could integrate our apps with our own openssl; no changes, including upgrade, 
would be needed.  We'd upgrade when we're ready.

Another question from my team is why the "minimal" package includes 
connectivity, which includes openssl?

I strongly recommend you just write a recipe that builds openssl as you wish, 
instead of building it out of the build system and somehow getting it into the 
images.  The problem is that how do you intend to build software against 
openssl if it can't link to the one in oe-core (as you don't want it) or your 
custom one (because it doesn't exist yet).

The workaround - which is horrible - would be to use a rootfs postprocess hook 
to forcibly remove the openssl packages from the rootfs, and then drop in your 
own files.

We have a shell script that builds openssl.  It uses the native makefiles from 
the open source project.  There's no  recipe.  I suppose we define a recipe for 
this out-of-tree sources.


Still, if we could yank out embedded openssl easily, that would be the best.

Presumably you've a recipe for the vendor openssl.  If it has the same
name but is a different version then just set PREFERRED_VERSION.  If
it has a different name too, it should PROVIDE openssl and you can
just set PREFERRED_PROVIDER.

If it doesn't do either of those things, then it is broken.
