Re: [PATCH] Spec hierarchy dumping for a config

With respect to the alternative ItemCache class implementation in the wscript I am quite confident that this produces the same results. This part just has to load the item data from the files. The CSafeLoader based ItemCache has 53 lines of code. 2. Why not make C libyaml part of the RTEMS toolchain? Any dependencies that exist in the build system are (by definition) suitable to be checked/provided by the tool buildset. Yes, this is an option. If we remove the pickle cache, then we force everyone to use the libyaml based PyYAML module. Is this really necessary right now? If we leave it who would do it? I would like to understand the next question before we decide if this is important. The key objective is to have consistent performance for every one. If the package is easy to build then we should do it when we build the tools and the questions we are having go away. The PyYAML package had some security issues in the past. If we ship this package, who will monitor this package, update it, and write security advisories? For most use cases the Python only solution works fine. If you spend your time developing BSPs, then the CSafeLoader pays off. Maybe I am not understanding how this works. Why is there a difference for developers vs a user who does not have this package installed? Does the difference scale? A user typically just uses a certain version of RTEMS. Then the BSPs of interest are configured and built. A user is not supposed to touch the spec files. A maintainer adds, modifies, removes spec files during development. With the item cache, this always involves a time to wait of several seconds. the time to wait depends on the total number of spec files. With the CSafeLoader this time is reduced to a fraction of a second. -- embedded brains GmbH Herr Sebastian HUBER Dornierstr. 4 82178 Puchheim Germany email: sebastian.hu...@embedded-brains.de phone: +49-89-18 94 741 - 16 fax: +49-89-18 94 741 - 08 Registergericht: Amtsgericht München Registernummer: HRB 157899 Vertretungsberechtigte Geschäftsführer: Peter Rasmussen, Thomas Dörfler Unsere Datenschutzerklärung finden Sie hier: https://embedded-brains.de/datenschutzerklaerung/ ___ devel mailing list devel@rtems.org http://lists.rtems.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

I do not agree with different levels of performance and build experience based on the host operating system being used. We need to support all hosts in the same way and this seems to favour users who have an OS that can provide the package. We have had host biases other places in RTEMS and it takes a long time to remove it. The policy I work to is RTEMS developers and users use the same tools and processes and this has been working well through my time with this project.
