This commit is motivated by the west discussion in:
https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/west/issues/548
The commit provides the ability to generate a build meta info file
containing lists of:
- Zephyr: path and revision
- Zephyr modules: name, path, and revision
- West: manifest path
path and revision for each project
For Zephyr or Zephyr modules the revision will be `null` if it is not
under git version control.
If Zephyr, a modules, or a project has uncommitted changes, the revision
will be marked dirty.
If west is not installed or used for the build process, the
west-projects list will be empty.
If a project is both a Zephyr module and a west project it will show up
in both lists.
Similar to Zephyr, which is independently referred as the Zephyr in use
but also listed as west project when west is used.
This is important in case ZEPHYR_BASE was manually set and pointing to
a different Zephyr repository.
The build meta file is not created per default but can be enabled with
the BUILD_OUTPUT_META Kconfig setting.
A project using west and having an extra Zephyr module loaded not
controlled using git can look like:
zephyr:
path: /.../zephyr
revision: 863600cd0e3c0a271e86629c5089821e5e4380cc-dirty
modules:
- name: mcuboot
path: /.../bootloader/mcuboot
revision: c61538748ead773ea75a551a7beee299228bdcaf
- name: local_module
path: /.../local_module
revision: null
west:
manifest: /.../zephyr/west.yml
projects:
- path: /.../zephyr
revision: 863600cd0e3c0a271e86629c5089821e5e4380cc-dirty
- path: /.../bootloader/mcuboot
revision: c61538748ead773ea75a551a7beee299228bdcaf
- path: /.../tools/net-tools
revision: f49bd1354616fae4093bf36e5eaee43c51a55127
And without west:
zephyr:
path: /.../zephyr
revision: 863600cd0e3c0a271e86629c5089821e5e4380cc-dirty
modules:
- name: hal_nordic
path: /.../modules/hal/nordic
revision: a6e5299041f152da5ae0ab17b2e44e088bb96d6d
west: null
