Khem Raj 67df2ce4c9 libunix-statgrab: Use compiler driver for linking as well
the build system tries to deduce the compiler and its friends and fails
because OE passes LDFLAGS assuming that linker will be invoked via
compiler driver ( gcc or clang ) therefore prefixes linker options with
-Wl, but libunix-statgrab build system enquires LD variable for linker
and uses LDFLAGS with it, which causes linker to fail since ld does not
recognise -Wl, etc. Therefore using CCLD for linker is right choice here

Fixes
Checking for cc... i686-yoe-linux-ld: unrecognized option '-Wl,-O1'
i686-yoe-linux-ld: use the --help option for usage information

meta-perl

This layer provides commonly-used perl related recipes such as perl libraries in the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network.

Contents and Help

In this section the contents of the layer is listed, along with a short help for each package.

     -- libdbi-perl --
     The DBI is a database access module for the Perl programming language.
     It defines a set of methods, variables, and conventions that provide
     a consistent database interface, independent of the actual database
     being used.

    -- libdbd-sqlite-perl --
    DBD::SQLite is a Perl DBI driver for SQLite, that includes the entire
    thing in the distribution. So in order to get a fast transaction capable
    RDBMS working for your perl project you simply have to install this
    module, and nothing else.

    usage: there is a test case to show you how it works

    1) vim local.conf:
    ...
    IMAGE_INSTALL:append = " libdbd-sqlite-perl"
    PERL_DBM_TEST = "1"
    ...
    2) build core-image-sato and boot the target

    3) run "sqlite-perl-test.pl" on target. This script includes five
       operations create/insert/update/delete/select to do with a table.

    More information can be found in the recipe's git log.

Adding the meta-perl layer to your build

In order to use this layer, you need to make the build system aware of it.

Assuming the meta-perl layer exists at the top-level of your yocto build tree, you can add it to the build system by adding the location of the meta-perl layer to bblayers.conf, along with any other layers needed. e.g.:

BBLAYERS ?= "
/path/to/oe-core/meta
/path/to/layer/meta-perl \

Maintenance
