Diego Sueiro b2cd5f340e xen: Fix menuconfig and add support for config fragments and diffconfig
This patch introduces the following changes:

1. When building in OE environment the linker path needs to be passed when
   buildind the Kconfig tool in order to get the menuconfig task properly
   working.

2. By inheriting cml1.bbclass we can drop some environment variables
   settings in xen-hypervisor.inc for the menuconfig task, and also be
   able to search for config fragmens and use the diffconfig task. Also,
   there is no need to have a custom do_menuconfig task anymore.

meta-virtualization

This layer provides support for building Xen, KVM, Libvirt, and associated packages necessary for constructing OE-based virtualized solutions.

The bbappend files for some recipes (e.g. linux-yocto) in this layer need to have 'virtualization' in DISTRO_FEATURES to have effect. To enable them, add in configuration file the following line.

DISTRO_FEATURES_append = " virtualization"

If meta-virtualization is included, but virtualization is not enabled as a distro feature a warning is printed at parse time:

You have included the meta-virtualization layer, but
'virtualization' has not been enabled in your DISTRO_FEATURES. Some bbappend files
may not take effect. See the meta-virtualization README for details on enabling
virtualization support.

If you know what you are doing, this warning can be disabled by setting the following variable in your configuration:

SKIP_META_VIRT_SANITY_CHECK = 1

Depending on your use case, there are other distro features in meta-virtualization that may also be enabled:

  • xen: enables xen functionality in various packages (kernel, libvirt, etc)
  • kvm: enables KVM configurations in the kernel and autoloads modules
  • k8s: enables kubernets configurations in the kernel, tools and configuration
  • aufs: enables aufs support in docker and linux-yocto
  • x11: enable xen and libvirt functionality related to x11
  • selinux: enables functionality in libvirt and lxc
  • systemd: enable systemd services and unit files (for recipes for support)
  • sysvinit: enable sysvinit scripts (for recipes with support)
