Jason Wessel 76551e02ed runqemu: Fix TAP='TUNSETGROUP: Invalid argument' by falling back to tunctl -u
By default the runqemu script tries to set the group permissions on any
tap device it creates.  The TUNSETGROUP ioctl is not implemented on some
popular host enterprise linux distributions.

Internally the script will exit as follows:

++ /opt/qemux86/bitbake_build/tmp/sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/bin/tunctl -b -g 100
+ TAP='TUNSETGROUP: Invalid argument'
+ STATUS=1
+ '[' 1 -ne 0 ']'
+ echo 'tunctl failed:'
tunctl failed:
+ echo TUNSETGROUP: Invalid argument

This patch implements a fallback to using the userid as the owner of
the tap device which is supported by all 2.6 kernels, the default remains
to try and use the groupid first.

Poky

Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged build system and development environment. It features support for building customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.

Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.

As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.

The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a reference manual which can be found at: http://yoctoproject.org/community/documentation

OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with DISTRO = "") and contains only emulated machine support.
