Description Martin Jansa 2013-06-06 18:26:55 UTC 
buildhistory_get_sdk_installed doesn't work well when 2 sdk images are built at the same time, they share some temporary files ($1 is set to "target" or "host")
POPULATE_SDK_POST_TARGET_COMMAND_append = "buildhistory_get_sdk_installed target ; "
POPULATE_SDK_POST_HOST_COMMAND_append = "buildhistory_get_sdk_installed host ; "

shared files:
pkgcache="$1/installed-packages.tmp"
$1/depends.tmp
$1/depends.dot
$1/installed-package-sizes.tmp
$1/installed-package-sizes.txt
4 more $1/depends-*dot are used only when != sdk

when 2 tasks run together, the 2nd fails with
rm: cannot remove '/OE/shr-core/buildhistory/sdk/oecore-i686-cortexa8-vfp-neon/target/installed-packages.tmp': No such file or directory

and even the 1st can have invalid buildhistory info (some parts could be overwritten from 2nd task)

Now when it completed successfully I can see that's a bit worse, both SDK images are written to the same directory in buildhistory, this is from building
meta-toolchain-gmae and then meta-toolchain-efl:

https://github.com/shr-distribution/buildhistory/commit/27d505b4f4c1730d187a84413bbc05f01f69d953

It would be nice to put them in "sdk name" directory like it's done for normal images.
Comment 2 Paul Eggleton 2013-06-07 16:37:13 UTC 
I've sent a patch to add IMAGE_BASENAME to the path within buildhistory to avoid this issue.

Thanks for quick fix.
