This patch set is intended to provide a semi real time aspect to the
logging to stdout. Originally I was just interested in the output of
the do_compile and I will still consider adding that capability, but I
ended up using the logger generically. It provides the ability to see
all the task logs multiplexed to stdout by PID.
More recently I decided I wanted to be able to toggle the logs on and
off while bitbake was already running, so that was added into the
series as well. After seeing how that worked, I also decided I wanted
to be able to run the dev shell in a single terminal window. The last
patch in the series is for the OE-Core, but since I made reference to
this patch I included in this series for completeness.
As a foot note, I have actually been using a more primitive version of
this patch set for the last 4 weeks that was controlled only by the
local.conf setting and used it to diagnose quite a few different
problems as well as to just understand what it is that bitbake is
doing at times.
Thanks,
Jason.
