* Add rule HaikuRepository to build a repository from a repository info
file and a list of package files. It calls a build_haiku_repository
script which does all the work.
* Add target <repository>haiku for building the Haiku package
repository.
It should be built via "jam -q @alpha-raw build <repository>haiku";
the build profile is only needed to activate all build features.
We can't reliably set contemporary processors to an arbitrary frequency.
There are dependencies between cores and thechnologies like Turbo Boost
which may make actual frequency significantly different than the requested.
Moreover, it is the scheduler job to decide how much CPU performance is
needed and user shouldn't interfere with that.
In current state this driver is useless anyway. It's not MP safe.
The P-state values stored in hardcoded tables are only for processors
on which we can't use SpeedStep, because of lack of invariant TSC.
Proper driver should get P-states from ACPI, ensure that the CPU offers
invariant TSC and obviouslt be MP safe.
Some gristing mixup caused the non-secondary version of the lib to be
added to the non-secondary directory, which is what the main
architecture HaikuDevel is already doing.
* perl and python now support vendor-folders for modules and use correct
(i.e. writable) site-folders
* git, mercurial and scons have been adjusted to put their perl/python
modules into respective vendor-modules folders
* 'jam build-remote-test-repository' can now be used to create a
remote repository which will then be used by the build system,
such that the resulting package set can be tested.
Set HAIKU_CONTAINER_SYSTEM_DIR_TOKENS for the Haiku image to "system
non-packaged". All the rules using the variable would put stuff in
directories that will be read-only in the end (and aren't used anymore).
This way they can be used in UserBuildConfig.
* We are moving the HaikuPorts repositories over from haiku-files.org
to packages.haiku-os.org, and we will be creating new repositories
during a push hook from now on. As a result, only a small helper for
uploading new packages into the appropriate upload folder is required.
* Add build tool update_package_requires. Given a package info file and
a repository cache file, it updates the minimum versions of the
requires entries of the package info file according to what is
provided by the repository.
* PreprocessPackageInfo rule: Use update_package_requires (with the
HaikuPorts repository file).
