Subject: kernel.bbclass: add lz4-native dependency for Image.lz4
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=42b85e1532d5448dc88dcb0d068e746f0220ee84;p=thirdparty%2Fopenembedded%2Fopenembedded-core-contrib.git

kernel.bbclass: add lz4-native dependency for Image.lz4

The pixel6 kernel build fails with "lz4: command not found"
when KERNEL_IMAGETYPE is set to `Image.lz4`.

Upstream commit 0c7dc5bae1 ("bitbake.conf: Drop lz4 from HOSTTOOLS")
dropped lz4 from the global `HOSTTOOLS` variable. This meant that
the lz4 binary was no longer automatically provided to build tasks,
causing the compilation to fail.

Add a conditional dependency on `lz4-native` directly to
`kernel.bbclass`. It ties the dependency directly to the image type
that requires it, making the build more robust.
