You might want to not only have BitBake look for BitBake allows a task to recursively depend on itself by
dependencies of those tasks, but also have BitBake look referencing itself in the task list:
for build-time and runtime dependencies of the dependent
tasks as well.
If that is the case, you need to reference the task name
itself in the task list:
<literallayout class='monospaced'> <literallayout class='monospaced'>
do_a[recrdeptask] = "do_a do_b" do_a[recrdeptask] = "do_a do_b"
</literallayout> </literallayout>
In the same way as before, this means that the <filename>do_a</filename>
and <filename>do_b</filename> tasks of the current recipe and all
recipes reachable (by way of dependencies) from the recipe
must run before the <filename>do_a</filename> task can run. In this
case BitBake will ignore the current recipe's <filename>do_a</filename>
task circular dependency on itself.
