* The mode and owner info are saved in inode, hardlink won't change them,
so remove unneeded chmod() and chown().
* This can avoid the problem that when do_package re-run, the file's mode
maybe different if it is 0444 (changed to 0644 when re-run), this is
caused by pseudo adds 'w' on real file, and doesn't track linked source
when hard link, Peter and Mark may fix pseudo, but the removed code is not
needed, which can avoid the problem.
* To reproduce the problem, for example, version.c from gzip's ${B}:
1) bitbake gzip
2) Edit rpm-native or package.bbclass to make do_package re-run.
3) bitbake gzip
After the first build, build/version.c in gzip-dbg is 0444, but after
the second build, it will be 0644, this because do_package does:
$ ln ${B}/version.c gzip-dbg/version.c,
$ chmod 0444 gzip-dbg/version.c (it runs chmod 0644 on the real filesystem)
And in the second build, the gzip-dbg/version.c will be removed and
created again, so that stat() can't get 0444 but 0644 since
${B}/version.c is not tracked by pseudo.

Poky
====
Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged
build system and development environment. It features support for building
customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images
featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports
cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a
standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.
Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports
is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added
in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.
As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as
BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information
e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.
The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a
reference manual which can be found at:
http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions
of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with
DISTRO = "nodistro") and contains only emulated machine support.
For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website:
http://www.openembedded.org/
Where to Send Patches
=====================
As Poky is an integration repository (built using a tool called combo-layer),
patches against the various components should be sent to their respective
upstreams:
bitbake:
Git repository: http://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/
Mailing list: bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
documentation:
Git repository: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/yocto-docs/
Mailing list: yocto@yoctoproject.org
meta-poky, meta-yocto-bsp:
Git repository: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-yocto(-bsp)
Mailing list: poky@yoctoproject.org
Everything else should be sent to the OpenEmbedded Core mailing list. If in
doubt, check the oe-core git repository for the content you intend to modify.
Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current oe-core git
repository.
Git repository: http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/
Mailing list: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org
Note: The scripts directory should be treated with extra care as it is a mix of
oe-core and poky-specific files.
