Updating the kern-tools SRCREV with the following fix:
Updateme is responsible for updating an existing meta-series with new patches,
configs and tree manipulations. To do this, it first checks for an existing
board description and generates one if required. It then searches for features
and fragments to be applied for the tree.
There were two problems:
- A top level board description is detected via the presence of "define"
directives that indicate the board name, the arch and kernel type. The
test for define would match on patches or fragments with 'define' in their
name, and would incorrectly use that file as the top level board description.
This is fixed by ensuring that only defines at the start of a line, or preceded
by whitepace match.
- When searching for features that were indicated as 'addon' or 'optional', the
search would find, and apply, any feature with the passed name as substring
versus an exact match.
This is fixed by ensuring that the matched feature name is /<feature name>
versus <feature name>

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 = "") 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, patches against the various components
should be sent to their respective upstreams.
bitbake:
bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
meta-yocto:
poky@yoctoproject.org
Most 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.
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.
