I'm not absolutely sure this is the correct path to solve the issue.
This patch relies on LINUX_VERSION being set which isn't a guarantee.
There is probably a more general solution that I'm not thinking of.

I can't say that I know of all the options either, but I can ask questions and perhaps
others will have more ideas.

I was also trying to think of a way to avoid duplicating code that is yanking out version
numbers, but yes if we depend on utsrelease, we also have to do some level of
building .. but that can actually be pretty lightweight.

Have you tried just invoking the prepare1 target in the kernel build ? That should
generate the utsrelease, and not much more.
I preferably didn't want to build anything. This is really just a check to make sure the recipe information keeps up with the kernel, so ideally we don't want to add much or any time to the builds. I'm also not familiar with the prepare1 process or the magic that goes into building the yocto kernel, so I'm not sure what all invoking prepare1 process would entail.

A simple solution would be to yank the version from the KERNEL_VERSION variable after compilation, but that would also mean you don't get the error until after you successfully build, which would be rather annoying.

I know that I use LINUX_VERSION in the linux-yocto recipes, but it isn't something
enforced or widespread (as far as I know). Since this is kernel.bbclass versus kernel-yocto.bbclass
should this be checking against PV versus LINUX_VERSION ? Alternatively, this could just
move to kernel-yocto.bbclass as we try and make it more general.

PV is probably the better choice. I had some reasons I didn't want to use it before but I can't think of them now, and I can see some fairly simple ways to implement a sane matching. PV would also make it more widely applicable.

Thanks,
Cal
