linux-yocto-dev currently trips do_kernel_version_sanity_check

[Paul Barker]

Hi all,

I've cloned the master branch of poky, ran oe-init-build-env then
edited local.conf to include the following line:

    PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "linux-yocto-dev"

After this I ran 'bitbake linux-yocto-dev' and got the following error:

    ERROR: linux-yocto-dev-4.9-rc++gitAUTOINC+a5183d8346_36439e87c8-r0 do_kernel_version_sanity_check: Package Version (4.9-rc++gitAUTOINC+a5183d8346_36439e87c8) does not match of kernel being built (4.10-rc8). Please update the PV variable to match the kernel source.

I found this problem whilst playing around with the
linux-raspberrypi_dev in meta-raspberrypi which also includes
linux-yocto.inc.

Should this task be disabled for linux-yocto-dev and similar recipes?
I'd be happy with PV = "4.9+git...." for anything in the 4.9 series
myself.

Thanks,
Paul

I carry a deltask for it myself, and Cal sent a series to disable the
check recently (via a variable).

So yes, it can (and often should be disabled) for AUTOREV -dev recipes.

I pushed 4.10-rc8 to the -dev kernel a few days ago, hence why things
are triggering while my recipe version bump is cycling through the
merge process.

I've found the patch ("kernel.bbclass: Make sanity check opt-out and
provide easy opt-out"), I'll give it a try locally with the opt-out
variable set in my recipe.
