Thanks kapllaj.

Yes I use imx6ull, I've looked those config files, nothing set to run 4.19.

I setup PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "linux-yocto", I have to
say, it has been running for a year for 4.19 kernel.

I know iit should automatically select the highest available version 5.10.

I set up following in local.conf:

PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel="linux-yocto"
PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-yocto="5.10.%"

But it was still running 4.19, the question is why didn't the Yocto
ignore the setting?

Thank you.
