Two projects are given. They use different YP release each.
Projects use also different target platform each.
I wonder if differences in structuring metadata- and recipes- directory tree between
these two projects result solely from different YP releases in use.
Or if these can be a result also of modifications conducted by platform vendors.
Any hints in what extend these result from different YP release numbers in use?
project A (YP release 2.6)
xxxx /yocto/
xxxx/yocto/downloads
xxxx/yocto/meta
xxxx/yocto/sstate-cache
xxxx/yocto/build
xxxx/yocto/.repo
xxxx/yocto/src
xxxx/yocto/prebuilt
xxxx/yocto/meta/
xxxx/yocto/meta/poky
xxxx/yocto/meta/meta-security
xxxx/yocto/meta/meta-clang
xxxx/yocto/meta/meta-openembedded
xxxx/yocto/meta/poky/
xxxx/yocto/meta/poky/meta
xxxx/yocto/meta/poky/documentation
xxxx/yocto/meta/poky/meta-poky
xxxx/yocto/meta/poky/meta-selftest
xxxx/yocto/meta/poky/bitbake
xxxx/yocto/meta/poky/.git
xxxx/yocto/meta/poky/meta-yocto-bsp
xxxx/yocto/meta/poky/meta-skeleton
xxxx/yocto/meta/poky/scripts
+ a set of layers value chain specific, meta-... subdirectories with meta/ as root-point.
project B (YP release 2.0, actually backport of some later release
which unfortunately is not reflected in poky.conf)
yyyy/poky/
yyyy/poky/meta-yocto
yyyy/poky/meta
yyyy/poky/documentation
yyyy/poky/meta-selftest
yyyy/poky/meta-selinux
yyyy/poky/build
yyyy/poky/meta-cust-installer
yyyy/poky/bitbake
yyyy/poky/meta-yocto-bsp
yyyy/poky/meta-skeleton
yyyy/poky/scripts
+ a set of layers value chain specific, meta-... subdirectories with poky/ as root-point.
I mean mainly following differences:
* Project A places a set of value-chain specific layers/meta-... directories at same
directory level as poky.
* meta-yocto apparently not present in project A tree
* meta-poky apparently not present in project B tree

OE allows you to build own distributions, so what you are looking at
is two different distributions based on different
different releases but using same build system ( OpenEmbedded ) over
major releases the build system gets changed
too in terms of its metadata as well new features and some old cruft
removed like usual projects. so you have different
releases, and different machines and different distro all contributing
to the differences.

and meta-yocto was renamed to meta-poky in one of those changes at the
request of the members and community.

Thanks for input from you.
Does this mean shown differences in directory tree is result, a mix of
these all listed parameters?
I am aware of these are two different distributions.
I am aware of these are based on different releases.
I am aware of these are two different machines.
I am aware of release to release to get several classes of modifications.
Actually asked question means how much show differences result from
usage of different YP releases.
