Hi
For my image I build several external kernel modules (drivers).
I followed the model in the hello_mod.bb example, except that the
SRC_URI is a git repository and SRCREV= "${AUTOREV}
Here is one of the driver recipes called: highspeedrs422.bb
SUMMARY = "High speed Rs422 DRIVER for Robovator"
LICENSE = "GPLv2"
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://COPYING;md5=12f884d2ae1ff87c09e5b7ccc2c4ca7e"
# hispeedRS422 for Robovator, based on highspeedV10
#branch Pokybuild should always be used here
BRANCH = "Pokybuild"
inherit module
SRC_URI =" git:///${ESERVER}/GIT/hispeedV10/;branch=${BRANCH};"
SRCREV= "${AUTOREV}"
PV = "1.0.0+gitr${SRCPV}"
S = "${WORKDIR}/git"
# Do not autoload the driver when running "V1.9" mode
#KERNEL_MODULE_AUTOLOAD += "hispeedRS422"/
(the variable ESERVER is set externally via BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE)
/This is the makefile/
/ifneq ($(KERNELRELEASE),)
obj-m := hispeedRS422.o
else
all:
$(MAKE) -C $(KERNEL_SRC) M=$(SRC)
modules_install:
$(MAKE) -C $(KERNEL_SRC) M=$(SRC) modules_install
clean:
rm -f *.o *~ core .depend .*.cmd *.ko *.mod.c
rm -f Module.markers Module.symvers modules.order
rm -rf .tmp_versions Modules.symvers
endif
/
/In my image recipe I do :
PACKAGE_INSTALL_append() = "kernel-module-highspeedrs422 ......"
If I make changes and push a new revision to the git repo , it is not
discovered by bitbake, it keeps building the older version it already
has checked out.
All my application level recipes are similar and they do detect git changes
Adding MACHINE_ESSENTIAL_EXTRA_... to local.conf does not solve it
the only way I can make it build is doing a rm -rf tmp
For the record if it try a : /bitbake -c cleanall -f
//highspeedrs422//,/ or any other forced command//then on next image
build I get a trillion errors like:
"/the basehash value changed from fbd0f0b2f1269319d4f84d79e76bef0a to
a36cd622aeb0840d670f8b01d9ed041d. The metadata is not deterministic and
this needs to be fixed."

I'm pretty sure it's a RTFM problem but which one ??
