If you mean a QA check to detect use of the override, unfortunately no - although BitBake can collect history such that it would be possible for a QA check to tell whether an override were used or not (as seen when running bitbake -e), we don't turn that on during a normal build for performance reasons. We could do something to check if LINUX_VERSION had been set to match the actual kernel being built, but I'm sure there are situations where the two don't exactly match so that may not be practical either. I've thought about this kind of thing before though as a separate "lint" tool to run over a layer. There's an open enhancement bug with some of my thoughts including something to cover this kind of issue: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5427 Cheers, Paul -- Paul Eggleton Intel Open Source Technology Centre -- _______________________________________________ meta-intel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/meta-intel
