We have a meta-layer which builds the kernel.
This contains among other things:
FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend_<machine> = "${THIS_DIR}/<machine>"
SRC_URI = "git://<server>/<repo.git>;protocol=ssh;branch=<branch>"
SRC_URI += "file://defconfig"
PV = "...+git${SRCPV}"
SRCREV = "<shaid>"
...
Would like to have an option to build the kernel with external
source.
That option should be easy to enable/disable
[skip the rest]
What you are describing here is very close to how the devtool
works. I think it can deal with kernel packages in its latest
iteration
did you have a look at that tool ? does it satisfy your need ? if
not, what would it need to do what you want...
No, where can I find more information?
The yocto manual has quite a section on that tool
The customer does not use the latest version of Yocto right now, so
that might be a problem,
depends on how old "not the latest" is... but if you can do a
sandbox with the latest version, you can probably see how devtool
works and manually do the same thing...
They use Yocto Layers, but not poky, so devtool is not present.
Anyway, devtool will generate an absolute path, and I am looking for
a recipe which uses a relative path to allow multiple yocto instances.

Is there any way I can from inside a bbappend file find out the path
to that bbappend file?
${THISDIR} should be what you want, if I understand correctly...
Tried that, but that ended up in the build tree.
The <kernel>.bb file is located in the build tree, and the
<kernel>.bbappend is somewhere else.
Don't ask me why, LOL...
I need the directory of the bbappend file.
so It would be good to have an example ".bbappend" to start with.
