Your helloworld_dbg target uses CFLAGS_DBG but I don’t see that defined anywhere. What’s your actual intention here? If helloworld_dbg should be unstripped, then the idiom is to _always_ build unstripped binaries (which is why CFLAGS has -g in) and at packaging time bitbake will extract the debug symbols and put them into the -dbg package.
