I changed the code in arm/layers/core/meta/classes/kernel-yocto.bbclass From: . else # case: we have no git repository at all. # To support low bandwidth options for building the kernel, we'll just # convert the tree to a git repo and let the rest of the process work unchanged
# if ${S} hasn't been set to the proper subdirectory a default of "linux" is # used, but we can't initialize that empty directory. So check it and throw a # clear error cd ${S} if [ ! -f "Makefile" ]; then .. To: else # case: we have no git repository at all. # To support low bandwidth options for building the kernel, we'll just # convert the tree to a git repo and let the rest of the process work unchanged # if ${S} hasn't been set to the proper subdirectory a default of "linux" is # used, but we can't initialize that empty directory.

If it is a git repo it gets copied into /tmp/stride/work-shared/plnx_arm/kernel-source and things work nicely. do_kernel_checkout() { ... if [ -d "${WORKDIR}/git/" ]; then # case: git repository # if S is WORKDIR/git, then we shouldn't be moving or deleting the tree. if [ "${source_dir}" != "${source_workdir}" ]; then if [ -d "${source_workdir}/.git" ]; then # regular git repository with .git rm -rf ${S} mv ${WORKDIR}/git ${S} else # create source for bare cloned git repository git clone ${WORKDIR}/git ${S} rm -rf ${WORKDIR}/git fi fi cd ${S} else # case: we have no git repository at all. # To support low bandwidth options for building the kernel, we'll just # convert the tree to a git repo and let the rest of the process work unchanged # if ${S} hasn't been set to the proper subdirectory a default of "linux" is # used, but we can't initialize that empty directory.

I'm using Petalinux, so the process would be install that, then checkout the project and then build it, with the correct ${S} directory flowing into kernel-yocto.bbclass:do_kernel_checkout() I'm new Yocto but I've been reading a ton and am looking for some advice.
