SRCREV is ignored in linux-tegra_4.9.bb

[MichaelPres]

Hi,

In branch kirkstone-l4t-r32.7.x, the SRCREV is ignored:

rhc@ubuntu:/mnt/repos/kirkstone-offline/build$ buildhistory-collect-srcrevs | grep linux-tegra
SRCREV_machine:pn-linux-tegra = "a1cf17bc0aa0dbafcd8c43514f57d90dc69442a0"

Here is what I propose:

diff --git a/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-tegra_4.9.bb b/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-tegra_4.9.bb

SRCREV is not ignored; the value its set to gets propagated to the SRCREV_machine variable (since our source repo has name=machine). Since we don't actually use a meta repository, we could probably update the recipe to set SRCREV_FORMAT to the null string and remove the name=machine parameter from the SRC_URI setting. That would clean up the buildhistory output... I'm just not sure if there any assumptions in the kernel-yocto bbclass about there being a source repo tagged with name=machine that would break builds if we did that.

Hi @MichaelPres
Any updates on this issue ?
Otherwise I will close it.

@ichergui I am using the patch locally since @madisongh say it is not required in previous message. I don't have the time look for SRCREV_FORMAT.
