[yocto] is it not a *requirement* that layers start with "meta-"?

2014-12-30 Thread Robert P. J. Day
just proofing the BSP Guide and i read again that starting a layer name with "meta-" is not an actual requirement, it's just standard practice. but is there no code/script anywhere that requires that prefix to process the layer properly? i'm pretty sure i've run across YP utilities that check

Atul. I believe you need to add EXTRA_OECONF += "--enable-plugin" in a bbappend file for the gcc you need the support it. That wont solve your problem. The kernel Makefile is hard coded to use your 'HOST' gcc. It is trying to build 'HOST' tools. Look at the kernel Makefile. You might need
