Hello List, I have had an attempt to build a kernel from the git sources, trying to checkout the v3.1.1 tag, but it appeared to be more difficult then I thought. Most of the problem I have had with the yocto-specific metadata and some of the extra tasks that it adds. What is the cleanest and compatible way to build a kernel from git or any standard tree (i.e. 2.6.x or later).
I can see that the yocto way of building kernel is to provide a commit ID for each specific architecture and there also these metadata branches, which don't quite understand yet. I managed to somehow slip through, but with manual creation of stamp files and manual 'make all O=../<build_dir>' stage. I don't seem to find any detailed guide, would be great to just see a template in the tree which do just a basic build from a given SRC_URI. It would be also nice to have a line in this template which would demonstrate how to apply a custom base kernel config too.
