Hi Guys,
Using poky dizzy with meta-altera (from OE), and trying to implement a simple
loadable kernel-module by following the method outlined in Lab3 of
https://www.yoctoproject.org/sites/default/files/kernel-lab-1.6.pdf.
I'm doing an "rm -rf tmp" before starting "bitbake virtual/kernel
my-image-recipe".
The build seems to work just fine: the kernel-module-xxxx-1.0-r0.machine.rpm
appears as expected under .../deploy/...
The package installation task fails, however, with:
error: Can't install kernel-module-xxxx-1.0-r0@machine : no package
provides kernel-3.15.0-00184-g5ae31a7
and indeed, the kernel packages available in .../deploy/... are:
kernel-3.15-r1.machine.rpm
kernel-3.15.0-00184-g5ae31a7-dirty-3.15-r1.machine.rpm
kernel-dev-3.15-r1.machine.rpm
kernel-image-3.15.0-00184-g5ae31a7-dirty-3.15-r1.machine.rpm
Yet "git status" reports "nothing to commit, w.d. clean" for both the main poky
tree and the meta-altera sub-tree.
By this, do you mean the kernel source tree ? Or the layers ?
I haven't looked at the kernel recipe you are using, but PV
and the git hash you have in those package names is coming from
the kernel source directory.
It is there that you'll likely find un-commited changes, and what
is triggering the -dirty flag to be captured.

So I guess the n00b needs a clue about how to find out why and where the
dirty-flag is getting set?
Thanks for listening!
