During an iterative workflow, running a previously completed BitBake
task causes BitBake to invalidate the tasks that follow that

If you do not have existing patches or configuration files, you can easily
generate them from within the bitbake build environment, as will be described
below. As you do, running previously completed bitbake tasks will cause bitbake
to invalidate the tasks that follow them in the build sequence, causing them to
rebuild at the next invocation of the build. Throughout this section, be sure to
substitute "linux-yocto" with the name of the Linux kernel recipe you are
working with.
