If set to "1", causes the build to not strip binaries in
the resulting sysroot.
</para>
<para>
By default, the OpenEmbedded build system strips
binaries in the resulting sysroot.
When you specifically set the
<filename>INHIBIT_SYSROOT_STRIP</filename> variable to
"1" in your recipe, you inhibit this stripping.
</para>
<para>
If you want to use this variable, include the
<link linkend='ref-classes-staging'><filename>staging</filename></link>
class.
This class uses a <filename>sys_strip()</filename>
function to test for the variable and acts accordingly.
<note>
Use of the <filename>INHIBIT_SYSROOT_STRIP</filename>
variable occurs in rare and special circumstances.
For example, suppose you are building bare-metal
firmware by using an external GCC toolchain.
Furthermore, even if the toolchain's binaries are
strippable, other files exist that are needed for the
build that are not strippable.
