SDK artifacts were previously picked up by toaster.bbclass and notified to buildinfohelper (via toasterui). The artifacts were then added to the Build object, so that it wasn't clear which artifact went with which target; we were also unable to attach SDK artifacts to a Build if they had already been attached to a previous build. Now, toaster.bbclass just notifies the TOOLCHAIN_OUTPUTNAME when a populate_sdk* target completes. The scan is moved to buildinfohelper, where we search the SDK deploy directory for files matching TOOLCHAIN_OUTPUTNAME and attach them to targets (not builds). If an SDK file is not produced by a target, we now look for a similar, previously-run target which did produce artifacts. If there is one, we clone the SDK artifacts from that target onto the current one. This all means that we can show SDK artifacts by target, and should always get artifacts associated with a target, regardless of whether it really build them. This requires an additional model, TargetSDKFile, which tracks the size and path of SDK artifact files with respect to Target objects.

Poky
Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged build system and development environment. It features support for building customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.
Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.
As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.
The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a reference manual which can be found at: http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with DISTRO = "nodistro") and contains only emulated machine support.
For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website: http://www.openembedded.org/
Where to Send Patches
As Poky is an integration repository (built using a tool called combo-layer), patches against the various components should be sent to their respective upstreams:
bitbake: Git repository: http://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/ Mailing list: bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
documentation: Git repository: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/yocto-docs/ Mailing list: yocto@yoctoproject.org
meta-poky, meta-yocto-bsp: Git repository: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-yocto(-bsp) Mailing list: poky@yoctoproject.org
Everything else should be sent to the OpenEmbedded Core mailing list. If in doubt, check the oe-core git repository for the content you intend to modify. Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current oe-core git repository.
Git repository: http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/
Mailing list: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org
Note: The scripts directory should be treated with extra care as it is a mix of oe-core and poky-specific files.
