Current include logic goes into generic arm v8/v9 architecture tunes and adds corresponding -march option after synthesizing it from various tune fragments, this is fine for a machine which is using armv8/armv9 based tunes but cortex tunes are intentionally using -mcpu option based on selected tune value. So when cortex based default tune is selected for a machine, it will add both -mcpu and -march to the compiler commandline which can result in invalid combinations for this pair in gcc's own logic. This can then result in compiler warnings/errors reporting this e.g. aarch64-yoe-linux-gcc -mcpu=cortex-a72.cortex-a53 -march=armv8-a+crc+crypto -mbranch-protection=standard ... cc1: error: switch '-mcpu=cortex-a72.cortex-a53' conflicts with '-march=armv8-a+crc+crypto' switch and resulted in options '+crc+crypto' being added [-Werror] This is seen in lot of configure test results in glibc 2.39 and the warning is promoted to errors by gcc in some of these checks especially with gcc-14, the logs also show it as warning in other places in configure checks. mcpu option will compute relevant march implicitly as it specifies a cpu implementation and this will be the right value to use, therefore do not specify -march when -mcpu is already describing the cpu.

Poky
Poky is an integration of various components to form a pre-packaged build system and development environment which is used as a development and validation tool by the Yocto Project. It features support for building customised embedded style device images and custom containers. There are reference demo images ranging from X11/GTK+ to Weston, commandline and more. The system supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a standalone toolchain and SDK suitable for 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 BSP layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way. Many layers are available and can be found through the layer index.
As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation, the 'meta-yocto' layer which has configuration and hardware support components. These components are all part of the Yocto Project and OpenEmbedded ecosystems.
The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a reference manual which can be found at https://docs.yoctoproject.org/
OpenEmbedded is the build architecture used by Poky and the Yocto project. For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website.

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:
OpenEmbedded-Core (files in meta/, meta-selftest/, meta-skeleton/, scripts/):
- Git repository: https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/
- Mailing list: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org
BitBake (files in bitbake/):
- Git repository: https://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/
- Mailing list: bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
Documentation (files in documentation/):
- Git repository: https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/yocto-docs/
- Mailing list: docs@lists.yoctoproject.org
meta-yocto (files in meta-poky/, meta-yocto-bsp/):
- Git repository: https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-yocto
- Mailing list: poky@lists.yoctoproject.org
If in doubt, check the openembedded-core git repository for the content you intend to modify as most files are from there unless clearly one of the above categories. Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current git repository branch in question.
