Changelog: 302: * Mask stderr from the extract-vmlinux script. * Make it much more explicit that we return 'success' from the extract-vmlinux script instead of just falling through to the bottom of the script. * Use Difference.from_operation in an attempt to pipeline the output of extract-vmlinux, potentially avoiding it all residing in memory. This is an attempt to prevent out of memory issues on try.diffoscope.org. * Use --print-armap long option with nm in the "ar" comparator for wider compatibility. 303: * Don't check for PyPDF version 3 specifically, check for >= 3. Thanks, Vagrant, for the patch. * Ensure that Java class files are named .class on the filesystem before passing them to javap(1). * Update copyright years. 304: * Do not run jsondiff on files over 100KiB as the algorithm runs in O(n^2) time. * Fix test after the upload of systemd-ukify 258~rc3 (vs. 258~rc2). * Move from a mono-utils dependency to versioned "mono-devel | mono-utils" dependency, taking care to maintain the riscv64 architecture restriction. * Use sed -ne over awk -F= to to avoid mangling dependency lines containing equals signs (=), for example version restrictions. * Use sed backreferences when generating debian/tests/control to avoid DRY violations. * Update copyright years. * Avoid a crash in the HTML presenter when page limit is None. 305: Upload to unstable/sid after the release of trixie. 306: * Fix compatibility with RPM 6. * Use regular 'open' calls instead of the deprecated 'codecs.open'. * Accept additional 'v' when calling 'fdtump --version'.

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.
