We strip the TOOLCHAIN_OPTIONS and HOST_CC_ARCH from CC/CXX in cmake.bbclass whereas CFLAFS and CXXFLAGS assume that TOOLCHAIN_OPTIONS are part of CC/CXX variables, this causes compile failures when cmake is running compiler tests during configure on some architectures especially armhf, because hf ABI information -mfloat-abi is part of TOOLCHAIN_OPTIONS, so what happens is that testcase gets compiled without hard-float, howver, during linking the float ABI option is passed via LDFLAGS, now linker rejects this and fails like /mnt/a/build/tmp-glibc/sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/libexec/arm-oe-linux-gnueabi/gcc/arm-oe-linux-gnueabi/6.2.0/ld: error: cmTC_27947 uses VFP register arguments, CMakeFiles/cmTC_27947.dir/src.cxx.o does not mnt/a/build/tmp-glibc/sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/libexec/arm-oe-linux-gnueabi/gcc/arm-oe-linux-gnueabi/6.2.0/ld: failed to merge target specific data of file CMakeFiles/cmTC_27947.dir/src.cxx.o collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status This means that CMake now fails the configure time test too which is not right, e.g. it might disable features which actually do exist and should be enabled e.g. in case above it is resulting as below Performing C++ SOURCE FILE Test HAS_BUILTIN_SYNC_SUB_AND_FETCH failed with the following output: Its actually a bug in CMake see https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/issues/16421 CMake is ignoring CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS when using CHECK_CXX_SOURCE_COMPILES function. Until it is fixed upstream, we add HOST_CC_ARCH and TOOLCHAIN_OPTIONS to CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS, so that we can ensure that compiler invocation remains consistent.

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.
