[Yocto #7453] Corrects the original commit for the patch that removed ARM ptest CFLAGS settings. Since the flags could be set by a user, the flags should be kept in place during compilation. By keeping the original up-stream CFLAGS for the tests, then additional tests successfully compile for all tested ARM tunings. However, there were still two tests listed below that did not compile for any beaglebone tuning that is valid for valgrind. With the updated patch, the set of excluded ARM ptests and their respective build failures are: intdiv - fails for all beaglebone tunings with 2 errors: {standard input}:(40 or 41): Error: selected processor does not support Thumb mode `udiv r3,r9,r10' {standard input}:(72 or 73): Error: selected processor does not support Thumb mode `sdiv r3,r9,r10' vcvt_fixed_float_VFP - fails for all beaglebone tunings in one of two ways: with neon tuning (-mfpu=neon) fails with Internal Compiler Error without neon tuning fails with 3 errors: {standard input}:33: Error: selected FPU does not support instruction -- `vcvt.f32.s32 s15,s15,#1' {standard input}:58: Error: selected FPU does not support instruction -- `vcvt.f32.s32 s15,s15,#32' {standard input}:136: Error: selected FPU does not support instruction -- `vcvt.f32.u32 s15,s15,#1' After applying this commit, the valgrind ARM ptests compile without errors for tunings: armv7[t][hf][b][-neon] cortexa8[t][hf][-neon] where the tuning [option] was successfully compiled, both with and without the 'option', and in combination with all other options.

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-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.
