kernel configuration validation takes place between two files. An unprocessed configuration file (which is all the options found in the various configuration fragments) and the final .config produced by the lkc. The unprocessed configuration file's name historically is based on the name of the branch that was used to build the BSP. But with the ability to map machine names to arbitrary branches, this is no longer always true. Searching for the pattern *-config-* in the meta subdirectory will only match the config file, and frees the config validation phase from being concerned with what branch was used to build the BSP.

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/community/documentation
