The ${DL_DIR}/svn directory is used by BitBake to keep checked-out SVN
repositories from which tarballs are generated. These repositories were
protected from concurrent update with a lock on the tarballs. However,
the tarballs are specific to the SRCREV and module checked out (many
tarballs can come from the same repository), meaning a repository could
be modified concurrently if two recipes checked out two different
SRCREVs or modules from it in parallel. This caused errors like the
following:
ERROR: Fetcher failure: Fetch command failed with exit code 1, output:
svn: E155004: Run 'svn cleanup' to remove locks (type 'svn help cleanup' for details)
svn: E155004: Working copy '/home/foo/downloads/svn/repo/trunk' locked.
svn: E155004: '/home/foo/downloads/svn/repo/trunk' is already locked.
Fix it by adding a per-repository lock that's independent of the module
and SRCREV.

Bitbake
BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints. One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software stacks using a task-oriented approach.
For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website: http://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated html version at the Yocto Project website: http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
Contributing
Please refer to http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org) but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current branch, type:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
