When multiconfig is enabled the cooker adds providers for all the targets to be built on all the multiconfig variables that were set, regardless if there is a dependency to it or not. This causes an issue when a certain target is incompatible with one or more of the multiconfigs, e.g. the target is not in COMPATIBLE_MACHINE for one of the MACHINEs being built, causing the cooker to error out since no providers can be found for that certain target on that multiconfig. This patch modifies the behavior to only look for PROVIDERS for a target on the multiconfig that was selected to be built, PROVIDERS are then looked for in other multiconfigs only when there is a defined dependency to them.

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
