This patch intended to integrate the lttng-modules 2.0 package containing the kernel tracer modules. LTTng-modules 2.0 is currently in pre-release (-pre11), so we have to update it when official released. lttng-2.0 supports lttng-modules extra builds, which don't need any patches on Linux kernel vs the previous version of lttng. As described in README of lttng-modules-2.0, so far, it has been tested in the latest kernel on x86 32/64-bit, and powerpc 32-bit, , build tested on ARM. So does yocto kernel, the related tests on qemux86 and qemuppc has been validated and a build test on qemuarm passed too with this patcheset.

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
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 = "") and contains only emulated machine support.
