It is fixed by commit 4199e3b8669d0a36448687850374fdc2ad7240b6 Author: Alan Modra <amodra@gmail.com> Date: Wed Jan 15 21:50:55 2014 +1030 non-PIC references to __ehdr_start in pie and shared Rather than hacking every backend to not discard dynamic relocations against an undefined hidden __ehdr_start, make it appear to be defined early. We want __ehdr_start hidden before size_dynamic_sections so that it isn't put in .dynsym, but we do need the dynamic relocations for a PIE or shared library with a non-PIC reference. Defining it early is wrong if we don't actually define the symbol later to its proper value. (In some cases we want to leave the symbol undefined, for example, when the ELF header isn't loaded, and we don't have this infomation available in before_allocation.) So replace the existing patches with this one. (From OE-Core rev: db37534c412ff3f1460687611060b3c4b3f95a04) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
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, patches against the various components should be sent to their respective upstreams.
bitbake: bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
meta-yocto: poky@yoctoproject.org
Most 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. 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.
