We've seen cases where a task can execute with a given pid, complete
and a new task can start using the same pid before the UI handler has
had time to adapt.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/pokybuild/yocto-worker/qemux86-alt/build/bitbake/lib/bb/ui/knotty.py", line 484, in main
helper.eventHandler(event)
File "/home/pokybuild/yocto-worker/qemux86-alt/build/bitbake/lib/bb/ui/uihelper.py", line 30, in eventHandler
del self.running_tasks[event.pid]
KeyError: 13490
This means using pids to match up events on the UI side is a bad
idea. Change the code to use task ids instead. There is a small
amount of fuzzy matching for the progress information since there
is no task information there and we don't want the overhead of a task
ID in every event, however since pid reuse is unlikely, we can live
with a progress bar not quite working properly in a corner case like
this.

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
