Thanks for your response.

It seems that the bbappend is in the correct folder (ie: recipes-fsbl/fsbl/fsbl_git.bbappend) inside my own meta layer. I also have some other bbappends with other patches which are working fine, but seems that doing the same doesn't work for fsbl_git. I've also checked the layer configuration and I think that the BBFILES variable is also correctly configured: BBFILES += "${LAYERDIR}/recipes-*/*/*.bb ${LAYERDIR}/recipes-*/*/*.bbappend"

Probably I forgot some important detail, but it's not clear to me what can go wrong or how to debug it.


Thanks

I'm using fsbl_git recipe from meta-xilinx-tools (branch rel-v2016.4) and 
wanted to patch the fsbl_hooks.c source code. To do it I created a 
fsbl_git.bbappend with the next two lines:

     FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/files:"

     SRC_URI_append = " file://fsbl_hooks.patch"

but the file doesn't get patched, is there another way to patch it or modify 
fsbl_hooks.c?
This is very standard yocto procedure:

This answer is also good:

You have to make sure your bbappend is it the same dir relative to the root of 
your layer.

If the patch is found and copied into the work dir of the fsbl recipe (i.e. 
build/tmp/work/yourmachine-poky-linux/fsbl/2018.1+gitAUTOINC+aaa566bc3f-r0/fsbl_hooks.patch
 ) it should try to apply it. If the patch is bad, it will fail the yocto build.

Good luck!
