We used to do that .. yes. But then the lttng recipe was changed away from git to using the tgz. I complained at the time (I'm sure it is in the archives for all to see), since I'm constantly doing new kernels and have to do this sort of exercise. The devupstream bbclass allows me to keep moving on my new kernels when I need to pick up changes for -dev, and luckily -stable doesn't normally need this sort of thing. IIRC it was switched to tgz since things like AUH work better with the tarballs, but I can't be sure. But let's just say that I agree that this recipe is better as a branch based, git recipe and not a tgz based recipe. I just haven't waded into the discussion to switch it back :) Bruce > > against the latest 5.4, 5.8 and 5.9 kernels. > > > > We also bump the devupstream SRCREV to pickup the same changes. > > -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- > > -- > Jens Rehsack - [email protected] > -- - Thou shalt not follow the NULL pointer, for chaos and madness await thee at its end - "Use the force Harry" - Gandalf, Star Trek II
