What really confuses me about the attempts I was making is that in
my local.conf file I have explicitly asked for kernel version 3.8.11:
PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-yocto := "3.8.11%"
When I watch the build messages fly by I see that linux-yocto_3.8.11
is being built.
In my work directory there is a directory called:
tmp/work/qemumips64-poky-linux/linux-yocto/3.8.11+gitAUTOINC+8482dcdf68f9f7501118f4c01fdcb8f851882997_bbefde394205a1b317eae31942bfc13afce0b0ac-r4.1/
but when I got into the
tmp/work/qemumips64-poky-linux/linux-yocto/3.8.11+gitAUTOINC+8482dcdf68f9f7501118f4c01fdcb8f851882997_bbefde394205a1b317eae31942bfc13afce0b0ac-r4.1/linux
directory and have a look at the Makefile, I see:
VERSION = 3
PATCHLEVEL = 8
SUBLEVEL = 4
EXTRAVERSION =
NAME = Unicycling Gorilla
and when I boot the image the kernel banner says:
Linux version 3.8.4-yocto-standard (trevor@zzz) (gcc version 4.7.2
(GCC) ) #1 PREEMPT Tue May 14 11:10:07 EDT 2013
Can anyone explain the discrepancy?
