The release kernel for Yocto 1.5 is the 3.14 kernel, so we introduce

I'm afraid we can't do this in such a simple way. The big issue is that
according to our version comparison functions (in bitbake and in the
package managers), "3.14-rc8" > "3.14". This will then break updates
from package feeds.
The traditional way we've worked around this in times gone by is the
rather ugly:
PV = "3.13+3.14-rc8+git${SRCPV}"
since in this case "3.14" > "3.13+3.14-rc8"
The better way to handle this would be "3.14~rc8" however not all of our
package backends have support for "~" at this point so we can't do that.
There is a long standing bug open about this.
The same issue also applies to the libc-headers recipe.
eeee. Since I don't do package feeds, it's never been a problem for me.
Wouldn't PE bump when I go to 3.14 work as well ? Or does that go away
with the PR sever as well ?
A PE bump would work however we try not to use those, they're a last
resort to correct things we can't otherwise fix. The PR server doesn't
help here although in future I do hope we can teach it about PE too.
I can muck with PV, or we can hold until Linus releases over the
weekend, and I go with the released PVs.
What's your preference ?
Might as well wait over the weekend. If Linus does go for a rc9, we'll
need to merge a version with the modified PV though.
Sounds good. I'm updating the PVs to the format you showed regardless.
Might as well take a lesson from the comments in the review for next
time, in particular since I'm going to split the versioned recipe a bit
sooner for 1.7.
Cheers,
Bruce
In the meantime I might pull this series into master-next for testing
but it will not get added to master in its current form.
Cheers,
Richard
