        <glossentry id='var-ABIEXTENSION'><glossterm><imagedata fileref="figures/define-generic.png" />ABIEXTENSION</glossterm>
            <info>
                ABIEXTENSION[doc] = "Extension to the Application Binary Interface (ABI) field of the GNU canonical architecture name (e.g. "eabi")."
            </info>
            <glossdef>
                <para>
                    Extension to the Application Binary Interface (ABI)
                    field of the GNU canonical architecture name
                    (e.g. "eabi").
                </para>

                <para>
                   ABI extensions are set in the machine include files.
                   For example, the
                   <filename>meta/conf/machine/include/arm/arch-arm.inc</filename>
                   file sets the following extension:
                   <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     ABIEXTENSION = "eabi"
                   </literallayout>
                </para>
            </glossdef>
        </glossentry>

        <glossentry id='var-ALLOW_EMPTY'><glossterm><imagedata fileref="figures/define-generic.png" />ALLOW_EMPTY</glossterm>
            <info>
                ALLOW_EMPTY[doc] = "Specifies if an output package should still be produced if it is empty."
            </info>
            <glossdef>
                <para>
                   Specifies if an output package should still be produced if it is empty.
                   By default, BitBake does not produce empty packages.
                   This default behavior can cause issues when there is an
                   <link linkend='var-RDEPENDS'><filename>RDEPENDS</filename></link> or
                   some other hard runtime requirement on the existence of the package.
                </para>

                <para>
                   Like all package-controlling variables, you must always use them in
                   conjunction with a package name override, as in:
                   <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     ALLOW_EMPTY_${PN} = "1"
     ALLOW_EMPTY_${PN}-dev = "1"
     ALLOW_EMPTY_${PN}-staticdev = "1"
                   </literallayout>
                </para>
            </glossdef>
        </glossentry>

        <glossentry id='var-ALTERNATIVE'><glossterm><imagedata fileref="figures/define-generic.png" />ALTERNATIVE</glossterm>
            <info>
                ALTERNATIVE[doc] = "Lists commands in a package that need an alternative binary naming scheme."
            </info>
            <glossdef>
                <para>
                    Lists commands in a package that need an alternative
                    binary naming scheme.
                    Sometimes the same command is provided in multiple packages.
                    When this occurs, the OpenEmbedded build system needs to
                    use the alternatives system to create a different binary
                    naming scheme so the commands can co-exist.
                </para>

                <para>
                    To use the variable, list out the package's commands
                    that also exist as part of another package.
                    For example, if the <filename>busybox</filename> package
                    has four commands that also exist as part of another
                    package, you identify them as follows:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     ALTERNATIVE_busybox = "sh sed test bracket"
                    </literallayout>
                    For more information on the alternatives system, see the
                    "<link linkend='ref-classes-update-alternatives'><filename>update-alternatives.bbclass</filename></link>"
                    section.
                </para>
            </glossdef>
        </glossentry>

        <glossentry id='var-ALTERNATIVE_LINK_NAME'><glossterm><imagedata fileref="figures/define-generic.png" />ALTERNATIVE_LINK_NAME</glossterm>
            <info>
                ALTERNATIVE_LINK_NAME[doc] = "Used by the alternatives system to map duplicated commands to actual locations."
            </info>
            <glossdef>
                <para>
                    Used by the alternatives system to map duplicated commands
                    to actual locations.
                    For example, if the <filename>bracket</filename> command
                    provided by the <filename>busybox</filename> package is
                    duplicated through another package, you must use the
                    <filename>ALTERNATIVE_LINK_NAME</filename> variable to
                    specify the actual location:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     ALTERNATIVE_LINK_NAME[bracket] = "/usr/bin/["
                    </literallayout>
                    In this example, the binary for the
                    <filename>bracket</filename> command (i.e.
                    <filename>[</filename>) from the
                    <filename>busybox</filename> package resides in
                    <filename>/usr/bin/</filename>.
                    <note>
                        If <filename>ALTERNATIVE_LINK_NAME</filename> is not
                        defined, it defaults to
                        <filename>${bindir}/<replaceable>name</replaceable></filename>.
                    </note>
                </para>

                <para>
                    For more information on the alternatives system, see the
                    "<link linkend='ref-classes-update-alternatives'><filename>update-alternatives.bbclass</filename></link>"
                    section.
                </para>
            </glossdef>
        </glossentry>

        <glossentry id='var-ALTERNATIVE_PRIORITY'><glossterm><imagedata fileref="figures/define-generic.png" />ALTERNATIVE_PRIORITY</glossterm>
            <info>
                ALTERNATIVE_PRIORITY[doc] = "Used by the alternatives system to create default priorities for duplicated commands."
            </info>
            <glossdef>
                <para>
                    Used by the alternatives system to create default
                    priorities for duplicated commands.
                    You can use the variable to create a single default
                    regardless of the command name or package, a default for
                    specific duplicated commands regardless of the package, or
                    a default for specific commands tied to particular packages.
                    Here are the available syntax forms:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     ALTERNATIVE_PRIORITY = "<replaceable>priority</replaceable>"
     ALTERNATIVE_PRIORITY[<replaceable>name</replaceable>] = "<replaceable>priority</replaceable>"
     ALTERNATIVE_PRIORITY_<replaceable>pkg</replaceable>[<replaceable>name</replaceable>] = "<replaceable>priority</replaceable>"
                    </literallayout>
                </para>

                <para>

            <glossdef>
                <para>
                    Used by the alternatives system to create default link
                    locations for duplicated commands.
                    You can use the variable to create a single default
                    location for all duplicated commands regardless of the
                    command name or package, a default for

     where:

        <replaceable>action</replaceable> is:
           ABORT:     Immediately abort the build when
                      a threshold is broken.
           STOPTASKS: Stop the build after the currently
                      executing tasks have finished when
                      a threshold is broken.
           WARN:      Issue a warning but continue the
                      build when a threshold is broken.
                      Subsequent warnings are issued as
                      defined by the

        <replaceable>dir</replaceable> is:
           Any directory you choose. You can specify one or
           more directories to monitor by separating the
           groupings with a space.  If two directories are
           on the same device, only the first directory
           is monitored.

        <replaceable>threshold</replaceable> is:
           Either the minimum available disk space,
           the minimum number of free inodes, or
           both.  You must specify at least one.  To
           omit one or the other, simply omit the value.
           Specify the threshold using G, M, K for Gbytes,
           Mbytes, and Kbytes, respectively. If you do
           not specify G, M, or K, Kbytes is assumed by

     BB_DISKMON_DIRS = "ABORT,${TMPDIR},,100K"
                    </literallayout>
                    The first example works only if you also provide

                    in the <filename>conf/local.conf</filename>.
                    This example causes the build system to immediately
                    abort when either the disk space in <filename>${TMPDIR}</filename> drops
                    below 1 Gbyte or the available free inodes drops below
                    100 Kbytes.
                    Because two directories are provided with the variable, the
                    build system also issue a
                    warning when the disk space in the
                    <filename>${SSTATE_DIR}</filename> directory drops
                    below 1 Gbyte or the number of free inodes drops
                    below 100 Kbytes.
                    Subsequent warnings are issued during intervals as
                    defined by the <filename>BB_DISKMON_WARNINTERVAL</filename>
                    variable.
                </para>

                <para>
                    The second example stops the build after all currently
                    executing tasks complete when the minimum disk space
                    in the <filename>${<link linkend='var-TMPDIR'>TMPDIR</link>}</filename>
                    directory drops below 1 Gbyte.
                    No disk monitoring occurs for the free inodes in this case.
                </para>

                <para>
                    The final example immediately aborts the build when the
                    number of free inodes in the <filename>${TMPDIR}</filename> directory
                    drops below 100 Kbytes.
                    No disk space monitoring for the directory itself occurs
                    in this case.

                <para>This variable is useful in situations where the same recipe appears in
                    more than one layer.
                    Setting this variable allows you to prioritize a
                    layer against other layers that contain the same recipe - effectively
                    letting you control the precedence for the multiple layers.
                    The precedence established through this variable stands regardless of a
                    recipe's version
                    (<link linkend='var-PV'><filename>PV</filename></link> variable).
                    For example, a layer that has a recipe with a higher <filename>PV</filename> value but for
                    which the <filename>BBFILE_PRIORITY</filename> is set to have a lower precedence still has a
                    lower precedence.</para>
                <para>A larger value for the <filename>BBFILE_PRIORITY</filename> variable results in a higher
                    precedence.
                    For example, the value 6 has a higher precedence than the value 5.
                    If not specified, the <filename>BBFILE_PRIORITY</filename> variable is set based on layer
                    dependencies (see the
                    <filename><link linkend='var-LAYERDEPENDS'>LAYERDEPENDS</link></filename> variable for
                    more information.
                    The default priority, if unspecified
                    for a layer with no dependencies, is the lowest defined priority + 1
                    (or 1 if no priorities are defined).</para>

                    This next example masks out multiple directories and

                <para>
                    Identifies editable or configurable files that are part of a package.
                    If the Package Management System (PMS) is being used to update
                    packages on the target system, it is possible that
                    configuration files you have changed after the original installation
                    and that you now want to remain unchanged are overwritten.
                    In other words, editable files might exist in the package that you do not
                    want reset as part of the package update process.
                    You can use the <filename>CONFFILES</filename> variable to list the files in the
                    package that you wish to prevent the PMS from overwriting during this update process.
                </para>

                <para>
                    To use the <filename>CONFFILES</filename> variable, provide a package name
                    override that identifies the resulting package.
                    Then, provide a space-separated list of files.
                    Here is an example:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     CONFFILES_${PN} += "${sysconfdir}/file1 \
        ${sysconfdir}/file2 ${sysconfdir}/file3"
                    </literallayout>
                </para>

                <para>
                    A relationship exists between the <filename>CONFFILES</filename> and
                    <filename><link linkend='var-FILES'>FILES</link></filename> variables.
                    The files listed within <filename>CONFFILES</filename> must be a subset of
                    the files listed within <filename>FILES</filename>.
                    Because the configuration files you provide with <filename>CONFFILES</filename>
                    are simply being identified so that the PMS will not overwrite them,
                    it makes sense that
                    the files must already be included as part of the package through the
                    <filename>FILES</filename> variable.
                </para>

                <note>
                    When specifying paths as part of the <filename>CONFFILES</filename> variable,
                    it is good practice to use appropriate path variables.
                    For example, <filename>${sysconfdir}</filename> rather than
                    <filename>/etc</filename> or <filename>${bindir}</filename> rather
                    than <filename>/usr/bin</filename>.
                    You can find a list of these variables at the top of the
                    <filename>meta/conf/bitbake.conf</filename> file in the
                    <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#source-directory'>Source Directory</ulink>.

                    By default, the signature is set to an automatically

                    build system to create a boot loader.
                    You can override the signature in the image recipe
                    by setting <filename>DISK_SIGNATURE</filename> to an
                    8-digit hex string.
                    You might want to override
                    <filename>DISK_SIGNATURE</filename> if you want the disk
                    signature to remain constant between image builds.

                <para>
                    When using Linux 3.8 or later, you can use
                    <filename>DISK_SIGNATURE</filename> to specify the root
                    by UUID to allow the kernel to locate the root device
                    even if the device name changes due to differences in
                    hardware configuration.
                    By default, <filename>SYSLINUX_ROOT</filename> is set
                    as follows:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     SYSLINUX_ROOT = "root=/dev/sda2"
                    </literallayout>
                    However, you can change this to locate the root device
                    using the disk signature instead:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     SYSLINUX_ROOT = "root=PARTUUID=${DISK_SIGNATURE}-02"
                    </literallayout>

                <para>
                    As previously mentioned, it is possible to set the
                    <filename>DISK_SIGNATURE</filename> variable in your
                    <filename>local.conf</filename> file to a fixed

                    changing for each build.
                    You might find this useful when you want to upgrade the
                    root filesystem on a device without having to recreate or
                    modify the master boot record.

"dbg-pkgs" - Adds -dbg packages for all installed packages
             including symbol information for debugging and
             profiling.

"debug-tweaks" - Makes an image suitable for development.
                 For example, ssh root access has a blank
                 password.  You should remove this feature
                 before you produce a production image.

"dev-pkgs" - Adds -dev packages for all installed packages.
             This is useful if you want to develop against
             the libraries in the image.

"read-only-rootfs" - Creates an image whose root
                     filesystem is read-only. See the
                     "<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#creating-a-read-only-root-filesystem'>Creating a Read-Only Root Filesystem</ulink>"

                     Development Manual for more
                     information

"tools-debug" - Adds debugging tools such as gdb and
                strace.

"tools-profile" - Adds profiling tools such as oprofile,
                  exmap, lttng and valgrind (x86 only).

"tools-sdk" - Adds development tools such as gcc, make,
              pkgconfig and so forth.

"tools-testapps" - Adds useful testing tools such as
                   ts_print, aplay, arecord and so
                   forth.

                <para>

                <para>
                    To use the <filename>FILES</filename> variable, provide a

                    Then, provide a space-separated list of files or paths
                    that identify the files you want included as part of the
                    resulting package.
                    Here is an example:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>

                <note>
                    When specifying paths as part of the
                    <filename>FILES</filename> variable, it is good practice
                    to use appropriate path variables.
                    For example, use <filename>${sysconfdir}</filename> rather
                    than <filename>/etc</filename>, or
                    <filename>${bindir}</filename> rather than
                    <filename>/usr/bin</filename>.
                    You can find a list of these variables at the top of the

                    when looking for files and patches as it processes recipes
                    and append files.
                    The default directories BitBake uses when it processes
                    recipes are initially defined by the
                    <link linkend='var-FILESPATH'><filename>FILESPATH</filename></link>
                    variable.
                    You can extend <filename>FILESPATH</filename> variable
                    by using <filename>FILESEXTRAPATHS</filename>.
                </para>

                <para>
                    Best practices dictate that you accomplish this by using
                    <filename>FILESEXTRAPATHS</filename> from within a
                    <filename>.bbappend</filename> file and that you prepend
                    paths as follows:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/${PN}:"
                    </literallayout>
                    In the above example, the build system first looks for files
                    in a directory that has the same name as the corresponding
                    append file.
                    <note>
                        <para>When extending <filename>FILESEXTRAPATHS</filename>,
                        be sure to use the immediate expansion
                        (<filename>:=</filename>) operator.
                        Immediate expansion makes sure that BitBake evaluates
                        <link linkend='var-THISDIR'><filename>THISDIR</filename></link>
                        at the time the directive is encountered rather than at
                        some later time when expansion might result in a
                        directory that does not contain the files you need.
                        </para>
                        <para>Also, include the trailing separating colon
                        character if you are prepending.
                        The trailing colon character is necessary because you
                        are directing BitBake to extend the path by prepending
                        directories to the search path.</para>
                    </note>
                    Here is another common use:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/files:"
                    </literallayout>
                    In this example, the build system extends the
                    <filename>FILESPATH</filename> variable to include a
                    directory named <filename>files</filename> that is in the
                    same directory as the corresponding append file.
                </para>

                <para>
                    Here is a final example that specifically adds three paths:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "path_1:path_2:path_3:"
                    </literallayout>
                </para>

                <para>
                    By prepending paths in <filename>.bbappend</filename>
                    files, you allow multiple append files that reside in
                    different layers but are used for the same recipe to
                    correctly extend the path.

                    plugin.
                    By default, the files are installed under
                    the same name as the source files.
                    To change the installed name, separate it from the
                    original name with a semi-colon (;).
                    Source files need to be located in

                    Alternatively, source files can be picked up using

                    will have the same name as the base name of the source file
                    path.
                    To install files into a directory within the
                    target location, pass its name after a semi-colon
                    (;).
                    Here are two examples:
                    <literallayout class="monospaced">

                    The first example installs all files from

                    into the root of the target partition.
                    The second example installs the same files into a
                    <filename>boot</filename> directory within the
                    target partition.

                    Specifies the list of locales to install into the image
                    during the root filesystem construction process.
                    The OpenEmbedded build system automatically splits locale
                    files, which are used for localization, into separate
                    packages.
                    Setting the <filename>IMAGE_LINGUAS</filename> variable
                    ensures that any locale packages that correspond to packages
                    already selected for installation into the image are also
                    installed.
                    Here is an example:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     IMAGE_LINGUAS = "pt-br de-de"
                    </literallayout>
                    In this example, the build system ensures any Brazilian
                    Portuguese and German locale files that correspond to
                    packages in the image are installed (i.e.
                    <filename>*-locale-pt-br</filename>
                    and <filename>*-locale-de-de</filename> as well as
                    <filename>*-locale-pt</filename>
                    and <filename>*-locale-de</filename>, since some software
                    packages only provide locale files by language and not by
                    country-specific language).

                    Defines a multiplier that the build system applies to the initial image
                    size for cases when the multiplier times the returned disk usage value
                    for the image is greater than the sum of

                    <filename><link linkend='var-IMAGE_ROOTFS_EXTRA_SPACE'>IMAGE_ROOTFS_EXTRA_SPACE</link></filename>.
                    The result of the multiplier applied to the initial image size creates
                    free disk space in the image as overhead.
                    By default, the build process uses a multiplier of 1.3 for this variable.
                    This default value results in 30% free disk space added to the image when this
                    method is used to determine the final generated image size.
                    You should be aware that post install scripts and the package management
                    system uses disk space inside this overhead area.
                    Consequently, the multiplier does not produce an image with
                    all the theoretical free disk space.
                    See <filename><link linkend='var-IMAGE_ROOTFS_SIZE'>IMAGE_ROOTFS_SIZE</link></filename>
                    for information on how the build system determines the overall image size.
                </para>

                <para>
                    The default 30% free disk space typically gives the image enough room to boot
                    and allows for basic post installs while still leaving a small amount of
                    free disk space.
                    If 30% free space is inadequate, you can increase the default value.
                    For example, the following setting gives you 50% free space added to the image:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     IMAGE_OVERHEAD_FACTOR = "1.5"
                    </literallayout>
                </para>

                <para>
                    Alternatively, you can ensure a specific amount of free disk space is added
                    to the image by using the
                    <filename><link linkend='var-IMAGE_ROOTFS_EXTRA_SPACE'>IMAGE_ROOTFS_EXTRA_SPACE</link></filename>

                <para>Helps define the recipe revision for recipes that share
                    a common <filename>include</filename> file.
                    You can think of this variable as part of the recipe revision
                    as set from within an include file.</para>
                <para>Suppose, for example, you have a set of recipes that
                    are used across several projects.
                    And, within each of those recipes the revision
                    (its <link linkend='var-PR'><filename>PR</filename></link>
                    value) is set accordingly.
                    In this case, when the revision of those recipes changes,
                    the burden is on you to find all those recipes and
                    be sure that they get changed to reflect the updated
                    version of the recipe.
                    In this scenario, it can get complicated when recipes
                    that are used in many places and provide common functionality
                    are upgraded to a new revision.</para>
                <para>A more efficient way of dealing with this situation is
                    to set the <filename>INC_PR</filename> variable inside
                    the <filename>include</filename> files that the recipes
                    share and then expand the <filename>INC_PR</filename>
                    variable within the recipes to help
                    define the recipe revision.
                    </para>
                <para>
                    The following provides an example that shows how to use
                    the <filename>INC_PR</filename> variable
                    given a common <filename>include</filename> file that
                    defines the variable.
                    Once the variable is defined in the
                    <filename>include</filename> file, you can use the
                    variable to set the <filename>PR</filename> values in
                    each recipe.
                    You will notice that when you set a recipe's
                    <filename>PR</filename> you can provide more granular
                    revisioning by appending values to the
                    <filename>INC_PR</filename> variable:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
recipes-graphics/xorg-font/xorg-font-common.inc:INC_PR = "r2"
recipes-graphics/xorg-font/encodings_1.0.4.bb:PR = "${INC_PR}.1"
recipes-graphics/xorg-font/font-util_1.3.0.bb:PR = "${INC_PR}.0"
recipes-graphics/xorg-font/font-alias_1.0.3.bb:PR = "${INC_PR}.3"
                    </literallayout>
                    The first line of the example establishes the baseline
                    revision to be used for all recipes that use the
                    <filename>include</filename> file.
                    The remaining lines in the example are from individual
                    recipes and show how the <filename>PR</filename> value
                    is set.</para>

                    Without limiting the execution of post installation scripts,
                    all font directories would be rescanned to create the

                    Values for this variable are set in the kernel's recipe
                    file and the kernel's append file.
                    For example, if you are using the Yocto Project kernel that
                    is based on the Linux 3.10 kernel, the kernel recipe file
                    is the

                    file.
                    Following is the default value for <filename>KBRANCH</filename>
                    and the default override for the architectures the Yocto

                <para>
                    This variable is also used from the kernel's append file
                    to identify the kernel branch specific to a particular
                    machine or target hardware.
                    The kernel's append file is located in the BSP layer for
                    a given machine.
                    For example, the kernel append file for the Crown Bay BSP is in the

                    The machine as known by the kernel.
                    Sometimes the machine name used by the kernel does not match the machine name
                    used by the OpenEmbedded build system.
                    For example, the machine name that the OpenEmbedded build system understands as
                    <filename>qemuarm</filename> goes by a different name in the Linux Yocto kernel.
                    The kernel understands that machine as <filename>arm_versatile926ejs</filename>.
                    For cases like these, the <filename>KMACHINE</filename> variable maps the
                    kernel machine name to the OpenEmbedded build system machine name.
                </para>

                <para>
                    Kernel machine names are initially defined in the
                    Yocto Linux Kernel's <filename>meta</filename> branch.
                    From the <filename>meta</filename> branch, look in
                    the <filename>meta/cfg/kernel-cache/bsp/&lt;bsp_name&gt;/&lt;bsp-name&gt;-&lt;kernel-type&gt;.scc</filename> file.
                    For example, from the <filename>meta</filename> branch in the
                    <filename>linux-yocto-3.0</filename> kernel, the
                    <filename>meta/cfg/kernel-cache/bsp/cedartrail/cedartrail-standard.scc</filename> file
                    has the following:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     define KMACHINE cedartrail
     define KTYPE standard
     define KARCH i386

     include ktypes/standard
     branch cedartrail

     include cedartrail.scc
                    </literallayout>
                    You can see that the kernel understands the machine name for
                    the Cedar Trail Board Support Package (BSP) as
                    <filename>cedartrail</filename>.
                </para>

                <para>
                    If you look in the Cedar Trail BSP layer in the
                    <filename>meta-intel</filename>
                    <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#source-repositories'>Source Repositories</ulink>
                    at <filename>meta-cedartrail/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto_3.0.bbappend</filename>,
                    you will find the following statements among others:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     COMPATIBLE_MACHINE_cedartrail = "cedartrail"
     KMACHINE_cedartrail  = "cedartrail"
     KBRANCH_cedartrail  = "yocto/standard/cedartrail"
     KERNEL_FEATURES_append_cedartrail += "bsp/cedartrail/cedartrail-pvr-merge.scc"
     KERNEL_FEATURES_append_cedartrail += "cfg/efi-ext.scc"

     COMPATIBLE_MACHINE_cedartrail-nopvr = "cedartrail"
     KMACHINE_cedartrail-nopvr  = "cedartrail"
     KBRANCH_cedartrail-nopvr  = "yocto/standard/cedartrail"
     KERNEL_FEATURES_append_cedartrail-nopvr += " cfg/smp.scc"
                    </literallayout>
                    The <filename>KMACHINE</filename> statements in the kernel's append file make sure that
                    the OpenEmbedded build system and the Yocto Linux kernel understand the same machine
                    names.
                </para>

                <para>
                    This append file uses two <filename>KMACHINE</filename> statements.
                    The first is not really necessary but does ensure that the machine known to the
                    OpenEmbedded build system as <filename>cedartrail</filename> maps to the machine
                    in the kernel also known as <filename>cedartrail</filename>:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     KMACHINE_cedartrail  = "cedartrail"
                    </literallayout>
                </para>

                <para>
                    The second statement is a good example of why the <filename>KMACHINE</filename> variable
                    is needed.
                    In this example, the OpenEmbedded build system uses the <filename>cedartrail-nopvr</filename>
                    machine name to refer to the Cedar Trail BSP that does not support the proprietary
                    PowerVR driver.
                    The kernel, however, uses the machine name <filename>cedartrail</filename>.
                    Thus, the append file must map the <filename>cedartrail-nopvr</filename> machine name to
                    the kernel's <filename>cedartrail</filename> name:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     KMACHINE_cedartrail-nopvr  = "cedartrail"
                    </literallayout>
                </para>

                <para>
                    BSPs that ship with the Yocto Project release provide all mappings between the Yocto
                    Project kernel machine names and the OpenEmbedded machine names.
                    Be sure to use the <filename>KMACHINE</filename> if you create a BSP and the machine
                    name you use is different than that used in the kernel.

                    The first example is from the recipes for Qt, which the user

                    2.1 or GPL version 3.
                    The second example is from Cairo where two licenses cover
                    different parts of the source code.
                    The final example is from <filename>sysstat</filename>,
                    which presents a single license.

                    However, because this is a "machine essential" variable, the list of
                    packages are essential for the machine to boot.
                    The impact of this variable affects images based on
                    <filename>packagegroup-core-boot</filename>,
                    including the <filename>core-image-minimal</filename> image.

                    This variable is similar to the

                    variable with the exception that the image being built does not have a build
                    dependency on the variable's list of packages.
                    In other words, the image will still build if a package in this list is not found.
                    Typically, this variable is used to handle essential kernel modules, whose
                    functionality may be selected to be built into the kernel rather than as a module,
                    in which case a package will not be produced.
                </para>
                <para>
                    Consider an example where you have a custom kernel where a specific touchscreen
                    driver is required for the machine to be usable.
                    However, the driver can be built as a module or
                    into the kernel depending on the kernel configuration.
                    If the driver is built as a module, you want it to be installed.
                    But, when the driver is built into the kernel, you still want the
                    build to succeed.
                    This variable sets up a "recommends" relationship so that in the latter case,
                    the build will not fail due to the missing package.
                    To accomplish this, assuming the package for the module was called
                    <filename>kernel-module-ab123</filename>, you would use the
                    following in the machine's <filename>.conf</filename> configuration
                    file:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>

                    Because the package manager controls actual installation

                    This variable provides a means of enabling or disabling
                    features of a recipe on a per-recipe basis.
                    <filename>PACKAGECONFIG</filename> blocks are defined
                    in recipes when you specify features and then arguments
                    that define feature behaviors.
                    Here is the basic block structure:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     PACKAGECONFIG ??= "f1 f2 f3 ..."
     PACKAGECONFIG[f1] = "--with-f1,--without-f1,build-deps-f1,rt-deps-f1"
     PACKAGECONFIG[f2] = "--with-f2,--without-f2,build-deps-f2,rt-deps-f2"
     PACKAGECONFIG[f3] = "--with-f3,--without-f3,build-deps-f3,rt-deps-f3"
                    </literallayout>
                    The <filename>PACKAGECONFIG</filename>
                    variable itself specifies a space-separated list of the
                    features to enable.
                    Following the features, you can determine the behavior of
                    each feature by providing up to four order-dependent
                    arguments, which are separated by commas.
                    You can omit any argument you like but must retain the
                    separating commas.
                    The order is important and specifies the following:
                    <orderedlist>
                        <listitem><para>Extra arguments
                            that should be added to the configure script

                            (<link linkend='var-EXTRA_OECONF'><filename>EXTRA_OECONF</filename></link>)
                            if the feature is enabled.</para></listitem>
                        <listitem><para>Extra arguments
                            that should be added to <filename>EXTRA_OECONF</filename>
                            if the feature is disabled.
                            </para></listitem>
                        <listitem><para>Additional build dependencies
                            (<link linkend='var-DEPENDS'><filename>DEPENDS</filename></link>)
                            that should be added if the feature is enabled.
                            </para></listitem>
                        <listitem><para>Additional runtime dependencies
                            (<link linkend='var-RDEPENDS'><filename>RDEPENDS</filename></link>)
                            that should be added if the feature is enabled.
                            </para></listitem>
                    </orderedlist>
                </para>

                <para>
                    Consider the following
                    <filename>PACKAGECONFIG</filename> block taken from the
                    <filename>librsvg</filename> recipe.
                    In this example the feature is <filename>croco</filename>,
                    which has three arguments that determine the feature's
                    behavior.
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     PACKAGECONFIG ??= "croco"
     PACKAGECONFIG[croco] = "--with-croco,--without-croco,libcroco"
                    </literallayout>
                    The <filename>--with-croco</filename> and
                    <filename>libcroco</filename> arguments apply only if
                    the feature is enabled.
                    In this case, <filename>--with-croco</filename> is
                    added to the configure script argument list and
                    <filename>libcroco</filename> is added to
                    <filename><link linkend='var-DEPENDS'>DEPENDS</link></filename>.
                    On the other hand, if the feature is disabled say through
                    a <filename>.bbappend</filename> file in another layer, then
                    the second argument <filename>--without-croco</filename> is
                    added to the configure script rather than
                    <filename>--with-croco</filename>.
                </para>

                <para>
                    The basic <filename>PACKAGECONFIG</filename> structure
                    previously described holds true regardless of whether you
                    are creating a block or changing a block.
                    When creating a block, use the structure inside your
                    recipe.
                </para>

                <para>
                    If you want to change an existing
                    <filename>PACKAGECONFIG</filename> block, you can do so
                    one of two ways:
                    <itemizedlist>
                        <listitem><para><emphasis>Append file:</emphasis>
                            Create an append file named
                            <replaceable>recipename</replaceable><filename>.bbappend</filename>
                            in your layer and override the value of
                            <filename>PACKAGECONFIG</filename>.
                            You can either completely override the variable:
                            <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     PACKAGECONFIG="f4 f5"
                            </literallayout>
                            Or, you can just append the variable:
                            <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     PACKAGECONFIG_append = " f4"
                            </literallayout></para></listitem>
                        <listitem><para><emphasis>Configuration file:</emphasis>
                            This method is identical to changing the block
                            through an append file except you edit your
                            <filename>local.conf</filename> or
                            <filename><replaceable>mydistro</replaceable>.conf</filename> file.
                            As with append files previously described,
                            you can either completely override the variable:
                            <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     PACKAGECONFIG_pn-<replaceable>recipename</replaceable>="f4 f5"
                            </literallayout>
                            Or, you can just amend the variable:
                            <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     PACKAGECONFIG_append_pn-<replaceable>recipename</replaceable> = " f4"

                    Thus, if you attempt to include that package in an image,

                   Like all package-controlling variables, you must always use

                   <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     RCONFLICTS_${PN} = "<replaceable>another-conflicting-package-name</replaceable>"

                    BitBake, which the OpenEmbedded build system uses, supports
                    specifying versioned dependencies.
                    Although the syntax varies depending on the packaging
                    format, BitBake hides these differences from you.
                    Here is the general syntax to specify versions with
                    the <filename>RCONFLICTS</filename> variable:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     RCONFLICTS_${PN} = "<replaceable>package</replaceable> (<replaceable>operator</replaceable> <replaceable>version</replaceable>)"
                    </literallayout>
                    For <filename>operator</filename>, you can specify the
                    following:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     =
     &lt;
     &gt;
     &lt;=
     &gt;=
                    </literallayout>
                    For example, the following sets up a dependency on version
                    1.2 or greater of the package <filename>foo</filename>:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     RCONFLICTS_${PN} = "foo (>= 1.2)"

                    If a package in this list cannot be found during the build,

                    When you use the <filename>RDEPENDS</filename> variable
                    in a recipe, you are essentially stating that the recipe's
                    <link linkend='ref-tasks-build'><filename>do_build</filename></link>
                    task depends on the existence of a specific package.
                    Consider this simple example for two recipes named "a" and
                    "b" that produce similarly named IPK packages.
                    In this example, the <filename>RDEPENDS</filename>
                    statement appears in the "a" recipe:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     RDEPENDS_${PN} = "b"
                    </literallayout>
                    Here, the dependency is such that the
                    <filename>do_build</filename> task for recipe "a" depends
                    on the
                    <link linkend='ref-tasks-package_write_ipk'><filename>do_package_write_ipk</filename></link>
                    task of recipe "b".
                    This means the package file for "b" must be available when
                    the output for recipe "a" has been completely built.
                    More importantly, package "a" will be marked as depending
                    on package "b" in a manner that is understood by the
                    package manager.
                </para>

                <para>
                    The names of the packages you list within
                    <filename>RDEPENDS</filename> must be the names of other
                    packages - they cannot be recipe names.
                    Although package names and recipe names usually match,
                    the important point here is that you are
                    providing package names within the
                    <filename>RDEPENDS</filename> variable.
                    For an example of the default list of packages created from
                    a recipe, see the
                    <link linkend='var-PACKAGES'><filename>PACKAGES</filename></link>
                    variable.
                </para>

                <para>
                    Because the <filename>RDEPENDS</filename> variable applies
                    to packages being built, you should always use the variable
                    in a form with an attached package name.
                    For example, suppose you are building a development package
                    that depends on the <filename>perl</filename> package.
                    In this case, you would use the following
                    <filename>RDEPENDS</filename> statement:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     RDEPENDS_${PN}-dev += "perl"
                    </literallayout>
                    In the example, the development package depends on
                    the <filename>perl</filename> package.
                    Thus, the <filename>RDEPENDS</filename> variable has the
                    <filename>${PN}-dev</filename> package name as part of the
                    variable.
                </para>

                    BitBake, which the OpenEmbedded build system uses, supports
                    specifying versioned dependencies.
                    Although the syntax varies depending on the packaging
                    format, BitBake hides these differences from you.
                    Here is the general syntax to specify versions with
                    the <filename>RDEPENDS</filename> variable:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     RDEPENDS_${PN} = "<replaceable>package</replaceable> (<replaceable>operator</replaceable> <replaceable>version</replaceable>)"
                    </literallayout>
                    For <filename>operator</filename>, you can specify the
                    following:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     =
     &lt;
     &gt;
     &lt;=
     &gt;=
                    </literallayout>
                    For example, the following sets up a dependency on version
                    1.2 or greater of the package <filename>foo</filename>:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     RDEPENDS_${PN} = "foo (>= 1.2)"
                    </literallayout>
                </para>

     ROOT_HOME ??= "/home/root"
                    </literallayout>
                    <note>
                        This default value is likely used because some
                        embedded solutions prefer to have a read-only root
                        filesystem and prefer to keep writeable data in one

                    You can override the default by setting the variable
                    in any layer or in the <filename>local.conf</filename> file.
                    Because the default is set using a "weak" assignment
                    (i.e. "??="), you can use either of the following forms
                    to define your override:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     ROOT_HOME = "/root"
     ROOT_HOME ?= "/root"
                    </literallayout>
                    These override examples use <filename>/root</filename>,
                    which is probably the most commonly used override.

                    Because the <filename>RRECOMMENDS</filename> variable

                    an override to the variable to specify the particular

                    For example, suppose you are building a development package
                    that is extended to support wireless functionality.

                    (<filename>${<link linkend='var-PN'>PN</link>}-dev</filename>)
                    must appear as it would in the

                    BitBake, which the OpenEmbedded build system uses, supports
                    specifying versioned recommends.
                    Although the syntax varies depending on the packaging
                    format, BitBake hides these differences from you.
                    Here is the general syntax to specify versions with
                    the <filename>RRECOMMENDS</filename> variable:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     RRECOMMENDS_${PN} = "<replaceable>package</replaceable> (<replaceable>operator</replaceable> <replaceable>version</replaceable>)"
                    </literallayout>
                    For <filename>operator</filename>, you can specify the
                    following:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     =
     &lt;

     &lt;=
     &gt;=
                    </literallayout>

                    In order to also have the other package(s) removed at the

                   this variable in conjunction with a package name

                   Here is an example:

     RREPLACES_${PN} = "<replaceable>other-package-being-replaced</replaceable>"

                    BitBake, which the OpenEmbedded build system uses, supports
                    specifying versioned replacements.
                    Although the syntax varies depending on the packaging
                    format, BitBake hides these differences from you.
                    Here is the general syntax to specify versions with
                    the <filename>RREPLACES</filename> variable:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     RREPLACES_${PN} = "<replaceable>package</replaceable> (<replaceable>operator</replaceable> <replaceable>version</replaceable>)"
                    </literallayout>
                    For <filename>operator</filename>, you can specify the
                    following:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     =
     &lt;
     &gt;
     &lt;=
     &gt;=
                    </literallayout>
                    For example, the following sets up a replacement using
                    version 1.2 or greater of the package
                    <filename>foo</filename>:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     RREPLACES_${PN} = "foo (>= 1.2)"

                    For example, if the recipe or append file only needs to
                    fetch a tarball from the Internet, the recipe or
                    append file uses a single <filename>SRC_URI</filename>
                    entry.
                    On the other hand, if the recipe or append file needs to
                    fetch a tarball, apply two patches, and include a custom
                    file, the recipe or append file would include four
                    instances of the variable.</para>

                            from the local machine.

                            Thus, the build system searches, in order, from the

                    another different system (e.g. cross-canadian recipes).
                    Using terminology from GNU, the primary system is referred
                    to as the "HOST" and the secondary, or different, system is
                    referred to as the "TARGET".
                    Thus, the binaries run on the "HOST" system and
                    and generate binaries for the "TARGET" system.

                    The OpenEmbedded build system provides a core set of tests
                    that can be used against images.
                    <note>
                        Currently, there is only support for running these tests
                        under QEMU.
                    </note>
                    Tests include <filename>ping</filename>,
                    <filename>ssh</filename>, <filename>df</filename> among
                    others.
                    You can add your own tests to the list of tests by
                    appending <filename>TEST_SUITES</filename> as follows:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     TEST_SUITES_append = " <replaceable>mytest</replaceable>"
                    </literallayout>
                    Alternatively, you can provide the "auto" option to
                    have all applicable tests run against the image.
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     TEST_SUITES_append = " auto"
                    </literallayout>
                    Using this option causes the build system to automatically
                    run tests that are applicable to the image.
                    Tests that are not applicable are skipped.

                    The order in which tests are run is important.
                    Tests that depend on another test must appear later in the
                    list than the test on which they depend.
                    For example, if you append the list of tests with two
                    tests (<filename>test_A</filename> and
                    <filename>test_B</filename>) where
                    <filename>test_B</filename> is dependent on
                    <filename>test_A</filename>, then you must order the tests
                    as follows:

                    Due to various issues with NFS and bugs in some

                    The actual directory depends on several things:

                    As an example, assume a Source Directory top-level folder

                    Furthermore, suppose your recipe is named
                    <filename>foo_1.3.0-r0.bb</filename>.
                    In this case, the work directory the build system uses to
                    build the package would be as follows:
