Alexander Kanavin 2187e823ad selftest/sstatetests: add tests for 'bitbake -S printdiff'
'bitbake -S printdiff' is a useful diagnostic facility for finding out
why sstate is not being reused, but until now it had no tests that would
ensure it works. This commit adds three basic scenarios:

1. make a change in a really basic, common recipe that is at the very root
of dependency trees (quilt-native), and ensure that change is correctly discovered when
building an image.

2. make a change in gcc-source recipe, which is somewhat special
(operates in work-shared), and ensure that gcc-runtime builds track
that down as well.

3. make a change in base_do_configure() definition from base.bbclass,
which is not recipe-specific, but affects many basic recipes, and ensure that
is correctly reported as well.

The test itself actually runs twice:
- first against a fully populated build directory, where
the printdiff code is guaranteed to find the correct previous
stamp that can be compared with in a predictable manner.

- then in an empty build directory where the printdiff code
goes to look in the sstate cache, and so the existence of the
previous signature can be tested, but not the difference with it
(what the exact difference would be is unpredictable as the
sstate cache is indeed shared between many builds).

Poky

Poky is an integration of various components to form a pre-packaged build system and development environment which is used as a development and validation tool by the Yocto Project. It features support for building customised embedded style device images and custom containers. There are reference demo images ranging from X11/GTK+ to Weston, commandline and more. The system supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a standalone toolchain and SDK suitable for IDE integration.

Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added in the form of BSP layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way. Many layers are available and can be found through the layer index.

As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation, the 'meta-yocto' layer which has configuration and hardware support components. These components are all part of the Yocto Project and OpenEmbedded ecosystems.

The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a reference manual which can be found at https://docs.yoctoproject.org/

OpenEmbedded is the build architecture used by Poky and the Yocto project. For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website.

Contribution Guidelines

Please refer to our contributor guide here: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/dev/contributor-guide/ for full details on how to submit changes.

Where to Send Patches

As Poky is an integration repository (built using a tool called combo-layer), patches against the various components should be sent to their respective upstreams:

OpenEmbedded-Core (files in meta/, meta-selftest/, meta-skeleton/, scripts/):

BitBake (files in bitbake/):

Documentation (files in documentation/):

meta-yocto (files in meta-poky/, meta-yocto-bsp/):

If in doubt, check the openembedded-core git repository for the content you intend to modify as most files are from there unless clearly one of the above categories. Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current git repository branch in question.
