![]() * Drop the CVE-2024-53589 patch, its included in 2.44 * Package newly rename gp-* to gprofng-* binaries and remove old gp-* symlinks * Gold linker is now deprecated and will be removed in future release its already deleted in tarball releases * Support for the Nios II target has been removed. * Assembler: - Support for new architecture extensions for AArch64, Risc-V and x86. * Linker: The default maximum page size was changed from 16KiB to 64KiB for LoongArch. This now supports mixed LTO and non-LTO object files in relocatable output. The ELF forms of the linker support a --image-base=<ADDR> option for compatibility with LLD. The --build-id= option now accepts an argument of "xx" which enables the use of the xxhash library. This produces a 128-bit hash and is 2-4x faster than md5 or sha1. The ELF linker option --package-metadata supports percent-encoded and %[string] encoded JSON payloads. * Disassembler: The RISC-V disassembler now supports -M,max option like QEMU to dump instruction without checking architecture support as usual. * GprofNG: Support added for hardware event counters for Neoverse-N1, Ampere-1, and Appliedmicro processors.

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/):
- Git repository: https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/
- Mailing list: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org
BitBake (files in bitbake/):
- Git repository: https://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/
- Mailing list: bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
Documentation (files in documentation/):
- Git repository: https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/yocto-docs/
- Mailing list: docs@lists.yoctoproject.org
meta-yocto (files in meta-poky/, meta-yocto-bsp/):
- Git repository: https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-yocto
- Mailing list: poky@lists.yoctoproject.org
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.
