Out-of-tree module errors installing its udev rule

Out-of-tree module errors installing its udev rule

I've got a strange (to me) problem with the recipe for an out-of-tree kernel
module. I'm trying to add a udev rule for the driver - in itself the recipe
does the build ok, but building the full rootfs image throws up a "QA Issue:
linmux: Files/directories were installed but not shipped in any package"
error.

I have

 

inherit module

.

 

SRC_URI += " file://65-linmuxcfg-devnode.rules "

 

S = "${WORKDIR}"

 

FILES_{PN} += "${base_libdir}/udev/rules.d/65-linmuxcfg-devnode.rules"

 

do_install_append(){

    install -d ${D}${base_libdir}/udev/rules.d/

    install -m 0644 ${WORKDIR}/65-linmuxcfg-devnode.rules
${D}${base_libdir}/udev/rules.d

}

 

Is this because it's an out-of-tree module, or some other [obvious] mistake?

Thanks

If that's a literal copy and paste then you forgot the $ in FILES_${PN}.

Also udev rules go into ${nonarch_base_libdir}.

Oh ok, hadn't encounter that var. What's the reasoning? (i.e. where would that be pointing in comparison to ${base_libdir}

udev rules are arch-independent so udev looks in /lib, whereas $libdir can
change depending on multilib (it may be /lib64).
