Subject: auto kernel version
Date: Sat, 18 Mar 2017 04:07:05 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170318080705.GA11330@linux-uys3> (raw)
Hi,
Let's say I wanted to create a recipe to follow Linus' mainline or a recipe
to follow GregKH's staging-next. In those cases I wouldn't want to nail them
down with a version, I'd want to do AUTOREV. So I wouldn't put a version in
the recipe filename (linus-mainline.bb or gregkh-staging-next_git.bb).
But I can't seem to get away with not having some sort of version string
(LINUX_VERSION, PV) in the recipe itself. Is it not possible to extract a PV
or LINUX_VERSION automatically? Otherwise I'll need to update the recipe and
commit with every release (which isn't the end of the world, but adds to the
maintenance).
