A recent change to the chromium recipe restricts it to only
armv6 and armv7a. I've built (and successfully run) previous
versions of chromium on my LS102x board which is cortexa7hf.
It's not clear to me what arm revision that works out to be
(where does one look for this info?) but I'd like to see if
chromium can still be used on my board?
Thanks for any pointers

Yes it can, because cortex-a7 is armv7a.

My build failed listing the board as not compatible
ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES 'chromium'
ERROR: chromium was skipped: incompatible with machine teton-p0381 (not in COMPATIBLE_MACHINE)

I think it might be worth to have a look at your MACHINEOVERRIDES variable.
bitbake -e should be of assistance here.

Good pointer - the ARM architecture is being set to armv7ve, not armv7a
This was changed (by Martin Jansa) in Poky commit c6a19917ec5350cdfc4053d14462609782613bbc
I suppose a patch to the chromium recipe to allow armv7ve is in order.

Yes. Maybe update the cef3 recipe too, since it will have the same issue.
