To quote package.bbclass:

	# Return a list of configuration files based on either the default
	# files/fs-perms.txt or the contents of FILESYSTEM_PERMS_TABLES
	# paths are resolved via BBPATH
	def get_fs_perms_list(d):
		str = ""
		fs_perms_tables = bb.data.getVar('FILESYSTEM_PERMS_TABLES', d, True)
		if not fs_perms_tables:
			fs_perms_tables = 'files/fs-perms.txt'
		for conf_file in fs_perms_tables.split():
			str += " %s" % bb.which(bb.data.getVar('BBPATH', d, True), conf_file)
		return str


so it looks for a "files/fs-perms.txt" in BBPATH...

Cheers,

Richard
