Hi,
While attempting to build linux-xilinx, I get the following warning:
WARNING: linux-xilinx: No generic license file exists for: GPL in any provider
What should I do to fix this warning?
Best regards,
Elvis Dowson

You could ignore it, or you could fix the linux-xilinx recipe. FYI what it's
really saying is "GPL" by itself is not really specific enough. The recipe
should be stating "GPLv2" or "GPLv3" or whichever version the software being
built is really licensed under. Being that it sounds like it's the Linux
kernel one would assume "GPLv2" would be the correct answer for the linux-
xilinx recipe.
Cheers,
Paul
