In sanity checks, the filter is not called and the variable DISTRO_FEATURES is not finalized. Several layers have such a sanity check: https://github.com/ni/meta-security/blob/nilrt/master/scarthgap/classes/sanity-meta-security.bbclass, https://github.com/rauc/meta-rauc/blob/master/classes-global/sanity-meta-rauc.bbclass As an example, the rauc sanity check will raise a warning when 'rauc' in declared in DISTRO_FEATURES_DEFAULTS but not in DISTRO_FEATURES. What is the expected behaviour in this case ?
