There is no such ${WORKDIR}/linux. On my system, I found the kernel sources (but no .config file, is this expected?) under ${WORKDIR}/linux-${PACKAGE_ARCH}-${LINUX_KERNEL_TYPE}-build/source (which is a symlink to another folder). 59115 1 srifenbark 2016-02-16 17:09:31 +0000 Hi, I am adding Darren to this bug... Darren, can you look at the http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.0/kernel-dev/kernel-dev.html#modifying-source-code section of the kernel-dev manual and comment? Thanks, Scott 59693 2 srifenbark 2016-03-03 17:38:25 +0000 Setting to NEEDINFO. I need input on this bug for the docs. Scott 60502 3 sjolley.yp.pm 2016-03-29 18:30:41 +0000 Assigned to Darren to get the NEEDINFO. Darren, if you are not the right person to provide that, please assign to someone on the kernel team. 61106 4 srifenbark 2016-04-12 18:19:00 +0000 Setting to 2.2.... Not going to get the time to get this in before doc freeze.

Sorry for the delay, you are correct, the source actually moved a couple of releases ago to the work-shared area, thus the symlink you mentioned above. So the sources are in ${WORKDIR}/linux-${PACKAGE_ARCH}-${LINUX_KERNEL_TYPE}-build/source which points to tmp/work-shared/${MACHINE}/kernel-source (which is ${STAGING_KERNEL_DIR}). The .config once generated via the kernel_configme task is in ${WORKDIR}/linux-${PACKAGE_ARCH}-${LINUX_KERNEL_TYPE}-build/.config I need to work with ScottR to update that section as at this point the devtool would be a good item to mention also. 61733 7 srifenbark 2016-04-27 16:04:10 +0000 Yes, We need to look at that section referenced in Comment 1 and move forward with the docs for the 2.1+ stuff.
