Description Mikko Ylinen 2017-06-06 15:01:34 UTC
ROOTFS_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND += "write_image_test_data ; " makes rootfs taskhash host specific due to TOPDIR.

TOPDIR was added in 7f9f1bdd714fbc6b2adc62f64bf0e4fd1d98ce05.

I can. I was just wondering whether TOPDIR is better in BB_HASHBASE_WHITELIST (TMPDIR is there).

I believe this should now be fixed as of:

Thanks! Still wondering the answer to my question in comment #2.

Well, FYI when I asked RP a similar question in relation to my fix he said that he didn't think it would be right to generally whitelist TOPDIR.
