The commit that Beth references in comment #1 shows how to set up an autobuilder.conf file.  We had this enabled, but decided not to enable it full time.  If you have an autobuilder setup, you can set the repo and alternate provider in the config file and then build it to verify which kernel is used

Hi,

Verified in master, commit: 98bf95e2cc6ea52c5e7141cc91b028fd5a5a547e.
Linux-yocto-dev was built when using: 
{'CreateAutoConf': {'machine': 'qemux86', 'SDKMACHINE' : 'i686', 'distro': 'poky', 'buildhistory' : False, 'atextappend' : '\nPREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel="linux-yocto-dev"\n'}} in the buildstep config.

Cheers,
Ionut C
