Description Ross Burton 2025-05-06 15:27:11 UTC 
The kmod test needs the kernel-devsrc package in the SDK.  For conventional SDKs this is fine, but for minimal eSDKs we'd usually just devtool sdk-install that recipe, but there is no populate_sysroot task as it's been deleted:

Initialising tasks...
ERROR: Task do_populate_sysroot does not exist for target kernel-devsrc (/srv/pokybuild/yocto-worker/qemuarm/build/build/tmp/work/qemuarm-poky-linux-gnueabi/core-image-minimal/1.0/testsdkext/layers/build/meta/recipes-kernel/linux/kernel-devsrc.bb:do_populate_sysroot).
