+Bitbake
|
|
|
+=======
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run
|
|
|
+efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints.
|
|
|
+One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software
|
|
|
+stacks using a task-oriented approach.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website:

|
+ http://www.openembedded.org/
|
|
|

|
|
|
+Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated
|
|
|
+html version at the Yocto Project website:

|
|
|
+Please refer to
|
|
|
+http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded
|
|
|
+for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended
|
|
|
+for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org)
|
|
|
+but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send
|
|
|
+the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current
|
|
|
+branch, type:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
