I am building with zeus 3.0.4, Intel based…

 

I trying to learn how to introduce a patch to files brought in by packages under “dynamic –layers”… my bbappend appears not to be applying my test patch (even though no errors/warnings thrown)…

 

This is the package I am trying to manipulate:

 

/disk0/scratch/smonsees/yocto/workspace_3/meta-intel/dynamic-layers/clang-layer/recipes-opencl/igc

It contains:

files  intel-graphics-compiler_1.0.11.bb

 

This is my recipe to apply patch:

 

/disk0/scratch/smonsees/yocto/workspace_3/meta-bae/meta-limws/meta-intel/dynamic-layers/clang-layer/recipes-opencl/igc

It contains:

files  intel-graphics-compiler_1.0.11.bbappend

 

files - contains the file I am attempting to patch (FILE_TO_PATCH.patch)

intel-graphics-compiler_1.0.11.bbappend is setup like so, where

 

FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/files:"

 

SRC_URI += "\

    file://FILE_TO_PATCH.patch \

"

 

I attempted to male use of BBFILES_DYNAMIC but even though I get no error, patch is not applied.

 

conf/layer.conf:

BBFILES_DYNAMIC += " \

    clang-layer:$(LAYERDIR)/dynamic-layers/clang-layer/recipes-opencl/igc/*.bbappend \

"

 

Can you explain to me the proper way to patch files under these circumstances and where I went wrong ?

 

Thanks,

Steve
