When run:
green@green13:~/green/build$bitbake core-image-minimal
I can see the branch versions as below and it will start the build but I only need these info outputs and do not really need to start the build, how can I do it?
Build Configuration:
BB_VERSION = "1.46.0"
BUILD_SYS = "x86_64-linux"
NATIVELSBSTRING = "universal"
TARGET_SYS = "aarch64-poky-linux"
MACHINE = "qemuarm64"
DISTRO = "poky"
DISTRO_VERSION = "3.1.14"
TUNE_FEATURES = "aarch64 armv8a crc"
TARGET_FPU = ""
meta
meta-poky
meta-yocto-bsp = "HEAD:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
meta-oe
meta-python
meta-filesystems
meta-networking = "HEAD:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
meta-virtualization = "HEAD:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
You can do:
bitbake core-image-minimal -n
-n arguments performs a dry run, technically it starts the build but it wont do much and it'll finish in a few seconds.
For example:
$ bitbake core-image-minimal -n
