NXP Versioning Scheme for kernel/u-boot/yocto

[mprt42]

Hi,

quick question: How can I read the NXP versioning numbers?

e.g.: lf-5.15.71-2.2.1

How can I read that?
What does "lf" stand for?
what's 2.2.1 ?

5.15.71 is the kernel version? So it must be yocto kirkstone?

Thanks for enlightening me!

Hi,

Please refer to release note, we have some related information about these there.

The GA releases are named L<Kernel_version>_<x.y.z>.
<Kernel_version>: BSP Kernel version (For example, L5.15.71 indicates that this BSP release is based
on the kernel version 5.15.71).
<x.y.z>: Semantic versioning specification, where X is the major version, Y is the minor version, and Z is the patch version.

LF stands for Linux Factory.   IMX_LINUX_RELEASE_NOTES.pdf
