[Yocto] CONFIG_LOCALVERSION has no effect

[petertseng]

Hi NXP,

I create patches for the kernel (linux-imx_5.15.bbappend), but the kernel versions are shown to be: Linux version 5.15.71

FILESEXTRAPATHS:prepend := "${THISDIR}/${PN}:"
SRC_URI += "file://0001-my-released.patch"

KERNEL_VERSION_SANITY_SKIP="1"
KERNEL_DEBUG_TIMESTAMPS = "1"
SCMVERSION = "n"

The meta-imx/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-imx_5.15.bb has the option:

LOCALVERSION = "-lts-next"

So I guess the correct kernel version should be: Linux version 5.15.71-lts-next

And I check linux-imx/5.15.71+gitAUTOINC+d286e47181-r0/build/.config

The content inside is always:

CONFIG_LOCALVERSION=""
CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO=y

I tried adding the patch from

https://github.com/Freescale/meta-freescale/commit/e5401e6aebbc15617b4397db6cb5fa103db144bc

However, the display of the kernel version has not changed.

Hi Joanxie,

I have switched to using the LF6.1.22-2.0.0 imx manifest.

This issue has been resolved.
