Hi, I am using ConnectCore6UL and everything works well however I need to use Digi-Embedded-Linux kernel with permanent changes.
I am following the guide on Digi website (link).
I have updated the conf/local.conf in the root of the project to include
INHERIT += "externalsrc"
EXTERNALSRC_pn-linux-dey = "/home/dey/linux"
I don’t think this works though as I am still not seeing the dts changes that exist in repository of /home/dey/linux. The build process still seems to pull the linux kernel from
github.com:digi-embedded/linux.git
I don’t have any additional recipes that would affect the linux-dey recipe.
I tried adding creating a linux-dey_%.bb recipe in my layer.
LICENSE = "CLOSED"
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = ""
FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}:"
SRC_URI := "/home/dey/linux"
S = "${WORKDIR}/home/dey/linux"
inherit externalsrc
EXTERNALSRC = "/home/dey/linux"
EXTERNALSRC_BUILD = "${EXTERNALSRC}"
SRCBRANCH = "v5.15/nxp/dey-4.0/maint"
SRCREV = "${AUTOREV}"
But this leads to a huge number of errors.

Would be great to know if I am doing something wrong or there is something missing.
Thanks in advance.
