[yocto] Force rebuild to regenerate .ko

[Kosta Zertsekel]

Please add more details.


For example, where ixgbe.ko resides (what layer)?

If it is in Linux kernel (linux-yocto package), then just:

$ bitbake linux-yocto -c cleanall

$ bitbake linux-yocto

Subject: [yocto] Force rebuild to regenerate .ko

I've a Intel Ethernet driver, ixgbe.ko.  I made some changes (debug logs) to the source file.  How do I force the .ko to be regenerated within yocto environment, without rebuilding the entire yocto code base?

I tried to do bitbake of the image name earlier, but bitbake decides that there's nothing to be done.  This is even after I'd removed the cache and sstate directories.

Thanks,
Raymond
