oelint.func.specific

severity: error

Example

do_install:append:fooarch() {
    abc
}

or

do_install:qemuall () {
    cp -r ${B}/testsuite ${D}${PTEST_PATH}/
    cp ${B}/.config      ${D}${PTEST_PATH}/
    ln -s /bin/busybox   ${D}${PTEST_PATH}/busybox
}

Why is this bad?

The override item should be known from either MACHINE, MACHINEOVERRIDES, PACKAGES or DISTRO, otherwise there is a high chance that the function will never get run.

Ways to fix it

Use a known override - See the corresponding README section or if it's a PACKAGE set

PACKAGE_BEFORE_PN += "${PN}-mypackage"

FILES:${PN}-mypackage += "some/file"
