SPDX-License-Identifier: CC-BY-SA-2.0-UK + +Locking and Unlocking Recipes Using ``bblock`` +********************************************** + +By design, the OpenEmbedded build system builds everything from scratch +unless BitBake determines that specific tasks do not require rebuilding. +At startup, it computes a signature for all tasks, based on the task's input. +Then, it compares these signatures with the ones from the sstate (if they +exist). Any changes cause the task to rerun. + +During development, changes might trigger BitBake to rebuild certain +recipes, even when we know they do not require rebuilding at that stage. +For example, modifying a recipe can lead to rebuilding its native +counterpart, which might prove unnecessary. Editing the ``python3`` recipe, +for instance, can prompt BitBake to rebuild ``python3-native`` along with any +recipes that depend on it. + +To prevent this, use ``bblock`` to lock specific tasks or recipes to +specific signatures, forcing BitBake to use the sstate cache for them. + +.. attention:: + + Use ``bblock`` only during the development phase. + + Forcing BitBake to use sstate cache, regardless of input changes, means + the recipe metadata no longer directly reflect the output.
