2248 Configures the OpenEmbedded build system to search other
2249 mirror locations for prebuilt cache data objects before
2250 building out the data.
2251 This variable works like fetcher
2252 <filename>MIRRORS</filename>/<filename>PREMIRRORS</filename>
2253 and points to the cache locations to check for the shared
2254 objects.

2258 You can specify a filesystem directory or a remote URL such
2259 as HTTP or FTP.
2260 The locations you specify need to contain the shared state
2261 cache (sstate-cache) results from previous builds.
2262 The sstate-cache you point to can also be from builds on
2263 other machines.

2266 <para>
2267 If a mirror uses the same structure as
2268 <link linkend='var-SSTATE_DIR'><filename>SSTATE_DIR</filename></link>,
2269 you need to add
2270 "PATH" at the end as shown in the examples below.
2271 The build system substitues the correct path within the
2272 directory structure.
