From 6e5d021cd6f80401978fd018554cfb891e8fd43b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Antonin Godard Date: Wed, 16 Jul 2025 11:10:07 +0200 Subject: dev-manual/start.rst: remove basic setup for hash equivalence Quoting Alexander Kanavin [1]: > 1. BB_HASHSERVE and BB_SIGNATURE_HANDLER do not set up or start a > server, they set up the hash equivalence client built into bitbake. > > 2. The above client configuration (used by poky) also starts a private > server that is specific to a particular build directory. So hash equiv > information would not be shared between multiple build directories, > and this will cause sstate mismatches (as reported in the bug), if > sstate is shared. This setup does not shed light on the potential of the hash equivalence feature. So for now, remove this basic setup, and later rework the concepts (or create a new) document that explains how to set up a hash equivalence server shared between builds.
