Keeping the rt recipes in their own layer has led to maintenance issues, particularly with the linux-yocto-rt recipes. As these kernel types are part of the same linux-yocto source repository, it seems reasonable to include the rt kernel recipes alongside the standard recipes. A new recipes-rt directory for the other recipes provides adequate separation and eliminates the need for a separate layer. As there is no meta-rt/conf/layer.conf to force the kernel, users must now specify the rt kernel in their local.conf or in the machine.conf: PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "linux-yocto-rt" The merging of the rt recipes into the core also eliminates complications with multiple layer dependencies for new BSP layers. Having to either separate RT BSPs from standard BSPs or force users to add meta-rt to bblayers even when not building an RT BSP (because the RT BSPs in the same layer would fail to parse without it) was sub-optimal at best.

Poky
====
Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged
build system and development environment. It features support for building
customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images
featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports
cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a
standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.
Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports
is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added
in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.
As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as
BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information
e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.
The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a
reference manual which can be found at:
http://yoctoproject.org/community/documentation
