Incompatible layer Error with Yocto Rocko

[bilalmalik76]

I am trying to integrate meta-aws layer with Yocto project which is based on Rocko branch. I am getting an error of incompatible with core layer. There is no branch for rocko in meta-aws. is it possible to use meta-aws with Yocto based on Rocko branch:

Hello @bilalmalik76 the team is not supporting rocko directly. You might try forking the sumo branch and changing the layer compat as a start? Can you please let us know the BSP and MACHINE configuration? If the silicon is still in mass production we might consider it.

Hi, @rpcme I am using MSM8909 from Qualcomm. I ported the master branch to Rocko and able to build it with Yocto Rocko version.

Okay this seems ok now. If you would like to contribute the Rocko port (just do PR to rocko release branch) we will review it.
