At the end of this function, self.overrides is cleared, which means we'll
construct a new self.overrides after this call. And a new self.overrides
will give out different expand_cache, so the old expand_cache should also
be cleared to avoid any wrong value.
Currently, there's a problem revealed by recent recipe specific virtual
provider patch. If we enable multilib and set "OVERRIDES:prepend" in local.conf,
things don't work.
Here's the error message:
ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES 'lib32-gcc-cross-x86_64'
Below are reproduce steps:
1. Add in local.conf the following lines:
MACHINE ?= "qemux86-64"
require conf/multilib.conf
MULTILIBS ?= "multilib:lib32"
DEFAULTTUNE:virtclass-multilib-lib32 ?= "core2-32"
OVERRIDES:prepend = "some-override:"
(Note that using :append and :remove also reproduces the issue.)
2. bitbake -n lib32-sysstat
(bitbake -n core-image-minimal also reproduces the issue)
The expandWithRefs calls getVar, which fills expand_cache. So when setting
OVERRIDES:prepend, this will fill the expand_cache. When overridevars are updated,
if we don't clear expand_cache, we'll retrieve wrong values.
Previously, things happened to work because there's a call to expand
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/${TARGET_PREFIX}gcc, which in turn expands
TARGET_VENDOR. Now what we expand is PREFERRED_PROVIDER_ virtual/cross-cc,
so the problem is revealed.

Bitbake
=======
BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run
efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints.
One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software
stacks using a task-oriented approach.
For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website:
https://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated
html version at the Yocto Project website:
https://docs.yoctoproject.org
Bitbake requires Python version 3.8 or newer.
Contributing
------------
Please refer to our contributor guide here: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/contributor-guide/
for full details on how to submit changes.
As a quick guide, patches should be sent to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
The git command to do that would be:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
If you're sending a patch related to the BitBake manual, make sure you copy
the Yocto Project documentation mailing list:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org --cc docs@lists.yoctoproject.org

Testing
-------
Bitbake has a testsuite located in lib/bb/tests/ whichs aim to try and prevent regressions.
You can run this with "bitbake-selftest". In particular the fetcher is well covered since
it has so many corner cases. The datastore has many tests too. Testing with the testsuite is
recommended before submitting patches, particularly to the fetcher and datastore. We also
appreciate new test cases and may require them for more obscure issues.
To run the tests "zstd" and "git" must be installed.
The assumption is made that this testsuite is run from an initialized OpenEmbedded build
environment (i.e. `source oe-init-build-env` is used). If this is not the case, run the
testsuite as follows:
export PATH=$(pwd)/bin:$PATH
bin/bitbake-selftest
The testsuite can alternatively be executed using pytest, e.g. obtained from PyPI (in this
case, the PATH is configured automatically):
pytest
