Dear community,
I think I have managed to go some steps forward to rebuild the Intel Xeon Phi MPSS-3.2 release (with Yocto, poky, bitbake ...) to add some required features in our installation. Now I'm stuck at the following with missing source code to rebuild the minimal mpss image:
$ bitbake mpss-image-minimal WARNING: Host distribution "CentOS release 6.5 (Final)" has not been validated with this version of the build system; you may possibly experience unexpected failures. It is recommended that you use a tested distribution.

Missing or unbuildable dependency chain was: ['mpss-image-minimal', 'mpss-ofed', 'mpss-psm'] Summary: There was 1 WARNING message shown. Summary: There were 2 ERROR messages shown, returning a non-zero exit code.
The problem - I think - is the missing 'mpss-psm' recipe and source code in the released MPSS-3.2 source code packages.
Unfortunately, the documentation for system administration lacks behind the release of Yocto-based MPSS for months now (http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/system-administration-for-the-i...). Other technical information in the topic of the Yocto-based MPSS are still very rare, too. Documentation from other sources like success stories would be very nice.
Any help is appreciated. Creating something like a special support ticket for a required feature is not the way to go.
