Yocto adding patch in custom layer

  1. Created a new custom layer named meta-mylayer
  2. Assigned Priority 6
  3. Added patches to folder meta-mylayer/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-ti-staging/XXX-evm
  4. Added patches entry in meta-mylayer/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-ti-staging_%.bbappend
  5. Compile code, bitbake -C compile linux-ti-staging

Compilation fails while Patching, when BBFILE_PRIORITY_meta-mylayer = "6" but when BBFILE_PRIORITY_meta-mylayer = "16" patching & compilation succeeds.

bitbake -e linux-ti-staging | grep ^SRC_URI List patching sequence.

when BBFILE_PRIORITY=6 patches in meta-mylayer are applied first. BBFILE_PRIORITY_meta-mylayer = "16" meta-mylayer Patches are applied in the end.

In my understanding ** higher numeric value represents a higher priority**, in that case why BBFILE_PRIORITY_meta-mylayer = "16" Patches are applied in the end?
