I have a yocto recipe to compile a code from github. I modified some files and want to apply a patch to code fetched from github. Following is my recipe for building code.

SUMMARY = "Linux NFC stack for NCI based NXP NFC Controllers"
HOMEPAGE = "https://github.com/NXPNFCLinux/linux_libnfc-nci"
LICENSE = "Apache-2.0"
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://src/include/linux_nfc_api.h;endline=17;md5=42fdb99b3ff2c12f594b22a774cb7308"
SECTION = "libs"

SRC_URI = "git://github.com/NXPNFCLinux/linux_libnfc-nci.git \
 
file:///home/pratyush/Desktop/custom_board/drivers/PN7150/linux_libnfc-nci/demoapp-main-patch1.patch"
SRCREV = "7cf539d3d9c0d682c8da5968fbf5615ae9993060"
PV = "2.1+git${SRCPV}"
EXTRA_OECONF =" --enable-pn7150"

S = "${WORKDIR}/git"

inherit autotools
FILES_${PN} += "${libdir}/libnfc_nci_linux-1.so"
FILES_SOLIBSDEV = "${libdir}/libnfc_nci_linux.so"

Thus I want to apply a patch from local to github fetched code. But whenever I try to bitbake apply patch I always get the following error:

can't find file to patch at input line 3

The problem is how you created your patch. The easiest way (if you're used to git) is to use git. Otherwise, diffing two complete source trees is a good and easy way.

One way to solve your issue would be to add ;striplevel=0 to the SRC_URI line. (A strip level of 1 is assumed by bitbake / OE).

Another way would be to modify your patch to start with:

--- a/Makefile.am
+++ b/Makefile.am

That should solve your problem.
