}

What is the meaning of the __anonymous function here?

Answer 1

In a BitBake recipe, anonymous python code is executed after the recipe is parsed. You can almost think of it as "post-processing" for a recipe. That's all there is to it. Bitbake executes the code within the anonymous block after the recipe is parsed.
