+- ``Missing Upstream-Status in patch <patchfile> Please add according to <url> [patch-status-core/patch-status-noncore]``
+
+ The Upstream-Status value is missing in the specified patch file's header.
+ This value is intended to track whether or not the patch has been sent
+ upstream, whether or not it has been merged, etc.
+
+ There are two options for this same check - ``patch-status-core`` (for
+ recipes in OE-Core) and ``patch-status-noncore`` (for recipes in any other
+ layer).
+
+ For more information on setting Upstream-Status see:
+ https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/Commit_Patch_Message_Guidelines#Patch_Header_Recommendations:_Upstream-Status
+
+
+- ``Malformed Upstream-Status in patch <patchfile> Please correct according to <url> [patch-status-core/patch-status-noncore]``
+
+ The Upstream-Status value in the specified patch file's header is invalid -
+ it must be a specific format. See the "Missing Upstream-Status" entry above
+ for more information.
