For non local archive downloads the code can verify sha256 and md5 checksums for the download to ensure the file has been downloaded correctly. These may be specified either in the form <varname>SRC_URI[md5sum]</varname> for the md5 checksum and <varname>SRC_URI[sha256sum]</varname> for the sha256 checksum or as parameters on the SRC_URI such as SRC_URI="http://example.com/foobar.tar.bz2;md5sum=4a8e0f237e961fd7785d19d07fdb994d". If <varname>BB_STRICT_CHECKSUM</varname> is set, any download without a checksum will trigger an error message.
