first of all, it's not the right mailing list for such questions. you
should use openemebedded-core or yocto list.

<target> is a recipe name.

bitbake -c <task> <target> will complete the <task> for <target>, as
well as as dependent tasks. "cleanall" will in turn run the 'make
clean' command in your WORKDIR, clean up the sstate folder for
<target>, and remove any files downloaded by <target> from DOWNLOADS
folder. but it won't clean up tmp/deploy/images, you need to
manage/cleanup this folder yourself.
