Description
This is the general hardware specific BSP overlay for the RaspberryPi device.
More information can be found at: http://www.raspberrypi.org/ (Official Site)
The core BSP part of meta-raspberrypi should work with different
OpenEmbedded/Yocto distributions and layer stacks, such as:
- Distro-less (only with OE-Core).
- Angstrom.
- Yocto/Poky (main focus of testing).
Dependencies
This layer depends on:
-
URI: git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
- branch: master
- revision: HEAD
-
URI: git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded
- layers: meta-oe, meta-multimedia, meta-networking, meta-python
- branch: master
- revision: HEAD
Quick Start
- source poky/oe-init-build-env rpi-build
- Add this layer to bblayers.conf and the dependencies above
- Set MACHINE in local.conf to one of the supported boards
- bitbake core-image-base
- dd to a SD card the generated sdimg file (use xzcat if rpi-sdimg.xz is used)
- Boot your RPI.
Quick Start with kas
- Install kas build tool from PyPi (sudo pip3 install kas)
- kas build meta-raspberrypi/kas-poky-rpi.yml
- dd to a SD card the generated sdimg file (use xzcat if rpi-sdimg.xz is used)
- Boot your RPI.
To adjust the build configuration with specific options (I2C, SPI, ...), simply add
a section as follows:
local_conf_header:
rpi-specific:, ENABLE_I2C = "1"
RPI_EXTRA_CONFIG = "dtoverlay=pi3-disable-bt"
To configure the machine, you have to update the machine variable.
And the same for the distro.
