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).
Yoe Disto (Video and Camera Products).
Yocto/Poky (main focus of testing).
Dependencies¶
This layer depends on:
URI: git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
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
Use bmaptool to copy the generated .wic.bz2 file to the SD card
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
Use bmaptool to copy the generated .wic.bz2 file to the SD card
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
.
