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 differentOpenEmbedded/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).

This layer is officially approved as part of theYocto Project Compatible Layers Program. You can find details of that on the official Yocto Projectwebsite.

This layer depends on:

• URI: git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
  • branch: master
  • revision: HEAD

1. source poky/oe-init-build-env rpi-build
2. Add this layer to bblayers.conf and the dependencies above
3. Set MACHINE in local.conf to one of the supported boards
4. bitbake core-image-base
5. Use bmaptool to copy the generated .wic.bz2 file to the SD card
6. Boot your RPI

1. Install kas build tool from PyPi (sudo pip3 install kas)
2. Set themachine: in kas-poky-rpi.yml to one of the supported boards (see conf/machine/*.conf)
3. kas build meta-raspberrypi/kas-poky-rpi.yml
4. Use bmaptool to copy the generated .wic.bz2 file to the SD card
5. Boot your RPI

To adjust the build configuration with specific options (I2C, SPI, ...), simply adda section as follows:

local_conf_header:  rpi-specific: |    ENABLE_I2C = "1"    RPI_EXTRA_CONFIG = "dtoverlay=disable-bt"

To configure the machine, you have to update themachine variable.And the same for thedistro.

You can send patches using the GitHub pull request process or/and through theYocto mailing list. Refer to thedocumentationfor more information.
