Jeff Ithier f046b4128c Generalize the naming of the bootfiles deploy directory
The raspberry pi 4 variant has a BCM2711 chip, however it still
uses the same boot files as the BCM2835 used in previous generations.
This change generalizes the naming of the directory generated in the
$DEPLOY_DIR to avoid the implication that the files are only
meant for the BCM2835.

meta-raspberrypi

Yocto BSP layer for the Raspberry Pi boards - http://www.raspberrypi.org/.

Build Status Build Status Build Status Build Status Documentation Status Matrix

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

  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

Quick Start with kas

  1. Install kas build tool from PyPi (sudo pip3 install kas)
  2. kas build meta-raspberrypi/kas-poky-rpi.yml
  3. Use bmaptool to copy the generated .wic.bz2 file to the SD card
  4. 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.
