Yocto distributions version 2.7 Warrior and 2.4 Rocko were used during this building process.
Install prerequisites
These software modules are required by Ubuntu 16.04/18.04 operating systems in order to set up the compiling environment successfully:
sudo apt-get install gawk wget git-core diffstat unzip texinfo gcc-multilib \ build-essential chrpath socat cpio python python3 python3-pip python3-pexpect \ xz-utils debianutils iputils-ping libsdl1.2-dev xterm
sudo apt-get install autoconf libtool libglib2.0-dev libarchive-dev python-git \ sed cvs subversion coreutils texi2html docbook-utils python-pysqlite2 \ help2man make gcc g++ desktop-file-utils libgl1-mesa-dev libglu1-mesa-dev \ mercurial automake groff curl lzop asciidoc u-boot-tools dos2unix mtd-utils pv \ libncurses5 libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev libelf-dev zlib1g-dev
More information about Yocto requirements can be found on Freescale GitHub page.
Download and install repo utility
mkdir -pv ~/workdir/bin/repo curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/workdir/bin/repo/repo chmod a+x ~/workdir/bin/repo/repo export PATH=~/workdir/bin/repo:$PATH
Initialize Yocto project
Downloading the BSP Yocto Project Environment version 2.7 Warrior:
mkdir -pv ~/workdir/voipac/imx53/yocto/fsl-community-bsp-platform_2_7 cd ~/workdir/voipac/imx53/yocto/fsl-community-bsp-platform_2_7 repo init -u https://github.com/Freescale/fsl-community-bsp-platform -b warrior
Initialize Voipac layer
Addidng Voipac support:
mkdir -pv .repo/local_manifests/
cat > .repo/local_manifests/vmx.xml << EOF
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<remote fetch="git://github.com/Voipac" name="voipac"/>
<project remote="voipac" revision="meta-freescale-vmx-warrior" name="yocto-vmx" path="sources/meta-freescale-vmx">
<copyfile src="vmx-setup.sh" dest="vmx-setup.sh"/>
</project>
</manifest>
EOF
Synchronize repositories
cd ~/workdir/voipac/imx53/yocto/fsl-community-bsp-platform_2_7 export PATH=~/workdir/bin/repo:$PATH repo sync
Configure
Adding Voipac meta layer into BSP:
source vmx-setup.sh patch -p1 < sources/meta-freescale-vmx/meta-freescale_recipes-bsp_barebox_barebox_inc.patch
Building images
Building workarounds
This workaround is applied for Yocto version 2.4 Rocko on Ubuntu 16.04 operation system:
Issue: Barebox compiled using Yocto toolchain does not boot from NAND Flash memory
Workaround: Compile Barebox manually using toolchain from Ubuntu repository
Build customization
By modifying configuration files additional custom features can be easily included. All there modules were successfully added into Yocto version 2.4 Rocko.
Edit file: /workdir/vmx/yocto/fsl-community-bsp/build-dir/conf/local.conf:
IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " \
dropbear \

Supported options
Supported machines:
vmx53
Supported Freescale distros:
fslc-framebuffer fslc-wayland fslc-x11 fslc-xwayland
Building images
General build process is defined in this format:
MACHINE=<machine name> DISTRO=<distro name> source setup-environment build-dir MACHINE=<machine name> bitbake core-image-base
Building i.MX53_SODIMM_PC Module images can be achieved using this command:
MACHINE=vmx53 DISTRO=fslc-framebuffer source ./setup-environment build-fb MACHINE=vmx53 bitbake core-image-base
Setup and build format for Toolchain:
MACHINE=<machine name> DISTRO=<distro name> source setup-environment build-dir MACHINE=<machine name> DISTRO=<distro name> bitbake meta-toolchain
Output files
Output images and archives are stored in these directories:
cd ~/workdir/vmx/yocto/fsl-community-bsp/build-dir/tmp/deploy/images cd ~/workdir/vmx/yocto/fsl-community-bsp/build-dir/tmp/deploy/sdk
