Description
Course starts with a brief introduction about yocto fundamentals and architecture, poky reference system, bitbake, meta open embedded core, yocto board support package. Then it helps to step by step procedure to setup yocto build system for beagleboneblack, starts from installing dependencies, downloading the poky system from yocto-project git repository, preparing build environment, build targets, building core-image-minimal and various targets, flashing the image into beagleboneblack.
This also provides the information about yocto meta-data, recipes, bitbake files, bitbake append files, class file and etc.
Yocto bitbake layers with various options like show-layers, show-recipes, create-layer, add-layer, remove-layer, show-cross-depends, layerindex-fetch, show-overlays.
Helps you to create new yocto layer starting from a simple helloworld to optimized custom yocto board support package layer. Also it provides information to create recipes with starting from a helloworld, custom full feature media box image generation recipes and recipe to add IoT gateway middleware framework and applications.
