1. OpenEmbedded BSP Layer - RaspberryPi
|
|
=======================================
|
|
|
|
This is the general hardware specific BSP overlay for the RaspberryPi device.
|
|
It should be used with openembedded-core (not old-style org.openembedded.dev).
|
|
|
|
More information can be found at:
|
|
|
|
http://www.raspberrypi.org/ (Official Site)
|
|
http://www.distant-earth.com/ (My Site)
|
|
|
|
Build scripts patched to support making a firmware image for the RaspberryPi
|
|
with Angstrom can be found at:
|
|
|
|
http://github.com/Angstrom-distribution/setup-scripts
|
|
|
|
When not depending on meta-openembedded and not using systemd, you may need to
|
|
mask few recipes requiring systemd or other recipes not included in your
|
|
distribution of choice.
|
|
|
|
You can achieve this by adding something like the following to local.conf:
|
|
|
|
BBMASK = "meta-raspberrypi/recipes-multimedia/libav|\
|
|
meta-raspberrypi/recipes-core/systemd"
|
|
|
|
You can adjust the BBMASK for any .bbappends that your distribution does not
|
|
contain recipes for.
|
|
|
|
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 (main focus of testing).
|
|
* Yocto/Poky.
|
|
|
|
This layer in its entirety depends on:
|
|
|
|
URI: git://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core
|
|
branch: master
|
|
revision: HEAD
|
|
|
|
URI: git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded
|
|
branch: master
|
|
revision: HEAD
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Yocto BSP Layer - RaspberryPi
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
This layer depends on:
|
|
|
|
URI: git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
|
|
branch: master
|
|
revision: HEAD
|
|
|
|
URI: git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded
|
|
branch: master
|
|
revision: HEAD
|
|
|
|
How to use it:
|
|
|
|
1. source poky/oe-init-build-env rpi-build
|
|
2. Add needed layers to bblayers.conf:
|
|
- meta-raspberrypi
|
|
- meta-openembedded/meta-oe
|
|
3 Set MACHINE to raspberrypi in local.conf
|
|
4. bitbake rpi-hwup-image
|
|
5. dd to a SD card the generated sdimg file (use xzcat if rpi-sdimg.xz is used)
|
|
6. Boot your RPI.
|
|
|
|
2.A. Optional - compressed deployed files:
|
|
==========================================
|
|
1. Overwrite IMAGE_FSTYPES in local.conf
|
|
IMAGE_FSTYPES = "tar.bz2 ext3.xz rpi-sdimg.xz
|
|
2. Overwrite SDIMG_ROOTFS_TYPE in local.conf
|
|
SDIMG_ROOTFS_TYPE = "ext3.xz"
|
|
*Accommodate the values above to your own needs (ex: ext3 / ext4).
|
|
|
|
2.B. Optional - GPU memory:
|
|
===========================
|
|
Variable : Details
|
|
GPU_MEM : GPU memory in megabyte. Sets the memory split between the ARM and
|
|
GPU. ARM gets the remaining memory. Min 16. Default 64.
|
|
GPU_MEM_256 : GPU memory in megabyte for the 256MB Raspberry Pi. Ignored by the
|
|
512MB RP. Overrides gpu_mem. Max 192. Default not set.
|
|
GPU_MEM_512 : GPU memory in megabyte for the 512MB Raspberry Pi. Ignored by the
|
|
256MB RP. Overrides gpu_mem. Max 448. Default not set.
|
|
|
|
2.C.Optional - Add purchased license codecs:
|
|
============================================
|
|
To add you own licenses use variables KEY_DECODE_MPG2 and KEY_DECODE_WVC1 in
|
|
local.conf. Example:
|
|
KEY_DECODE_MPG2 = "12345678"
|
|
KEY_DECODE_WVC1 = "12345678"
|
|
You can supply more licenses separated by comma. Example:
|
|
KEY_DECODE_WVC1 = "0x12345678,0xabcdabcd,0x87654321"
|
|
|
|
2.D. Optional - Disable overscan:
|
|
=================================
|
|
By default the GPU adds a black border around the video output to compensate for
|
|
TVs which cut off part of the image. To disable this set this variable in
|
|
local.conf:
|
|
DISALE_OVERSCAN = "0"
|
|
|
|
2.E. Optional - Set overclocking options:
|
|
=========================================
|
|
The Raspberry PI can be overclocked. As of now overclocking up to the "Turbo
|
|
Mode" is officially supported by the raspbery and does not void warranty.
|
|
Check the config.txt for a detailed description of options and modes. Example:
|
|
# Turbo mode
|
|
ARM_FREQ = "1000"
|
|
CORE_FREQ = "500"
|
|
SDRAM_FREQ = "500"
|
|
OVER_VOLTAGE = "6"
|
|
|
|
|
