Porting a Custom Board and Manufacturing Tool Firmware

PaulDeMetrotion — Fri, 03 Nov 2017 15:54:44 GMT

I have created recipes to create u-boot and Linux for a custom board based on the i.MX6DL processor. I am trying unsuccessfully to build the manufacturing tool firmware for this new device.

If I select the default board (imx6qsabresd) and execute 'bitbake fsl-image-mfgtool-initramfs', all firmware is built properly. If I select my custom board, I get build errors shown below. What am I missing in my custom board recipes that could cause this? I have done this same thing for other custom boards without any problems.

Hello,

Is it possible to build at least minimal (non MFG) system with Your configuration ?

Have a great day,

Yuri

I can build fsl-image-gui with no problems. In my machine configuration file, I specify u-boot-c428dl and linux-c428dl. But with the manufacturing tool, it builds u-boot-mfgtool and linux-mfgtool. How can I integrate my custom recipes into the manufacturing tool build?

Here is the machine file:

require conf/machine/include/imx-base.inc
require conf/machine/include/tune-cortexa9.inc

SOC_FAMILY = "mx6:mx6dl:mx6q"

KERNEL_DEVICETREE = "imx6dl-c428.dtb"

PREFERRED_PROVIDER_u-boot_mx6dl = "u-boot-c428dl"
PREFERRED_VERSION_u-boot-c428dl ?= "2015.04"
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel_mx6dl = "linux-c428dl"
PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-c428dl ?= "4.1.15"

UBOOT_CONFIG ??= "spinor"
UBOOT_CONFIG[sd] = "mx6dlc428_config,sdcard"
UBOOT_CONFIG[spinor] = "mx6dlc428_spinor_config"
UBOOT_CONFIG[mfgtool] = "mx6dlc428_config"

SERIAL_CONSOLE = "115200 ttymxc0"

MACHINE_FEATURES += " alsa apm ext2 keyboard pci rtc screen touchscreen serial usbgadget usbhost vfat"

Hello,

the following may be helpful.

Build Manufacturing Firmware

No need to rebuild U-boot.

As for kernel, a manufacturing tool kernel is built using the imx_v7_mfg_defconfig,

while the default kernel is built by using the imx_v7_defconfig.

Regards,

Yuri.
