Making Initial code base for IMX7

shashi_ray — Wed, 19 Sep 2018 07:42:41 GMT

Hi,

I am working on iMX7 dual processor with Yocto linux. To prepare the initial code base, there could be two options.

Option 1

Get the initial Yocto source code from yoctoproject git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky, checkout to any branch (preferably Sumo branch), add meta-freescale layer and do the yocto build and start working.

With this approach, kernel code is coming from git://github.com/Freescale/linux-fslc.git at 4.9-1.0.x-imx branch.

Option 2 (as per Freescale_Yocto_Project_User's_Guide.pdf)

Get the initial Yocto code with repo init -u git://git.freescale.com/imx/fsl-arm-yocto-bsp.git -b imx-4.1.15-1.0.0_ga and set up the project.

With this approach, kernel code is coming from git://git.freescale.com/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git at branch imx_4.1.15_1.0.0_ga. But, the branch imx-4.1.15-1.0.0_ga seems very old.

Can someone please recommend me which option shall I choose to setup the code base and work further so that I should get all the latest changes from NXP (Kernel change) as well as from Yocto project.

Thanks,

Shashi

Hi Shashi

one can use both options, as for nxp releases one can look at latest L4.9.88 nxp bsp

linux-imx - i.MX Linux kernel
