eIQ Tensorflow on i.MX8M Mini yocto

davidvescovi — Mon, 03 Jun 2019 19:06:27 GMT

I was following the new eIQ directions https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/nxp/user-guides/UM11226.pdf

My target is iMX8Mmini so I slightly changed the yocto build for the mini target.

Everything builds except when it come to including tensorflow in the image.

when I have local.conf line:

IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " arm-compute-library tensorflow-lite armnn onnxruntime"

everything builds fine but when I add the "tesorflow" component like the app note describes:

IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " arm-compute-library tensorflow tensorflow-lite armnn onnxruntime"

I get this error:

It looks like it has an issue with the COMPATIBLE_MACHINE. Is this enumerated somewhere in the recipes somewhere?

Looks like it does not complain when using the iMX8QM as the target.

Any advice?

FYI:

I was able to modify the tensorflow bb recipe at sources/meta-imx-meacinelearning/recipes-libraries/tensorflow/tensorflow_1.12.0.bb.

from COMPATIBLE_MACHINE = "(imx8qm)"

to COMPATIBLE_MACHINE = "(imx8qm|imx8m)"

builds fine now.
