Recently, some customers encountered the problem that compilation failed when compiling l4.14.98-2.0.0 fsl-imx-waylan + fsl-image-qt5-validation-imx in Ubuntu 18.04 environment. In fact, compiling QT image is a very time-consuming process, especially in the process of compiling, errors need to be handled, which will be more time-consuming. The following compilation took four days to complete. 1. Environment Linux Host : ubuntu 18.04 LTS Virtual Machine: VMware workstatin Player 12 images: fsl-imx-waylan + fsl-image-qt5-validation-imx Hardware: imx8mqevk Linux BSP verison: L4.14.98-2.0.0 2. Steps (1)Installation of Ubuntu 18.04 2.Update software 3. Installing software package for compiling BSP # sudo apt-get install flex # sudo apt-get install bison # sudo apt-get install gperf # sudo apt-get install build-essential # sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev # sudo apt-get install lib32ncurses5-dev # sudo apt-get install x11proto-core-dev # sudo apt-get install libx11-dev # sudo apt-get install lib32z1-dev # sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dev # sudo apt-get install tofrodos # sudo apt-get install python-markdown # sudo apt-get install libxml2-utils # sudo apt-get install xsltproc # sudo apt-get install uuid-dev:i386 liblzo2-dev:i386 # sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib g++-multilib # sudo apt-get install subversion # sudo apt-get install openssh-server openssh-client # sudo apt-get install uuid uuid-dev # sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev liblz-dev # sudo apt-get install liblzo2-2 liblzo2-dev # sudo apt-get install lzop # sudo apt-get install git-core curl # sudo apt-get install u-boot-tools # sudo apt-get install mtd-utils # sudo apt-get install android-tools-fsutils # sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk # sudo apt-get install device-tree-compiler # sudo apt-get install aptitude # sudo aptitude install libcurl4-openssl-dev nss-updatedb From i.MX_Yocto_Project_User's_Guide.pdf: # sudo apt-get install gawk wget git-core diffstat unzip texinfo gcc-multilib \ build-essential chrpath socat libsdl1.2-dev 4. Downloading Yocto BSP according to steps in i.MX_Yocto_Project_User's_Guide.pdf 5.Compiling L4.14.98-2.0.0 BSP # cd ~/imx-yocto-bsp # DISTRO=fsl-imx-wayland MACHINE=imx8mqevk source fsl-setup-release.sh -b build-wayland # bitbake fsl-image-qt5-validation-imx In the process of compilation, there have been many "fetch errors", which are caused by disconnection or timeout of network connection. We just need to run the bitmake command again in the build Wayland subdirectory to continue the compilation. # bitbake fsl-image-qt5-validation-imx Fetching errors below were what I encountered: The following picture is to re-run “bitbake fsl-image-qt5-validation-imx” after fetch errors occurred. In order to improve the speed of compilation , I re-configured vmware player, assigning 6 CPU cores for Ubuntu. Compilation is a long and arduous process. It took 4 days to compile normally with error handling. Finally, the compilation was completed. NXP TIC Team Weidong Sun 2019-11-02
