This is sample code for CSC settings for /dev/fb1. It can calculating the CSC matrix and updates in real time from given parameters(Brightness,Contrast,Saturation,Hue, and gamma).

Building using Yocto 1 - Baking (building) the kernel When an image is built using Yocto (for more details about how to build an image, check the Yocto training home: https://community.nxp.com/docs/DOC-94849) the kernel is automatically built and the kernel image is located at /fsl-community-bsp/build/tmp/deploy/images/<your_target>/uImage If you want to build only the kernel, the following command can be used: $ bitbake linux-imx     2 - Configuring the kernel To call the kernel menuconfig, run the command: $ bitbake -c menuconfig linux-imx    A new terminal window will open with the kernel menuconfig. Make changes if needed, exit the configmenu and copy the .config generated file to defconfig as following: $ cp tmp/work/imx6qsabresd-poky-linux-gnueabi/linux-imx/3.0.35-r33.10/git/.config ../sources/meta-fsl-arm/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-imx-3.0.35/mx6/defconfig    Note that the kernel version, in this case "3.0.35-r33.10" may change. 3 - Cleaning and building again with the new configuration With the new defconfig saved on the correct folder (step 2), it's time to clear all previous kernel and build it again: $ bitbake -c cleansstate linux-imx $ bitbake <your_image>       or         $ bitbake linux-imx    The uImage will be under tmp/deploy/image Building without a BSP 1- Downloading the kernel source code Choose what kernel you will build. Usually, the NXP kernel or mainline (kernel.org) kernel: For NXP kernel (more details on https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/linux-imx/ ) use: $ git clone https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/linux-imx                 For Mainline kernel (more details on https://www.kernel.org/ ) use: $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git                2 - Choose which branch will you use Once downloaded, check the available branches by using: $ git branch -a   master   remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master   remotes/origin/imx_4.9.123_imx8mm_ga   remotes/origin/imx_4.9.51_imx8_beta1   remotes/origin/imx_4.9.51_imx8_beta2   remotes/origin/imx_4.9.51_imx8m_beta   remotes/origin/imx_4.9.51_imx8m_ga   remotes/origin/imx_4.9.88_2.0.0_ga   remotes/origin/imx_4.9.88_imx8mm_alpha   remotes/origin/imx_4.9.88_imx8qxp_beta2   remotes/origin/master Make a local branch, based on a branch you choose from the list: $ git checkout -b local_branch origin/imx_4.9.88_2.0.0_ga *NOTES:      On command above my local branch name is "local_branch". You can choose this name as you prefer                     The chosen branch was origin/imx_4.9.88_2.0.0_ga. You can choose another one, always starting by origin/....... 3 - Setting the environment variables 3.1 - Using Yocto Toolchain If you're using the Yocto SDK (Check the Yocto training at NXP community: https://community.nxp.com/docs/DOC-94849 ), just execute the script to export the needed environment variables, e.g.: $ source /opt/poky/1.6+snapshot/environment-setup-cortexa9hf-vfp-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi  $ unset LDFLAGS      If you're using another toolchain, the common environment variables to set are the following: $ export PATH=$PATH:/opt/freescale/usr/local/gcc-4.6.2-glibc-2.13-linaro-multilib-2011.12/fsl-linaro-toolchain/bin/ $ export TOOLCHAIN=/opt/freescale/usr/local/gcc-4.6.2-glibc-2.13-linaro-multilib-2011.12/fsl-linaro-toolchain/ $ export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- $ export ARCH=arm IMPORTANT: Change the variables above according your installed toolchain. 3.2 - Using Ubuntu Toolchain For 64-bits processors (i.MX8 family) Install the GCC toolchain for 64 bits: sudo apt-get install gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu Export the environment variables: $ export ARCH=arm64 $ export CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu- For 32-bits processors (i.MX2, i.MX3, i.MX5 and i.MX6 families) Install the GCC toolchain for 32 bits: sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi Export the environment variables: export ARCH=arm export CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi- 4 - Configuring the kernel If you're building for i.MX6 and i.MX5, configure the kernel options based on file imx_v7_defconfig: $ cp arch/arm/configs/imx_v7_defconfig .config $ make menuconfig  $ make If you're building for i.MX8 family, configure the kernel options based on file arm64/defconfig:       $ cp arch/arm64/configs/defconfig .config       $ make menuconfig       $ make 5 - Building the modules After step 4, only the kernel (uImage file) was generated. The kernel modules must be built and installed in a known path. First, build the modules: $ make modules             And install them: $ make modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/path_where_you_want_to_install

Hello Community, Freescale’s MFG Tool Updated for Windows Embedded Compact and i.MX6 Platform TES Electronic Solutions (India) Private Limited has updated Freescale MFG tool for Windows Embedded Compact (7/2013) The Tool is tested on TES Electronic solution’s “MAGIK2 Evaluation Board” And Freescale’s “Saber SD” Evaluation Board www.tes-dst.com Thanks, Misbah

The attached document describes how to calculate ESAI Mclk Bitclk LRclk for imx6 sabreauto board based on 3.10.17 linux kernel.

This is the procedure and patch to set up Ubuntu 14.04 64bit Linux Host PC and building i.MX6x L3.0.35_4.1.0. It has been tested to build GNOME profile and with FSL Standard MM Codec for i.MX6Q SDP with LVDS display. Add suggestion about compiling "gstreamer-plugins-good" when selecting "Min profile" rootfs.  Please refer to the Note session. A) Basic Requirement: Set up the Linux Host PC using ubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso Make sure the previous LTIB installation and the /opt/freescale have been removed B) Installed the needed packages to the Linux Host PC      Needed packages: $ sudo apt-get install gettext libgtk2.0-dev rpm bison m4 libfreetype6-dev $ sudo apt-get install libdbus-glib-1-dev liborbit2-dev intltool $ sudo apt-get install ccache ncurses-dev zlib1g zlib1g-dev gcc g++ libtool $ sudo apt-get install uuid-dev liblzo2-dev $ sudo apt-get install tcl dpkg $ sudo apt-get install asciidoc texlive-latex-base dblatex xutils-dev $ sudo apt-get install texlive texinfo $ sudo apt-get install lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0 $ sudo apt-get install libc6-dev-i386 $ sudo apt-get install u-boot-tools $ sudo apt-get install scrollkeeper $ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/librt.so   /usr/lib/librt.so      Useful tools: $ sudo apt-get install gparted $ sudo apt-get install nfs-common nfs-kernel-server $ sudo apt-get install git-core git-doc git-email git-gui gitk $ sudo apt-get install meld atftpd      Note: this operation "$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/librt.so /usr/lib/librt.so" is used to fix rpm-fs build issue; which is taking reference from: LTIB - Strange problem building IMX6 Linux BSP from fresh on Ubuntu 13.10 C) Unpack and install the LTIB source package and assume done on the home directory: $ cd ~ $ tar -zxvf L3.0.35_4.1.0_130816_source. tar.gz $ ./L3.0.35_4.1.0_130816_source/install D) Apply the patch to make L3.0.35_4.1.0 could be installed and compiled on Ubuntu 14.04 64bit OS $ cd ~/ltib $ git apply 0001_make_L3.0.35_4.1.0_compile_on_Ubuntu_14.04_64bit_OS What the patch is doing: a) The patch modifies the following files: bin/Ltibutils.pm dist/lfs-5.1/base_libs/base_libs.spec dist/lfs-5.1/m4/m4.spec dist/lfs-5.1/ncurses/ncurses.spec dist/lfs-5.1/openssl/openssl.spec dist/lfs-5.1/xorg-server/xorg-server.spec b) Add the following files to the pkgs directory: pkgs/m4-1.4.16-1383761043.patch pkgs/m4-1.4.16-1383761043.patch.md5 pkgs/openssl-1.0.1c-1398677566.patch pkgs/openssl-1.0.1c-1398677566.patch.md5 pkgs/xorg-server-1.6.1-1398785267.patch pkgs/xorg-server-1.6.1-1398785267.patch.md5 E) Then, it is ready to proceed the rest of the LTIB env setup process: $ cd ~/ltib $ ./ltib -m config $ ./ltib F) about the patch: LTIB script warning when running with Perl v5.18.2 associated change: bin/Ltibutils.pm description: It prints out the following warning when doing package unpack, the patch is used to remove the warning. defined(@array) is deprecated at bin/Ltibutils.pm line 259         (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?) busybox compilation issue: associated change: dist/lfs-5.1/base_libs/base_libs.spec reference: Re: LTIB on Ubuntu 13.04 m4 compilation issue: associated change: dist/lfs-5.1/m4/m4.spec pkgs/m4-1.4.16-1383761043.patch pkgs/m4-1.4.16-1383761043.patch.md5 reference: http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/sys-devel/m4/files/m4-1.4.16-no-gets.patch alsa-utils compilation issue: associated change: dist/lfs-5.1/ncurses/ncurses.spec reference: Re: Android and LTIB build error in ubuntu 12.04 x86_64 openssl compilation issue due to Perl v5.18.2: associated change: dist/lfs-5.1/openssl/openssl.spec pkgs/openssl-1.0.1c-1398677566.patch pkgs/openssl-1.0.1c-1398677566.patch.md5 description: the build fails in pod2man while trying to generate man pages from the pod files reference: https://forums.freebsd.org/viewtopic.php?&t=41478 https://gist.github.com/martensms/10107481 xorg-server configuration fail: associated change: dist/lfs-5.1/xorg-server/xorg-server.spec pkgs/xorg-server-1.6.1-1398785267.patch pkgs/xorg-server-1.6.1-1398785267.patch.md5 description: When doing configuration, it stops at saying tslib not found.  It could be fixed by adding -dl when doing tslib test in configuration stage. NOTE: A) During the LTIB setup and compilation, these warnings were pop up.  Just ignore them and it seems okay. B) the dist/lfs-5.1/gst-plugins-good.spec is used to configurate/compile/install the "gstreamer-plugins-good" package.  It set up the environment variables pointing to libcairo but disable it when doing configuration. Thus, libcairo is actually not being used.           In Gnome profile, cario has been selected by default.  Thus, it does not experience the problem when compiling "gstreamer-plugins-good". However, in Min profile, if you select gstreamer-plugins-good to compile and install to your rootfs but without selecting cario as well, you will experience the error described in this thread: Re: gst-fsl-plugins build failed Thus, you could follow the solution provide in the Re: gst-fsl-plugins build failed or simply select cairo in your package list.          

The MMPF0100 and MMPF0200 are the newest in the family of Freescale Analog PMICs supporting the i.MX6 processor.  These devices are economical, quick turn programmable system power management solutions with fully programmable voltages, sequencing, and timings.  Why risk anything else?  These are optimized and validated to work seamlessly with our i.MX6 processors. 

This is a How-To documentation for OpenCL on i.MX6 using LTIB, there are all necessary steps and sample code to create,  build and run a HelloWorld application.

Overview This document provides some solutions for building i.MX 6 series LTIB on an Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr host. A Virtualbox virtual machine was created for the Ubuntu computer which is used for the build host.   Linux Target Image Builder (LTIB) is a perl script used for creating images (Bootloader u-boot, Linux uImage, and root file system). The build example shown here was for the i.MX 6Q and minimum root file system.   Software Versions L3.0.35_4.1.0_ER_SOURCE_BSP L3.0.35 : Linux version 3.0.35 4.1.0 :  Freescale release number ER_SOURCE_BSP : Engineering Release source Board support package File download URL:  L3.0.35_4.1.0_130816_source.tar.gz.

Here are my experiences for compiling Qt5.3.0-beta1 on Yocto. Special thanks to Martin Jansa, the maintainer of the meta-qt5 layer and his help on this. My original procedure was based on this tutorial: Building Qt5 using yocto on Wandboard - Wandboard Wiki Reason: Qt5.3 contains a nice new plugin that allows the use of gstreamer output for textures without the CPU intensive step of copying them (Gerrit Code Review). This allows to play even full HD videos and apply all the power of Qt5 (e.g. shaders) to them. Steps: Setup your repo: repo init -u https://github.com/Freescale/fsl-community-bsp-platform -b master-next; repo sync Download meta-qt5 branch: cd sources; git clone -b jansa/qt5-5.3.0-beta1 https://github.com/meta-qt5/meta-qt5.git Checkout a specific revision: cd meta-qt5; git checkout 92be18a3a14deed9d38b8fc6e89f09ba4d730597 Apply the following patch (maybe later no longer needed): diff --git a/recipes-qt/qt5/qt5.inc b/recipes-qt/qt5/qt5.inc index dfc1c76..a2f9a73 100644 --- a/recipes-qt/qt5/qt5.inc +++ b/recipes-qt/qt5/qt5.inc @@ -54,6 +54,7 @@ FILES_${PN}-tools-dbg = " \ " FILES_${PN}-plugins-dbg = " \      ${OE_QMAKE_PATH_PLUGINS}/*/.debug/* \ +    ${OE_QMAKE_PATH_PLUGINS}/*/*/.debug/* \ " # extra packages @@ -98,6 +99,7 @@ FILES_${PN}-tools = " \ " FILES_${PN}-plugins = " \      ${OE_QMAKE_PATH_PLUGINS}/*/*${SOLIBSDEV} \ +    ${OE_QMAKE_PATH_PLUGINS}/*/*/*${SOLIBSDEV} \ " FILES_${PN}-mkspecs = "\      ${OE_QMAKE_PATH_ARCHDATA}/mkspecs \ Define your machine: export MACHINE=xxx (replace with your board) Setup build environment: cd .. ; . setup-environment build edit your local layer conf ("conf/bblayers.conf") and add the following two lines:   ${BSPDIR}/sources/meta-openembedded/meta-ruby \   ${BSPDIR}/sources/meta-qt5 \ edit your local.conf and add the following lines: DISTRO_FEATURES_remove = "x11 wayland" IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " \     firmware-imx-vpu-imx6q \     firmware-imx-vpu-imx6d \ " IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " \     cpufrequtils \     nano \     packagegroup-fsl-gstreamer \     packagegroup-fsl-tools-testapps \     packagegroup-fsl-tools-benchmark \     gstreamer \     gst-plugins-base-app \     gst-plugins-base \     gst-plugins-good \     gst-plugins-good-rtsp \     gst-plugins-good-udp \     gst-plugins-good-rtpmanager \     gst-plugins-good-rtp \     gst-plugins-good-video4linux2 \     qtbase-fonts \     qtbase-plugins \     qtbase-tools \     qtbase-examples \     qtdeclarative \     qtdeclarative-plugins \     qtdeclarative-tools \     qtdeclarative-examples \     qtdeclarative-qmlplugins \     qtmultimedia \     qtmultimedia-plugins \     qtmultimedia-examples \     qtmultimedia-qmlplugins \     qtsvg \     qtsvg-plugins \     qtsensors \     qtimageformats-plugins \     qtsystems \     qtsystems-tools \     qtsystems-examples \     qtsystems-qmlplugins \     qtscript \     qt3d \     qt3d-examples \     qt3d-qmlplugins \     qt3d-tools \     qtwebkit \     qtwebkit-examples-examples \     qtwebkit-qmlplugins \     cinematicexperience \     " PACKAGECONFIG_append_pn-qtmultimedia = " gstreamer010" QT5_VERSION = "5.2.1+5.3.0-beta1+git%" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtbase-native = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtbase = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtdeclarative = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtjsbackend = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtjsbackend-native = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtgraphicaleffects = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtimageformats = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtmultimedia = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtquick1 = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtquickcontrols = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtsensors = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtserialport = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtscript = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtsvg = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qttools-native = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtwebkit = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtwebkit-examples = "${QT5_VERSION}" PREFERRED_VERSION_qtxmlpatterns = "${QT5_VERSION}" build an image: bitbake core-image-minimal This image will build QT5.3 for framebuffer.

Patch to enable SSI_ASRC_P2P capture function for SebreSD board Modified based on https://community.freescale.com/docs/DOC-95342#comment-9739 You can use 'arecord -Dhw:0,1 -c 2 -f S16_LE -r 44100 | aplay' to test this patch. Currently only supports 16bit output width, for 24bit, the voice of the captured data will be much bigger in one channel than the other for this patch.

When working with IPU applications, sometimes image format converter is needed to check images generated by IPU that are not readable by PC (e.g. RGB565, common i.MX framebuffer format -> png or jpg) or generate a RGB picture from an encoded file to be read by IPU (e.g. png -> RGB565 framebuffer). There are some useful tools on Linux and some also available on Windows that can perform these conversions. I listed 5 tools with some usage examples below. IMAGEMAGICK // Display a 800x600 rgb image display -size 800x600 -depth 8 rgb:output.rgb // Show information of output.rgb identify -size 1296x972 -depth 8 output.rgb // Convert a 640x480 grayscale raw rgb file to png convert -size 640x480 -depth 8 imagefile.rgb image.png // To list all available color formats identify -list format For more information about Imagemagick and its format support. access: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/formats.php FFMPEG // List available formats for ffmpeg ffmpeg -pix_fmts // Convert raw rgb565 image to png ffmpeg -vcodec rawvideo -f rawvideo -pix_fmt rgb565 -s 1024x768 -i freescale_1024x768.raw -f image2 -vcodec png screen.png // Convert png to raw rgb565 ffmpeg -vcodec png -i image.png -vcodec rawvideo -f rawvideo -pix_fmt rgb565 image.raw // Convert a 720x480 NV12 (YUV 420 semi-planar) image to png ffmpeg -s 720x480 -pix_fmt nv12 -i image-nv12.yuv -f image2 -pix_fmt rgb24 image-png.png // Convert a 640x480 uyvy422 image to png ffmpeg -s 640x480 -pix_fmt uyvy422 -i image-uyvy422.yuv -f image2 -pix_fmt rgb24 image-uyvy422.png MENCODER http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/encoding-guide.html TRANSCODING http://www.transcoding.org/cgi-bin/transcode?Examples GRAPHICSMAGICK http://www.graphicsmagick.org/

Very often, customers need to disable the framebuffer auto blank. There are several ways to do so. Modify the code in drivers/tty/vt/vt.c or remove the  “CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE” from the kernel configuration. All these work, but inconvenient. Review the code following: static int vesa_blank_mode; /* 0:none 1:suspendV 2:suspendH 3:powerdown */ static int vesa_off_interval; static int blankinterval = 10*60; core_param(consoleblank, blankinterval, int, 0444); The blank is controlled by blankinterval, which can be set with the name consoleblank. And the consoleblank is a "core_param". core_param in linux can be recognized by kernel. Also can be passed to kernel command line from uboot with bootargs. we could add this to the bootargs that the framebuffer will not go blank: consoleblank=0 Example(verified with imx6 L3.0.35_4.1.0_130816): setenv bootargs_mmc 'setenv bootargs ${bootargs} root=/dev/mmcblk1p1 rootfstype=ext4 rootwait video=mxcfb0:dev=hdmi,1920x1080M@60,if=RGB24,bpp=32 fbmem=28M consoleblank=0'

When I am planing to develop some features in Uboot, I found it has lots limitation without interrupt. For example, to have camera preview in Uboot. Polling in Uboot results non sync when camera preview and hard to keep code simple and clean. I decided to take some time survey interrupt and it is time to share it.   This patch (shown as attachment) is to enable the interrupt. It also has the sample code to set GPIO interrupt as well. The test below showed Uboot can get the interrupt when pressing Volume up key. Special thanks for Anson Huang for patient discussing with me on this.   irqinfo is the command to enable Volume up interrupt. The log do_irq is print when Uboot got the interrupt.   Original Attachment has been moved to: 0001-Enable-interrupt-on-i.MX6Q-SabreSD.patch.zip
