This is a simple step by step guide on how to change the Android boot animation which is shown when the system is loading.   Requirements   - Android L5.1.1_2.1.0 BSP. The basics of the boot animation may also apply to older and upcoming releases but L5.1.1_2.1.0 BSP was used for this document. File names, settings or paths may be changed in older or newer releases.   - i.MX6Q Sabre SD Board or any other i.MX board supported by the BSP release, for testing.   - 7-Zip. This is a free compression tool and has the necessary settings for preparing the boot animation file. It is important that the boot animation file is in Zip format with no compression, otherwise the file won’t be read and the animation will not be shown. Zip tools integrated on some Operating Systems may not always allow for these configurations. You may download this utility from the link below: http://www.7-zip.org/   - Android adb tool. This tool is part of the Android SDK. You may download the SDK as part of Android Studio or the SDK as Stand Alone on the following link. Only the adb is required to follow up this document. http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/index.html   Understanding the boot animation format.   The animations used by Android when booting are actually a series of images in either jpg or png format in a zip file with no compression (storage mode) and a text file (desc.txt) with the specified resolution, framerate and loops to be played by the animation. Each folder containing a part of the animation must contain the images numbered from 000 onwards.  This file is always called bootanimation.zip An example of a boot animarion can be found attached to this document.   The contents of the desc.txt file on the attached example are as follow: 480 292 30 p 1 0 part0 p 0 0 part1 (please note that there should be an empty line at the end of the document).   Line 1: Screen resolution followed by FPS (Frames per Second) of the animation.   Lines 3-5: The p serves to describe that the line contains a part of the animation; followed by the number of times the section of the animation will play (with zero being an infinite loop); followed by a delay in frames before moving to the next line. Finally, the folder containing the files of that specific part of the animation (this is why most animations use “part” for the folder name).   Line 6: A blank line. This is important as without it the animation may not run as it will consider the description file incomplete. There are some animations available around the web as well as some free tools or apps that allow you to create your own animations. You may find an example animation attached to this document which you may use as reference.   It is important that no other files are included on the bootanimation.zip file. This includes the thumbnails created automatically by Windows. Please delete them from your fule before loading it to the board.   Please note that the animation may be repeated in a loop if it’s shorter than the actual time it takes for the system to load. However, the animation will play complete regardless of the loading time so very long boot animations may give the appearance of a longer booting time.   The location of the boot animation file is given on the bootanimation_main.cpp file, which is located on the following path: <MYANDROID_DIR>/frameworks/base/cmds/bootanimation/bootanimation_main.cpp   There are two definitions that give the file location. We’re focusing on the default image for this document (unencrypted). #define SYSTEM_BOOTANIMATION_FILE "/system/media/bootanimation.zip" #define SYSTEM_ENCRYPTED_BOOTANIMATION_FILE "/system/media/bootanimation-encrypted.zip"   Note: These definitions may be different from those in third party BSPs. It is common to find BSPs using the "/data/local/” folder as USER_BOOTANIMATION. This is not supported by default on NXP’s BSP.   Loading the new boot animation file.   - Building a User Debug image Android protects certain folders to avoid tampering, so in order to change the boot animation we will use adb in order to access the file system. However, it is necessary to use a image with root access so we will be using a user debug image.   In order to compile as user debug use the following lunch command after following the instructions in the Android User's Guide: $ lunch sabresd_6dq-userdebug   After configuring the build for user debug you can then build using make. (This process may take several hours)   - Enabling USB Debug mode Your board should be running android and then be connected to the computer using the USB OTG port. In order for adb to work you have to enable USB debugging by opening Settings and scrolling down to the “About” option clicking the "About" option 7 times.   - Using adb to load the new boot animation We’ll connect to the SABRE board using the Android SDK for Windows adb tool available at the path below: android-sdk-windows\platform-tools   Open a command promt in windows and go to the adb path. Then start the adb server with the following command: $ adb start-server   This will initialize the adb daemon. In order to connect to the device permission must be granted. A pop up will appear asking whether to trust or not the computer host. Since we will be changing the system partition we must initialize adb as root: $ adb root   This will restart the adb daemon in root mode. You will need to grant access from your device. You may see the list of connected with: $ adb devices   If you wish to see the contents of the filesystem you may enter the shell with the following command: $ adb shell   However, we will be using the pull/push commands from adb in order to change the bootanimation.   If you wish to download the current bootanimation for backup you may do so with the following command: $ adb pull /system/media/bootanimation.zip C:\ This will download the bootanimation.zip file to C:   Since the system partition is read only you will need to remount with the adb prior to pushing the replacing boot animarion $ adb remount $ adb root push C:\BootAni\bootanimation.zip /system/media   After this you may reboot your board and you should see the new boot animation. Original Attachment has been moved to: bootanimation.zip

Important: If you have any questions or would like to report any issues with the DDR tools or supporting documents please create a support ticket in the i.MX community. Please note that any private messages or direct emails are not monitored and will not receive a response. i.MX 6/7 Series Family DDR Tools Overview This page contains the latest releases for the i.MX 6/7 series DDR Tools. The tools described on this page cover the following i.MX 6/7 series SoCs: i.MX 6DQP (Dual/Quad Plus) i.MX 6DQ (Dual/Quad) i.MX 6DL/S (Dual Lite/Solo) i.MX 6SoloX i.MX 6SL i.MX 6SLL i.MX 6UL i.MX 6ULL/ULZ i.MX 7D/S i.MX 7ULP The purpose of the i.MX 6/7 series DDR Tools is to enable users to generate and test a custom DRAM initialization based on their device configuration (density, number of chip selects, etc.) and board layout (data bus bit swizzling, etc.). This process equips the user to then proceed with the bring-up of a boot loader and an OS. Once the OS is brought up, it is recommended to run an OS-based memory test (like Linux memtester) to further verify and test the DDR memory interface. The i.MX 6/7 series DDR Tools consist of: DDR Register Programming Aid (RPA) DDR Stress test _________________________________________________________ i.MX 6/7 Series DDR Stress Test The i.MX 6/7 Series DDR stress test tool is a Windows-based software tool that is used as a mechanism to verify that the DDR initialization is operational prior for use in u-boot and OS bring-up. The DDR Stress Test tool can be found here: i.MX 6/7 DDR Stress Test Tool Note that the DDR Stress test tool supports all of the above i.MX SoCs, however, some of the supported i.MX SoCs named in the tool support multiple i.MX SoCs as follows: MX6DQ – when selected, this supports both i.MX 6DQ and i.MX 6DQP (Plus) MX6DL – when selected, this supports both i.MX 6DL and i.MX 6S (i.MX 6DLS family) MX6ULL – when selected, this supports both i.MX 6ULL and i.MX6 ULZ MX7D – when selected, this supports both i.MX 7D and i.MX 7S _____________________________________________________________________________ i.MX 6/7 Series DDR Register Programming Aid (RPA) The i.MX 6/7 series DDR RPA (or simply RPA) is an Excel spreadsheet tool used to develop DDR initialization for a user’s specific DDR configuration (DDR device type, density, etc.).

Download the CST(code signing tool) from the below mentioned link https://www.nxp.com/webapp/sps/download/preDownload.jsp?render=true 1. Generating a PKI tree The Code Signing Tools package contains an OpenSSL based key generation script under keys/ directory. The hab4_pki_tree.sh script is able to generate a PKI tree containing up to 4 Super Root Keys (SRK) as well as their subordinated IMG and CSF keys. $ ./hab4_pki_tree.sh ... Do you want to use an existing CA key (y/n)?: n Do you want to use Elliptic Curve Cryptography (y/n)?: n Enter key length in bits for PKI tree: 2048 Enter PKI tree duration (years): 5 How many Super Root Keys should be generated? 4 Do you want the SRK certificates to have the CA flag set? (y/n)?: y 2. Generating a SRK Table and SRK Hash The next step is to generated the SRK Table and its respective SRK Table Hash from the SRK public key certificates created in one of the steps above. The srktool can be used for generating the SRK Table and its respective SRK Table Hash. - Generating SRK Table and SRK Hash in Linux 64-bit machines: $ ../linux64/bin/srktool -h 4 -t SRK_1_2_3_4_table.bin -e \ SRK_1_2_3_4_fuse.bin -d sha256 -c \ SRK1_sha256_2048_65537_v3_ca_crt.pem,\ SRK2_sha256_2048_65537_v3_ca_crt.pem,\ SRK3_sha256_2048_65537_v3_ca_crt.pem,\ SRK4_sha256_2048_65537_v3_ca_crt.pem The SRK_1_2_3_4_table.bin and SRK_1_2_3_4_fuse.bin files can be used in further steps as explained in HAB guides available under doc/imx/habv4/guides/ directory. 3. step-by-step procedure on how to sign and securely boot a bootloader image on i.MX8M Nano devices 3.1 Enabling the secure boot support in U-Boot clone the u-boot from the git link https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/uboot-imx Enable the secure boot support in u-boot - Defconfig: CONFIG_SECURE_BOOT=y CONFIG_IMX_HAB=y from 2020.04 u-boot Build images $ make imx8mn_evk_defconfig $ make Output images $(UBOOT_SRC)/u-boot-nodtb.bin $(UBOOT_SRC)/spl/u-boot-spl.bin $(UBOOT_SRC)/arch/arm/dts/fsl-imx8mm-evk.dtb‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ 3.2 ARM Trusted Firmware Get the ATF from the below mentioned source link https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/imx-atf Build images $ make PLAT=imx8mn bl31 Output images $(ATF_SRC)/build/imx8mn/release/bl31.bin‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ 3.3 Get DDR FW images $ wget https://www.nxp.com/lgfiles/NMG/MAD/YOCTO/firmware-imx-8.0.bin $ chmod 777 firmware-imx-8.0.bin $ ./firmware-imx-8.0.bin Accept the LICENSE AGREEMENT $ cd firmware-imx-8.0.bin‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍/firmware/ddr/synopsys‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ Output images $(DDRFW_SRC)/lpddr4_* 3.4 Get IMX-MKIMAGE source https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/imx-mkimage Below mentioned are the steps to generate bootloder using mkimage Gather necessary images SPL and U-boot images - u-boot-nodtb.bin - u-boot-spl.bin - fsl-imx8mm-evk.dtb‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ATF image - bl31.bin DDR firmware images - lpddr4_pmu_train_1d_dmem.bin - lpddr4_pmu_train_1d_imem.bin - lpddr4_pmu_train_2d_dmem.bin - lpddr4_pmu_train_2d_imem.bin Copy these files to imx-mkimage/iMX8M directory 3.5 Build i.MX8MN boot image flash.bin $ make SOC=iMX8MN flash_evk ========= OFFSET dump ========= Loader IMAGE: header_image_off 0x0 dcd_off 0x0 image_off 0x40 csf_off 0x24a00 spl hab block: 0x911fc0 0x0 0x24a00 Second Loader IMAGE: sld_header_off 0x58000 sld_csf_off 0x59020 sld hab block: 0x401fcdc0 0x58000 0x1020 $ make SOC=iMX8MN print_fit_hab ./print_fit_hab.sh 0x60000 evk.dtb 0x40200000 0x5B000 0xC3AB0 0x402C3AB0 0x11EAB0 0x78F0 0x960000 0x1263A0 0xA1B0 0xBE000000 0x130550 0x10 3.6 Creating the CSF description file The build log provided by imx-mkimage can be used to define the "Authenticate Data" parameter in CSF. - SPL "Authenticate Data" addresses in flash.bin build log: spl hab block: 0x911fc0 0x0 0x24a00 - "Authenticate Data" command in csf_spl.txt file: Blocks = 0x911fc0 0x0 0x24a00 "flash.bin" - FIT image "Authenticate Data" addresses in flash.bin build log: sld hab block: 0x401fcdc0 0x57c00 0x1020 - FIT image "Authenticate Data" addresses in print_fit_hab build log: 0x40200000 0x5B000 0xC3AB0 0x402C3AB0 0x11EAB0 0x78F0 0x960000 0x1263A0 0xA1B0 0xBE000000 0x130550 0x10 - "Authenticate Data" command in csf_fit.txt file: Blocks = 0x401fcdc0 0x57c00 0x1020 "flash.bin", \ 0x40200000 0x5B000 0xC3AB0 "flash.bin", \ 0x402C3AB0 0x11EAB0 0x78F0 "flash.bin", \ 0x960000 0x1263A0 0xA1B0 "flash.bin", \ 0xBE000000 0x130550 0x10 "flash.bin"   3.7 Avoiding Kernel crash in closed devices - Add Unlock MID command in csf_spl.txt: [Unlock] Engine = CAAM Features = MID 3.8 Signing the flash.bin binary The CST tool is used for singing the flash.bin image and generating the CSF binary. Users should input the CSF description file created in the step above and receive a CSF binary, which contains the CSF commands, SRK table, signatures and certificates. - Create SPL CSF binary file: $ ./cst -i csf_spl.txt -o csf_spl.bin - Create FIT CSF binary file: $ ./cst -i csf_fit.txt -o csf_fit.bin 3.8 Assembling the CSF in flash.bin binary ------------------------------------------- The CSF binaries generated in the step above have to be inserted into the flash.bin image. The CSF offsets can be obtained from the flash.bin build log: - SPL CSF offset: csf_off 0x24a00 - FIT CSF offset: sld_csf_off 0x59020 The signed flash.bin image can be then assembled: - Create a flash.bin copy: $ cp flash.bin signed_flash.bin - Insert csf_spl.bin in signed_flash.bin at 0x24a00 offset: $ dd if=csf_spl.bin of=signed_flash.bin seek=$((0x24a00)) bs=1 conv=notrunc - Insert csf_fit.bin in signed_flash.bin at 0x59020 offset: $ dd if=csf_fit.bin of=signed_flash.bin seek=$((0x59020)) bs=1 conv=notrunc - Flash signed flash.bin image: $ sudo dd if=signed_flash.bin of=/dev/sd<x> bs=1K seek=33 && sync 3.9 Verifying HAB events ------------------------ The next step is to verify that the signatures included in flash.bin image is successfully processed without errors. HAB generates events when processing the commands if it encounters issues. Prior to closing the device users should ensure no HAB events were found, as the example below: - Verify HAB events: => hab_status Secure boot disabled HAB Configuration: 0xf0, HAB State: 0x66 3.10 Programming SRK Hash ------------------------- The U-Boot fuse tool can be used for programming eFuses on i.MX SoCs. - Dump SRK Hash fuses values in host machine: $ hexdump -e '/4 "0x"' -e '/4 "%X""\n"' SRK_1_2_3_4_fuse.bin 0x20593752 0x6ACE6962 0x26E0D06C 0xFC600661 0x1240E88F 0x1209F144 0x831C8117 0x1190FD4D - Program SRK_HASH[255:0] fuses on i.MX8MN devices: => fuse prog 6 0 0x20593752 => fuse prog 6 1 0x6ACE6962 => fuse prog 6 2 0x26E0D06C => fuse prog 6 3 0xFC600661 => fuse prog 7 0 0x1240E88F => fuse prog 7 1 0x1209F144 => fuse prog 7 2 0x831C8117 => fuse prog 7 3 0x1190FD4D 3.10 Completely secure the device ---------------------------------- Additional fuses can be programmed for completely secure the device, more details about these fuses and their possible impact can be found at AN4581[1]. - Program SRK_LOCK: => fuse prog 0 0 0x200 - Program DIR_BT_DIS: => fuse prog 1 3 0x8000000 - Program SJC_DISABLE: => fuse prog 1 3 0x200000 - JTAG_SMODE: => fuse prog 1 3 0xC00000

adv7180 is the 8 bits parallel CSI interface TVin to iMX8QXP validation board. Its weaving mode de-interlace can be supported on both iMX8QXP B0 and C0 chips, but blending mode de-interlace can only work on iMX8QXP C0 chips.   ISL79987 is the 4 virtual channel TVin chip which can input 4 CVBS cameras to iMX8QXP with MIPI CSI2 inteface, it can only work with iMX8QXP C0 chips. The iMX8QXP B0 chips have MIPI CSI2 virtual channel errata.   To test the capture to file: $ /unit_tests/V4L2/mx8_v4l2_cap_drm.out -cam 1 -num 300 -fmt YUYV -of   To test the preview on screen: $ killall weston $ /unit_tests/V4L2/mx8_v4l2_cap_drm.out -cam 1 -fmt RGBP -num 30000   Note: 1. For weaving mode de-interlace, when the ISI is doing de-interlace, it can't do CSC at the same time, so preview will get color issue, because the real output video is always YUYV format. 2. For blending mode de-interlace, it must use ISI0, so for ISL79987, only one camera can use blending mode, the other three cameras are still using weaving mode. The preview color is OK for such use case. 3. The patch is for L4.19.35 BSP.     2019-11-14 update: Add the test application "mx8_v4l2_cap_drm.tar.gz" to support YUYV render to display. Test command to render 4 weaving mode cameras:    ./mx8_v4l2_cap_drm.out -cam 0xF -fmt YUYV -num 30000     2020-04-29 update: Add "0006-isl7998x-fix-the-mipi_bps-overwrite-issue-from-set_f.patch", it fixed the issue that MIPI bps information in isl7998x_data->format.reserved[0] had been overwritten by isl7998x_set_fmt().   2021-06-11 update: Added the patches based on L5.4.70_2.3.0 GA BSP.

There are two optionsou 1. Remove all source code after building: You can indicate bitbake to remove all source code after a build adding this line INHERIT += "rm_work" our to your conf/local.conf file. Of course, when baking another image, ALL source code has to be fetched again and it can take a lot of time, specially on machines with low connections to the Internet. The smallest image you can build is core-image-minimal, containing the minimal set of packages to board a particular machine. The largest is fsl-image-gui (in fact, there is one bigger 'fsl-image-gui-sdk' used for developing purposes inside the target). Between these two, there are a lot of images you can choose. You can even create your own image using hob. In case you do not want to build anything, there are some pre-built images on this site, just download the sdcard file and flash it to an SD card. 2. Select only those  IMAGE_FSTYPES you need. There is a variable named IMAGE_FSTYPES  which indicates the output formats you want for the resulting root file system images, by default is has this value: IMAGE_FSTYPES ?= "tar.bz2 ext3 sdcard" and it is located on /sources/meta-fsl-arm/conf/machine/include/imx-base.inc machine's header file. If you want to change it, place this variable on the build/conf/local.conf file. In case you have NFS mounting, remove the 'sdcard' (and either 'ext3' or 'tar.bz2') string, resulting in IMAGE_FSTYPES = "tar.bz2"

There are two format system image(ext4): raw and sparse. The raw image is  larger, you can mount it to ext4 directly(mount -t ext4 system.img system). The sparse image is supported lp5.0, it is a bit smaller. The below part will take IMX7D SDB board as example. You can change the setting according your platform hardware.   1 generate sparse image   In Lollipop 5.0 and 5.1, both raw image and sparse image will be generated by default. sparse system image is located in: out/target/product/sabresd_7d/system_sparse.img raw system image is located in:out/target/product/sabresd_7d/system.img Below are the steps used in android build system to generate system.img build out sparse image(-s means the building system image is sparse)           make_ext4fs -s -T -1 -S out/target/product/sabresd_7d/root/file_contexts -l 374476800 -a system           out/target/product/sabresd_7d/obj/PACKAGING/systemimage_intermediates/system.img out/target/product/sabresd_7d/system transform sparse image to raw image           simg2img out/target/product/sabresd_7d/system_sparse.img out/target/product/sabresd_7d/system.img   2 burn sparse image to sd/emmc      There are two ways to program the sparse image into android boot storage Transform the sparse image into raw image in host Linux PC. And use the commands dd commands to program the raw image into the boot storage.

** If you cannot access the www.youtube.com you may watch the Wi-Fi Display Sink Demo in here: ** ********      http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XNzczMzQ2MTc2.html             ******** We already have the strong i.MX 6 to support the Android kitkat now. So we also develop the WiFi Display Sink in it. With Wi-FI Display technology we can cast the screen and audio to another one via Wi-Fi P2p. It's also named the Miracast. Freescale extends Android by offering a Wi-Fi Display Sink feature. The Wi-Fi hardware module used for this feature are the Realtek RTL8821AS , RTL8723AS and AR6233 SDIO Cards. But the design of this feature allows porting to any Wi-Fi hardware module. Using the Freescale Wi-Fi Display Sink API and the demonstration application, users can easily develop their own Sink Application. This feature has been verified using several of the most popular Android phones and tablets. Our Wi-Fi Display has the following highlight feature: Low latency Support UIBC (When Source device uses Freescale Android maddev_kk4.4.3-2.0.0) Rapid recovery from network congestion Compatibility to different vendor Wi-Fi chips and Wi-Fi Display devices From the demo video we can cast the stopwatch and measure the latency by it. Here are the high quality video shots and we can calculate the real latency which less than 200ms!      For the WiFi Display Spec the orange ones in below figure were achieved in our WiFi Display.

Question: How is mx6 PMIC_ON_REQ under SW control? mx6 PMIC_ON_REQ is hooked up to the PFUZE100's PWRON and Linux and our 3.0.35bsp is used. Mx6 SW control is to drive the PMIC_ON_REQ pin low.  It appears from the documentation that this pin can be controlled by either another imx6 pin OR through SW control. The issue is that the reference manual is not clear on how to do this. While doing an SR search (SR 1-877711457), it does appear the PMIC_ON_REQ is controlled by SW. Answer: In latest RM version, Figure 60-3. Chip on/off state flow diagram and Table 60-3. Power mode transitions in IMX6DQRM.pdf show two ways to make PMIC_ON_REQ go low. I'm sure in latest BSP SW method had been included. It turns out the SNVS module on the mx6s/dl is different from the mx6q/d which is again different from the mx6slx. The bottom line is that the requirements for the SNVS functionality came primarily from the Android market so many of the Linux use cases are not supported. SW control of the PMIC_ON_REQ pin is an example of this. This means that you are correct, there only 2 ways to get PMIC_ON_REQ to power up for the mx6q/d 1 -  a low on the ON/OFF pin greater than the debounce time (750ms) 2 - a wake-up/tamper event. For the mx6s/dl, there are 3 ways to get PMIC_ON_REQ to power up 1 - power-on-reset on the VSNVS  (i.e first applying VSNVS) 2 -  a low on the ON/OFF pin greater than the debounce time (750ms) 3 - a wake-up/tamper event. Note, in my case, where there is an external input that actually wakes up the system, turns on the PMIC and brings up the mx6 there is only 1 way to get PMIC_ON_REQ to go back high 1 - a low on the ON/OFF pin greater than the debounce time (750ms) As it turns out, when the VSNVS_HP section is powered (i.e VDDHIGH is applied), it gates off the wake-up timer.

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.

Recently many customers faced the issue about connecting the git.freesacle .com failed when they built old bsp version like 4.1.15 or 3.14.52,  when the customer repo init according to the yocto user guide, they get the error message like ： repo init -u git://git.freescale.com/imx/fsl-arm-yocto-bsp.git -b imx-4.1-krogoth manifests:  escale.com[0: 192.88.156.202]: errno=Connection refused  fatal: cannot obtain manifest git://git.freescale.com/imx/fsl-arm-yocto-bsp.git ///// git clone git://git.freescale.com:9418/imx/fsl-arm-yocto-bsp.git -b imx-4.1.15-1.0.0_ga Cloning into 'fsl-arm-yocto-bsp'... fatal: unable to connect to git.freescale.com: git.freescale.com[0: 192.88.156.202]: errno=Connection refused the reason is that the old bsp source code was moved to "https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx", customer needs to change "git://git.freescale.com/imx"  to "https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx", for new repo init commands, try to use the commands like “repo init -u https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/fsl-arm-yocto-bsp -b <branch> [-m <manifest>]” for example: 4.1.15_1.0.0: repo init -u https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/fsl-arm-yocto-bsp -b imx-4.1.15-1.0.0_ga 4.1.15_2.0.0: repo init -u https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/fsl-arm-yocto-bsp -b imx-4.1-krogoth -m imx-4.1.15-2.0.0.xml 4.1.15_2.1.1: repo init -u https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/fsl-arm-yocto-bsp -b imx-4.1-krogoth -m imx-4.1.15-2.1.1.xml then you can "repo sync" and "bitbake", but some customers still has the connection error on building firmware-imx package, the error message like : ERROR: firmware-imx-1_5.4-r0 do_fetch: Fetcher failure: Fetch command failed with exit code 128, output: Cloning into bare repository '/opt/yocto/fsl-release-bsp/downloads//git2/git.freescale.com.imx.imx-firmware.git'... fatal: unable to connect to git.freescale.com: git.freescale.com[0: 192.88.156.202]: errno=Connection refused ERROR: firmware-imx-1_5.4-r0 do_fetch: Function failed: Fetcher failure for URL: 'git://git.freescale.com/imx/imx-firmware.git;branch=master;destsuffix=/opt/yocto/fsl-release-bsp/fsl_build_x11/tmp/work/cortexa9hf-neon-mx6qdl-poky-linux-gnueabi/firmware-imx/1_5.4-r0/firmware-imx-5.4/git'.
