Hi Xuhui Li,

I agree to Weidong Sun that this question is out of support range. But you can add a new machine to yocto. By adding new machine, you can modify the kernel, dtb and filesystem by this method, but creating custom u-boot is out of scope (in my point of view due to my lack of knowledge). I think you can find an answer from the link below

Hello xuhui,

     After you set up yocto environment according to linux BSP document, you should compile u-boot, linux kernel, if compiling is successful, you can find u-boot & kernel source code in your building path.

     As for how to add a new layer to yocto, you will have to read document of yocto, and do it by yourself,  the question is out of our support range !

Regards,

Weidong
