Please use the attached file to replace sources/poky/bitbake/lib/bb/utils.py, which have already applied the patch https://patchwork.openembedded.org/patch/122361/.

Please add the following in sources/meta-freescale/recipes-fsl/images/fsl-image-core.bb

GLIBC_GENERATE_LOCALES = "zh_CN.UTF-8 en_GB.UTF-8 en_US.UTF-8"
IMAGE_LINGUAS = "zh-cn"
LOCALE_UTF8_ONLY="1"

The regenerate rootfs filesystem with "bitbake fsl-image-core".

Please refer to the following on the target board.
root@t2080rdb:~# locale -a
C
zh_CN
POSIX
root@t2080rdb:~# export LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8
root@t2080rdb:~# export LC_ALL=zh_CN.UTF-8
root@t2080rdb:~# locale

Thanks,
