Hi Wayne,
Looking at the output you posted, lines 84/85 seem to be the root of the
problem:
In file included from mxc_ipu_hl_lib.c:45:
mxc_ipu_hl_lib.h:96:23: error: linux/ipu.h: No such file or directory
mxc_ipu_hl_lib.h:97:25: error: linux/mxcfb.h: No such file or directory
You need to make sure that these headers are available in your kernel
source tree, and that they get installed into the
rootfs/usr/src/linux/include area. I'm assuming that they're something
that should be publicly exported? (check in the original BSP if you can).
Alternatively, you could access them by adding a -I to rpm/BUILD/linux,
however that's not really a good idea if the using package is userspace
(it should not be groping around the internal kernel headers).

Hi Stuart,
Your advice helped and I have managed to build a kernel using the
kernel source from the SoM BSP. I had to do some tweaking as LTIB
fails the build at imx-lib. This may be outside your remit but I am
wondering if you can over a suggestion on how to fix this problem,
the log is located here, http://pastebin.com/Btb1mN58 lines 84 and 85
don't make any sense to me as I have added them from the Freescale BSP
to my BSP but the build still can't find them.
Thanks
Wayne

Hi Wayne,
I was the main (almost only) developer of LTIB back when I worked
at Freescale. At the time I left, aside from some unpublished
BSPs, the tools were the same. I'm not sure what has happened
since I left (over 2 years ago), but I would say that if their BSP
does what you want, stick with that; if not then Savannah CVS may
be better in terms of getting help (if you are a customer of
Freescale's they may help too).
To help you with this question you really need to send a patch
(diff) showing what you've changed and also the output of any
failure messages.
So far as the ltib kernel config processing goes, here's how it works:
1. First build: use the one in config/platform/_target_/ named in
the choice selected when you run ./ltib -m config (or the one
named in the config/platform/_target_/defconfig if you don't
change anything).
2. Once the kernel has been built, an updated kernel .config file
will be placed in
config/platform/_target_/_kernel_config_name.dev. The reason for
this is that:
* Running the kernel configuration parser can (will) change
the input kernel config file
* You may have selected other options (if you ran: ./ltib -p
kernel --configure
There is some useful documentation on the website:
http://ltib.org (the FAQ) and also in the doc directory in the
LTIB source tree. It's worth scanning that for ideas.
Bottom line; send a patch/actual output and the people on this
list may be able to see what the issue is and help you.

Hi Stuart,
Thanks for the the reply, please bare with me, I'm new to LTIB
and embedded Linux.
I first tried changing the default toolchain, kernel source and
toolchain prefix in LTIB, with the default kernel configuration,
the build failed.
This failure might have something to do with the kernel config,
it would appear that the config that had been used isn't that of
the default config from the kernel source. If I were to 'make
menuconfig' the kernel source the menu that appears has a list of
different options when compared to the kernel menuconfig that
LTIB starts up. I had a look at main.lkc but I don't quite
understand why LTIB is ignoring the default .config for the
kernel and appears to be using some other .config, i.e I'm not
sure which config is being used?
Would I be better dumping the freescale version of LTIB and using
the CVS version, is there any difference except for the supported
platforms?
Thanks
Wayne

Hi Wayne,
Making the changes are easy. Basically you need to edit the
config/platform/_target_/main.lkc file to refer to the
toolchain/kernel you want to use. Make sure to copy also the
correct TOOLCHAIN_FLAGS etc from the existing BSP using those
assets.
The main thing you'll need to do is to test.

Hi,
Is it difficult to integrate kernel source and a tool-chain
into LTIB from another BSP. The reason I ask is that I am
using an i.MX53 based SoM and the build tools are bad and I
really like using LTIB, my exposure coming from using LTIB
with the i.MX53QSB.
I can see from the Freescale provided LTIB that I could
select custom kernel source and a custom toolchain, what are
likely outcomes if I were to change these? Do I need to be
digging deeper and look at modifying other files?
Regards
Wayne
