[yocto] yocto-bsp create question

2014-09-12 Thread Michael Kotson
Hi all,

   We are trying to create a custom BSP based off of valleyisland-64
using the yocto-bsp script.  When we are presented choices for which BSP
to branch from, valleyisland isn't one of the choices.  We have tried
all of the different kernel options presented, but no luck.  I'm pretty
sure we have the layers added correctly, as we can build valleyisland-32
and valleyisland-64 inside of hob with no problems.  Any idea what we
are doing wrong?

 

All the best,

Michael

Nothing that you're doing wrong, it's just that the valleyisland BSPs
are built a little differently from the normal BSPs - instead of a
machine branch, they do a merge of a valleyisland-io branch into another
branch and the yocto-bsp tools aren't set up to do that.  They'd need to
be enhanced to enhanced to handle cases like that.  I'd suggest filing a
an enhancement bug so we can add that capability..

Thanks,

Tom

Hi Tom,
   Thanks for the response.  I filed an enhancement request, but in the 
meantime is there a preferred method to create our own BSP from Valleyisland?

All the best,
Michael

Thanks for filing the request, it's been assigned to me and I'll try to
get to it as soon as I can.

In the meantime, I guess what I'd suggest is that you start by copying
the valleyisland bsp you're interested in and modifying it to suit your
needs.  This is essentially what users had to do before yocto-bsp
existed and is the reason it was created - to take all the cut-and-paste
drudgery out of that exercise.
