   1 Create a Tizen Common x86_64 image with Yocto
   2 =============================================
   3
   4 Target: Haswell CPU
   5
   6 # Create your working directory
   7
   8 Create a working directory (for example "~/yocto"):
   9
  10         mkdir ~/yocto
  11         cd ~/yocto
  12
  13 Create a download directory (optional). It will act as a common download
  14 directory amongst projects:
  15
  16         mkdir ~/downloads
  17
  18 # Download sources
  19
  20 Downlaod Poky:
  21
  22         git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
  23
  24 Download Intel layers:
  25
  26         git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-intel
  27
  28 Download openembedded layers:
  29
  30         git clone git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded
  31
  32 Download tizen layer:
  33
  34         git@github.com:eurogiciel-oss/meta-tizen.git
  35
  36 # Configuration
  37
  38 Configure the environment:
  39
  40         cd poky
  41         . ./oe-init-build-env
  42
  43 # Configuration files
  44
  45 ## conf/bblayer.conf
  46
  47 This file contains the list of the layers in which poky has to search
  48 for the recipes.
  49
  50         # LAYER_CONF_VERSION is increased each time build/conf/bblayers.conf
  51         # changes incompatibly
  52         LCONF_VERSION = "6"
  53
  54         BBPATH = "${TOPDIR}"
  55         BBFILES ?= ""
  56
  57         BBLAYERS ?= " \

  73 Most of default values can be kept. The one that needs to be changed is:
  74
  75         MACHINE ?= "qemux86-64:wq
  76         :wq"
  77
  78 Other useful option to set:
  79
  80 Download directory:
  81
  82         DL_DIR ?= "${HOME}/yocto/downloads"
  83
  84 Setting the download directory DL_DIR to a directory shared amongst
  85 projects prevents common data from being downloaded for each project.
  86
  87 Terminal emulator:
  88
  89         OE_TERMINAL = "screen"
  90
  91 The terminal emulator you want to use.
  92
  93 Example of a complete configuration file (without comments):
  94
  95         BB_NUMBER_THREADS ?= "${@oe.utils.cpu_count()}"
  96         PARALLEL_MAKE ?= "-j ${@oe.utils.cpu_count()}"
  97         MACHINE ?= "genericx86-64"
  98         DL_DIR ?= "${HOME}/yocto/downloads"
  99         BB_GENERATE_MIRROR_TARBALLS = "1"
 100         DISTRO ?= "poky"
 101         PACKAGE_CLASSES ?= "package_rpm"
 102         EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES = "debug-tweaks"
 103         USER_CLASSES ?= "buildstats image-mklibs image-prelink"
 104         OE_TERMINAL = "screen"
 105         PATCHRESOLVE = "noop"
 106         BB_DISKMON_DIRS = "\
 107                 STOPTASKS,${TMPDIR},1G,100K \
 108                 STOPTASKS,${DL_DIR},1G,100K \
 109                 STOPTASKS,${SSTATE_DIR},1G,100K \
 110                 ABORT,${TMPDIR},100M,1K \
 111                 ABORT,${DL_DIR},100M,1K \
 112                 ABORT,${SSTATE_DIR},100M,1K"
 113                 PACKAGECONFIG_pn-qemu-native = "sdl"
 114                 ASSUME_PROVIDED += "libsdl-native"
 115         CONF_VERSION = "1"
 116
 117 1) Unfortunately we have to copy some files to the meta directory
 118 #ls -1 classes/
 119     image.bbclass
 120     rootfs_rpm.bbclass
 121 #ls -1 lib/oe/
 122 package_manager.py
 123 smack.py
 124
 125 This should be temporary and will be removed as soon as possible.
 126
 127 # cp classes/* ${POCKY_PATH}/meta/classes/
 128 # cp lib/oe/* ${POCKY_PATH}/lib/oe/
 129
 130 # Build the Tizen Common image
 131
 132         bitbake tizen-common-core-image-minimal
 133
 134 Two useful options are:
 135
 136 'k' "Continue as much as possible after an error. While the target that
 137     failed and anything depending on it cannot be built, as much as
 138     possible will be built before stopping."
 139
 140 'v' "Output more log message data to the terminal."
 141
 142 Which gives:
 143         1) bitbake -kv tizen-common-core-image-minimal
 144         2) runqemu qemux86-64 tizen-common-core-image-minimal bootparams="S"
 145         3) /etc/smack/init_attr
 146 The generate image can be found in tmp/deploy/images/qemux86-64/
