OTA Solutions Integration

mender.io

Sample integration to meta-mender-community has been submitted at https://github.com/mendersoftware/meta-mender-community/pull/253

Download the source:

# mkdir mender-amlogic
# cd mender-amlogic
# repo init \
           -u https://github.com/superna9999/meta-mender-community \
           -m meta-mender-amlogic/scripts/manifest-amlogic.xml \
           -b meta-mender-amlogic
# repo sync
# cd sources/meta-mender-community
# git fetch https://github.com/superna9999/meta-mender-community meta-mender-amlogic
# git checkout FETCH_HEAD
# cd ../..

Setup environment

$ . setup-environment amlogic

Build

$ bitbake core-image-base

Test & issues reports are welcome in meta-meson #124 issue !

Foundries Linux microPlatform (LmP)

A BSP layer exists at https://github.com/superna9999/meta-lmp-meson

Tested boards:

• libretech-cc (SDCard)
• khadas-vim3 (SDCard)
• khadas-vim3l (SDCard)

Probably other boards supported by Mainline U-Boot & meta-meson should work fine.

Adding possibility to target eMMC instead of SDCard is missing.

Probable work needed:

• Boards based on A113D (amlogic-s400), has no SDCard, only eMMC or USB
• Boards based on S805X (libretech-ac, p241), has no SDCard, but USB and optionnaly eMMC, and already has mainline U-Boot on the SPI flash

Build

Download the source:

$ mkdir lmp-meson
$ cd lmp-meson
$ repo init -u https://github.com/foundriesio/lmp-manifest
$ repo sync

Setup environment

$ MACHINE=libretech-cc source setup-environment

Enable meta-meson & meta-lmp-meson layers instead on meta-lmp-bsp

$ git clone https://github.com/superna9999/meta-meson -b hardknott ../layers/meta-meson
$ git clone https://github.com/superna9999/meta-lmp-meson -b hardknott ../layers/meta-lmp-meson
$ sed -i '/meta-lmp-bsp/d' conf/bblayers-bsp.inc
$ echo 'BSPLAYERS += " ${OEROOT}/layers/meta-meson"' >> conf/bblayers-bsp.inc
$ echo 'BSPLAYERS += " ${OEROOT}/layers/meta-lmp-meson"' >> conf/bblayers-bsp.inc

Build

$ bitbake lmp-base-console-image
