This is the Intel Edison image layer for the Intel Edison Development Platform. Here are all the parts needed to build and flash a Yocto image for Intel Edison.
This layer depends on:
URI: git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky tag: yocto-1.7.2
URI: git@github.com:htot/meta-intel-iot-middleware.git branch: daisy-latest and dizzy-uptodate
To build the Windows Cross-compilation toolchain:
URI: git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-mingw branch: daisy
To build the MacOSX Cross-compilation toolchain:
URI: git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-darwin branch: daisy
You will find more details in the README file in this directory
This is a fork of http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-intel-edison/
Currently I am tracking origin/master but I have created three additional branches: dizzy-uptodate, dizzy-latest, dizzy-rt.
- dizzy-uptodate tracks origin/dizzy with 3.10.98 kernel. This branch pulls https://github.com/htot/meta-intel-iot-middleware.git branch dizzy-uptodate with fixes for paho-mqtt relocated and iotkit-comm-js no longer supported.
- dizzy-latest tracks origin/master as much as possible with 3.10.98 kernel. This branch pulls https://github.com/htot/meta-intel-iot-middleware.git branch dizzy-latest with fixes for paho-mqtt relocated and iotkit-comm-js no longer supported + java support removed. This gives mraa 0.9.0, upm 0.4.1 and mosquitto 1.4.
- dizzy-rt same as dizzy-latest but with real time kernel. Switches the kernel to the PREEMPT_RT 3.10.17-rt kernel
- morty experimental branch based on Yocto Morty, vanilla kernel 4.13
- morty-64 experimental branch based on Yocto Morty, vanilla kernel 4.13 (64 bit)
- pyro64 experimental branch based on Yocto Pyro, vanilla kernel 4.13 (64 bit). This version actually builds u-boot with
bitbake -R conf/u-boot.conf lib32-u-boot(wiki to be updated)
You really need to build Yocto Dizzy versions on Ubuntu 14.04.
Yocto Morty / Pyro will build on Ubuntu Artful (17.10). For detailed instructions see the wiki https://github.com/htot/meta-intel-edison/wiki
With Dizzy and Ubuntu 16.10 you will get errors related to makenod etc from pseudo-native. that will prevent the image to build completely. You can do this by creating a container with Ubuntu 14.04, install and configure sshd, create a user for yourself, install the required build environment (may be a bit to much):
sudo apt-get install gawk wget git-core diffstat unzip texinfo gcc-multilib build-essential chrpath socat cpio python python3 libsdl1.2-dev xterm python3

How-to create a container: https://linuxcontainers.org/lxd/getting-started-cli/
1- Prepare your workspace:
mkdir my_Edison_Workspace
2- Get this layer:
git clone git@github.com:htot/meta-intel-edison.git
3- Make things easier with 'make':
ln -s meta-intel-edison/utils/Makefile.mk Makefile
4- Checkout the version you want to use:
cd meta-intel-edison
git checkout dizzy-uptodate
or
git checkout dizzy-latest
or
git checkout dizzy-rt
5- Download all the needed dependencies:
make setup
6- Build Intel Edison Yocto distribution:
Change to the correct directory as instructed by the script.
cd /.../my_Edison_Workspace/test/out/linux64
source poky/oe-init-build-env
bitbake -k edison-image
Alternatively, from the same directory as make setup:
make image
(or make flash, make sdk)
I didn't find a real easy way to clean up with bitbake (i.e. similar to make clean). It most cases that won't be needed anyway. What seems to work for now is:
make clean
rem -rf bbcache/sstate-cache/*
make setup
This will delete everything in out, remove the sstate-cache, but keep all the downloaded packages.
