Docker install and setting
If you don't have docker in your system, then you can follow the below steps to install docker and run it first.
To install Docker Engine on your platform
- Please refer to Docker Installation Guide for details
To pull ubuntu 16.04 image from Docker Hub
$ docker pull advrisc/u16.04-imx8lbv1
$ docker run --name imx6LBV8200 -it advrisc/u16.04-imx8lbv1 /bin/bash
To copy BSP from local filesystem to the container
$ docker cp ${BSP_PACK} imx6LBV8200:/home/adv/
To create container
$ docker run --privileged -it --name ${CONTAINER_NAME} -v ${WORKSPACE}:/home/adv/adv-release-bsp -v /dev:/dev advrisc/u16.04-imx8lbv1 /bin/bash
Get BSP
- You have two methods to put BSP into container created above
Download BSP From GitHub
- The following example shows how to download the Advantech Yocto BSP from GitHub.
- For this example, a directory called adv-release-bsp is created for the project.
- Refer to IoTGateway/BSP/Linux/iMX6/OS Support List new , Official version "imx6LBV8040" is taken as an example :
TBD
- If you want to get latest bsp
$ repo init -u git://github.com/ADVANTECH-Corp/adv-arm-yocto-bsp.git -b imx-linux-sumo -m imx-4.14.98-2.0.0_ga.xml $ repo sync
Copy BSP tarball to Container
TBD
Downloads tarball
TBD
Introducing BSP
- The BSP is based on Yocto Project with Freescale enhanced features for i.MX6, plus specific target board features from Advantech Inc..
- The Advantech Yocto Project BSP Release directory contains a "sources" directory, which contains the recipes used to build,
one or more build directories, and a set of scripts used to set up the environment.
- The recipes used to build the project come from both the community and Advantech. The Yocto Project layers are downloaded
to the sources directory. This sets up the recipes that are used to build the project.
Naming Rule
- The tarball/prebuilt image name is consist of the model name followed by "LB" or "LI" plus version number and released date.
- For example, BSP file name: imx6LBV8040_2017-01-16.tgz
- which , "LB" is acronym of Linux BSP,
- "V8040" stands for Version 8.040
- For example, Yocto image name: 7421A1LIV8040_DualPlus_2017-01-16.img.gz
- which "7421A1" stands for ROM-7421 A1
- "LI" is acronym for prebuilt Linux Image,
- "DualPlus" means this image is fit for Dual Plus Core/Quad Plus Core.
- For example, Yocto image name: 3420A1LIV8050_DualQuad_2017-01-17.img.gz
- which "3420A1" stands for ROM-3420 A1
- "LI" is acronym for prebuilt Linux Image,
- "DualQuad" means this image is fit for Dual Core/Quad Core.
- For example, Yocto image name: U220A1LIV8080_DualLiteSolo_2017-02-08.img.gz
- which "U220A1" stands for UBC-220 A1
- "LI" is acronym for prebuilt Linux Image,
- "DualLiteSolo" means this image is fit for Dual Lite Core/Solo Core.

- Perform the following command in terminal console
$ source ${TOOLCHAIN}/environment-setup-aarch64-poky-linux
Building & updating u-boot manually
- The cross compiling environment has been set up. (ref. Setting up cross compiling environment)
Copy BSP tarball to Container
Refer to Copy_BSP_tarball_to_Container , copy u-boot tarball to ${WORKSPACE} and back to container change owner & unpack tarball
$ sudo chown adv:adv imx6LBV8210_2017-02-20_uboot-imx6.tgz $ tar zxvf imx6LBV8210_2017-02-20_uboot-imx6.tgz
Config u-boot
$make ${MX6PROC}${BOARD}${BOARD_REV}_${MEM_SIZE}_defconfig
eg.
$make mx6qrsb4411a1_1G_defconfig
Build u-boot
$make -j4
Replace u-boot
- Perform the following command to transfer to exist boot-up SD card
$ dd if=u-boot_crc.bin.crc of=${SD_DEVICE} bs=512 seek=2 conv=fsync $ dd if=u-boot_crc.bin of=${SD_DEVICE} bs=512 seek=3 conv=fsync
- Perform the following command to transfer to on-board flash
$ dd if=u-boot_crc.bin.crc of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=512 seek=2 conv=fsync $ dd if=u-boot-crc.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=512 seek=3 conv=fsync
Building & updating kernel/modules/dtb manually
- The cross compiling environment has been set up. (ref. Setting up cross compiling environment)
Copy BSP tarball to Container
Refer to Copy_BSP_tarball_to_Container , copy kernel tarball to ${WORKSPACE} and back to container
change owner & unpack tarball
$ sudo chown adv:adv imx6LBV8210_2017-02-20_linux-imx6.tgz $ tar zxvf imx6LBV8210_2017-02-20_linux-imx6.tgz
Config kernel
- Configure linux kernel
$cd linux-imx6 $make distclean $make imx_v7_adv_defconfig $make menuconfig
If you get error ,when you "make imx_v7_adv_defconfig" , you need to insatall "libncurses*"
$apt-get install libncurses*
Build kernel
- Start building linux kernel
$ make -j4 zImage
- The kernel image file, zImage, is located in the directory "./arch/arm/boot/".
- Start building kernel modules
$ make -j4 modules
- Copy all modules to a temporary rootfs directory, "~/temp/rootfs"
$ make modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=~/temp/rootfs
- Building device tree blob
$ make -j4 ${IMX6PROC}-${BOARD}-${BOARD_REV}.dtb
- The device tree blob, ${IMX6PROC}-${BOARD}-${BOARD_REV}.dtb, is located in the directory "./arch/arm/boot/dts/".
Replace kernel & dts
- Replace kernel
- copy zImage to SDcard or emmc
- Replace dtb file
- copy dtb file to SDcard or emmc
Improve boot speed
- Bootloader
1.bootdelay time
- We can cancel the bootdelay time by setting bootloader environment value.
setenv bootdelay 0 env save reset
2.Disable console
- Disable debug message output can also improve boot speed
Disable kernel message
setenv mmcargs setenv bootargs console=${console},${baudrate} ${smp} root=${mmcroot} ${bootargs} quiet env save reset
Or
- Disable debug port
setenv console env save reset
- Rootfs
1.Use smaller rootfs
- We can speed up boot times by using a smaller rootfs instead of fsl-image-qt5 image
eg. core-image-full-cmdline, core-image-minimal
bitbake core-image-full-cmdline
It's a console-only image with more full-featured Linux system functionality installed.
And replace the original fsl-image-qt5 rootfs.
- Services
1. Using update-rc.d remove ,we can remove unnecessary services.
update-rc.d -f <basename> remove
System Recovery
Please refer to Creating boot-up on-board flash from prebuilt image / sdcard image to create a boot-up SD card and transfer whole system to on-board flash.
Package List
In BSP, list all packages which will be built in the image
bitbake -g fsl-image-qt5 && cat pn-depends.dot | grep -v -e '-native' | grep -v digraph | grep -v -e '-image' \ | awk '{print $1}' | sort | uniq
File:Package List
Show all recipes (include non-installed packages)
bitbake -s
File:Package Version List
You can also check ${BDIR}/tmp/deploy/images/${MC}/fsl-image-qt5-${MC}.manifest
It will show the same content with checking by rpm tool on target board.
On target board, list all packages by rpm tool
