meta-solidrun

This is a Yocto build layer(version:dunfell) that provides support for SolidRun's RZ/G2LC based platforms.

Currently the following boards and MPUs are supported:

  • Board: RZG2LC HummingBoard RZ/G2LC Kit / MPU: R9A77G044C (RZ/G2LC)
  • Board: RZG2L HummingBoard RZ/G2L Kit / MPU: R9A77G044L (RZ/G2L)
  • Board: RZV2L HummingBoard RZ/V2L Kit / MPU: R9A07G054L (RZ/V2L)

Patches

To contribute to this layer you should email patches to support@solid-run.com. Please send .patch files as email attachments.

Build Instructions

Assume that $WORK is the current working directory. The following instructions require a Poky installation (or equivalent).

Below git configuration is required:

    $ git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
    $ git config --global user.name "Your Name"

Download the Yocto Project Layers (require repo app):

repo init -u https://github.com/SolidRun/meta-solidrun-arm-rzg2lc.git -b dunfell -m meta-solidrun-arm-rzg2lc.xml
repo sync

Download proprietary graphics drivers and/or multimedia codecs from Renesas:

  • RZ MPU Graphics Library for RZ/G2{L,LC,UL} and RZ/V2L v1.1.0
  • RZ MPU Video Codec Library for RZ/G2L and RZ/V2L v1.1.0 (Graphic drivers are required for Wayland, Codecs optional)

After downloading the proprietary packages, please decompress - then put meta-rz-features folder at $WORK.

Optionally a Docker environment can be used for the build:

docker pull crops/poky:ubuntu-20.04
docker run --rm -it -v ${PWD}:/work crops/poky:ubuntu-20.04 --workdir=/work

Initialize a build using the 'oe-init-build-env' script in Poky. e.g.:

TEMPLATECONF=$PWD/meta-solidrun-arm-rzg2lc/docs/template/conf/rzg2lc-solidrun source poky/oe-init-build-env build

Review / Edit default configuration files:

  • conf/bblayers.conf
  • conf/local.conf

Build a target using bitbake:

MACHINE=<board> bitbake <target>
# e.g
MACHINE=rzg2lc-hummingboard bitbake core-image-bsp core-image-weston core-image-qt

Valid boards:

Renesas MPU board
RZ/G2LC rzg2lc-hummingboard
RZ/G2L rzg2l-hummingboard
RZ/V2L rzv2l-hummingboard

Valid targets:

  • firmware-pack: atf + u-boot
  • core-image-bsp: cli image
  • core-image-weston: graphical image
  • core-image-qt: graphical image including qt

After completing the images for the target machine will be available in the output directory 'tmp/deploy/images/<supported board name>'.

Images generated:

  • Image (generic Linux Kernel binary image file)
  • DTB for target machine
  • core-image-<target>-<machine name>.tar.bz2 (rootfs tar+bzip2)
  • core-image-<target>-<machine name>.ext4 (rootfs ext4 format)
  • core-image-<target>-<machine name>.wic (bootable sdcard image)

Build configs

It is possible to change some build configs as below:

  • GPLv3: choose to not allow, or allow, GPLv3 packages

    • Non-GPLv3 (default): not allow GPLv3 license. All recipes that has GPLv3 license will be downgrade to older version that has alternative license (done by meta-gplv2). In this setting customer can ignore the risk of strict license GPLv3 INCOMPATIBLE_LICENSE = "GPLv3 GPLv3+"
    • Allow-GPLv3: allow GPLv3 license. If user is fine with strict copy-left license GPLv3, can use this setting to get newer software version. #INCOMPATIBLE_LICENSE = "GPLv3 GPLv3+"

  • CIP Core: choose the version of CIP Core to build with. CIP Core are software packages that are maintained for long term by CIP community. You can select by changing "CIP_MODE".

    • Buster (default): use as many packages from CIP Core Buster as possible. CIP_MODE = "Buster"
    • Bullseye: use as many packages from CIP Core Bullseye. CIP_MODE = "Bullseye"
    • None CIP Core: not use CIP Core at all, use all default version from Yocto 3.1 Dunfell CIP_MODE = "None" or unset CIP_MODE

  • QT Demo: choose QT5 Demonstration to build with core-image-qt. QT5 Demos are some applications to demonstrate QT5 framework.

    • Unset QT_DEMO (default): all QT5 Demos are not built with core-image-qt. #QT_DEMO = "1"
    • Allow QT_DEMO: all QT5 Demos are built and included in core-image-qt. QT_DEMO = "1"

  • Realtime Linux: choose realtime characteristic of Linux kernel to build with. You can enable this feature by setting the value "1" to IS_RT_BSP variable in local.conf: IS_RT_BSP = "1"
