Changes with respect to Geniux Gatesgarth 21.06

  • Fix .wic image creation in Geniux Gatesgarth 21.06.
  • Updated meta-intel, meta-raspberrypi, and meta-gnss-sdr layers.
  • GNSS-SDR updated to v0.0.15
  • Update FFTW to v3.3.9 and force to compile it without NEON, since it was causing segfaults.
  • Update libiio to v0.23.
  • Updated libad9361-iio and iio-oscilloscope recipes.
  • Update glog to v0.5.0.
  • Customized splash screen.
  • Added a script for easier maintenance of the manifest.

How to build images and the SDK

With Docker already installed on your system, build the SDK and images for your preferred machine:

$ git clone https://github.com/carlesfernandez/yocto-geniux
$ cd yocto-geniux
$ ./geniux-builder.sh gatesgarth 21.08 zedboard-zynq7

The generated yocto-geniux image also provides an interactive mode that allows users to make changes, experiment, fine-tune, and generate their own custom images and SDKs according to their specific requirements in a virtualized environment. Please check the README.md file of that repository for instructions.
