=='''What is the Yocto Project™'''==
The Yocto Project™ is an open source collaboration project that provides templates, tools and methods to help you create custom Linux-based systems for embedded products regardless of the hardware architecture.
Taken directly from the Yocto Project website:

'''Yocto Project™ it's not an embedded Linux distribution – it creates a custom one for you'''

The Yocto Project™ is an umbrella project covering a fairly wide swath of embedded Linux technologies an distributions. For example, the Angstrom Distribution is declared as a Yocto Project Participant

Much of this How-To is extracted from different sources. If you would like to read some of the original articles or resources, please visit them and thank the authors:

* The Yocto project website ( http://www.yoctoproject.org )
* The Yocto project documentation ( http://www.yoctoproject.org/documentation )
* The Openembedded website ( http://www.openembedded.org/ )


=='''Why use the Yocto Project™'''==
Because it's a complete embedded Linux development environment with tools, metadata, and documentation - everything you need. The free tools are easy to get started with, powerful to work with (including emulation environments, debuggers, an Application Toolkit Generator, etc.) and they allow projects to be carried forward over time without causing you to lose optimizations and investments made during the project’s prototype phase. The Yocto Project fosters community adoption of this open source technology allowing its users to focus on their specific product features and development





=='''How to build Poky custom Poky Linux distribution'''==
Yocto will be built on a host machine targeting and igep board. It will use Poky software to generate the custom linux distribution Linux distribution. Before starting with yocto, you need to set up the host machine.



==='''Host Setup'''===
Yocto is expecting the host system to have preinstalled packages. Depending on the type of development, the host system will need more or less packages. On Ubuntu / Debian here is a table depending on the type of development.


{{Message/Information Message|title=TITLE|message=If you don't know what type of development  it suits better to your needs we recommend you to start with Essential type }}

If your build system has the '''oss4-dev''' package installed, you might experience QEMU build failures due to the package installing its own custom /usr/include/linux/soundcard.h on the Debian system. If you run into this situation, either of the following solutions exist:

 sudo apt-get build-dep qemu<br data-attributes="%20/">sudo apt-get remove oss4-dev
==='''Yocto Project Setup'''===
In order to create a custom linux distribution; we will download the yocto project.

 git clone <a href="git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky" rel="nofollow">git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky</a>
Enter poky folder.

 cd poky
Switch to pyro branch.

 git checkout pyro
Download meta-openembedded layer and switch to pyro branch.

 git clone https://github.com/openembedded/meta-openembedded.git -b pyro
Download meta-qt5 layer and switch to pyro branch.

 git clone https://github.com/qt/qt5.git -b pyro
Download meta-isee layer and switch to pyro branch.

 git clone git@git.isee.biz:poky-yocto/meta-isee.git -b pyro
Source the environment using:

 source oe-init-build-env
You should be now inside poky/build folder.

Add all the layers into build/conf/bblayers.conf.

As a final example using this command

 MACHINE=igep0034 DISTRO=isee-release-no-x11 bitbake igep-minimal-image
Produces a minimal rootfs (sysV suite, withuot X11), u-boot, Kernel image and DTB for ISEE AM335x products.

==='''Types of custom Poky Linux Distributions'''===
Meta-isee is the layer that provides you the support to build your own custom poky linux distribution. In fact it provides you a set of predefined images that will build some components, like focusing on building the minimal set of components required to boot an igep board or building more complicated distributions with X support or even build an image with a Sato or LXDE Desktop.

The following table explains the types of images, the description and the approximated size to give you a hint of what you are building.


{{Message/Information Message|title=TITLE|message= <span style="color: #ff0000;">When you are bitbaking an image with X support  you '''MUST''' set DISTRO=distro-name compatible with X environment.</span>}}

=='''How to develop with Yocto Project SDK'''==
In order for developers to use Yocto Project SDK, Yocto Project must be set up, all needed meta-layers downloaded and configured in bblayers.conf. Also target image should be built correctly.



==='''What is Yocto Project SDK'''===
Yocto Project offers a set of tools for developers to create applications (that will run in Yocto created Linux Distributions ) from powerful Host machines. This is also called cross compiling. Yocto Project SDK allows developers to cross compile, debug, and test applications. In fact Yocto Project SDK provides:

<div class="itemizedlist">
* <span class="emphasis">''Cross-Development Toolchain''</span>: This toolchain contains a compiler, debugger, and various miscellaneous tools.
* <span class="emphasis">''Libraries, Headers, and Symbols''</span>: The libraries, headers, and symbols are specific to the image (i.e. they match the image).
* <span class="emphasis">''Environment Setup Script''</span>: This <code class="filename">*.sh</code> file, once run, sets up the cross-development environment by defining variables and preparing for SDK use.

The SDK is installed on any machine and can be used to develop applications, images, and kernels. An SDK can even be used by a QA Engineer or Release Engineer. The fundamental concept is that the machine that has the SDK installed does not have to be associated with the machine that has the Yocto Project installed.

[[File:sdk-environment.png|center|869x429px|border]]

A developer can independently compile and test an object on their machine and then, when the object is ready for integration into an image, they can simply make it available to the machine that has the Yocto Project. Once the object is available, the image can be rebuilt using the Yocto Project to produce the modified image.



==='''Why use Yocto Project SDK'''===
</div>
Normally Target systems specifications are quite restricted, specifically in embedded target systems. It is convenient for the developer, in order to save time, to develop, compile and test their applications on their host platform which is usually a powerful machine. This is the basic of the cross compiling process. Later an emulator is used to test the application.



==='''How to build ISEE Yocto Project SDK'''===
Developers can build ISEE Yocto Project SDK in order to use it at their convenience. First of all a SDK installed will be produced and then developers will user the SDK installer in their Host machines to install all ISEE Yocto Project SDK components.

To produce the SDK installer run this command after sourcing Yocto environment (source oe-init-build-env).

 bitbake -c populate_sdk igep-image-name
It is also posible to build an extensible SDK with

 bitbake -c populate_sdk_ext igep-image-name
The resulting SDK installer script can be found in yocto project build folder ./tmp/deploy/sdk/*.sh

==='''How to use ISEE Yocto Project SDK'''===
In order to use the ISEE Yocto Project SDK first of all the Installer script must be run in the Host machine where it is intended to develop the software:

 ./isee-release-no-x11-glibc-x86_64-igep-basic-image-cortexa9hf-neon-toolchain-2.3.3.sh
Once it is installed the environment must be set up with the source script in


After the environment is set up developers can already compile and debug aplications. It can also be used qemu emulator available in  folder to emulate target applications.
