Freescale meta-freescale announcement of new layer

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2010 bytes --]

Freescale is pleased to announce the meta-freescale layer which unifies i.MX and QorIQ Yocto Project support  into a single

Yocto Project layer supporting both i.MX ARM and QorIQ ARM and PowerPC architectures.  We look forward to hearing your

feedback on how the consolidation of i.MX and QorIQ can improve the Yocto Project experience.  Our goal is to have one

build environment that supports both i.MX and QorIQ machines.



Through 2015 until the end of the year, official releases will continue to be done on the Yocto Project layers for i.MX and

QorIQ used so far (meta-fsl-bsp-release, meta-fsl-arm, and meta-fsl-ppc). For the new meta-freescale layer, releases will

be performed on a monthly basis, adding bugfixes as well as updates from the meta-fsl-arm and meta-fsl-ppc layers.

At the end of the year, when meta-freescale is stable, meta-fsl-arm and meta-fsl-ppc will be deprecated and only

meta-freescale will be used for Freescale releases.



The first beta release of meta-freescale on the branch *transition_beta1* is available now on git.freescale.com [1]. This release gathers

all of meta-fsl-arm and QorIQ SDK 1.7 into one layer, including all git history, and includes the release branch *fido_freescale*

based on the FSL Community BSP 1.8 fido branch [2]. Detailed information about each release is available in the README [3].



The second beta release will be at the end of July and will add support for i.MX 7Dual, i.MX 6UltraLite and i.MX 6QuadPlus,

as well as QorIQ SDK 1.8.



We look forward to feedback from the community to help build a better Yocto Project environment.



Instructions to download the manifest are in the README link below.

Thank you Lauren.  Will FSL SDK 1.8 be integrated into meta-fsl-ppc in 
the same way SDK 1.7 was, or will we only see it in the meta-freescale 
layer?

[Luo Zhenhua]

Bob, 

The QorIQ SDK 1.8 will be integrated in the July release of meta-freescale, the SDK 1.8 integration in meta-fsl-ppc layer is not planned. 

You can get the meta-fsl-ppc layer with SDK 1.8 content from http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/ppc/sdk/meta-fsl-ppc.git/log/?h=daisy.

Zhenhua

"Detailed information about each release is available in the README [3]."

Hi Lauren, did you mean to reference a different README?  The one you 
referenced doesn't have detailed information about each release.

I'm trying to catch up this week, so I want to make sure I have the 
right info.

Hi Lauren and others,

Can you please provide an update on FSL's / NXP's plans to maintain 
repos with the latest patches for QorIQ Power and ARM when working with 
the Yocto/Poky master branches?

I'm aware of three repo locations:

1) meta-fsl-arm and mets-fsl-ppc on yoctoproject.org:  both master 
branches have been updated in the past couple of weeks.  It seems that 
these were not deprecated as planned.

2) meta-freescale on freescale.com.  The fido_freescale_qoriq_sdk_v1.9 
branch looks like it was used to stage SDK1.9, and it also received some 
additional commits beyond the SDK.  However, it hasn't received any 
patches this year.

3) meta-freescale on github.com/Freescale  ( community site ).  This is 
an active repo, but I think it has fallen behind with QorIQ-related 
patches.


Are there other repos where NXP / FSL are posting patches?


Please let us know how the Freescale QorIQ developers plan to use 
particular repos moving forward.  Or in other words, if I'm building 
QorIQ Power and LS1 ARM based Yocto images using master branches on 
yoctoproject.org, which QorIQ repos and branches should I be using & 
patching?

Could we also get an update on when we'll see QorIQ kernel recipes for a 
4.x kernel ( looks like both linux-ls1 and linux-qoriq are still at 3.12)?

Thank you,

Bob

[Luo Zhenhua-B19537] we are working on the transfer from meta-fsl-arm/ppc to meta-freescale currently, the goal is to finish the transfer for Yocto 2.2 release.

I'm aware of three repo locations:

1) meta-fsl-arm and mets-fsl-ppc on yoctoproject.org:  both master branches have been updated in the past couple of weeks.  It seems that these were not deprecated as planned.

Are there other repos where NXP / FSL are posting patches?
[Luo Zhenhua-B19537] meta-freescale replaced meta-fsl-arn/ppc since QorIQ SDK 1.9, that's why you can see fido_freescale_qoriq_sdk_v1.9 branch in git.freescale.com. The QorIQ SDK release will be upstreamed to both meta-fsl-arm/ppc(git.yoctoproject.org) and meta-freescale(github.com) until meta-freescale replaces meta-fsl-arm/ppc completely.

Please let us know how the Freescale QorIQ developers plan to use particular repos moving forward.  Or in other words, if I'm building QorIQ Power and LS1 ARM based Yocto images using master branches on yoctoproject.org, which QorIQ repos and branches should I be using & patching?
[Luo Zhenhua-B19537] QorIQ SDK will use meta-freescale layer in future, so the suggestions is to use this layer for your changes.

Could we also get an update on when we'll see QorIQ kernel recipes for a 4.x kernel ( looks like both linux-ls1 and linux-qoriq are still at 3.12)?
[Luo Zhenhua-B19537] The kernel will be upgraded to 4.1 in QorIQ SDK 2.0 which will be released in Q2/2016. You will see the new kernel in community meta-fsl-arm/ppc and meta-freescale layer in the early of Q3/2016.


Thank you,

Bob








The first beta release of meta-freescale on the branch *transition_beta1* is available now on git.freescale.com [1]. This release gathers

all of meta-fsl-arm and QorIQ SDK 1.7 into one layer, including all git history, and includes the release branch *fido_freescale*

based on the FSL Community BSP 1.8 fido branch [2]. Detailed information about each release is available in the README [3].



The second beta release will be at the end of July and will add support for i.MX 7Dual, i.MX 6UltraLite and i.MX 6QuadPlus,

as well as QorIQ SDK 1.8.



We look forward to feedback from the community to help build a better Yocto Project environment.



Instructions to download the manifest are in the README link below.

Hi Zhenhau,

Thank you for the reply.   Where will the meta-freescale layer / repo be 
located?  I would like to see one created on yoctoproject.org with a 
master branch.   Currently the meta-freescale layer on freescale.com 
doesn't have a master branch.

I ask that either you or someone else inside NXP sends out an 
announcement when this switch officially takes place.

Bob

For now, it is available on Github with a master branch. Patches for
it are handled using meta-freescale as usual.

In not so distant future we intend to move include the repository on
Yocto Project git server however it is not yet ready for it.

Thank you for the reply Otavio.  I had been using the GitHub 
meta-freescale, but I think it has fallen behind.

As an example, meta-fsl-ppc has commit 2e9b383ccaf4 that patches 
qoriq_build_64bit_kernel.bbclass and u-boot-qoriq_2015.01.bb. However, 
neither this commit nor the patched-up files can be found in Github's 
meta-freescale.   Therefore, I went back to using meta-fsl-ppc for 
building Power QorIQ images.

Please let me know if you'll be updating meta-freescale to bring it up 
to date for ppc QorIQ, or let me know if I'm mistaken about this.

Thanks again,

Bob

Bob, 

The fixes in meta-fsl-ppc will be ported to meta-freescale, 4 patches ported from meta-fsl-ppc were submitted for meta-freescale layer. 

http://patchwork.openembedded.org/project/meta-freescale/list/?submitter=1911

Hi Zhenhau,

It looks like the qemu-qoriq patches in github's meta-freescale repo are 
causing some problems for me.

If I do a "bitbake qemu" from a clean build environment, it subsequently 
fails during the compile task of gobjects-introspection.

During the compiling of gobjects-introspection, the 
g-ir-scanner-qemuwrapper script is run which fails when it tries to 
execute "PSEUDO_UNLOAD=1 qemu-ppc64 ...".

"""

/build/yocto/build_meta_freescale/tmp/work/ppc64e5500-poky-linux/gobject-introspection/1.46.0-r0/build/g-ir-scanner-qemuwrapper: 
line 6: qemu-ppc64: command not found

"""

Maybe you already have a patch for this?  Let me know if you require 
further information, and I'll start a new thread.   I'll also look into 
creating the patch.


Thanks

Bob

This is a side effect of GObjects Introspection support which is being
included for 2.1.

There are two things which need to be investigated:

 - if this is a bug on OE-Core, or
 - if something on meta-freescale needs change to allow the new
infrastructure to be used

Re: Freescale meta-freescale announcement of new layer

[Zhenhua Luo]

After investigation, this is an issue in oe-core. The reason is that the generated qemu binary name of ppc64 targets is qemu-ppc instead of qemu-ppc64, the gobject-introspection uses qemu-ppc64, so the build issue appeared. 

There are two solutions for the issue, one is to update qemu-native recipe to make sure qemu binary name is qemu-ppc64, the other one is to update gobject-introspection to use qemu-ppc when ppc64 target is built. May I know about your comments on which one is better?

The fix needs to be generic and fixed in OE-Core, in this case.
Provide some pointers where did you find the root cause and  I can
take a look about which routed I would take.

[Ting Liu]

ppc64 is not in the default list of QEMU_TARGETS in poky/meta/recipes-devtools/qemu/qemu.inc
you can add this in conf/local.conf to enable it:
QEMU_TARGETS_append_pn-qemu-native = " ppc64"

It seems the list needs to be extended than.

Thank you.  That moves the gobject-introspection compile task a little 
further, but now qemu-ppc64 segfaults for me during the execution of the 
g-ir-scanner-qemuwrapper script.

I'm curious as to whether one of you were able to compile 
gobject-introspection with ppc64.

I'll send more info later.

Re: Freescale meta-freescale announcement of new layer

[Ahsan, Noor]

Hello,

I am still seeing that meta-fsl-arm and meta-fsl-ppc layers are still actively used and development. What is the plan moving forward to you meta-freescale layer for development or we will develop separately and then merge the change in meta-freescale later?

meta-freescale will be the one used in future but this won't happen
for YP 2.1; the timeframe seems to indicate YP 2.2 or 2.3.

Thanks for the update Otavio. I hope we are able to do it in 2.2.
