Introduction and installation
|
|
|
|
|
=============================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This tool provides an easy mechanism to setup bitbake based
|
|
|
|
|
projects.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The OpenEmbedded tooling support starts at step 2 with bitbake. The
|
|
|
|
|
downloading of sources and then configuration has to be done by
|
|
|
|
|
hand. Usually, this is explained in a README. Instead kas is using a
|
|
|
|
|
project configuration file and does the download and configuration
|
|
|
|
|
phase.

|
|
- clone and checkout bitbake layers
|
|
|
|
|
- create default bitbake settings (machine, arch, ...)
|
|
|
|
|
- launch minimal build environment, reducing risk of host contamination
|
|
|
|
|
- initiate bitbake build process
|
