Poky
|
||
|
|
====
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged
|
||
|
|
build system and development environment. It features support for building
|
||
|
|
customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images
|
||
|
|
featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports
|
||
|
|
cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a
|
||
|
|
standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports
|
||
|
|
is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added
|
||
|
|
in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as
|
||
|
|
BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information
|
||
|
|
e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a
|
||
|
|
reference manual which can be found at:
|
||
|
|
http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions
|
||
|
|
of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with
|
||
|
|
DISTRO = "nodistro") and contains only emulated machine support.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|

Where to Send Patches
|
||
|
|
=====================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As Poky is an integration repository (built using a tool called combo-layer),
|
||
|
|
patches against the various components should be sent to their respective
|
||
|
|
upstreams:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
bitbake:
|
||
|
|
Git repository: http://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/
|
||
|
|
Mailing list: bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
documentation:
|
||
|
|
Git repository: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/yocto-docs/
|
||
|
|
Mailing list: yocto@yoctoproject.org
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
meta-poky, meta-yocto-bsp:
|
||
|
|
Git repository: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-yocto(-bsp)
|
||
|
|
Mailing list: poky@yoctoproject.org
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Everything else should be sent to the OpenEmbedded Core mailing list. If in
|
||
|
|
doubt, check the oe-core git repository for the content you intend to modify.
|
||
|
|
Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current oe-core git
|
||
|
|
repository.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Git repository: http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/
|
||
|
|
Mailing list: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note: The scripts directory should be treated with extra care as it is a mix of
|
||
|
|
oe-core and poky-specific files from meta-poky.
