Device support

All contemporary boards are supported by a single qcom-armv8a machine. Please use it instead of using the per-board configuration file. In order to enable support for the particular device extend the qcom-armv8a.conf file .

Quick build

If you're new to the Yocto Project, you might want to read the document in order to setup your Yocto Project build environment.

From inside poky folder, clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/linux-msm/meta-qcom-extras

and dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/qualcomm-linux/meta-qcom
git clone https://github.com/openembedded/meta-openembedded

Now, from inside poky folder initialize your build folder:

source oe-init-build-env build

The script will cd into the newly created build folder. From within this folder, add all layers:

bitbake-layers add-layer ../meta-openembedded/meta-oe
bitbake-layers add-layer ../meta-qcom
bitbake-layers add-layer ../meta-qcom-extras

Change MACHINE variable into conf/local.conf to:

MACHINE ?= "qcom-armv8a"

Finally, build your images:

bitbake core-image-minimal initramfs-firmware-lenovo-x13s-image
