What You Will Learn
  • Interact with and customize the bootloader for a board
  • Use the Yocto Project in the embedded Linux development process
  • Familiarize yourself with and customize the bootloader for a board
  • Explore and work with toolchain components such as binutils, gcc, glibc (C libraries), and kernel headers
  • Interact with a root filesystem for your project and also with meta layers
  • Discover more about real-time layer, security, virtualization, CGL, and LSB
  • Identify the Yocto Project components such as Eclipse ADT plug-ins, and Toaster
In Detail

This book offers readers an idea of what embedded Linux software and hardware architecture looks like, cross-compiling, and also presents information about the bootloader and how it can be built for a specific board. This book will go through Linux kernel features and source code, present information on how to build a kernel source, modules, and the Linux root filesystem. Youll be given an overview of the available Yocto Project components, how to set up Yocto Project Eclipse IDE, and how to use tools such as Wic and Swabber that are still under development. It will present the meta-realtime layer and the newly created meta-cgl layer, its purpose, and how it can add value to poky.

About the Author

Alexandru Vaduva is an embedded Linux software engineer whose main focus lies in the field of open source software. He has an inquiring mind and also believes that actions speak louder than words. He is a strong supporter of the idea that there is no need to reinvent the wheel, but there is always room for improvement. He has knowledge of C, Yocto, Linux, Bash, and Python, but he is also open to trying new things and testing new technologies.

Alexandru Vaduva has been a reviewer of the book Embedded Linux Development with Yocto Project , Packt Publishing , which is a great asset to the Yocto Project community.

About the Reviewer

Peter Ducai has 15 years of experience in the IT industry, including the fields of programming and OS administration. Currently, he works at HP as an automation engineer.

Alex Tereschenko is an avid Maker. He believes that computers can do a lot of good when they are interfaced with real-world objects (as opposed to just crunching data in a dusty corner). This drives him in his projects and is also the reason why embedded systems and the Internet of Things are the topics he enjoys the most.

Preface

With regard to the Linux environment today, most of the topics explained in this book are already available and are covered in a fair bit of detail, This book also covers a large variety of information and help in creating many viewpoints. Of course, there are some very good books written on various subjects also presented in this book, and here, you will find references to them. The scope of this book, however, is not to present this information all over again, but instead to make a parallel between the traditional methods of interaction with the embedded development process and the methods used by the Yocto Project.

This book also presents the various challenges that you might encounter in embedded Linux and suggests solutions for them. Although this book is intended for developers who are pretty confident of their basic Yocto and Linux skills and are trying to improve them, I am confident that that those of you who have no real experience in this area, could also find some useful information here.

This book has been built around various big subjects, which you will encounter in your embedded Linux journey. Besides this, technical information and a number of exercises are also given to you to ensure that as much information as possible is passed on to you. At the end of this book, you should have a clear picture of the Linux ecosystem.

What this book covers

, Introduction , tries to offer a picture of how an embedded Linux software and hardware architecture looks. It also presents you information on the benefits of Linux and Yocto along with examples. It explains the architecture of the Yocto Project and how it is integrated inside the Linux environment.

, Cross-compiling , offers you the definition of a toolchain, its components, and the way in which it can be obtained. After this, information on the Poky repository is given to you and a comparison is made with the components.

, Bootloaders , gives you information on a boot sequence, U-Boot bootloader, and how it can be built for a specific board. After this, it gives access to the U-Boot recipe from Poky and shows how it is used.

, Linux Kernel , explains the features of the Linux kernel and source code. It gives you information on how to build a kernel source and modules and then moves on to explain the recipes of the Yocto kernel and presents how the same things happen there after that the kernel is booted.

, The Linux Root Filesystem , gives you information on the organization of root file system directories and device drivers. It explains the various filesystems, BusyBox, and what a minimal filesystem should contain. It will show you how BusyBox is compiled inside and outside the Yocto Project and how a root filesystem is obtained using Poky.
