16 The BSP Layer provides machine configurations.
17 Everything in this layer is specific to the machine for which
18 you are building the image or the SDK.
19 A common structure or form is defined for BSP layers.
20 You can learn more about this structure in the
21 <a class="link" href="../bsp-guide/index.html" target="_self">Yocto Project Board Support Package (BSP) Developer's Guide</a>.

25 In order for a BSP layer to be considered compliant with the
26 Yocto Project, it must meet some structural requirements.

31 The BSP Layer's configuration directory contains
32 configuration files for the machine
33 (<code class="filename">conf/machine/<em class="replaceable"><code>machine</code></em>.conf</code>) and,
34 of course, the layer (<code class="filename">conf/layer.conf</code>).
35 </p>
36<p>
37 The remainder of the layer is dedicated to specific recipes
38 by function: <code class="filename">recipes-bsp</code>,
39 <code class="filename">recipes-core</code>,
40 <code class="filename">recipes-graphics</code>, and
41 <code class="filename">recipes-kernel</code>.
42 Metadata can exist for multiple formfactors, graphics
43 support systems, and so forth.

47 While the figure shows several <code class="filename">recipes-*</code>
48 directories, not all these directories appear in all
49 BSP layers.
