132SYNOPSIS
133 yocto-bsp create <bsp-name> <karch> [-o <DIRNAME> | --outdir <DIRNAME>]
134 [-i <JSON PROPERTY FILE> | --infile <JSON PROPERTY_FILE>]
135 [-c | --codedump] [-s | --skip-git-check]
136
137DESCRIPTION
138 This command creates a Yocto BSP based on the specified
139 parameters. The new BSP will be a new Yocto BSP layer contained
140 by default within the top-level directory specified as
141 'meta-bsp-name'. The -o option can be used to place the BSP layer
142 in a directory with a different name and location.
143
144 The value of the 'karch' parameter determines the set of files
145 that will be generated for the BSP, along with the specific set of
146 'properties' that will be used to fill out the BSP-specific
147 portions of the BSP. The possible values for the 'karch' parameter
148 can be listed via 'yocto-bsp list karch'.
149
150 The BSP-specific properties that define the values that will be
151 used to generate a particular BSP can be specified on the
152 command-line using the -i option and supplying a JSON object
153 consisting of the set of name:value pairs needed by the BSP.
154
155 If the -i option is not used, the user will be interactively
156 prompted for each of the required property values, which will then
157 be used as values for BSP generation.
158
159 The set of properties available for a given architecture can be
160 listed using the 'yocto-bsp list' command.
161
162 Specifying -c causes the Python code generated and executed to
163 create the BSP to be dumped to the 'bspgen.out' file in the
164 current directory, and is useful for debugging.
165
166 NOTE: Once created, you should add your new layer to your
167 bblayers.conf file in order for it to be subsequently seen and
168 modified by the yocto-kernel tool.
169
170 For example, assuming your poky repo is at /path/to/poky, your new
171 BSP layer is at /path/to/poky/meta-mybsp, and your build directory
172 is /path/to/build:
173
174 $ gedit /path/to/build/conf/bblayers.conf
175
176 BBLAYERS ?= " \\
177 /path/to/poky/meta \\

221DESCRIPTION
222 This command enumerates the complete set of possible values for a
223 specified option or property needed by the BSP creation process.
224
225 The first form enumerates all the possible values that exist and
226 can be specified for the 'karch' parameter to the 'yocto bsp
227 create' command. Example output for the 'list karch' command:
228
229 $ yocto-bsp list karch
230 Architectures available:
231 arm
232 powerpc
233 i386
234 mips
235 mips64
236 x86_64
237 qemu
238
239 The second form enumerates all the possible properties that exist
240 and must have values specified for them in the 'yocto bsp create'
241 command for the given 'karch'. This command is mainly meant to
242 allow the development user interface alternatives to the default
243 text-based prompting interface. If the -o option is specified,
244 the list of properties, in addition to being displayed, will be
245 written to the specified file as a JSON object. In this case, the
246 object will consist of the set of name:value pairs corresponding
247 to the (possibly nested) dictionary of properties defined by the
248 input statements used by the BSP. Some example output for the
249 'list --properties' command:
250
251 $ yocto-bsp list arm --properties
252 "touchscreen" : {
253 "msg" : Does your BSP have a touchscreen? (y/N)
254 "default" : n
255 "type" : boolean
256 }
257 "uboot_loadaddress" : {
258 "msg" : Please specify a value for UBOOT_LOADADDRESS.
259 "default" : 0x80008000
260 "type" : edit
261 "prio" : 40
262 }
263 "kernel_choice" : {
264 "prio" : 10
265 "default" : linux-yocto_3.2
266 "depends-on" : use_default_kernel
267 "depends-on-val" : n
268 "msg" : Please choose the kernel to use in this BSP =>
269 "type" : choicelist
270 "gen" : bsp.kernel.kernels
271 }
272 "if kernel_choice == "linux-yocto_3.0":" : {
273 "base_kbranch_linux_yocto_3_0" : {
274 "prio" : 20
275 "default" : yocto/standard
276 "depends-on" : new_kbranch_linux_yocto_3_0
277 "depends-on-val" : y
278 "msg" : Please choose a machine branch to base this BSP on =>
279 "type" : choicelist
280 "gen" : bsp.kernel.all_branches
281 }
282 .
283 .
284 .
285
286 Each entry in the output consists of the name of the input element
287 e.g. "touchscreen", followed by the properties defined for that
288 element enclosed in braces. This information should provide
289 sufficient information to create a complete user interface with.
290 Two features of the scheme provide for conditional input. First,
291 if a Python "if" statement appears in place of an input element
292 name, the set of enclosed input elements apply and should be
293 presented to the user only if the 'if' statement evaluates to
294 true. The test in the if statement will always reference another
295 input element in the list, which means that the element being
296 tested should be presented to the user before the elements
297 enclosed by the if block. Secondly, in a similar way, some
298 elements contain "depends-on" and depends-on-val" tags, which mean
299 that the affected input element should only be presented to the
300 user if the element it depends on has already been presented to
301 the user and the user has selected the specified value for that
302 element.
303
304 The third form enumerates all the possible values that exist and
305 can be specified for any of the enumerable properties of the given
306 'karch' in the 'yocto bsp create' command. If the -o option is
307 specified, the list of values for the given property, in addition
308 to being displayed, will be written to the specified file as a
309 JSON object. In this case, the object will consist of the set of
310 name:value pairs corresponding to the array of property values
311 associated with the property.
312
313 $ yocto-bsp list i386 --property xserver_choice
314 ["xserver_vesa", "VESA xserver support"]
315 ["xserver_i915", "i915 xserver support"]

330 ["yocto/standard/routerstationpro", "yocto/standard/routerstationpro"]
331
332 The third form as well is meant mainly for developers of
333 alternative interfaces - it allows the developer to fetch the
334 possible values for a given input element on-demand. This
335 on-demand capability is especially valuable for elements that
336 require relatively expensive remote operations to fulfill, such as
337 the example that returns the set of branches available in a remote
338 git tree above.

864DESCRIPTION
865 This command creates a generic Yocto layer based on the specified
866 parameters. The new layer will be a new Yocto layer contained by
867 default within the top-level directory specified as
868 'meta-layer-name'. The -o option can be used to place the layer

870
871 If layer_priority is specified, a simple layer will be created
872 using the given layer priority, and the user will not be prompted
873 for further input.
874
875 The layer-specific properties that define the values that will be
876 used to generate the layer can be specified on the command-line
877 using the -i option and supplying a JSON object consisting of the
878 set of name:value pairs needed by the layer.
879
880 If the -i option is not used, the user will be interactively
881 prompted for each of the required property values, which will then
882 be used as values for layer generation.
883
884 The set of properties available can be listed using the
885 'yocto-layer list' command.
886
887 Specifying -c causes the Python code generated and executed to
888 create the layer to be dumped to the 'bspgen.out' file in the
889 current directory, and is useful for debugging.
890
891 NOTE: Once created, you should add your new layer to your
892 bblayers.conf file in order for it to be subsequently seen and
893 modified by the yocto-kernel tool. Instructions for doing this
894 can be found in the README file generated in the layer's top-level

945
946 The first form enumerates all the possible properties that exist
947 and must have values specified for them in the 'yocto-layer
948 create' command. This command is mainly meant to aid the
949 development of user interface alternatives to the default
950 text-based prompting interface. If the -o option is specified,
951 the list of properties, in addition to being displayed, will be
952 written to the specified file as a JSON object. In this case, the
953 object will consist of the set of name:value pairs corresponding
954 to the (possibly nested) dictionary of properties defined by the
955 input statements used by the BSP. Some example output for the
956 'list properties' command:
957
958 $ yocto-layer list properties

960 "default" : example
961 "msg" : Please enter the name you'd like to use for your bbappend file:

1000 }
1001
1002 Each entry in the output consists of the name of the input element
1003 e.g. "layer_priority", followed by the properties defined for that
1004 element enclosed in braces. This information should provide
1005 sufficient information to create a complete user interface. Two
1006 features of the scheme provide for conditional input. First, if a
1007 Python "if" statement appears in place of an input element name,
1008 the set of enclosed input elements apply and should be presented
1009 to the user only if the 'if' statement evaluates to true. The
1010 test in the if statement will always reference another input
1011 element in the list, which means that the element being tested
1012 should be presented to the user before the elements enclosed by
1013 the if block. Secondly, in a similar way, some elements contain
1014 "depends-on" and depends-on-val" tags, which mean that the
1015 affected input element should only be presented to the user if the
1016 element it depends on has already been presented to the user and
1017 the user has selected the specified value for that element.
1018
1019 The second form enumerates all the possible values that exist and
1020 can be specified for any of the enumerable properties in the
1021 'yocto-layer create' command. If the -o option is specified, the
1022 list of values for the given property, in addition to being
1023 displayed, will be written to the specified file as a JSON object.
1024 In this case, the object will consist of the set of name:value
1025 pairs corresponding to the array of property values associated
1026 with the property.
1027
1028 $ yocto-layer list property layer_priority
1029 [no output - layer_priority is a text field that has no enumerable values]
1030
1031 The second form as well is meant mainly for developers of
1032 alternative interfaces - it allows the developer to fetch the
1033 possible values for a given input element on-demand. This
1034 on-demand capability is especially valuable for elements that
1035 require relatively expensive remote operations to fulfill, such as
1036 the example that returns the set of branches available in a remote
1037 git tree above.
