<title>Common Development Models</title>

<para>
    Many development models exist for which you can use the Yocto Project.
    This chapter overviews simple methods that use tools provided by the
    Yocto Project:
    <itemizedlist>
        <listitem><para><emphasis>System Development:</emphasis>
             System Development covers Board Support Package (BSP) development and kernel
             modification or configuration.
             For an example on how to create a BSP, see the
             "<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_BSP_URL;#creating-a-new-bsp-layer-using-the-yocto-bsp-script'>Creating a New BSP Layer Using the yocto-bsp Script</ulink>"
             section in the Yocto Project Board Support Package (BSP) Developer's Guide.
             For more complete information on how to work with the kernel, see the
             <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_KERNEL_DEV_URL;'>Yocto Project Linux Kernel
             Development Manual</ulink>.
             </para></listitem>
         <listitem><para><emphasis>User Application Development:</emphasis>
             User Application Development covers development of applications that you intend
             to run on target hardware.
             For information on how to set up your host development system for user-space
             application development, see the
             <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_ADT_URL;'>Yocto Project Application Developer's Guide</ulink>.
             For a simple example of user-space application development using the
             <trademark class='trade'>Eclipse</trademark> IDE, see the
             "<link linkend='application-development-workflow'>Application
             Development Workflow</link>" section.
             </para></listitem>
         <listitem><para><emphasis>Temporary Source Code Modification:</emphasis>
             Direct modification of temporary source code is a convenient development model
             to quickly iterate and develop towards a solution.
             Once you implement the solution, you should of course take steps to
             get the changes upstream and applied in the affected recipes.</para></listitem>
         <listitem><para><emphasis>Image Development using Hob:</emphasis>
             You can use the <ulink url='&YOCTO_HOME_URL;/tools-resources/projects/hob'>Hob</ulink> to build
             custom operating system images within the build environment.
             Hob provides an efficient interface to the OpenEmbedded build system.</para></listitem>
         <listitem><para><emphasis>Using a Development Shell:</emphasis>
             You can use a <filename>devshell</filename> to efficiently debug commands or simply
             edit packages.
             Working inside a development shell is a quick way to set up the OpenEmbedded build
             environment to work on parts of a project.</para></listitem>
     </itemizedlist>
</para>

<section id='system-development-model'>
    <title>System Development Workflow</title>

    <para>
        System development involves modification or creation of an image that you want to run on
        a specific hardware target.
        Usually, when you want to create an image that runs on embedded hardware, the image does
        not require the same number of features that a full-fledged Linux distribution provides.
        Thus, you can create a much smaller image that is designed to use only the
        features for your particular hardware.
    </para>

    <para>
        To help you understand how system development works in the Yocto Project, this section
        covers two types of image development:  BSP creation and kernel modification or
        configuration.
    </para>

    <section id='developing-a-board-support-package-bsp'>
        <title>Developing a Board Support Package (BSP)</title>

        <para>
            A BSP is a package of recipes that, when applied during a build, results in
            an image that you can run on a particular board.
            Thus, the package when compiled into the new image, supports the operation of the board.
        </para>

        <note>
            For a brief list of terms used when describing the development process in the Yocto Project,
            see the "<link linkend='yocto-project-terms'>Yocto Project Terms</link>" section.
        </note>

        <para>
            The remainder of this section presents the basic
            steps used to create a BSP using the Yocto Project's
            <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_BSP_URL;#using-the-yocto-projects-bsp-tools'>BSP Tools</ulink>.
            Although not required for BSP creation, the
            <filename>meta-intel</filename> repository, which contains
            many BSPs supported by the Yocto Project, is part of the example.
        </para>

        <para>
            For an example that shows how to create a new layer using the tools, see the
            "<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_BSP_URL;#creating-a-new-bsp-layer-using-the-yocto-bsp-script'>Creating a New BSP Layer Using the yocto-bsp Script</ulink>"
             section in the Yocto Project Board Support Package (BSP) Developer's Guide.
        </para>

        <para>
            The following illustration and list summarize the BSP creation general workflow.

                    Having these files on your system gives you access to the build
                    process and to the tools you need.
                    For information on how to set up the Source Directory,

                <listitem><para><emphasis>Establish the <filename>meta-intel</filename>
                    repository on your system</emphasis>:  Having local copies
                    of these supported BSP layers on your system gives you
                    access to layers you might be able to build on or modify
                    to create your BSP.
                    For information on how to get these files, see the
                    "<link linkend='getting-setup'>Getting Set Up</link>" section.</para></listitem>

                    Layers are ideal for
                    isolating and storing work for a given piece of hardware.
                    A layer is really just a location or area in which you place
                    the recipes and configurations for your BSP.
                    In fact, a BSP is, in itself, a special type of layer.
                    The simplest way to create a new BSP layer that is compliant with the
                    Yocto Project is to use the <filename>yocto-bsp</filename> script.
                    For information about that script, see the
                    "<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_BSP_URL;#creating-a-new-bsp-layer-using-the-yocto-bsp-script'>Creating a New BSP Layer Using the yocto-bsp Script</ulink>"
                    section in the Yocto Project Board Support (BSP) Developer's Guide.

                    <para>
                    Another example that illustrates a layer is an application.
                    Suppose you are creating an application that has library or other dependencies in
                    order for it to compile and run.
                    The layer, in this case, would be where all the recipes that define those dependencies
                    are kept.
                    The key point for a layer is that it is an isolated area that contains
                    all the relevant information for the project that the OpenEmbedded build
                    system knows about.

            Kernel modification involves changing the Yocto Project kernel, which could involve changing
            configuration options as well as adding new kernel recipes.
            Configuration changes can be added in the form of configuration fragments, while recipe
            modification comes through the kernel's <filename>recipes-kernel</filename> area
            in a kernel layer you create.

            <title>Kernel Overview</title>

            <para>
                Traditionally, when one thinks of a patched kernel, they think of a base kernel
                source tree and a fixed structure that contains kernel patches.
                The Yocto Project, however, employs mechanisms that, in a sense, result in a kernel source
                generator.
                By the end of this section, this analogy will become clearer.
            </para>

            <para>
                You can find a web interface to the Yocto Project kernel source repositories at
                <ulink url='&YOCTO_GIT_URL;'></ulink>.
                If you look at the interface, you will see to the left a grouping of
                Git repositories titled "Yocto Linux Kernel."
                Within this group, you will find several kernels supported by
                the Yocto Project:
                <itemizedlist>

                    <listitem><para><emphasis><filename>linux-yocto-dev</filename></emphasis> - A development
                    kernel based on the latest upstream release candidate available.</para></listitem>
                </itemizedlist>
            </para>

            <para>
                The kernels are maintained using the Git revision control system
                that structures them using the familiar "tree", "branch", and "leaf" scheme.
                Branches represent diversions from general code to more specific code, while leaves
                represent the end-points for a complete and unique kernel whose source files,
                when gathered from the root of the tree to the leaf, accumulate to create the files
                necessary for a specific piece of hardware and its features.
                The following figure displays this concept:
            <para>
                <imagedata fileref="figures/kernel-overview-1.png"
                    width="6in" depth="6in" align="center" scale="100" />
            </para>

            <para>
                Within the figure, the "Kernel.org Branch Point" represents the point in the tree
                where a supported base kernel is modified from the Linux kernel.
                For example, this could be the branch point for the <filename>linux-yocto-3.4</filename>
                kernel.
                Thus, everything further to the right in the structure is based on the
                <filename>linux-yocto-3.4</filename> kernel.
                Branch points to right in the figure represent where the
                <filename>linux-yocto-3.4</filename> kernel is modified for specific hardware
                or types of kernels, such as real-time kernels.
                Each leaf thus represents the end-point for a kernel designed to run on a specific
                targeted device.
            </para>

            <para>
                The overall result is a Git-maintained repository from which all the supported
                kernel types can be derived for all the supported devices.
                A big advantage to this scheme is the sharing of common features by keeping them in
                "larger" branches within the tree.
                This practice eliminates redundant storage of similar features shared among kernels.
            </para>

            <note>
                Keep in mind the figure does not take into account all the supported Yocto
                Project kernel types, but rather shows a single generic kernel just for conceptual purposes.
                Also keep in mind that this structure represents the Yocto Project source repositories
                that are either pulled from during the build or established on the host development system
                prior to the build by either cloning a particular kernel's Git repository or by
                downloading and unpacking a tarball.
            </note>

            <para>
                Upstream storage of all the available kernel source code is one thing, while
                representing and using the code on your host development system is another.
                Conceptually, you can think of the kernel source repositories as all the
                source files necessary for all the supported kernels.
                As a developer, you are just interested in the source files for the kernel on
                which you are working.
                And, furthermore, you need them available on your host system.
            </para>

            <para>
                Kernel source code is available on your host system a couple of different
                ways.
                If you are working in the kernel all the time, you probably would want
                to set up your own local Git repository of the kernel tree.
                If you just need to make some patches to the kernel, you can access
                temporary kernel source files that were extracted and used
                during a build.
                We will just talk about working with the temporary source code.
                For more information on how to get kernel source code onto your
                host system, see the
                "<link linkend='local-kernel-files'>Yocto Project Kernel</link>"
                bulleted item earlier in the manual.
            </para>

            <para>
                What happens during the build?
                When you build the kernel on your development system, all files needed for the build
                are taken from the source repositories pointed to by the
                <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#var-SRC_URI'><filename>SRC_URI</filename></ulink> variable
                and gathered in a temporary work area
                where they are subsequently used to create the unique kernel.
                Thus, in a sense, the process constructs a local source tree specific to your
                kernel to generate the new kernel image - a source generator if you will.
            </para>
                The following figure shows the temporary file structure
                created on your host system when the build occurs.

    <title>Application Development Workflow</title>

    <para>
        Application development involves creating an application that you want
        to run on your target hardware, which is running a kernel image created using the
        OpenEmbedded build system.
        The Yocto Project provides an
        <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_ADT_URL;#adt-intro-section'>Application Development Toolkit (ADT)</ulink>
        and stand-alone
        <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_ADT_URL;#the-cross-development-toolchain'>cross-development toolchains</ulink>
        that facilitate quick development and integration of your application into its runtime environment.
        Using the ADT and toolchains, you can compile and link your application.
        You can then deploy your application to the actual hardware or to the QEMU emulator for testing.
        If you are familiar with the popular <trademark class='trade'>Eclipse</trademark> IDE,
        you can use an Eclipse Yocto Plug-in to
        allow you to develop, deploy, and test your application all from within Eclipse.
    </para>

    <para>
        While we strongly suggest using the ADT to develop your application, this option might not
        be best for you.
        If this is the case, you can still use pieces of the Yocto Project for your development process.
        However, because the process can vary greatly, this manual does not provide detail on the process.

            Installing and configuring the Plug-in results in an environment
            that has extensions specifically designed to let you more easily
            develop software.
            These extensions allow for cross-compilation, deployment, and

            actual target hardware.
            You can also perform cross-debugging and profiling.
            The environment also supports a suite of tools that allows you

                These tools are aids in developing and debugging applications
                and images.
                You can run these user-space tools from within the Eclipse
                IDE through the "YoctoTools" menu.

                Every tool needs to have the connection configured.
                You must select an existing TCF-based RSE connection to the
                remote target.

    <title>Modifying Temporary Source Code</title>

    <para>
        You might
        find it helpful during development to modify the temporary source code used by recipes
        to build packages.
        For example, suppose you are developing a patch and you need to experiment a bit
        to figure out your solution.
        After you have initially built the package, you can iteratively tweak the
        source code, which is located in the
        <link linkend='build-directory'>Build Directory</link>, and then
        you can force a re-compile and quickly test your altered code.
        Once you settle on a solution, you can then preserve your changes in the form of
        patches.
        You can accomplish these steps all within either a
        <ulink url='http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/quilt'>Quilt</ulink> or
        <link linkend='git'>Git</link> workflow.
    </para>

    <section id='finding-the-temporary-source-code'>
        <title>Finding the Temporary Source Code</title>

        <para>
            During a build, the unpacked temporary source code used by recipes
            to build packages is available in the Build Directory as
            defined by the
            <filename><ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#var-S'>S</ulink></filename> variable.
            Below is the default value for the <filename>S</filename> variable as defined in the
            <filename>meta/conf/bitbake.conf</filename> configuration file in the
            <link linkend='source-directory'>Source Directory</link>:
            <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     S = ${WORKDIR}/${BP}
            </literallayout>
            You should be aware that many recipes override the <filename>S</filename> variable.
            For example, recipes that fetch their source from Git usually set
            <filename>S</filename> to <filename>${WORKDIR}/git</filename>.
            <note>
                The
                <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#var-BP'><filename>BP</filename></ulink>
                represents the base recipe name, which consists of the name and version:
                <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     BP = ${BPN}-${PV}
                </literallayout>
            </note>
        </para>

        <para>
            The path to the work directory for the recipe
            (<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#var-WORKDIR'><filename>WORKDIR</filename></ulink>) depends
            on the recipe name and the architecture of the target device.
            For example, here is the work directory for recipes and resulting packages that are
            not device-dependent:
            <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     ${TMPDIR}/work/${PACKAGE_ARCH}-poky-${TARGET_OS}/${PN}/${EXTENDPE}${PV}-${PR}
            </literallayout>
            Let's look at an example without variables.
            Assuming a top-level <link linkend='source-directory'>Source Directory</link>
            named <filename>poky</filename>
            and a default Build Directory of <filename>poky/build</filename>,
            the following is the work directory for the <filename>acl</filename> recipe that
            creates the <filename>acl</filename> package:
            <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     ~/poky/build/tmp/work/i586-poky-linux/acl/2.2.51-r3/
            </literallayout>
        </para>

        <para>
            If your resulting package is dependent on the target device,
            the work directory varies slightly:
            <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     ${TMPDIR}/work/${MACHINE}-poky-${TARGET_OS}/${PN}/${EXTENDPE}${PV}-${PR}
            </literallayout>
            Again, assuming top-level Source Directory named <filename>poky</filename>
            and a default Build Directory of <filename>poky/build</filename>, the
            following are the work and temporary source directories, respectively,
            for the <filename>acl</filename> package that is being
            built for a MIPS-based device:
            <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     ~/poky/build/tmp/work/mips-poky-linux/acl/2.2.51-r2
     ~/poky/build/tmp/work/mips-poky-linux/acl/2.2.51-r2/acl-2.2.51
            </literallayout>
        </para>

            This section outlines the typical workflow you can use to modify temporary source code,
            test changes, and then preserve the changes in the form of a patch all using Quilt.

                    Before modifying source code, you need to create a new patch.
                    To create a new patch file, use <filename>quilt new</filename> as below:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>

                <listitem><para><emphasis>Notify Quilt and Add Files:</emphasis>
                    After creating the patch, you need to notify Quilt about the files
                    you plan to edit.
                    You notify Quilt by adding the files to the patch you just created:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     $ quilt add file1.c file2.c file3.c
                    </literallayout>

                    to the patch.</para></listitem>
                <listitem><para><emphasis>Test Your Changes:</emphasis>
                    Once you have modified the source code, the easiest way to test your changes
                    is by calling the <filename>compile</filename> task as shown in the following example:
                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     $ bitbake -c compile -f &lt;name_of_package&gt;
                    </literallayout>
                    The <filename>-f</filename> or <filename>--force</filename>
                    option forces the specified task to execute.
                    If you find problems with your code, you can just keep editing and
                    re-testing iteratively until things work as expected.
                    <note>All the modifications you make to the temporary source code
                    disappear once you <filename>-c clean</filename> or
                    <filename>-c cleanall</filename> with BitBake for the package.
                    Modifications will also disappear if you use the <filename>rm_work</filename>

                    Once your changes work as expected, you need to use Quilt to generate the final patch that
                    contains all your modifications.

                    For simplicity, copy the patch file into a directory named <filename>files</filename>,
                    which you can create in the same directory that holds the recipe

                    Placing the patch here guarantees that the OpenEmbedded build system will find
                    the patch.

            This section outlines the typical workflow you can use to modify temporary source code,

                    the files.
                    At this point, your Git repository is aware of all the source code files.

        The <ulink url='&YOCTO_HOME_URL;/tools-resources/projects/hob'>Hob</ulink> is a graphical user interface for the
        OpenEmbedded build system, which is based on BitBake.
        You can use the Hob to build custom operating system images within the Yocto Project build environment.
        Hob simply provides a friendly interface over the build system used during development.
        In other words, building images with the Hob lets you take care of common build tasks more easily.

    <title>Using a Development Shell</title>

    <para>
        When debugging certain commands or even when just editing packages,
        <filename>devshell</filename> can be a useful tool.
        When you invoke <filename>devshell</filename>, source files are
        extracted into your working directory and patches are applied.
        Then, a new terminal is opened and you are placed in the working directory.
        In the new terminal, all the OpenEmbedded build-related environment variables are
        still defined so you can use commands such as <filename>configure</filename> and
        <filename>make</filename>.
        The commands execute just as if the OpenEmbedded build system were executing them.
        Consequently, working this way can be helpful when debugging a build or preparing
        software to be used with the OpenEmbedded build system.
    </para>

    <para>
        Following is an example that uses <filename>devshell</filename> on a target named
        <filename>matchbox-desktop</filename>:
        <literallayout class='monospaced'>
     $ bitbake matchbox-desktop -c devshell
        </literallayout>
    </para>

    <para>
        This command spawns a terminal with a shell prompt within the OpenEmbedded build environment.
        The <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#var-OE_TERMINAL'><filename>OE_TERMINAL</filename></ulink>
        variable controls what type of shell is opened.
    </para>

    <para>
        For spawned terminals, the following occurs:
        <itemizedlist>
            <listitem><para>The <filename>PATH</filename> variable includes the
                cross-toolchain.</para></listitem>
            <listitem><para>The <filename>pkgconfig</filename> variables find the correct
                <filename>.pc</filename> files.</para></listitem>

                Yocto Project site files as well as any other necessary files.</para></listitem>
        </itemizedlist>
    </para>

    <para>
        Within this environment, you can run configure or compile
        commands as if they were being run by
        the OpenEmbedded build system itself.
        As noted earlier, the working directory also automatically changes to the
        Source Directory (<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#var-S'><filename>S</filename></ulink>).
    </para>

    <para>
        When you are finished, you just exit the shell or close the terminal window.
    </para>

    <note>
        <para>
            It is worth remembering that when using <filename>devshell</filename>
            you need to use the full compiler name such as <filename>arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gcc</filename>
            instead of just using <filename>gcc</filename>.
            The same applies to other applications such as <filename>binutils</filename>,
            <filename>libtool</filename> and so forth.
            BitBake sets up environment variables such as <filename>CC</filename>
            to assist applications, such as <filename>make</filename> to find the correct tools.
        </para>

        <para>
            It is also worth noting that <filename>devshell</filename> still works over
            X11 forwarding and similar situations.
