NAME
yocto-bsp create - Create a new Yocto BSP
SYNOPSIS
yocto-bsp create <bsp-name> <karch> [-o <DIRNAME> | --outdir <DIRNAME>]
[-i <JSON PROPERTY FILE> | --infile <JSON PROPERTY_FILE>]
[-c | --codedump] [-s | --skip-git-check]
DESCRIPTION
This command creates a Yocto BSP based on the specified
parameters. The new BSP will be a new Yocto BSP layer contained
by default within the top-level directory specified as
'meta-bsp-name'. The -o option can be used to place the BSP layer
in a directory with a different name and location.
The value of the 'karch' parameter determines the set of files
that will be generated for the BSP, along with the specific set of
'properties' that will be used to fill out the BSP-specific
portions of the BSP. The possible values for the 'karch' parameter
can be listed via 'yocto-bsp list karch'.
The BSP-specific properties that define the values that will be
used to generate a particular BSP can be specified on the
command-line using the -i option and supplying a JSON object
consisting of the set of name:value pairs needed by the BSP.
If the -i option is not used, the user will be interactively
prompted for each of the required property values, which will then
be used as values for BSP generation.
The set of properties available for a given architecture can be
listed using the 'yocto-bsp list' command.
Specifying -c causes the Python code generated and executed to
create the BSP to be dumped to the 'bspgen.out' file in the
current directory, and is useful for debugging.
NOTE: Once created, you should add your new layer to your
bblayers.conf file in order for it to be subsequently seen and
modified by the yocto-kernel tool.
For example, assuming your poky repo is at /path/to/poky, your new
BSP layer is at /path/to/poky/meta-mybsp, and your build directory
is /path/to/build:
$ gedit /path/to/build/conf/bblayers.conf
BBLAYERS ?= " \\
/path/to/poky/meta \\
/path/to/poky/meta-poky \\
/path/to/poky/meta-mybsp \\
"

yocto_bsp_list_usage = """
usage: yocto-bsp list karch
yocto-bsp list <karch> properties
[-o <JSON PROPERTY FILE> | --outfile <JSON PROPERTY_FILE>]
yocto-bsp list <karch> property <xxx>
[-o <JSON PROPERTY FILE> | --outfile <JSON PROPERTY_FILE>]
This command enumerates the complete set of possible values for a
specified option or property needed by the BSP creation process.
The first form enumerates all the possible values that exist and can
be specified for the 'karch' parameter to the 'yocto bsp create'
command.
The second form enumerates all the possible properties that exist and
must have values specified for them in the 'yocto bsp create' command
for the given 'karch'.
The third form enumerates all the possible values that exist and can
be specified for any of the enumerable properties of the given

NAME
yocto-bsp list - List available values for options and BSP properties
SYNOPSIS
yocto-bsp list karch
yocto-bsp list <karch> properties
[--o <JSON PROPERTY FILE> | -outfile <JSON PROPERTY_FILE>]
yocto-bsp list <karch> property <xxx>
[--o <JSON PROPERTY FILE> | -outfile <JSON PROPERTY_FILE>]
DESCRIPTION
This command enumerates the complete set of possible values for a
specified option or property needed by the BSP creation process.
The first form enumerates all the possible values that exist and
can be specified for the 'karch' parameter to the 'yocto bsp
create' command. Example output for the 'list karch' command:
$ yocto-bsp list karch
Architectures available:
arm
powerpc
i386
mips
mips64
x86_64
qemu
The second form enumerates all the possible properties that exist
and must have values specified for them in the 'yocto bsp create'
command for the given 'karch'. This command is mainly meant to
allow the development user interface alternatives to the default
text-based prompting interface. If the -o option is specified,
the list of properties, in addition to being displayed, will be
written to the specified file as a JSON object. In this case, the
object will consist of the set of name:value pairs corresponding
to the (possibly nested) dictionary of properties defined by the
input statements used by the BSP. Some example output for the
'list properties' command:
$ yocto-bsp list arm properties
"touchscreen" : {
"msg" : Does your BSP have a touchscreen? (y/N)
"default" : n
"type" : boolean
}
"uboot_loadaddress" : {
"msg" : Please specify a value for UBOOT_LOADADDRESS.
"default" : 0x80008000
"type" : edit
"prio" : 40
}
"kernel_choice" : {
"prio" : 10
"default" : linux-yocto_3.2
"depends-on" : use_default_kernel
"depends-on-val" : n
"msg" : Please choose the kernel to use in this BSP =>
"type" : choicelist
"gen" : bsp.kernel.kernels
}
"if kernel_choice == "linux-yocto_3.0":" : {
"base_kbranch_linux_yocto_3_0" : {
"prio" : 20
"default" : yocto/standard
"depends-on" : new_kbranch_linux_yocto_3_0
"depends-on-val" : y
"msg" : Please choose a machine branch to base this BSP on =>
"type" : choicelist
"gen" : bsp.kernel.all_branches
}
.
.
.
Each entry in the output consists of the name of the input element
e.g. "touchscreen", followed by the properties defined for that
element enclosed in braces. This information should provide
sufficient information to create a complete user interface with.
Two features of the scheme provide for conditional input. First,
if a Python "if" statement appears in place of an input element
name, the set of enclosed input elements apply and should be
presented to the user only if the 'if' statement evaluates to
true. The test in the if statement will always reference another
input element in the list, which means that the element being
tested should be presented to the user before the elements
enclosed by the if block. Secondly, in a similar way, some
elements contain "depends-on" and depends-on-val" tags, which mean
that the affected input element should only be presented to the
user if the element it depends on has already been presented to
the user and the user has selected the specified value for that
element.
The third form enumerates all the possible values that exist and
can be specified for any of the enumerable properties of the given
'karch' in the 'yocto bsp create' command. If the -o option is
specified, the list of values for the given property, in addition
to being displayed, will be written to the specified file as a
JSON object. In this case, the object will consist of the set of
name:value pairs corresponding to the array of property values
associated with the property.
$ yocto-bsp list i386 property xserver_choice

The third form as well is meant mainly for developers of
alternative interfaces - it allows the developer to fetch the
possible values for a given input element on-demand. This
on-demand capability is especially valuable for elements that
require relatively expensive remote operations to fulfill, such as
the example that returns the set of branches available in a remote
git tree above.

DESCRIPTION
This command creates a generic Yocto layer based on the specified

in a directory with a different name and location.
If layer_priority is specified, a simple layer will be created

The layer-specific properties that define the values that will be
used to generate the layer can be specified on the command-line
using the -i option and supplying a JSON object consisting of the
set of name:value pairs needed by the layer.
If the -i option is not used, the user will be interactively
prompted for each of the required property values, which will then
be used as values for layer generation.
The set of properties available can be listed using the
'yocto-layer list' command.
Specifying -c causes the Python code generated and executed to
create the layer to be dumped to the 'bspgen.out' file in the
current directory, and is useful for debugging.
NOTE: Once created, you should add your new layer to your
