Hi Otavio,

Could you kindly provide us with a status update on this?

I noticed no build errors on a build with current head of meta-freescale 
master branch with head of Poky Sumo branch:

Is currently only the i.mx8 support holding you back? In that case, I 
would kindly suggest creating the sumo branch right now and adding the 
i.mx8 support later on.

It would also give the oppertunity to merge patches like 
https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/meta-freescale/2018-May/022537.html 
to meta-freescale master to match current Poky master.

Thanks for considering,

Bas.
