[meta-freescale] meta-freescale Sumo release?

[Tsai, Matt]

Hi Andrey,

Thank you the reply.

I picked the sumo branches from both Poky and meta-freescale for P2020 RDB. They were the stable branches at the time I started.
https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/log/?h=sumo
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-freescale/log/?h=sumo

I was looking for a release note or annoucement for meta-freescale sumo branch:
Something like this: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto-announce/2018-May/000136.html from Poky for the sumo release.
Or something like this: http://freescale.github.io/doc/release-notes/2.4/ from meta-freescale for the sumo release. However, Rocko is the latest release I could find.

- What is the difference between the meta-freescale reporitory you referred to (on Github) and the yoctoproject.org GIT repository?
- If meta-freescale has no plan to release "sumo", what are the releases after "rocko" that supports P2020 RDB? And where I can find a release note (annoucement), or plan if it is not released yet?


Thank you,


Matt

Freescale Github contains a sumo branch
(https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_Freescale_meta-2Dfreescale_tree_sumo&d=DwIBaQ&c=q6k2DsTcEGCcCb_WtVSz6hhIl8hvYssy7sH8ZwfbbKU&r=LfbDghM-XW_5RT-h77pAoNBiz4zBr-sjgQI-UHuV1XU&m=R0X_hJDcCODrBwVU9b_M1xTLZi8FRWqMg56DLMI4wc0&s=4-iQ8j3eS2bceupldZESlC3vYkrBPFnYqDeFOVJJgag&e= ), so you should be able to build off of that. You should also pick up a corresponding sumo from meta-freescale-distro and meta-freescale-3rdparty.

What exact release announcement and documentation you're referring to?
From what I see, sumo branch is present in all layers necessary to build the Freescale distro.

Besides, what is your motivation to use the sumo branch? It is already quite old, and is at least 2 stable branches behind (thud and warrior) with one more (3.0) underway. Maybe you should consider to switch to the latest here as I do not believe that sumo has any "release plan"
anymore.
