[meta-intel] Building Haswell BSP

[Chris Trobridge]

Hi,

I've just received some new hardware with a Sharkbay motherboard and I am trying to get the Haswell BSP (meta-haswell) built for it.

I can see this BSP was introduced in Dylan but was not maintained in later branches so it does not appear in any currently active branch, although it is still referenced in patches.

Hob fails to parse the Haswell layer as it includes "tune-x86_64.inc".

This was removed in http://patchwork.openembedded.org/patch/65457/ .

As a start I am considering how the other intel BSPs have changed in the most recent branch and applying those changes to the Haswell BSP.

What's the recommended way to use a BSP that's no longer supported, and why was Haswell  only supported in one branch?

Regards,
Chris
