[meta-intel] [PATCH 1/2] meta-isg: meta-valleyisland: BSP layer retirement

chun.weng.ong at intel.com chun.weng.ong at intel.com
Tue Aug 23 23:58:51 PDT 2016


From: Ong Chun Weng <chun.weng.ong at intel.com>

This layer is retired from meta-intel master branch in future
YP releases because there are no immediate requirements for
support in newer LTSI kernel.

-This README file contains information on building the meta-valleyisland
-BSP layer, and booting the images contained in the /binary directory.
-Please see the corresponding sections below for details.
-
-The Valley Island BSP consists of two versions:
-1. 32-bit Valley Island
-2. 64-bit Valley Island
-
-The BSP is made specifically for Intel® Atom E3800 Processor
-Development Kit (formerly known as Valley Island). This BSP integrates
-Intel Graphics for Linux driver (i965) as the integrated graphics.
-
-Valley Island BSP is meant to support the following platforms:
-1. Valley Island Development Kit
-2. Bayley Bay CRB
-3. Bakersport CRB
-4. MinnowBoard MAX
-
-Further information on the platforms supported by this BSP can be
-found here:
-
-  http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/intelligent-systems/bay-trail/atom-processor-e3800-family-overview.html
-
-Information on all Intel® embedded platforms can be found here:
-
-  http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/embedded/hwsw/hardware
-
-Yocto Project Compatible
-========================
-
-This BSP is compatible with the Yocto Project as per the requirements
-listed here:
-
-  https://www.yoctoproject.org/webform/yocto-project-compatible-registration
-
-Dependencies

-  branch: master
-
-  URI: git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-intel
-  layers: intel
-  branch: master
-

-I. Building the meta-valleyisland BSP layer
-===========================================
-
-In order to build an image with BSP support for a given release, you
-need to download the corresponding BSP tarball from the 'Board Support
-Package (BSP) Downloads' page of the Yocto Project website.
-
-Having that done, and assuming you have extracted the BSP tarball contents
-at the top-level of your Yocto build tree, you can build a valleyisland
-image by adding the location of the meta-valleyisland layer to
-bblayers.conf, along with the meta-intel layer itself (to access
-common metadata shared between BSPs) e.g.:
-
-  yocto/meta-intel \
-  yocto/meta-intel/meta-isg/meta-valleyisland \
-
-To enable the 32-bit Valley Island layer, add the valleyisland-32 MACHINE to local.conf:
-
-  MACHINE ?= "valleyisland-32"
-
-To enable the 64-bit Valley Island layer, add the valleyisland-64 MACHINE to local.conf:
-
-  MACHINE ?= "valleyisland-64"
-
-The meta-valleyisland contains support for Intel HD Audio. However, HD Audio
-driver is dependent on gstreamer plugins and ffmpeg plugins to work properly.
-These gstreamer plugins require license flags in order to be included in the build.
-
-Add "commercial" in the LICENSE_FLAGS_WHITELIST in local.conf. For example:
-
-  LICENSE_FLAGS_WHITELIST = "commercial"
-
-You should then be able to build a valleyisland image as such:
-
-  $ source oe-init-build-env
-  $ bitbake core-image-sato
-
-At the end of a successful build, you should have a live image that
-you can boot from a USB flash drive (see instructions on how to do
-that below, in the section 'Booting the images from /binary').
-
-As an alternative to downloading the BSP tarball, you can also work
-directly from the meta-intel git repository.  For each BSP in the
-'meta-intel' repository, there are multiple branches, one
-corresponding to each major release starting with 'laverne' (0.90), in
-addition to the latest code which tracks the current master (note that
-not all BSPs are present in every release).  Instead of extracting a
-BSP tarball at the top level of your yocto build tree, you can
-equivalently check out the appropriate branch from the meta-intel
-repository at the same location.
-
-II. Booting the images in /binary
-=================================
-
-This BSP contains (or builds) live images which must be converted to a
-partitioned image format in order to boot them on the Valley Island
-Development Kit, Bayley Bay CRB and Bakersport CRB.
-
-You can deploy the hddimg image to a USB or SATA device. You will
-need to know the device name on your host as well as the device name on
-the target. Be careful with this step as using the wrong host device can
-result in overwriting data on your host machine.
-
-Under Linux, USB and SATA devices typically appears as /dev/sdb,
-/dev/sdc, etc. Watching your system messages as you connect the device
-will tell you exactly which device name is assigned to the device.
-On the Valley Island platform, assuming only one storage device is
-attached at boot, a USB or SATA device will be /dev/sda.
-
-After inserting the boot media into your host machine and determining
-your host and target device, create the image using the mkefidisk.sh
-script, provided by poky under scripts/contrib/. Note that root
-privileges are required. For example, using an USB device which appears
-as /dev/sdc on the host:
-
-$ sudo ./mkefidisk.sh /dev/sdc core-image-sato-valleyisland-32.hddimg /dev/sda
-
-Follow the prompts on the screen to confirm the action.
-
-Insert the device into the Valley Island platform and power on. This
-should result in a system booted to the Sato graphical desktop.
-
-The root password is empty on the Poky reference distribution images.
-
-
-III. Device Notes
-=================
-a. Boot Loader
---------------
-Valley Island Development Kit
-BIOS : EBC MF01X003
-Note : It is recommended to use the default settings of this BIOS version.
-
-Bayley Bay/ Bakersport CRB/ MinnowBoard MAX
-BIOS : ISG BIOS 092_032
-EC   : KSC v3.14
-
-Required settings in ISG BIOS
-
-  OS Selection:
-    Device Manager -> Boot -> OS Selection -> Yocto Linux
-
-  Turn off Secure-boot:
-    Device Manager -> Secure Boot Configuration -> Attempt Secure Boot ->
-    Uncheck
-
-  Turn off LPE Audio Support:
-    Device Manager -> System Setup -> South Cluster Configuration ->
-    Audio Configuration -> LPE Audio Support -> Disable
-
-  Turn on HD Audio Support:
-    Device Manager -> System Setup -> South Cluster Configuration ->
-    Audio Configuration -> Azalia Controller -> Enable
-
-Please use EFI mode for all boot medium types, i.e. USB disk and Hard Disk.
-Setting in BIOS:
-
-  Choose boot medium:
-    Boot Manager -> EFI (Hard Drive/USB Device)
-
-  Save settings:
-    Boot Maintenance Manager -> Boot Options -> Change Boot Order ->
-    Change the order -> Commmit Changes and Exit
-
-
-b. I/O drivers
---------------
-The I2C controller driver supports fast mode by default.
-To enable standard mode, appends the arguments to kernel command line.
-
-  "i2c-designware-pci.force_std_mode=1" (PCI mode)
-  "i2c-designware-platform.force_std_mode=1" (ACPI mode)
-
-
-c. LPIO ACPI enumeration support
---------------------------------
-Required settings in ISG BIOS
-
-  Turn on ACPI mode
-    Device Manager -> System Setup -> South Cluster Configuration ->
-    LPSS & SCC Configuration -> LPSS & SCC Device Mode -> ACPI mode
-
-Some LPSS devices are hidden in ACPI mode to support Windows. To enable
-these devices, toggle the following in the BIOS Menu.
-
-  Device Manager -> System Setup -> South Cluster Configuration -> Miscellaneous
-  Configuration -> Unsupported LPSS Device and select "Unhide"
-
-
-IV. Known Limitations
-=====================
-a. I/O drivers
---------------
-HSUART:
-
-When runninig PCI mode HSUART at baud rate 2M and above, you may observe
-kernel message "serial8250: too much work for irq...". Most of the time it
-won't disrupt the transfer and able to complete without data corruption.
-However, occasionally your transfer may halt when that kernel message appear.
-In this case, you would need to re-open the HSUART port.
