[yocto] Porting of specific Kernel/Driver into yocto.

[Om Prakash PAL]

Hi Bruce,
Thanks for your reply.
I am totally new to Yocto.
I have gone through the section BSP/Linux kernel configuration and if I am not wrong then it explains how can we configure the kernel, not the how we can add/replace a  component(driver etc). 
lets take the example of UART driver, I want to add my own UART driver code.
Should I write a separate recipe file (.bb) for UART Driver?.
if yes then I have to write the recipe files for all my drivers that will be very time consuming. 
Is there any other way that I can port all my desired drivers into Yocto kernel?.
Please help me.
Thanks a lot in advance. 

Best Regards,
Om Prakash Pal

The BSP developer guides show how to extend the yocto kernels, and
also have sections on custom/different kernel versions. Have you
seen that doc yet ? Or have you seen it, and have specific questions ?
