[yocto] Installing openvswitch

Please excuse if this seems to be a very basic question. I am completely new to yocto.

I have openvswitch package installed in my image. But, I do not see a folder called “openvswitch-2.xx” with all the source code at all! I need the code to make changes. I see these:


-        find -iname "openvswitch*"
./run/openvswitch
./usr/local/etc/openvswitch
./usr/lib/libvirt/ptest/tests/networkxml2xmlupdateout/openvswitch-net-modified.xml
./usr/lib/libvirt/ptest/tests/networkxml2xmlupdateout/openvswitch-net-without-alice.xml
./usr/lib/libvirt/ptest/tests/networkxml2xmlupdateout/openvswitch-net-more-portgroups.xml
./usr/lib/libvirt/ptest/tests/networkxml2xmlout/openvswitch-net.xml
./usr/lib/libvirt/ptest/tests/networkxml2xmlin/openvswitch-net.xml
./usr/lib/openvswitch
./usr/share/openvswitch
./usr/share/openvswitch/bugtool-plugins/system-configuration/openvswitch.xml
./usr/share/openvswitch/bugtool-plugins/system-logs/openvswitch.xml
./usr/share/openvswitch/bugtool-plugins/kernel-info/openvswitch.xml
./usr/share/openvswitch/bugtool-plugins/network-status/openvswitch.xml
./usr/include/linux/openvswitch.h
./etc/openvswitch-controller
./etc/default/openvswitch-controller
./etc/default/openvswitch-switch
./etc/init.d/openvswitch-controller
./etc/init.d/openvswitch-switch
./etc/openvswitch
./var/lib/openvswitch
./var/log/openvswitch

But they don’t have the code. Any help ?

Thanks,
Monica

Thanks for the info. It worked once I added the openvswitch package using image_install.

Thanks,

Okay thanks. I’m assuming by packages you mean the various dependency packages for openvswitch.

And, once I add and bring up the image, do I just start ovs by the usual procedure or is the procedure different ?

Thanks,
Monica

Doesn’t that include the openvswitch folder as well? If it is, what else do I need to add/change?

You need to actually add the packages that you want to your image.
