The Yocto Project® is a collaborative Open Source project that provides templates, tools and methods to help create custom Linux-based systems for embedded products, regardless of the hardware architecture. It was founded in 2010 as a collaboration among hardware manufacturers, open-source operating systems vendors, and electronics companies to help standardize embedded Linux development. This webinar will: Present an introduction to the Yocto framework, starting with an overview of Yocto including its advantages and limitations as compared to other approaches for building an embedded Linux image. Describe the major components of Yocto, including what it provides and the tools and components it offers to create embedded Linux systems. An example will be given of creating a Yocto image for the Beaglebone, a low-cost ARM development board. The steps will include building the OS image, creating an SDK for cross-compilation, and deploying the image to the board. Introduce key tools including bitbake and its related configuration files as well as the graphical "toaster" tool. The development platform used will be a Linux-based desktop system. Provide suggestions on how to get started using Yocto and a list of references to more information including web sites and published books. Attendees will gain a good overall understanding of what Yocto provides, the advantages it offers, and the basic process for using it to create an embedded Linux distribution. No previous experience with Yocto will be assumed, although a general understanding of embedded systems development is useful.

- 3. © Integrated Computer Solutions, Inc. All Rights Reserved What is Yocto? • Project to provide templates, tools and methods to create custom Linux- based embedded systems • Founded in 2010 • Open Source, managed by The Linux Foundation • Vendor and platform neutral • Collaborative effort among participants • Members/participants/sponsors include Intel, AMD, Broadcom, TI, Freescale, LG Electronics, Huawei, Mentor Graphics, Dell, The Qt Company
- 4. © Integrated Computer Solutions, Inc. All Rights Reserved Why Is It Needed? • Embedded development is signifcantly harder than native/desktop development • Cross-compilation • Wide scope: boot loader, kernel, BSP/device drivers, packaging format, utilities, applications, SDK • Large, time consuming to build • Desire for repeatability, automation • Licensing issues • Regular need for security and other updates
- 5. © Integrated Computer Solutions, Inc. All Rights Reserved What Yocto Provides • Framework for creating embedded Linux systems • Targets supported: ARM, PPC, MIPS, x86, x86-64 • Hosted on common Linux x86 desktop platforms (CentOS, Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu) • OpenEmbedded build system with bitbake build engine • IDE • Optional graphical interface to build system
- 6. © Integrated Computer Solutions, Inc. All Rights Reserved Benefits/Advantages • Reduced development effort/time • Improved quality • Automation • Stability • Repeatability
- 7. © Integrated Computer Solutions, Inc. All Rights Reserved Limitations/Disadvantages • Embedded Linux targets only • Development tools run on desktop Linux only (or in a Linux vm hosted on e.g. Windows or MacOS) • Doesn't dictate a specifc Linux distribution (but offers Poky as a reference distribution) • Large, complex, can have steep learning curve
