The first place you should start to better understand many details of the Yocto project is the Yocto project website.
Working with a User Space Yocto Layer
This tip has been adapted to PetaLinux using the meta-example layer available here
meta-example Code Block |
---|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/DynamicDevices/meta-example |
This example layer is providing 3 build recipes, bbexample, bbexample-rt and bbexample-lt respectively fetching the source code from a git tree, a remote tar file and a local tar file
Code Block |
---|
|
$ petalinux-build -c bbexample
$ petalinux-build -c bbexample-rt
$ petalinux-build -c bbexample-lt |
Configuring the layer path in the PetaLinux build system
Move to your Petalinux PetaLinux project directory, add the layer path in below config option.
Code Block |
---|
cd <plnx-proj-root>
petalinux-config --> Yocto Settings --> User Layers --> (/absolute_path_to_meta_layer/meta-example) user layer 0
--> () user layer 1 |
Move to your Yocto project build directory, edit the
conf/bblayers.conf file and add your layer path to
BBLAYERS Code Block |
---|
|
BBLAYERS := " \
${SDKBASEMETAPATH}/layers/poky/meta \
${SDKBASEMETAPATH}/layers/poky/meta-poky \
/absolute_path_to_meta_layer/meta-example \
" |
The recipe we are going to build is
https://github.com/DynamicDevices/meta-example/blob/master/recipes-example/bbexample/bbexample-lt_1.0.bbThe recipe bbexample-lt is using some variables
1.
SRC_URI Space-delimited list of URIs to download source code, patches, and other files from git, local absolute path, https, ftp etc.
2.
PN is the Package Name. The value of this variable is derived by BitBake from the base name of the recipe file.
3.
PV is the Package Version. which is derived by BitBake from the base name of the recipe file
Code Block |
---|
|
# Use local tarball
SRC_URI = "file://bbexample-${PV}.tar.gz" |
The recipe
bbexample-lt can invoked using the following command
Code Block |
---|
|
$ petalinux-build -c bbexample-lt |
here is the command output
Code Block |
---|
|
$ petalinux-build -c bbexample-lt

[INFO] successfully built bbexample-lt |
You have now successfully built the layer but you still need to include the binary produced into the kernel root file system
There are two options in order to do so
1. Edit your project
<BUILD_DIR>/
conf/local.conf file for YOCTO project
<plnx-proj-root>/meta-user/conf/petalinuxbsp.conf file for
PETALINUX PetaLinux project and add
Code Block |
---|
|
IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " bbexample-lt" |
2. Adding a package to an image via a
.bbappendYou may wish to add specific packages to specific images, which is generally viewed as better practice. We are using
core-image-minimal bitbake recipe for this tip by creating file
core-image-minimal.bbappend. This .bbappend file is extending the original core-image-minimal recipe in order to include the layer build output into the Linux root file system.
Code Block |
---|
|
recipes-core/images/core-image-minimal.bbappend |
core-image-minimal.bbappend file content
Code Block |
---|
|
IMAGE_INSTALL += " bbexample-lt" |
1. Rebuild your layer
Code Block |
---|
|
$ petalinux-build -c bbexample_lt -x cleansstate |
2. Rebuild your kernel
Code Block |
---|
|
$ petalinux-build -c kernel |
3. Start qemu
Code Block |
---|
|
$ petalinux-boot --qemu --kernel |
4. Log on qemu and start the application

Patching the Linux Kernel of a PetaLinux Project
1. Copy the patch to project file
<plnx-proj-root>/project-spec/meta-user/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-xlnx directory.
2. Modify project file
<plnx-proj-root>/project-spec/meta-user/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-xlnx_%.bbappend to use the patch file by adding the patch file name to the SRC_URI_append variable. If the variable does not exist in the file then add a new line with
Code Block |
---|
|
SRC_URI_append = " file://0001-linux-driver-fix.patch"
FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/${PN}:" |
3. Make sure the priority for the meta-user layer is 7 in the project file
<plnx-proj-root>/project-spec/meta-user/conf/layer.conf .
Note: Any patches in the project will not be applied to an external source tree for the Linux kernel or u-boot. The user should apply patches to the external source tree.
How to Modify inittab or getty in a PetaLinux Project
1. Create a sysvinit directory in meta-user layer as
Code Block |
---|
|
$ mkdir -p <plnx-proj-root>/project-spec/meta-user/recipes-core/sysvinit/sysvinit-inittab |
2. Create a
sysvinit-inittab_%.bbappend file and your own inittab file or your inittab patch
Code Block |
---|
|
$ vim <plnx-proj-root>/project-spec/meta-user/recipes-core/sysvinit/sysvinit-inittab_%.bbappend |
Code Block |
---|
|
SRC_URI_append = " file://inittab"
FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/${PN}:" |
Or

FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/${PN}:" |
How to Patch the FSBL in a PetaLinux Project
Note: This method can't be used for v2016.4 PetaLinux Projects. PetaLinux tools use externalsrc methodology to fetch the source code from XSDK. Yocto does not allow patching in this externalsrc mechanism. Hence this method can't be used in Yocto.1. Create a fsbl and files directory in meta-user layer as
Code Block |
---|
|
$ mkdir -p <plnx-proj-root>/project-spec/meta-user/recipes-bsp/fsbl/files
## From 2021.1 onwards
$ mkdir -p <plnx-proj-root>/project-spec/meta-user/recipes-bsp/embeddedsw/ |
2. Copy patch files to
<plnx-proj-root>/project-spec/meta-user/recipes-bsp/fsbl/files as
Code Block |
---|
|
$ cp 0001-FSBL.patch <plnx-proj-root>/project-spec/meta-user/recipes-bsp/fsbl/files
## From 2021.1 onwards
$ cp 0001-FSBL.patch <plnx-proj-root>/project-spec/meta-user/recipes-bsp/embeddedsw/files |
Note that patches should be generated based on the embeddedsw GIT repo which contains FSBL as the patches require the path into the repo to apply correctly.
3. Create a
fsbl_%.bbappend file and add below content
Code Block |
---|
|
$ vim <plnx-proj-root>/project-spec/meta-user/recipes-bsp/fsbl/fsbl_%.bbappend

How to Update psu_init Files in PetaLinux Project
Info |
---|
Note: PSU_INIT files are generated based on HDF or XSA parsing, Hence these files can't be patched on top of embedded_sw repo using Yocto SRC_URI variable. Alternatively we can update these files by editing <plnx-proj-root>/project-spec/hw-description/psu_init.c and copy to FSBL build workspace during do_compile_prepend bitbake task. |
1. Modify <plnx-proj-root>/project-spec/hw-description/psu_init.c file as per your requirement
2. Create a FSBL bbappend file under <plnx-proj-root>/project-spec/meta-user/recipes-bsp/embeddedsw/fsbl-firmware_%.bbappend and add below content to update psu_init.c changes to FSBL
Code Block |
---|
|
# For 2018.2 and below versions
do_compile_prepend(){
install -m 0644 ${TOPDIR}/../project-spec/hw-description/psu_init.c ${TOPDIR}/../components/plnx_workspace/fsbl/fsbl_hwproj/psu_init.c
}
# For 2018.3 and later versions we removed FSBL and PMUFW external workspace from <plnx-proj-root>/components/plnx_workspace directory
# to align Yocto patching mechanism. Hence we are copying the files to build workspace(${B})
# https://github.com/Xilinx/meta-xilinx-tools/blob/rel-v2018.3/classes/xsctbase.bbclass#L14

How to Add Pre-built Libraries in PetaLinux or Yocto Projects
1. Create an application/recipe and copy prebuilt library and header files with the following commands. Assuming prebuilt library name is libcpsample.so.1.0.1.
In
Petalinux PetaLinux Flow:
Code Block |
---|
|
$ petalinux-create -t apps --template install --name libcpsample --enable
$ cp libcpsample.so.1.0.1 <plnx-proj-root>/project-spec/meta-user/recipes-apps/libcpsample/files
$ cp cpsample.h <plnx-proj-root>/project-spec/meta-user/recipes-apps/libcpsample/files |
(or) You can use the below single command to achieve the above functionality.
Code Block |
---|
|
$ petalinux-create -t apps --template install --name libcpsample --enable --srcuri "<path-to-dir>/libcpsample.so.1.0.1 <path-to-dir>/cpsample.h>" |
In Yocto Flow:
Code Block |
---|
|
$ mkdir -p <layer-path>/recipes-apps/libcpsample/files
$ touch <layer-path>/recipes-apps/libcpsample/libcpsample.bb
$ cp libcpsample.so.1.0.1 <layer-path>/recipes-apps/libcpsample/files
