Subject: Yocto migration meta-barebox -> walnascar

Message-ID: <aVzVyOKQ-mc4LLBd@hephaistos> (raw)

Dear barebox people,
Happy New Year everybody :-)

I used up until scarthgap https://github.com/menschel-d/meta-barebox

In our meta layer we have config in distro conf like this:

ABREBOX_CONFIG:beaglebone-yocto = "omap_defconfig"
BAREBOX_CONFIG:pn-barebox-pbl:beaglebone-yocto = "am335x_mlo_defconfig"
BAREBOX_IMAGE_SRC:beaglebone-yocto = "images/barebox-am33xx-beaglebone.img"
BAREBOX_IMAGE_SRC:pn-barebox-pbl:beaglebone-yocto = "images/barebox-am33xx-beaglebone-mlo.img"
RDEPENDS:barebox:beaglebone-yocto += "barebox-pbl"
COMPATIBLE_MACHINE:pn-barebox:beaglebone-yocto = "beaglebone-yocto"
COMPATIBLE_MACHINE:pn-barebox-pbl:beaglebone-yocto = "beaglebone-yocto"
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/bootloader = "barebox"

And a append recipe mainly with patches creating our custom
configuration.

Now I learned, barebox went into openembedded-core, this is great news!

I ditched the meta-barebox, tried my best, needed to remove alle configs
regarding "-pbl" and compiled:
ERROR: Nothing RPROVIDES 'barebox-pbl'
 (but /home/konsti/Melitta/scarthgap/meta/recipes-bsp/barebox/barebox.bb
 RDEPENDS on or otherwise requires it)



Now I get several ~580kB img files in the deployment images directory,
"ours" seems to be barebox-am33xx-beaglebone.img. File size is plausible
for the ex barebox.bin and strings suggest our insidem2m stuff to
boot/tftp/nfs landed up in it.

Where is the MLO part? Is barebox-am33xx-beaglebone.img the 1:1
barebox.bin equivalent?

We are used to create a partition table, first partition is vfat type
0x0c, MLO and barebox.bin are put there, works.

Kind Regards
Konstantin Kletschke
