IMX Yocto Usage Record
====
# Pre Setup
:::danger
注意事項:
1. 編譯Yocto Project 官方文件提到 Linux Host 機器,硬碟空間至少要 ==120 GB==
2. 使用虛擬機(VM)建構硬碟/linux Host時,建議使用==固定大小==,不要使用動態分配
3. 建議使用 Ubuntu 18.04 or 相同的host linux 版本

# install host packages
```bash=
sudo apt-get install gawk wget git-core diffstat unzip texinfo gcc-multilib \
build-essential chrpath socat cpio python python3 python3-pip python3-pexpect \
xz-utils debianutils iputils-ping python3-git python3-jinja2 libegl1-mesa libsdl1.2-dev \

```
# Set up Git
```bash=
git config --global user.name "<Your Name>"
git config --global user.email "<Your Email>"
git config --list
```
# Setting up the repo utility
- Create a bin folder in the home directory.
```bash=
mkdir ~/bin
curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
```
- Add the following line to the .bashrc file to ensure that the ~/bin folder is in your PATH variable.
```bash=
export PATH=~/bin:$PATH > ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
```
:::info
:spiral_note_pad:
Repo is a tool built on top of Git. Repo helps manage many Git repositories, does the uploads to revision control systems, and automates parts of the development workflow. Repo is not meant to replace Git, only to make it easier to work with Git. The repo command is an executable Python script that you can put anywhere in your path.

# Use Yocto Project to Build imx-linux
## Download resource (Use repo utility)
```bash=
mkdir imx-yocto-bsp
cd imx-yocto-bsp
repo init -u https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/imx-manifest -b imx-linux-hardknott -m imx-5.10.52-2.1.0.xml
repo sync
```
## To create one new build environment
:::success
Syntax:
```shell
DISTRO=<distro name> MACHINE=<machine name> source imx-setup-release.sh -b <build dir>
```
:::
- imx8mp-lpddr4-evk setting
```bash=
DISTRO=fsl-imx-xwayland MACHINE=imx8mp-lpddr4-evk source imx-setup-release.sh -b imx8mp_build_xwayland
```
- imx8mmevk setting
```bash=
DISTRO=fsl-imx-xwayland MACHINE=imx8mmevk source imx-setup-release.sh -b imx8mmevk_build_xwayland
```

# To continue an exist build environment
> If a new terminal window is opened or the machine is rebooted after a build directory is set up, the setup environment script should
be used to set up the environment variables and run a build again. The full imx-setup-release.sh is not needed.
```shell=
cd ${BSP_HOME}
source setup-environment ${build-dir}
```
