Embedded Linux Development with Yocto Project
More and more FPGA/SoC systems use Linux as the operating system of choice. Hardware developers are nowadays required to adapt and create a custom Linux system to meet the system specifications. Creating a Linux system from scratch can be a time-consuming task. In the past developers often used the top-down approach, where they used an already available Linux system and removed parts they did not need, and added new functionality. This approach has the disadvantage that the designer never really can be sure about the content of the image which could lead to licensing issues. This has changed with the introduction of the Yocto Project build system, which allows you to easily create your customized Linux system from the ground up.
This way we always know what components are included in the final image. The Yocto Project layer model allows us to easily compile a Linux system for different hardware platforms and makes it simple to integrate image components of third-party sources.
In this training, participants will learn how to design a Linux system using the Yocto Project tools. A Xilinx® Zynq® based development board is used as the hardware platform for this training. It will be discussed how board support packages and meta-layers are structured and included in the Yocto Project build. After the training, attendees are able to design custom Linux Systems with the Yocto Project tool chain.
Due to accompanying exercises, the course offers in-depth and practice-oriented training. Attendees of the online live course will do the practical exercises in the afternoon on their own.

FAQ
01. Can you help me with reserving the room?
If you need a room for a face-to-face course, please contact us. We will support you in choosing suitable accommodation.
02. What times in the day do courses start and end?
Our face-to-face courses start daily at 9 a.m. (CET/CEST) and end at 5 p.m., with two coffee breaks and an extended lunch break. The total course time per day is 6 hours. For online courses, the start is also at 9 a.m. (CET/CEST), but they end at 2:30 p.m.. The total course time per day is 4 and a half hours plus breaks.
03. Are course materials provided?
All participants of paid courses will receive English training materials in electronic or paper form.
04. Will I receive a course certificate?
Each participant of a paid PLC2 course will receive a signed certificate of attendance at the end of the course.
05. Can I pay with Training Credits (TCs)?
Of course, you can also pay for your training using your available TCs (Training Credits). We will then invoice AMD directly. If you do not have sufficient credit for the booked training, the difference can be paid for with an additional payment. The additional charge will be invoiced directly to you.
06. What are the options for payment?
You can pay us via bank transfer or with TCs (Training Credits). Unfortunately, payment via debit, credit card, or PayPal is not possible.
07. What is the deadline for payment?
Payment is due 14 days after the invoice date, without deduction. Please transfer the amount within that time.
08. What are the options for cancelling?
You can cancel free of charge up to 14 days before the course starts. If you have to cancel at short notice due to illness or other reasons, you have the option of adding a substitute participant or of making up the course at a later date (within 6 months).
09. When will I receive a firm commitment as to whether the course will take place?
You will receive binding confirmation 7 days before the course begins as to whether it will go ahead.
10. How many participants are required for a course to be given/what is the minimum number of participants?
We generally offer courses for 5 or more people. That means that if you would like to book a course at your premises, you need 5 people to register or need to pay the amount for 5 participants, even if fewer people attend.
11. Can I book a course that is given in English?
If you need a course that is officially advertised as given in German to be given in English, please contact us. We will try to make that possible for you.
12. What language is the course in?
Our webinars and online courses are conducted in English. All our F2F training courses are generally conducted in German. Feel free to contact us if you need face-to-face training in English or online training in German.
