Yocto Embedded Linux Development

Workshop


This course provides embedded system developers with skills in creating an embedded Linux system targeting AMD SoCs using the Yocto Project.

Setting up the Yocto environment, fetching the repositories, configuring the Linux components of the kernel and rootfs for the target embedded hardware system – these steps and building the Board Support Package (BSP) based on Yocto will be described and executed using the lab instructions.

The different open source flows are explained, using cross-references for the transition from PetaLinux to Yocto. As Yocto is based on software layers, you will learn to integrate the Yocto layers and customize the settings. Additionally, it will be easier for Yocto beginners to configure a Linux kernel, support the hardware peripherals quickly, and efficiently develop the embedded system with user applications. Furthermore, the basics of binding hardware peripherals with their respective driver support are discussed. After attending this workshop, you will be able to work with Yocto-based embedded Linux development.

Due to accompanying exercises, the course offers in-depth and practice-oriented training.
