2018-12-12Add Pican2 supportFabien Lahoudere
In order to make Pican 2 work, we : - add mcp2515.dto to the overlay list - add a variable to enable it in local.conf - create a udev rule to mount interface http://skpang.co.uk/catalog/pican2-canbus-board-for-raspberry-pi-23-p-1475.html Signed-off-by: Fabien Lahoudere <fabien.lahoudere@collabora.com>
2018-12-12extra-build-config.md: Update docs as per SDIMG_COMPRESSION removalIurii Lunev
Using SDIMG_COMPRESSION variable to choose compression type for produced images is deprecated. IMAGE_FSTYPES should be used instead. This patch removes any reference to SDIMG_COMPRESSION variable within the build documentation. Signed-off-by: Iurii Lunev <koolkhel@mail.ru>

2018-07-16sdcard_image-rpi.bbclass: drop KERNEL_INITRAMFS variableMartin Jansa
* use INITRAMFS_SYMLINK_NAME from new kernel-artifact-names.bbclass instead of KERNEL_INITRAMFS * the documentation says that KERNEL_INITRAMFS should be used to define extension of initramfs, but in linux-raspberrypi.inc it's defined only to 1 or empty based on INITRAMFS_IMAGE_BUNDLE variable and I don't see any code in meta-raspberry or oe-core which would use KERNEL_INITRAMFS to actualy name the initramfs artifact to create: ${DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE}/${KERNEL_IMAGETYPE}${KERNEL_INITRAMFS}-${MACHINE}.bin used in classes/sdcard_image-rpi.bbclass * also fix the assumption that there is -${MACHINE} suffix in: ${DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE}/${KERNEL_IMAGETYPE}${KERNEL_INITRAMFS}-${MACHINE}.bin because that's defined as KERNEL_IMAGE_SYMLINK_NAME and some DISTROs might use different value * this depends on oe-core changes which were merged today: http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?id=7d0ef0eaa1bfe97015a774c26f5791622e7e8b12 * this is the last piece of previous pull-request: https://github.com/agherzan/meta-raspberrypi/pull/159 Signed-off-by: Martin Jansa <Martin.Jansa@gmail.com>

2018-05-14linux-firmware: restore and merge bluez-firmwarePeter A. Bigot
The attempt to Raspbian updated firmware blobs in packages separate from linux-firmware introduced unresolvable conflicts with the standard linux-firmware roll-up package. Revert to using an augmented linux-firmware recipe that overrides and adds firmware from two Raspbian repositories that have up-to-date images. Closes #244 Signed-off-by: Peter A. Bigot <pab@pabigot.com>

2017-12-18docs: Do not force alabaster themePaul Barker
Sphinx will use the 'alabaster' theme by default when building locally. However, Read the Docs will use their own theme by default which suits their site better. By not specifying html_theme we allow both targets to use the appropriate default theme. Signed-off-by: Paul Barker <pbarker@toganlabs.com>
2017-12-18rpi-config: Add RPI_EXTRA_CONFIG optionPaul Barker

2017-09-24Support using u-boot with Image format for raspberrypi3-64Paul Barker
For raspberrypi3-64 we need to use the Image or Image.gz format with u-boot instead of the legacy uImage format. We also need to issue the 'booti' command to boot the kernel instead of 'bootm'. Signed-off-by: Paul Barker <pbarker@toganlabs.com>

2017-05-26docs: drop "Device tree support" sectionMirza Krak
We no longer provide any Linux kernel which do not have device-tree support and all machines setup KERNEL_DEVICETREE correctly. Signed-off-by: Mirza Krak <mirza.krak@endian.se>
2017-05-26docs: fix alignment of "code blocks"Mirza Krak
We provide a lot of variable examples as code blocks in the following format: some text: `Variable` or some test: `Variable` Which is not as pretty as (when converted to html/pdf): some text: Variable Converted all and hoppefully this will improve readability a bit.

2017-05-26docs: Remove incompatible table formatPaul Barker
Sadly sphinx doesn't support pipe tables in markdown at the minute. Let's use a bullet-point list instead. Signed-off-by: Paul Barker <pbarker@toganlabs.com>
2017-05-26docs: Include readme in sphinx documentationPaul Barker
This allows us to avoid having to duplicate any information in the readme into another documentation file. Signed-off-by: Paul Barker <pbarker@toganlabs.com>
2017-05-26docs: Initial sphinx configurationPaul Barker
This allows us to create documentation by running 'make html' or 'make latexpdf' in the docs directory. It depends on sphinx and the recommonmark python module (for parsing markdown files in sphinx). Creation of the PDF document requires a full LaTeX toolchain to be installed. Signed-off-by: Paul Barker <pbarker@toganlabs.com>
2017-05-26docs: Initial split of README into docs directoryPaul Barker
The top-level README document has got pretty unwieldy and so we need to switch to add some more structure to our documentation. The first step is to split out sub-sections of the README document into separate files in a new 'docs' directory. Whilst splitting up the README, we can also take the opportunity to tidy things up and fix a couple of typos. Signed-off-by: Paul Barker <pbarker@toganlabs.com>
