The intel-linux kernel also has a branch with the preempt-rt -patches applied, providing a preempt-rt kernel with no additional work. - -Added QEMU support. -------------------- -We now build several virtio drivers into the kernel by default, and -have qemuboot.conf files for intel-corei7-64 and intel-core2-32 -targets. This allows one to do basic testing on meta-intel images -without having to use hardware. The virtio drivers are added via -KERNEL_FEATURES_INTEL_COMMON. This prevents them from being added to -custom kernels by default. They can be removed by adding the -following to a conf or kernel bbappend file: - KERNEL_FEATURES_INTEL_COMMON_remove = “cfg/virtio.scc” -OVMF firmware is also built and can be used in order to emulate a UEFI -environment. A full runqemu command line for intel-corei7-64 could look -like this: - runqemu core-image-minimal intel-corei7-64 wic ovmf - -Musl support ------------- -Meta-intel is now compatible with the musl C library. You can specify musl -As your C library by adding the following to your local.conf: - TCLIBC = “musl” -Note: there is a known failure with DPDK. - -X32 support ------------ -The meta-intel layer can now build with the x32 tune settings in a multi-lib -setting, it will not work in as the primary MACHINE tune as the bootloader needs -to be built as a 64bit binary. The setup for this would be as follows: - require conf/multilib.conf - MULTILIBS = "multilib:libx32 - DEFAULTTUNE_virtclass-multilib-libx32 = "corei7-64-x32" |
