## Description

This is the general hardware specific BSP overlay for the RaspberryPi device.

More information can be found at: <http://www.raspberrypi.org/> (Official Site)

The core BSP part of meta-raspberrypi should work with different
OpenEmbedded/Yocto distributions and layer stacks, such as:

* Distro-less (only with OE-Core).
* Angstrom.
* Yocto/Poky (main focus of testing).

## Dependencies

This layer depends on:

* URI: git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
  * branch: master
  * revision: HEAD

* URI: git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded
  * layers: meta-oe, meta-multimedia, meta-networking, meta-python
  * branch: master
  * revision: HEAD

## Quick Start

1. source poky/oe-init-build-env rpi-build
2. Add this layer to bblayers.conf and the dependencies above
3. Set MACHINE in local.conf to one of the supported boards
4. bitbake core-image-base
5. dd to a SD card the generated sdimg file (use xzcat if rpi-sdimg.xz is used)
6. Boot your RPI.

## Quick Start with kas

1. Install kas build tool from PyPi (sudo pip3 install kas)
2. kas build meta-raspberrypi/kas-poky-rpi.yml
3. dd to a SD card the generated sdimg file (use xzcat if rpi-sdimg.xz is used)
4. Boot your RPI.

To adjust the build configuration with specific options (I2C, SPI, ...), simply add
a section as follows:

```
local_conf_header:
  rpi-specific: |
    ENABLE_I2C = "1"
    RPI_EXTRA_CONFIG = "dtoverlay=pi3-disable-bt"
```

To configure the machine, you have to update the `machine` variable.
And the same for the `distro`.
