Patches
Separate patch files for the open-source OE layers are no longer maintained. Instead, mirrors of the OE layers used by RDK are maintained at CMF, containing rdk branches that contain the patches already applied. The RDK build scripts and recipes now all use these instead of the previous patches.
A detailed changelog since the last release rdkb-2022q4-dunfell can be found here. (updated on 9th August)
Getting the code
Note:
- The manifests repository is only available to RDK licensees.
- Opensource versions of the RDKB manifests are available from the rdkcmf/manifests repository rdkb-2023q2-dunfell branch
mkdir <workspace dir>
cd <workspace dir>
repo init -u https://code.rdkcentral.com/r/rdkcmf/manifests -m <manifest.xml> -b rdkb-2023q2-dunfell
repo sync --no-clone-bundle --no-tags
- The -m <manifest.xml> in the sequence above is important. If this is not specified, you will get an RDK-V tree by default.
- The -b rdkb-2023q2-dunfell in the build sequence above specifies the branch to use.
- If you omit the -b rdkb-2023q2-dunfell entirely, you will get the HEAD of each component
