The OpenEmbedded build system should be able to run on Ubuntu 18.04 distribution/other compatible linux distribution with the following versions for Git, tar, and Python.
- Git 1.8.3.1 or greater
- tar 1.27 or greater
- Python 3.4.0 or greater
- Coreutils(E.g realpath)
Note: You should also have about 50 Gbytes of free disk space for building images.
The essential packages you need for a supported Ubuntu or Debian distribution are shown in the following command:
$ sudo apt-get install gawk wget git-core diffstat unzip texinfo gcc-multilib \
build-essential chrpath socat cpio python python3 python3-pip python3-pexpect \
xz-utils debianutils iputils-ping python3-git python3-jinja2 libegl1-mesa libsdl1.2-dev \
pylint3 xterm bmap-tools
$ sudo apt-get install git cmake autoconf texinfo openjdk-8-jdk openjdk-8-jre \
m4 libtool libtool-bin curl pkg-config lib32z1 doxygen
In order to use Yocto build system, the repo tool must be properly installed on the machine.
To install Repo make sure you have a /bin directory in your home directory and that it is included in your path
$ mkdir ~/bin
$ PATH=~/bin:$PATH
Download the repo tool and ensure that it is executable
$ curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
$ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
Note: it is also recommended to put credentials in ~/.netrc when interacting with repo.
A sample ~/.netrc file is illustrated below
machine code.rdkcentral.com login YOUR_USERNAME password YOUR_PASSWORD
To build, follow below instructions
$ mkdir <workspace dir>
$ cd <workspace dir>
$ repo init -u https://code.rdkcentral.com/r/manifests -b dunfell -m rdkb-extsrc.xml
$ repo sync -j`nproc` --no-clone-bundle
$ MACHINE=raspberrypi4-64-rdk-broadband source meta-cmf-raspberrypi/setup-environment
$ bitbake rdk-generic-broadband-image
Flashing Procedure
Following command can be used to flash the RPI image to sd card using linux machine . bmap tool should be available in linux
bzip2 -d <path to ImageName.wic.bz2>
sudo -E bmaptool copy --nobmap <path to ImageName.wic> <path to SD card space>
Example:
$ bzip2 -d rdk-generic-broadband-image-raspberrypi4-64-rdk-broadband.wic.bz2
$ sudo -E bmaptool copy --nobmap rdk-generic-broadband-image-raspberrypi4-64-rdk-broadband.wic /dev/sdb
Global CFLAGS
NOTE: This can be added in ccsp_common inc files. So, will be available for all ccsp components.
| CFLAGS_append_aarch64 = " -D_64BIT_ARCH_SUPPORT_ " |
|---|
By default, rbus is enabled in rpi4 64b build. For dbus enabling in rpi4 64b build, please follow the below steps,
Delete the below lines from below file's,
File path : ~/meta-cmf-raspberrypi/meta-rdk-broadband/recipes-ccsp/util/utopia.bbappend
touch \/nvram\/rbus_support ' ${D}${sysconfdir}/utopia/utopia_init.sh
File path : ~/meta-cmf-raspberrypi/recipes-core/dbus/dbus_%.bbappend
do_install_append_aarch64_broadband ()
{
# Removing dbus service in 64bit arch alone
rm ${D}${systemd_system_unitdir}/dbus.service

I followed the build instructions to build
raspberrypi4-64-rdk-broadbandmodelBut got failed with bitbake rdk-generic-broadband-image
### Error log
With error 'xhBackupRestoreServiceAPI', I also referred below link:
Zilker-SDK Yocto integration for RDKB RPI
It said 'Need to export the gradle and java bin path via recipe or ipcGenerator script'.
My java path is in /usr/bin/
and gradle path is in /opt/gradle/gradle-6.5.1/bin/gradle
(check cmd: whereis gradle)
And I added path with meta-cmf-broadband/recipes-iot/zilker-sdk/zilker-sdk_git.bb:
do_configure_prepend () { cd ${S} #cleaning the previous build of gradle export PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin + export PATH=$PATH:/opt/gradle/gradle-6.5.1/bin gradle cleanBut got same error with 'No SOURCES given to target: xhBackupRestoreServiceAPI'.
Is there any other PATH setting needed?

Hi Unknown User (john.pomeroy) ,
Could you please try a build from CMF latest release branch - rdkb-2022q2-dunfell.
We will check the dunfell build issue once from our end.
Thank you.

Hi Unknown User (ashish_spanidea)
python-is-python2 and some older pythonpackage no longer exists in ubuntu latest version , Could you share the python version and python3 version from your Host system.( command : python --version)If you need
python2to be the default for the python command you can do something like:sudo ln -s /bin/python2.7 /usr/bin/pythonUnknown User (agonzalezgarleano)
Hello, I have followed your instructions to build images, I have tried from 2022q1 to 2023q1, as licensed and unlicensed, the result has always been the same even for all versions of raspberry (3b+, 4b 32bit, 4b 64bit) I'm mainly interested in rpi4 64bit but I'm open to getting 3b+ working as well
I get the following:
bitbake rdk-generic-broadband-image

This appears to be resulting from git not supporting submodule--helper command in latest versions.
I've addressed this by the below patch in openembedded-core (also refer https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/commit/?id=0533edac277080e1bd130c14df0cbac61ba01a0c):

Tried following below procedure
Able to build the raspberry pi rdkb code, flash image to the sd card successfully but unable to see any logs on the console output. I confirm the baudrate and serial cable are intact.
Unable to access any content in the sdcard on windows machine.
How to know if the sdcard has the rootfs is flashed and do we need to configure to boot it up ? Any led indication/pattern that can help to know if the stack is up and running?
