Yocto Build Setup

All RPi based RDK images with the latest features are from the rdk-next branch

Initializing the Build Environment

To build RDK images from rdk-next branch, follow the below build procedure

mkdir workspace
cd workspace

# initialize the manifest with repo tool
repo init -u https://code.rdkcentral.com/r/manifests -b rdk-next -m rdkv-nosrc.xml

repo sync -j `nproc` --no-clone-bundle --no-tags

mkdir workspace
cd workspace

# initialize the manifest with repo tool
repo init -u https://code.rdkcentral.com/r/manifests -b rdk-next -m rdkv-extsrc.xml

repo sync -j `nproc` --no-clone-bundle --no-tags

mkdir workspace
cd workspace

# initialize the manifest with repo tool
repo init -u https://code.rdkcentral.com/r/manifests -b rdk-dev-2009 -m rdkv-nosrc.xml

repo sync -j `nproc` --no-clone-bundle --no-tags

# REFPLTV-723: fix for org.rdk.Wifi.1.saveSSID proper result
git clone http://code.rdkcentral.com/r/rdk/components/generic/netsrvmgr -b rdk-next rdk/components/generic/netsrvmgr
(cd rdk/components/generic/netsrvmgr; git fetch "https://code.rdkcentral.com/r/rdk/components/generic/netsrvmgr" refs/changes/93/50893/1 && git cherry-pick FETCH_HEAD)

Image build

Link to check possible RDK images on RPi - https://code.rdkcentral.com/r/plugins/gitiles/components/generic/rdk-oe/meta-cmf-raspberrypi/+/refs/heads/rdk-next/recipes-core/images/

MACHINE=raspberrypi-rdk-mc source meta-cmf-raspberrypi/setup-environment

# both rdk-generic-mediaclient-image and rdk-generic-mediaclient-wpe-image are same now
bitbake rdk-generic-mediaclient-image

MACHINE=raspberrypi-rdk-mc source meta-cmf-raspberrypi/setup-environment

bitbake rdk-generic-mediaclient-wpe-tdk-image

MACHINE=raspberrypi-rdk-hybrid source meta-cmf-raspberrypi/setup-environment

#both rdk-generic-hybrid-image and rdk-generic-hybrid-wpe-image are same now
bitbake rdk-generic-hybrid-image

MACHINE=raspberrypi-rdk-hybrid source meta-cmf-raspberrypi/setup-environment

bitbake rdk-generic-hybrid-wpe-tdk-image

Flashing Procedure

The image file will be generated under build-<MACHINE>/tmp/deploy/images/<MACHINE> directory

# Insert the micro SD card and mention the card's device file name
# input file (if) is the image file to flash and the output file (of) is the card's device file name
sudo dd if=rdk-generic-hybrid-wpe-image-raspberrypi-rdk-hybrid.rpi-sdimg of=/dev/<sd file> bs=4M
