Building the BSP for R-Car Starter Kit Pro(M3N)
Build using script
- Directory Structure

- build
./build.sh
If the build completes successfully, all the necessary files are generated in a following directory:
./<target_board_name>/build/tmp/deploy/images/<target_board_name>
Build using manual steps
- Create a directory and switch to it
- Warning! Yocto builds require a lot of disk space (up to 100 GB). Make sure you have got enough before starting the build.
mkdir build cd build export WORK=`pwd`
- Clone basic Yocto layers:
cd $WORK git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky git clone git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded git clone git://git.linaro.org/openembedded/meta-linaro.git git clone git://github.com/renesas-rcar/meta-renesas
- If you use Kingfisher, below is also necessary.
git clone git://github.com/CogentEmbedded/meta-rcar.git
- Switch to proper branches/commits
cd $WORK/poky git checkout -b tmp 7e7ee662f5dea4d090293045f7498093322802cc cd $WORK/meta-openembedded git checkout -b tmp 352531015014d1957d6444d114f4451e241c4d23 cd $WORK/meta-linaro git checkout -b tmp 75dfb67bbb14a70cd47afda9726e2e1c76731885 cd $WORK/meta-renesas git checkout -b tmp ad3a8cfee5b6a6fab17cf1c6e5af851eaec75bd7
- If you use Kingfisher, below is also necessary.
cd $WORK/meta-rcar git checkout -b v3.21.0 remotes/origin/v3.21.0
- Another versions are not tested for compatibility.
- Legacy BSP instruction can be found here R-Car M3NSK Yocto Gen3 legacy
- Please get the proprietary package for R-Car M3N from the your company's distributer. And copy them to $WORK/proprietary folder.
- Populate meta-renesas with proprietary software packages.
export PKGS_DIR=$WORK/proprietary cd $WORK/meta-renesas sh meta-rcar-gen3/docs/sample/copyscript/copy_proprietary_softwares.sh -f $PKGS_DIR unset PKGS_DIR
- Setup build environment
cd $WORK source poky/oe-init-build-env $WORK/build
- Prepare default configuration files.
cp $WORK/meta-renesas/meta-rcar-gen3/docs/sample/conf/m3nulcb/poky-gcc/mmp/*.conf ./conf/ cd $WORK/build cp conf/local-wayland.conf conf/local.conf
- If you use Kingfisher, add layer meta-rcar.
bitbake-layers add-layer ../meta-rcar/meta-rcar-gen3-adas
- Start the build
bitbake core-image-weston
