NextThingCo C.H.I.P. Yocto meta layer examples.

This layer contains examples layers for the NextThingCo C.H.I.P. board.

This layer depends on the additional layers:

• meta-yocto
• meta-yocto-bsp
• meta-openembedded/meta-oe
• meta-openembedded/meta-python
• meta-openembedded/meta-networking
• meta-chip (from my GitHub https://github.com/myfreescalewebpage/meta-chip)
• Additional layers for some specific examples (see the README files of the example layers)

Layers

The following layers are available:

• meta-chip-example-java: JAVA OpenJDK with Hello World and DIO applications to test the installation and show how to drive the hardware.
• meta-chip-example-1wire: usage of 1-Wire devices. Demonstrate how to easily patch the kernel with fragments and the device tree with patch files.
• meta-chip-example-spidev: usage of SPI interface. Second example to demonstrate how to patch the kernel with fragments and the device tree with patch files.
• meta-chip-example-i2c: usage of I2C interfaces with i2c-tools.
• meta-chip-example-wifi: connection to a WiFi network.
• meta-chip-example-wifi-hotspot: creation of WiFi hotspot.

The wanted layer(s) are chosen in the bitbake layers configuration file.

Using

Clone sources:

git clone https://github.com/myfreescalewebpage/meta-chip-examples.git ~/yocto/meta-chip-examples

See the README files of the example layers for details on the examples.

See also the README file of the meta-chip layer (from my GitHub https://github.com/myfreescalewebpage/meta-chip) to check details about building and flashing images on the C.H.I.P. board.
