Embedded computers have become very complex since they are now called upon to solve a range of advanced problems that humans did by themselves before. This added complexity means embedded systems now need very complex operating systems in order to work as required.
The Yocto Project is now the effective standard for most embedded systems around the world due to its robustness, high configuration, high availability of software packages, and the ability to support several hardware platforms with common mechanisms so that developers may deploy their systems with minor effort even on different machines.
Yocto Project Customization for Linux is not yet another book talking about the Yocto Project, but it shows how the Yocto Build system works. Developers can easily (and quickly) move from the demo Yocto Project distributions that silicon vendors relay for their development kits to their final product. This book is a practical guide for embedded developers teaching them everything they need to know about how to write new recipes or how to customize existing ones, by explaining the Build System internals and to manage it into their ongoing projects.
You Will Learn:
- To understand Yocto Project internals and how Yocto Project tools work
- How to define a new meta layer or a new machine/distro in order to generate a custom Yocto Project image for their embedded system
- To generate a new Yocto Project recipe for your software, or to alter an already existing recipe in order to fit your needs
- How to update one or more packages on their running Yocto Project system
- How to optimize and effectively manage the Yocto Build System
Who is it for:
This is for embedded developers as well as Linux users who want to know more how to use Yocto.
