I want to use multilib feature in yocto to build some applications in a packagegroup recipe as only 32 bit. Meaning only 32 bit packages which are part of this packagegroup should be placed in image.
i can use bitbake lib32-packagegroup-name.bb to create 32 bit packages from this packagegroup, but the packages in this packagegroup are still building as 64 bit when i am trying to build image
bitbake core-sato-image.bb
Please let me know the changes required ?
Thanks
multilib-example.conf (from Github - OpenEmbedded):
#
# Sample multilib configuration which the user can either add in local.conf
# or specific in an configuration file like this, then require it.
#
# This configuration specifies an x86 64 bit machine as the main machine
# type and then adds a multilib in the "lib32" directory where those
# libraries are compiled with the "x86" tune.
#
MACHINE = "qemux86-64"
require conf/multilib.conf
MULTILIBS = "multilib:lib32"
DEFAULTTUNE_virtclass-multilib-lib32 = "x86"
You also need to activate support for 32-bit in the Kernel configuration.
Xilinx has also an example for creating a mulitlib image, which I consider a nice reference: http://www.wiki.xilinx.com/Creating+a+multilib+image+for+the+ZCU102+using+Yocto

I am trying to install a custom application on my Yocto build.
I currently use a Raspberry Pi 4 64 bit setup, for which I want PyQt5 to display an application directly on the frame buffer (so no windowing manager or desktop envoirement).
My current build with Yocto completes and boots on the Raspberry Pi. All the Qt5 libraries are also present in the root fs after the bitbake build.
Although, I'm having problems getting a custom layer, that adds a custom recipe with a custom application to also copy over to the destination root fs.
My custom layer is called 'meta-rpikms' with recipe 'recipes-kms-qt-app' which contains the application bb files. This files is called 'basicquick_0.1.bb' and has the following contents (this test application tries to add a EGLFS friendly Qt5 applicaiton, i'll try PyQt5 later):
SUMMARY = "Simple Qt5 Quick application"
#SECTION = "examples"
LICENSE = "MIT"
#PACKAGE_ARCH = "all"
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://${COMMON_LICENSE_DIR}/MIT;md5=0835ade698e0bcf8506ecda2f7b4f302"
DEPENDS += "qtbase qtdeclarative qtquickcontrols2"
SRCREV = "${AUTOREV}"
SRC_URI = "git://github.com/shigmas/BasicQuick.git"
S = "${WORKDIR}/git"
require recipes-qt/qt5/qt5.inc
do_install() {
install -d ${D}${bindir_native}
install -m 0755 BasicQuick ${D}${bindir_native}
}
FILES_${PN} += "${bindir_native}"
When I bitbake the custom layer of my meta-rpikms (called 'qt5-kms-rpi-image'), it does compute. When I take a look at the 'image_initial_manifest' file, my custom application does show up, suggesting that it does compile and try to install the application:
# This file was generated automatically and contains the packages
# passed on to the package manager in order to create the rootfs.
# Format:
# <package_type>,<package_name>
# where:
# <package_type> can be:
# 'mip' = must install package
# 'aop' = attempt only package
# 'mlp' = multilib package
# 'lgp' = language package
mip,basicquick
mip,bluez5
mip,bridge-utils
mip,hostapd
mip, bla bla bla etc etc etc.
And if I take a look in: '~/builds/pyqt5_try1/poky/rpi64-build/tmp/work/cortexa72-poky-linux/basicquick/0.1-r0', the expected files do show up. Also suggesting that it does atleast build the application. This makes the think that the 'install' arguments in my .bb file are pointing to the wrong folder.
In my basicquick_*.bb file this is to make the directory and install (copy) the built files:
install -d ${D}${bindir_native}
install -m 0755 BasicQuick ${D}${bindir_native}
I used the 'bitbake -e' command to trace the variable D and bindir_native:
D="/home/mats/builds/pyqt5_try1/poky/rpi64-build/tmp/work/raspberrypi4_64-poky-linux/qt5-kms-rpi-image/1.0-r0/image"
bindir_native="/usr/bin"
This seems okay at first glance, but when I manually follow the destination of the variable 'D', there is no 'images' folder created. I also wonder why everybody installs their custom applications on ${D}/usr/bin? Should this not be written to the build/tmp/deploy directory? Or am I missing a step here.
So, in this 'qt5-kms-rpi-image/1.0-r0' folder, there is a folder called 'deploy-qt5-kms-rpi-image-image-complete', which contains a rootfs. But there also is a rootfs folder in the 'qt5-kms-rpi-image/1.0-r0' folder. Both of these rootfs's do not contain any mention of my basicquick application, or a BasicQuick folder being created in /usr/bin.
Also, the rootfs found in the "build/tmp/deploy/images/raspberrypi4-64/qt5-kms-rpi-image-raspberrypi4-64.tar.bz2" does not contain any mention of the basicquick application being present in the filesystem.
Does anybody have any clues on what I am missing? Am I just not copying my files to the correct location? Or does the final deploy image end up somewhere else from where I am expecting it?
Thanks in advance.
With kind regards,
Mats de Waard
I new to Yocto so there are probably some mistakes and misunderstanding that I've had, I appreciate if you can help.
So, I want to add a new package (tar file) to my custom image.
I have followed steps and steps in manual and some online instructions. While running: "bitbake mylayer", the layer is built fine but I got this error while building the image, here is the log file:
DEBUG: Executing python function rootfs_deb_bad_recommendations

And here is mylayer.bb:

LICENSE = "CLOSE"
FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/files:"
SRC_URI += "file://mypackage.tar"
Also, I have included the package in conf/local.conf:
IMAGE_INSTALL_append += " mylayer"
So beside trying to figure out how to solve this problem, I also have some questions:
I have read some example of .bb, and they mentioned about LIC_FILES_CHKSUM. The mypackage.tar.gz is a package to install a platform for the device and I don't know much about the source code, so I don't know if it is necessary to include the license? Or how to know that this package need license to install?
In some answer I found online, there is one saying that I need to include PACKAGE_CLASSES ?= "package_deb" (they want to install the .deb file), so probably in my case I will need PACKAGE_CLASSES ?= "package.tar" right? I have tried to change variable, but it still not successful.
The mypackage.tar includes some deb files. If I could not install mypackage.tar, can I instead install these .deb files? Can I put it all in mylayer.bb?
Thank you in advanced, I have tried to study much documents as I could but I get so confused and there is huge amount of information to digest.
First, before answering your questions
Let me mention some best practices advice for you:
Rename the recipe to some significant name related to you compressed package.
Naming the recipe to mylayer confuses Yocto users, because there is the term layer also.
Regarding you recipe:
There is no need for FILESEXTRAPATHS because the recipe path is added automatically to Yocto paths.
FILESEXTRAPATHS it is required for .bbappend files.
You need to override the do_install task function, it does nothing by default.
do_install is the first essential task to make sure that your sources are included in the final image.
Beside that, when specifying a compressed source file into SRC_URI, yocto automatically decompresses it.
This is mentioned here.
So, here what your recipe should look like:
SUMMARY = ""
LICENSE = "CLOSED"
# Prevent Yocto from decompressing the file
SRC_URI = "file://mypackage.tar;unpack=0"
do_install(){
# Create the opt folder into the final image, ${D} is ${WORKDIR}/image
install -d ${D}/opt
# Copy the compressed file there; You can change permissions as you want
install -m 0755 ${WORKDIR}/mypackage.tar ${D}/opt
}
# Very important to specify what you installed in (do_install)
FILES_${PN} = "/opt/*"
Now, when you run IMAGE_INSTALL_append += " mylayer" your file will be installed.
Regarding your questions:
You mentioned that your compressed file contains .deb files, I assume that no license checksum is needed. Also, I understand that you may wanted to point to SRC_URI[md5sum] or other checksums for the full package. That is also not needed for local files, it is used to check for the integrity of online sources.
PACKAGE_CLASSES as mentioned here, is used by the system to know in what type the data should be packaged. By the data I mean the data that you installed with do_install. That data get packaged for according to your PACKAGE_CLASSES variable, for example, to deb file. And that is used, along side with all other recipes packages, to build the final rootfs.
Yes, if you are installing the tar file into the image and then unpack it to install all deb files, for example, with dpkg. You can use the bin_package class to do that, now the recipe must be changed for that reason:
Decompress the tar file and provide the deb files in the local files folder.
Add all deb files to SRC_URI
Inherit the bin_package class
Specify the files to be packaged.
Your recipe should look like this:
SUMMARY = ""
LICENSE = "CLOSED"
SRC_URI = "file://deb_file1.deb \
file://deb_file2.deb"
# No need to `do_install` , it is invoked by the (bin_package) class
FILES_${PN} = ""
Important:
About FILES_${PN}, you need to add all what the deb installed into the image folder
Example, if your deb file installs this:
/usr/bin/hello
/etc/hello.cfg
Specify them:
FILES_${PN} = "/usr/bin/*"
FILES_${PN} += "/etc/*"
Use * so if other deb files install files into the same folder as others it will include all.
Hopefully this will be a simple question to answer: I am trying to add a package to buildroot that requires the kernel BPF syscall feature to be enabled.
If the feature is enabled, everything works fine, if not, the build fails with a marginally unhelpful error. What i would like to do is perform a quick check in the .mk file to see if the feature is present and print out a slightly more user-friendly error if it is not.
I tried adding:
ifneq ($(CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL),y)
$(error Kernel feature CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL is required)
endif
But this always seems to trigger as i assume CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL does not exist in the package build scope. Is there a simple way to access to the kernel config list from a package build env?
Many thanks
It works the other way around: it is the "linux" package in Buildroot that ensures it enables the right options when a given package is enabled and requires some specific kernel features. See linux/linux.mk, which contains things like that:
$(if $(BR2_PACKAGE_KTAP),
$(call KCONFIG_ENABLE_OPT,CONFIG_DEBUG_FS,$(#D)/.config)
$(call KCONFIG_ENABLE_OPT,CONFIG_ENABLE_DEFAULT_TRACERS,$(#D)/.config)
$(call KCONFIG_ENABLE_OPT,CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS,$(#D)/.config)
$(call KCONFIG_ENABLE_OPT,CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER,$(#D)/.config))
This ensures that CONFIG_DEBUG_FS, CONFIG_ENABLE_DEFAULT_TRACERS, CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS and CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER are enabled in the kernel configuration when the ktap Buildroot is enabled.
Note that this mechanism may be changed in the near future in Buildroot, see the patch series at http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/buildroot/list/?series=168565.
First I have installed all the dependent packages including atk 2.18.
Then, I have added them to path.

But, when I try to run ./configure, I am getting the following error:
checking for ATK... no
configure: error: Package requirements (atk atk-bridge-2.0) were not met:
No package 'atk-bridge-2.0' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables ATK_CFLAGS
and ATK_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
atk 2.18 is cleary added in the PKG_CONFIG_PATH and also LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
So, I though atk-bridge-2.0 is separate and found the packag: at-spi2-atk and at-spi2-core. But, no atk-bridge-2.0 is installed.
Please help.
The atk-bridge-2.0 API is provided by at-spi2-atk, not by ATK.
Your build environment is fairly broken, and it seems you're installing each component into its own prefix. You shouldn't. Create a temporary build root, and add that to $PATH, $PKG_CONFIG_PATH, $LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and $XDG_DATA_DIRS. Then, use the same prefix for every component.
You should look at how jhbuild works.
How do I install Helm (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/helm) on Windows 7 (64-bit)?
(Update: I had posted a lot of error messages here, but I've moved them to my answer to not clutter up the question.)
Installation for Windows 64-bit:
I'm including error messages, for if you follow all the steps up to that point and then just try to install directly. This is a conglomeration of a bunch of ad-hoc steps from following many different posts. Any simplification would be appreciated!
Note: Do all work in directories without spaces. I'm doing all work in C:/PF; modify this to your directory.
Download MSYS2-x86_64 from https://msys2.github.io/ and install it. Cabal install cairo (or helm) will give something like:
Configuring cairo-0.13.1.0...
setup.exe: Missing dependencies on foreign libraries:
Missing C libraries: z, cairo, z, gobject-2.0, ffi, pixman-1, fontconfig,
expat, freetype, iconv, expat, freetype, z, bz2, harfbuzz, glib-2.0, intl,
ws2_32, ole32, winmm, shlwapi, intl, png16, z
Download C libraries. In MINGW64 (NOT MSYS2 - I had trouble with MSYS2 at random stages in the process), use the package manager:
pacman -Ss cairo
to search for the Cairo package. You'll find "mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-cairo", so install that:
pacman -S mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-cairo
*.pc files should have been added to C:\PF\msys64\mingw64\lib\pkgconfig and C:\PF\msys64\usr\lib\pkgconfig. (pkg-config needs to be able to find these files. It looks in PKG_CONFIG_PATH, which by default should have the lib/pkgconfig folder above. Moving the file here is easiest. See Can't install sdl2 via cabal) If you get
The pkg-config package ... version ... cannot be found
errors then check your *.pc files.
Repeat with other required libraries, like atk
pacman -S mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-atk
(I don't know the complete list, but error messages later on will let you know what to get.)
Get the development files for these libraries (as suggested by How to install cairo on Windows). Most of them are bundled up at http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win64/gtk+/2.22/. Unzip.
Copy files (.a, .dll.a) in lib to C:\PF\msys64\mingw64\lib. Copy the pkgconfig folder, which contains the .pc files.
Copy files in include to C:\PF\msys64\mingw64\include.
Add C:\PF\gtk+-2.22.1\bin to the path.
(2) and (3) might be redundant. I don't know - I did them both.
At this point you can probably do "cabal install cairo". (Warning: if your end goal is something else, you may not want to "cabal install" intermediate packages, see https://wiki.haskell.org/Cabal/Survival#Issue_.232_--_Not_installing_all_the_packages_in_one_go.)
See (4) for the syntax in specifying extra-include-dirs and extra-lib-dirs (but if you copied the files above this shouldn't be necessary),
Any time you get
Missing (or bad) header file
check to see you copied the *.h files to mingw64\include and/or add the include folder to the PATH. Use cabal install -v3 to get verbose error messages if the problem persists.
If you get something like
cairo-0.13.1.0: include-dirs: /mingw64/include/freetype2 is a relative path
which makes no sense (as there is nothing for it to be relative to). You can
make paths relative to the package database itself by using ${pkgroot}. (use
--force to override)
try --ghc-pkg-options="--force" (as mentioned at https://github.com/gtk2hs/gtk2hs/issues/139).
Get SDL. Otherwise you'll get
configure: error: *** SDL not found! Get SDL from www.libsdl.org.
If you already installed it, check it's in the path. If problem remains,
please send a mail to the address that appears in ./configure --version
indicating your platform, the version of configure script and the problem.
Failed to install SDL-0.6.5.1
Follow the instructions in (2) to get sdl/sdl2 libraries. (See instructions here Installing SDL on Windows for Haskell (GHC).)
The new version helm-0.7.1 requires sdl2, but there are other dependency issues with helm-0.7.1 as of writing. Download SDL from http://sourceforge.net/projects/msys2/files/REPOS/MINGW/x86_64/ (direct download link to newest version as of writing http://sourceforge.net/projects/msys2/files/REPOS/MINGW/x86_64/mingw-w64-x86_64-SDL-1.2.15-7-any.pkg.tar.xz.sig/download), unzip. "cabal install sdl" gives
* Missing (or bad) header file: SDL/SDL.h
* Missing C library: SDL
This problem can usually be solved by installing the system package that
provides this library (you may need the "-dev" version). If the library is
already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the flags
--extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where it is.
so we specify where the dirs are (change the name depending on where you extracted sdl to)
cabal install sdl --extra-include-dirs=C:/PF/sdl\include --extra-lib-dirs=C:/sdl/lib
If you got SDL2 (http://libsdl.org/download-2.0.php) (for a newer version of Helm): there is a fatal bug that hasn't been fixed in the release version. (If you don't fix it, cabal install -v3 things which depends on it will give error
winapifamily.h: No such file or directory
("winapifamily.h: No such file or directory" when compiling SDL in Code::Blocks) Download https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/raw-file/e217ed463f25/include/SDL_platform.h, replace the file in the include folder and in C:/PF/msys64/mingw64/include/SDL2.
Download gtk2hs from http://code.haskell.org/gtk2hs and run
the following
cd gtk2hs/tools
cabal install
cd ../glib
cabal install
cd ../gio
cabal install
cd ../pango
cabal install --ghc-pkg-options="--force"
(Maybe you have already installed glib and gio from before? I did this step because normal install of Pango caused an error for me (https://github.com/gtk2hs/gtk2hs/issues/110)
pango-0.13.1.0: include-dirs: /mingw64/include/freetype2 is a relative path
which makes no sense (as there is nothing for it to be relative to). You can
make paths relative to the package database itself by using ${pkgroot}. (use
--force to override)
Once the Helm developers get things updated you should be able to do "cabal install helm" but right now there seem to be dependency issues. For me, cabal automatically tries to install helm-0.4 (probably because 0.4 didn't give upper bounds on dependencies, while newer versions do. You could try "cabal unpack"ing and deleting the upper bounds...). Then
cabal unpack helm-0.4
Installing gives an error because "pure" got moved to Prelude. Open helm-0.4\src\FRP\Helm\Automaton.hs and change line 17:
import Prelude hiding (id, (.), pure)
Now
cabal install
Try to compile and run a program using Helm
(This is 0.4 - look on the website for a newer sample if you tried a newer Helm)

If you get an error about a missing .dll (sdl.dll), find it in a bin/ folder and add the folder to your PATH (or copy it to somewhere on your path).
