TDA4VM: Yocto meta-ti bitbake variable set incorrect?

Thomas Dorsch
Expert 2601 points

Part Number: TDA4VM

Hi TI team,

looking through the meta-ti yocto layer, this grabbed my attention:

meta-ti-bsp/conf/machine/include/k3.inc:

MACHINE_ESSENTIAL_EXTRA_RDEPENDS += "kernel-image-image"

Is "kernel-image-image" korrekt here? For every machine configuration it is always "kernel-image-zimage".

If it is correct, could you please explain what it means?

Best regards,

Thomas

    Hi Thomas,

    "kernel-image-zimage" was a package that was used to generate the images for those older machines. The "kernel-image-image" package is needed for the k3 machines.

    I'm not entirely sure what the package did, but I assume it would build a zImage instead of an uncompressed image.

    If you change the variable to "kernel-image-zimage", you'll notice that the package is not provided, and bitbake will complain.
