- Poky
- ====
- Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged
- build system and development environment. It features support for building
- customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images
- featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports
- cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a
- standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.
- Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports
- is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added
- in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.
- As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as
- BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information
- e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.
- The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a
- reference manual which can be found at:
- http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
- OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions
- of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with
- DISTRO = "") and contains only emulated machine support.
- For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website:
- http://www.openembedded.org/
- Where to Send Patches
- =====================
- As Poky is an integration repository, patches against the various components
- should be sent to their respective upstreams.
- bitbake:
- bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
- meta-yocto:
- poky@yoctoproject.org
- Most everything else should be sent to the OpenEmbedded Core mailing list. If
- in doubt, check the oe-core git repository for the content you intend to modify.
- Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current oe-core git
- repository.
- openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org
- Note: The scripts directory should be treated with extra care as it is a mix
- of oe-core and poky-specific files.
