BitBake recipes for various vkboards

1. create source dir ¹²

   mkdir -p $HOME/work/yocto/rz<x>_vlp_v<M>.<m>.<mod>
   cd $HOME/work/yocto/rz<x>_vlp_v<M>.<m>.<mod>

2. download source archives

Make sure that the following packages have been downloaded from the official website https://www.renesas.com

For RZ/V Verified Linux Package [5.10-CIP] V3.0.6 these are:

RTK0EF0045Z0024AZJ-v3.0.6.zip
RTK0EF0045Z13001ZJ-v1.2.2_EN.zip
RTK0EF0045Z15001ZJ-v1.2.2_EN.zip
r11an0549ej0750-rzv2l-drpai-sp.zip
r11an0845ej0110-rzv2l-opencv-accelerator-sp.zip
r01an7254ej0210_rzv-multi-os-pkg.zip
oss_pkg_rzv_v3.0.6.7z

For RZ/G Verified Linux Package [5.10-CIP] V3.0.6 these are:

RTK0EF0045Z0021AZJ-v3.0.6-update3.zip,
RTK0EF0045Z13001ZJ-v1.2.2_EN.zip,
RTK0EF0045Z15001ZJ-v1.2.2_EN.zip,
r01an5869ej0210-rzg-multi-os-pkg.zip,
oss_pkg_rzg_v3.0.6.7z

3. create working dir ²

   mkdir -p $HOME/work/yocto/vlp_v<M>.<m>.<mod>/yocto
   cd $HOME/work/yocto/vlp_v<M>.<m>.<mod>/yocto

4. get helper utils

   wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Vekatech/yocto/main/create_yocto_src.sh
   wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Vekatech/yocto/main/run_docker
   

5. make utils executable

   chmod a+x create_yocto_src.sh
   chmod a+x run_docker

6. modify "create_yocto_src.sh" by editing the following paths ¹²³

   PKGKDIR=$HOME/work/yocto/rz<x>_vlp_v<M>.<m>.<mod> - directory with source archives
   WORKSPACE=$(pwd)                                  - working path
   YOCTO_HOME="${WORKSPACE}/v<M>.<m>.<mod>-<x>2l"    - yocto dir
   BUILD_DIR="<board>"                               - build dir 
   

   !This step is mandatory only if you have renamed the source dir or working dir. ! If you have kept the original names for source dir and working dir, no edits are necessary. The script automatically adjusts the paths based on the location of create_yocto_src.sh.

7. create yocto sources ³

   ./create_yocto_src.sh <board>

8. start docker (optional)

   ./run_docker

9. go to YOCTO_HOME ¹²

   cd v<M>.<m>.<mod>-<x>2l
   

10. TEMPLATECONF=$PWD/meta-vkboards/meta-vk<x>2l/docs/template/conf ¹

11. source poky/oe-init-build-env <board> ³

12. adjust layers

    bitbake-layers add-layer ../meta-xxx
    

13. start a build ³⁴

    MACHINE=<board> bitbake core-image-<target>
