- All exercises are performed on an ARM Cortex-A8 (AM-335x) using freely accessible open source tools.
- Practical exercises on all topics enable you to directly apply what you just learned
- After the seminar, you have built an entire embedded real-time Linux with Yocto.
If you have to build an embedded Linux target - how do you begin? What do you need? How do you get a real-time system?
This embedded Linux training focuses on the setup and operation of an embedded Linux system with hard real-time requirements.
We start with the setup and function of the Yocto build system, generating an own layer with an own machine, image and distro. This provides a foundation for an own board support package (BSP).
Afterwards, the components of an embedded Linux system are highlighted in detail, from the ROM loader to the bootloader, the Linux kernel with device tree to the root filesystem.
Like in everyday project work, configurations are adjusted, patches created and extensions implemented. All this happens in the Yocto layer implemented before, so that the entirely adjusted system is available in the Yocto layer for further use.
Based on the system created, requirements like boot time optimization and over-the-air updates are discussed and explained.
The tools used are available for a wide range of architectures.
Only freely available open source software is used in the seminar.
Software developers and hardware developers
Profound ANSI-C programming knowledge; good basic knowledge of Linux is of advantage.
