Moving on to the Yocto Project, we have recipes available for every kernel version available inside the BSP support for each supported board, and recipes for kernel modules that are built outside the Linux kernel source tree.
The Atmel SAMA5D3-Xplained board uses the linux-yocto-custom
kernel. This is defined inside the conf/machine/sama5d3-xplained.conf
machine configuration file using the PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel
variable. No PREFERRED_VERSION
is mentioned, so the latest version is preferred; in this case, we are talking about the linux-yocto-custom_3.10.bb
recipe.
The linux-yocto-custom_3.10.bb
recipe fetches the kernel sources available inside Linux Torvalds' git
repository. After a quick look at the sources once the do_fetch
task is finished, it can be observed that the Atmel repository was, in fact, fetched. The answer is available inside the linux-yocto-custom_3.10.bbappend
file, which offers another SR_URI
location. Other useful information you...
