Overview of this book

Yocto Project is turning out to be the best integration framework for creating reliable embedded Linux projects. It has the edge over other frameworks because of its features such as less development time and improved reliability and robustness.

The book then moves on to in-depth explanations of Poky and BitBake. It also includes some practical use cases for building a Linux subsystem project using Yocto Project tools available for embedded Linux. The book also covers topics such as SDK, recipetool, and others. By the end of the book, you will have learned how to generate and run an image for real hardware boards and will have gained hands-on experience at building efficient Linux systems using Yocto Project.

Chapter 13. Achieving GPL Compliance

In this chapter, we will see how we can ensure open source license compliance and how we can use Poky to provide the artifacts needed,such as the source code, licensing text, and the list of derivative work. This is critical for most products that are introduced into the market nowadays, as open source code needs to live side by side with proprietary code.
