Configuring and Building a Heterogenous System Using the Yocto Project

Explore the intricacies of configuring and building heterogeneous systems using the Yocto Project in this 40-minute conference talk by Mark Hatle from AMD. Gain insights into the complexities of developing software for diverse hardware architectures, and learn about System Device Tree Transformations. Discover the Yocto Project configuration process and the use of Zyng UltraScale+ Tools. Delve into the hardware flow and system software configuration, including Linux, Microblaze, and Baremetal config generation. Understand recipe implementations for both consumer and provider perspectives, and examine the system software build map. Conclude with valuable lessons learned and potential next steps in heterogeneous system development.
