1.2.7. Miscellaneous BSP-Specific Recipe Files

You can find these files in the BSP Layer at:

     meta-bsp_name/recipes-bsp/*
                

This optional directory contains miscellaneous recipe files for the BSP. Most notably would be the formfactor files. For example, in the eMenlow BSP there is the formfactor_0.0.bbappend file, which is an append file used to augment the recipe that starts the build. Furthermore, there are machine-specific settings used during the build that are defined by the machconfig file further down in the directory. In the eMenlow example, the machconfig file supports the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) graphics driver:

     # Assume a USB mouse and keyboard are connected
     HAVE_TOUCHSCREEN=0
     HAVE_KEYBOARD=1
                

Note

If a BSP does not have a formfactor entry, defaults are established according to the formfactor configuration file that is installed by the main formfactor recipe meta/recipes-bsp/formfactor/formfactor_0.0.bb, which is found in the Source Directory.
