How to cross-compile with the Distribution Package

Applicable for STM32MP13x lines, STM32MP15x lines

1. Article purpose[edit source]

This article provides simple examples for the Distribution Package of the OpenSTLinux distribution, that illustrate the cross-compilation with the devtool and BitBake tools:

  • modification with Linux® Kernel (configuration, device tree, driver, ...)
  • modification of an external in-tree Linux Kernel module
  • modification of U-Boot
  • modification of TF-A
  • addition of software

These examples also show how to deploy the results of the cross-compilation on the target, through a network connection to the host machine.


Info white.png Information
All the examples described on this page use devtool and/or bitbake from OpenEmbededded, see OpenEmbedded - devtool and BitBake cheat sheet for more information.
Info white.png Information
There are many ways to achieve the same result; this article aims to provide at least one solution per example. You have the liberty to explore other methods that are better adapted to your development constraints.

2. Prerequisites[edit source]

The prerequisites from Installing the OpenSTLinux distribution must be executed.

The board and the host machine are connected through an Ethernet link, and a remote terminal program is started on the host machine: see How to get Terminal.

The target is started, and its IP address (<board ip address>) is known.

3. Modification with kernel[edit source]

3.1. Preamble[edit source]

To start modification with a module, you need to initialize your Distribution Package environment.

 cd <working directory path of distribution>
 DISTRO=openstlinux-weston MACHINE=stm32mp1 source layers/meta-st/scripts/envsetup.sh

You are now in the build directory, identified by <build dir> in the following paragraphs.

Initialize devtool for kernel component:

 devtool modify virtual/kernel
NOTE: Starting bitbake server...
NOTE: Creating workspace layer in /mnt/internal_storage/oetest/oe_openstlinux_kirkstone/build-openstlinuxweston-stm32mp1/workspace
NOTE: Enabling workspace layer in bblayers.conf
Parsing recipes: 100% |########################################################################################| Time: 0:00:54
Parsing of 2401 .bb files complete (0 cached, 2401 parsed). 3282 targets, 88 skipped, 0 masked, 0 errors.
NOTE: Mapping virtual/kernel to linux-stm32mp
NOTE: Resolving any missing task queue dependencies
...
Info white.png Information
For the case of virtual/<something> component, you need to get the name of mapping between virtual component and associated recipe. In this example, the name of kernel recipe is indicated in the trace, but you can also get it by calling devtool status

A minority of devtool command supports the virtual/<something> component, like devtool modify, it is why you need to get the recipe name associated to virtual/component.
In this example, the name of kernel recipe is indicated in the trace (linux-stm32mp)

Info white.png Information
The source code of kernel is located on <build dir>/workspace/sources. You can change the path where the source code is extracted by customizing the devtool modify command
Info white.png Information
For all the work around the kernel, we strongly encourage some usage for deploying the binaries on board

The difference of usage comes from the number of files to deploy on board. When there is only one or two files to put on board, the easiest way to do it is to deploy only the desired files .

3.2. Modifying kernel configuration[edit source]

This simple example modifies the kernel configuration via menuconfig to add the support of new USB hardware, here a RTL8192CU (WIFI USB key).

  • Verify if the new USB hardware is already configured on the kernel by verifying at runtime if configuration is present
 zcat /proc/config.gz | grep RTL8192CU
# CONFIG_RTL8192CU is not set
  • Start the Linux kernel configuration menu
 bitbake virtual/kernel -c menuconfig
  • Navigate to "Device Drivers" -> "Network device support" -> "Wireless LAN" -> "Realtek devices" -> "Realtek rtlwifi family of devices"
    • select "Realtek RTL8192CU/RTL8188CU USB Wireless Network Adapter"
    • exit and save the new configuration
  • Check that the configuration file (.config) has been modified
 grep -i CONFIG_RTL8192CU <build dir>/workspace/sources/<name of kernel recipe>/.config.new
CONFIG_RTL8192CU=m
  • Cross-compile the Linux kernel
 bitbake virtual/kernel
  • Update the Linux kernel image on board
 scp <build dir>/tmp-glibc/deploy/images/<machine name>/kernel/uImage root@<board ip address>:/boot
 scp <build dir>/tmp-glibc/deploy/images/<machine name>/kernel/modules-stripped-stm32mp1.tgz root@<board ip address>:/tmp
 ssh root@<board ip address> tar xf /tmp/modules-stripped-stm32mp1.tgz -C /
  • Reboot the board
 cd /boot; sync; systemctl reboot
  • Verify if the kernel configuration contains the new configuration
 zcat /proc/config.gz | grep RTL8192CU
CONFIG_RTL8192CU=m

3.3. Modifying the Linux kernel device tree[edit source]

Info white.png Information
The example given below is associated with the STM32MP15 Evaluation board, but the method is independent of the board.

This simple example modifies the default status of a user LED.

  • With the board started; check that the user LED (LD3) is disabled
  • Go to the <build dir>/workspace/sources/<name of kernel recipe>/ directory
 cd <build dir>/workspace/sources/<name of kernel recipe>/
  • Edit the arch/arm/boot/dts/stm32mp15xx-edx.dtsi Device Tree Source file for evaluation board or

Edit the arch/arm/boot/dts/stm32mp15xx-dkx.dtsi" Device Tree Source file for discovery board

  • modify led node for adding green ledChange the status of the "stm32mp:green:user" led to "okay", and set its default state to "on"
	led {
		compatible = "gpio-leds";

		led-blue {
			label = "heartbeat";
			gpios = <......>;
			linux,default-trigger = "heartbeat";
			default-state = "off";

};

		led-green {
			label = "stm32mp:green:user";
			gpios = <&gpioa 14 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
			default-state = "on";

			status = "okay";
		};
	};
  • Go to the build directory
 cd <build dir>
  • Generate the device tree blobs (*.dtb)
 bitbake virtual/kernel -C compile
Info white.png Information
we use here bitbake command instead of devtool build because the build makes compile, compile_kernemodules and install commands whereas we only need only compile command to generate the kernel image and the device tree
  • Update the device tree blobs on the board
 scp <build dir>/tmp-glibc/deploy/images/<machine name>/*.dtb root@<board ip address>:/boot
Info white.png Information
If the /boot mounting point doesn't exist yet, please see how to create a mounting point
  • Reboot the board
 cd /boot; sync; systemctl reboot
  • Check that the user LED (LD3) is enabled (green)

3.4. Modifying a built-in Linux kernel device driver[edit source]

This simple example adds unconditional log information when the display driver is probed.

  • Check that there is no log information when the display driver is probed
 dmesg | grep -i stm_drm_platform_probe

  • Go to the <build dir>/workspace/sources/<name of kernel recipe>/
 cd <build dir>/workspace/sources/<name of kernel recipe>/
  • Edit the ./drivers/gpu/drm/stm/drv.c source file
  • Add a log information in the stm_drm_platform_probe function
static int stm_drm_platform_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
{
	struct device *dev = &pdev->dev;
	struct drm_device *ddev;
	int ret;
	[...]

	DRM_INFO("Simple example - %s\n", __func__);

	return 0;
	[...]
}
  • Go to the build directory
 cd <build dir>
  • Cross-compile the Linux kernel
 bitbake virtual/kernel -C compile
  • Update the Linux kernel image on board
 scp <build dir>/tmp-glibc/deploy/images/<machine name>/kernel/uImage root@<board ip address>:/boot
Info white.png Information
If the /boot mounting point doesn't exist yet, please see how to create a mounting point


  • Reboot the board
 cd /boot; sync; systemctl reboot
  • Check that there is now log information when the display driver is probed
 dmesg | grep -i stm_drm_platform_probe
[    5.005833] [drm] Simple example - stm_drm_platform_probe

3.5. Modifying/adding an external Linux kernel module[edit source]

Most device drivers (modules) in the Linux kernel can be compiled either into the kernel itself (built-in/internal module) or as Loadable Kernel Modules (LKM/external module) that need to be placed in the root file system under the /lib/modules directory. An external module can be in-tree (in the kernel tree structure), or out-of-tree (outside the kernel tree structure).

This simple example adds an unconditional log information when the virtual video test driver (vivid) kernel module is probed or removed.

  • Go to the <build dir>/workspace/sources/<name of kernel recipe>/
 cd <build dir>/workspace/sources/<name of kernel recipe>/
  • Edit the ./drivers/media/platform/vivid/vivid-core.c source file
  • Add log information in the vivid_probe and vivid_remove functions
static int vivid_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
{
	const struct font_desc *font = find_font("VGA8x16");
	int ret = 0, i;
	[...]

	/* n_devs will reflect the actual number of allocated devices */
	n_devs = i;

	pr_info("Simple example - %s\n", __func__);

	return ret;
}
static int vivid_remove(struct platform_device *pdev)
{
	struct vivid_dev *dev;
	unsigned int i, j;
	[...]

	pr_info("Simple example - %s\n", __func__);

	return 0;
}
  • Go to the build directory
 cd <build dir>

  • Cross-compile the Linux kernel modules
 bitbake virtual/kernel -C compile
  • Update the vivid kernel module on the board
 devtool deploy-target -Ss <name of kernel recipe> root@<board ip address>:/
Info white.png Information
Take care to have enought place available on board to receive the binaries deployed via deploy-target command.

The binaries (mainly kernel modules) are not stripped on deploy-target command and take a lot of place.

  • Update dependency descriptions for loadable kernel modules, and synchronize the data on disk with memory
 /sbin/depmod -a
 sync
  • Insert the vivid kernel module into the Linux kernel
 modprobe vivid                   
[...]
[ 3412.784638] Simple example - vivid_probe
  • Remove the vivid kernel module from the Linux kernel
 rmmod vivid
