Book Description:
Build Complete Embedded Linux Systems Quickly and Reliably Developers are increasingly integrating Linux into their embedded systems: It supports virtually all hardware architectures and many peripherals, scales well, offers full source code, and requires no royalties. The Yocto Project makes it much easier to customize Linux for embedded systems. If you';re a developer with working knowledge of Linux, Embedded Linux Systems with the Yocto Project will help you make the most of it. An indispensable companion to the official documentation, this guide starts by offering a solid grounding in the embedded Linux landscape and the challenges of creating custom distributions for embedded systems. You';ll master the Yocto Project';s toolbox hands-on, by working through the entire development lifecycle with a variety of real-life examples that you can incorporate into your own projects. Author Rudolf Streif offers deep insight into Yocto Project';s build system and engine, and addresses advanced topics ranging from board support to compliance management. You';ll learn how to Overcome key challenges of creating custom embedded distributionsJumpstart and iterate OS stack builds with the OpenEmbedded Build SystemMaster build workflow, architecture, and the BitBake Build EngineQuickly troubleshoot build problemsCustomize new distros with built-in blueprints or from scratchUse BitBake recipes to create new software packagesBuild kernels, set configurations, and apply patchesSupport diverse CPU architectures and systemsCreate Board Support Packages (BSP) for hardware-specific adaptationsProvide Application Development Toolkits (ADT) for round-trip developmentRemotely run and debug applications on actual hardware targetsEnsure open-source license complianceScale team-based projects with Toaster, Build History, Source Mirrors, and Autobuilder

If you are an embedded systems enthusiast and willing to learn about compelling features offered by the Yocto Project, then this book is for you. With prior experience in the embedded Linux domain, you can make the most of this book to efficiently create custom Linux-based systems....
2nd Edition
There's a great deal of excitement surrounding the use of Linux in embedded systems -- for everything from cell phones to car ABS systems and water-filtration plants -- but not a lot of practical information. Building Embedded Linux Systems offers an in-depth, hard-core guide to putting together embedded systems based on Linux. Updated for the latest version of the Linux kernel, this new edition gives you the basics of building embedded Linux systems, along with the configuration, setup, and use of more than 40 different open source and free software packages in common use. The book also looks at the strengths and weaknesses of using Linux in an embedd...
Linux is being adopted by an increasing number of embedded systems developers, who have been won over by its sophisticated scheduling and networking, its cost-free license, its open development model, and the support offered by rich and powerful programming tools. While there is a great deal of hype surrounding the use of Linux in embedded systems, there is not a lot of practical information. Building Embedded Linux Systems is the first in-depth, hard-core guide to putting together an embedded system based on the Linux kernel. This indispensable book features arcane and previously undocumented procedures for:Building your own GNU development toolchain Using an efficient embedded development framework Selecting, configuring, building, and installing a...
