|
Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged
|
|
|
|
build system and development environment. It features support for building
|
|
|
|
customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images
|
|
|
|
featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports
|
|
|
|
cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a
|
|
|
|
standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports
|
|
|
|
is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added
|
|
|
|
in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as
|
|
|
|
BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information
|
|
|
|
e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a
|
|
|
|
reference manual which can be found at:
|
|
|
|
http://yoctoproject.org/community/documentation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions
|
|
|
|
of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with
|
|
|
|
DISTRO = "") and contains only emulated machine support.
