Kirkstone branch chooses wrong kernel for `imx6ul-var-dart` #13

Closed darkdragon-001 closed 11 months ago

darkdragon-001 commented 2 years ago

When building the kirkstone branch for imx6ul-var-dart, it chooses linux-variscite kernel version 4.14 from meta-freescale-3rdparty repository instead of 5.15 from meta-variscite-bsp repository.

When I try to force the version via REQUIRED_VERSION_linux-variscite = "5.15%" in my distro, it says this version is not available.

What can go wrong here?

@darkdragon-001 Variscite has not released Yocto Kirkstone for the DART-6UL. You can view the available software releases here: https://variwiki.com/index.php?title=DART-6UL

darkdragon-001 commented 2 years ago

When will it be available? We need newer toolchain, kernel and packages as we use the Yocto SDK to build our own software for this device. As we share code with other devices, this is the major blocker in using newer features like C++20 in our shared code...

@darkdragon-001 please contact sales@variscite.com regarding the software roadmap.

I have submitted https://github.com/varigit/meta-variscite-bsp/pull/17 for https://github.com/varigit/meta-variscite-bsp/issues/10 which should resolve this for kirkstone and imx6 platforms. Since I only have access to DART-6UL hardware, I cannot verify that it is functional on VAR-SOM-6UL (but it should be).

Following Variscite's Yocto Kirkstone release for the DART-6UL and VAR-SOM-6UL, I am closing this issue.
