If anyone is interested, I've done the work to update the E310 BSP to Rocko with the latest versions of everything available. You can find the layer here, forked from upstream meta-ettus/rocko/n3xx: https://github.com/kekiefer/meta-ettus/tree/rocko+e3xx Here is the updated manifest: https://github.com/kekiefer/e300-manifest/tree/rocko The BSP is set up to use the current u-boot from upstream (2017.09) and Kernel from meta-xilinx (2017.03, which is version 4.9). This was a fair amount of work, so I really hope this helps people out and kickstarts the Ettus efforts to get the platform back up-to-date.
