Hi! I'm writing a recipe for a piece of software that requires TIPC support in the kernel. I've tried to figure out a way to accomplish this within my bb-file, but with no success. Is there a way to do such thing with Yocto, currently I run 'bitbake -c menuconfig linux-yocto' (or is it yocto-linux, can't recall) and then I add 'kernel-modules' to IMAGE_INSTALL_append in my 'local.conf'-file? I would like to have this dependency some-how contained within my recipe.
Are you primarily concerned with getting the kernel options enabled and then the built modules installed onto your target ? (I ask because TIPC userspace can come into play .. depending on your usecase). If so, you'd want to add a linux-yocto_3.4.bbappend (assuming you are using the 3.4 kernel) to your layer, and put your options into a .cfg fragment that you append to the SRC_URI (just like any patch or other file). Those options will be added to the config on your next build and installed. In that same layer, you can add kernel-modules to IMAGE_INSTALL and you'll get the build and install whenever the layer is active. There are other ways to do this as well, but what I have above is what I typically do in a distro or BSP layer. Cheers, Bruce
