## OpenEmbedded and Yocto
This page provides instructions to get started with OpenEmbedded and the Yocto Project on the DragonBoard 410c and HiKey.
This page provides instructions to get started with OpenEmbedded and the Yocto Project. It tries (when possible) to be generic for any board supported.
The board diversity should be addressed through dedicated BSP layer then MACHINE choice.

In this wiki, we assume that the reader is familiar with basic concepts of OpenEmbedded.
The support for DragonBoard 410c is available in the [meta-qcom BSP layer](http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-qcom).
The support for HiKey is available in the [meta-96boards BSP layer](https://github.com/96boards/meta-96boards).
These layers have been tested with OpenEmbedded Core layer, and are expected to work with any other standard layers and of course any OpenEmbedded based distributions.
The support for a dedicated board is available in the dedicated BSP Layer. These layers have been tested with OpenEmbedded Core layer, and are expected to work with any other standard layers and of course any OpenEmbedded based distributions.
The Linux kernel used for these boards is the Reference Platform Kernel (RPK). The graphic stack is based on mesa:
* using the freedreno driver for Dragonboard 410c
* using the ARM Mali Utgard GPU driver for HiKey
* using the ARM Mali 400 GPU driver for B2260

| meta-linaro-backports | This is an experimental layer used to get newer versions into the build which were not part of the release. |
| meta-96Boards | This support layer is managed by Linaro and intended for boards that do not have their own board support layer. Currently used for the HiKey Consumer Edition board, and eventually the Bubblegum-96 board. If a vendor does not support their own layer, it can be added to this layer. |
