Yes, as I posted in another thread, the MTD, UBI are all set in my
Linux kernel defconfig, I have also added UBOOT_CONFIG = "nand" in my
layer machine config.

What I missed is u-boot overlay, as you and Andy alluded. I added
UBOOT_CONFIG[nand] += "mx6ull_14x14_evk_nand_config", but strange
enough, that mx6ull_14x14_evk_nand_config, did not set CONFIG_CMD_UBI
in its config.

I think I need to add an appended recipes-bsp to my layer just like I
added the recipes-kernel to my layer to overwrite kernel defconfig, I
need to overwrite u-boot defconfig.

In kernel, to overwrite defconfig, I run bitbake -c menuconfig
virtual/kernel, how can I generate u-boot defconfig, to run bitbake -c
menuconfig u-boot?

Thank you.

Kind regards,

Are there any document to use cross compiler tools to build u-boot-imx
on Ubuntu 18 host machine? It seems that build environment will not be
the same as the Yocto build environment I am currently running on
Ubuntu 18 host.

Thank you Gabriele for great helps.
