I am using yocto 1.6.1 and I have a a number of recipes in
~/home/poky/meta-atmel-lsp/recipes-lsp.

I have a lightpdbbappend that loads local files, I have a wpa-supplicant.bbappend that loads local files, but I am also trying to load some firmware that should load local files but fails.

In ~/home/poky/meta-atmel-lsp/recipes-lsp/zd1211-firmware/ I have the recipe zd1211-firmware_1.55.bb as follows:

_______________________________________
SUMMARY = "Belkin Wifi Firmware"
LICENSE = "GPL"

SRC_URI = "\
  file://zd1211_ub \
  file://zd1211_uph \
  file://zd1211_uphm \
  file://zd1211_uphr \
  file://zd1211_ur \
"

do_install() {
        install -d ${D}/lib/firmware/zd1211
    install -m 0755 ${WORKDIR}/zd1211_*    ${D}/lib/firmware/zd1211/
}
_____________________________________
I sourced these files but not the recipe from:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/zd1211/

The files indicated in the recipe are in :
~/home/poky/meta-atmel-lsp/recipes-lsp/zd1211-firmware/zd1211-firmware/

When I create the image, no directory is created as /lib/firmware/zd1211
and also no files are loaded into it.

I have also tried {THISDIR}  instead of using {WORKDIR}
I also tried specifying a specific file rather than using the wild card
I have also tried using 'cp' instead of 'install -m 0755'

None seem to work.
I am expecting the firmware files to be located in:
~/poky/build-atmel/tmp/work/sama5d3xek-poky-linux-gnueabi/atmel-qt5-demo-image/1.0-r0/rootfs/etc/firmware
but they are not.

I originally started with a recipe to load the files directly from the source, but that did not work. The original recipe used was zd1211-firmware_1.4.bb from:
https://gitorious.org/opencsbc/openembedded/source/583297ac295f1b381019ccecb4ae6abaa69cbc6c:recipes/zd1211

That did not work and now I am extracting the files from the .tar and trying to load them direct.
Maybe the same problem exists between the original recipe and loading the .tar files.

Thanks for any help

Subject: RE: [yocto] recipe fails to load local files

Based on your suggestion Bryan, and referring to Section 10 -Glossary of the
ref-manual regarding FILES, I have changed the recipe as follows:
__________________________________________
DESCRIPTION = "Belkin Wifi Firmware"
PR = "1.5"

LICENSE = "CLOSED"
FILES_${PN} += "~/poky/meta-atmel-lsp/recipes-lsp/zd1211-

SRC_URI = "\

file://zd1211_uph \
file://zd1211_uphm \
file://zd1211_uphr \
file://zd1211_ur \
"

do_install() {
install -d ${D}/lib/firmware/zd1211
install -m 0555 ${WORKDIR}/zd1211_* ${D}/lib/firmware/zd1211/
}

__________________________________________________________
_

I had not seen a reference to the FILES parameter previously. However, this
still does not work.

Refering to :
http://www.embeddedlinux.org.cn/OEManual/recipes_examples.html

I run the follwoing command from my build directory:
$ bitbake -b meta-atmel-lsp/recipes-lsp/zd1211-firmware/zd1211-
firmware_1.5.bb

and I get the following error:

Note that i also had to address the LICENSE reference as I was getting
LICENSE_CHCKSUM errors

Also note that when I try to build the full image, there is no error but the files
are not present.
In my build directory configuration file I have the reference to my recipe
layer:
/home/lachlan/poky/meta-atmel-lsp \
but although other recipes in this directory are working fine, this recipe
seems to be overlooked. I know that the full image build sees the recipe
because if I comment out the LICENSE reference, the full image build
indicates an error in this regard.

Thanks for any help
Lachlan

RE: [yocto] recipe fails to load local files




Lachlan,











If that is your entire recipe, I don’t see any FILES specification:
http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.7/mega-manual/mega-
manual.html#var-FILES <http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.7/mega-
manual/mega-manual.html#var-FILES> . The SRC_URI just says where to get
the source, but the FILES states which files are expected to be added to the
package. I believe the FILES variable is auto-populated by a compiled
package, which is why you may not see the FILES variable in every recipe.
But in your case in which you don’t compile the code but are just installing
files on disk, you need to fill out the FILES variable.











Regards,





Bryan

Well, in general that's true. Though, in this specific case, it should
actually be a hardcoded /lib/firmware. ${libdir} could be lib64 or
something else, especially in a multilib-build. However, the firmware
files are always searched for in /lib/firmware.

There is no package called zd1211 that I can identify. If I run
$ bitbake atmel-qt5-demo-image -g -u depexp
It does not list a package that has zd1211 in it. Having said that, if I run
$ find -name zd1211*
It shows that zd1211rw and zd1211rw.ko files are in the rootfs in the
tmp/work directory under kernel/drivers/net/wirless.

Is that what you are referring to?

Lachlan
