Hi,
i have ROM-5722 and demoboard SOM-DB2510 with zeus release version.
I need to switch to kirkstone version but it looks like this version is not supported yet.
For example, with kirkstone version, Pcie, one of two Can lines and GPIOs of demoboard 2510 does not work anymore.
Please, can you confirm this and suggest a way to obtain the kirkstone version fully compatible with ROM-5722?
Thank you
@Mr.Cscn
HI Mr.Cscn,
Above all ,Thanks for your patience and your inquiry about Yocto 4.0 for ROM-5722.
Due to the disparity between Yocto 3.3 and Yocto 4.0 techique, and our engineer is completely dedicated to conquer those integrate issues. Recently, we finally heard substantial progress from engineer team , they expects to release Yocto 4.0 for RSB- ROM-5722 by end of May. At the appointed time, we will release the Yocto 4.0 for RSB- ROM-5722 image and related information to you.
Hi,
I too would like an update if possible.
Thanks,
Hi Anthony,
Thanks for interesting to receive the Yocto 4.0 BSP released. We will release it by end of May, pls stay tuned, as more details will follow.

I’m also interested in Yocto 4.0 for the 5722. I tried building it following the instructions in http://ess-wiki.advantech.com.tw/view/IoTGateway/BSP/Linux/iMX8/Yocto_LBVC_User_Guide but many files don’t download. A cursory investigation indicates that it’s due to the “master” branch of git repos being renamed to “main” (bmap-tools-native for example). Is there a target date when this will be fixed or will I have to do the .bbappend files myself?
Is there an update to this?
@Rob_Singleton Please do the .bbappend files yourself in a short time or change branch directory from bb file in your local meta layer. We’ll find the branch of repos changed to main from the master and fix them in the future.
@Rob_Singleton and @Anthony_garza1

Well, That is not great as we are waiting on this release please remember our releases are dependent on your releases and when your late we are late. Other 8mp manufacturers have been on Kirkstone for a while. Can you please inform me of what your confidence level of hitting the June 15th deadline is?
@Anthony_garza1,
Please get ROM-5722 kirkstone BSP by following the command
repo init -u git://github.com/ADVANTECH-Corp/adv-arm-yocto-bsp.git -b imx-linux-kirkstone -m imx8LBVC0042.xml
Says it can not fetch the manifest.
Please try https instead of git.
repo init -u https://github.com/ADVANTECH-Corp/adv-arm-yocto-bsp.git -b imx-linux-kirkstone -m imx8LBVC0042.xml
The bake fails do to uboot-tools and code aura.
Please modify the source uri from codeaurora to github of bb file or use the download packages from this site
