Steps in Running an 8051 program

Step1: Use an editor to type a program.The program or the source file may have an extension .asm or .src it depends upon which assembly you are using

Step2: The asm source file is fed to an 8051 assembler which converts instructions into machine code. The output is object file(.obj) and list file(.lst)

Step3: The linker takes one or more object files and produce an absolute object file with extension abs

Step4: Next the abs file is fed into a OH program(object to Hex converter) which creates a Hex file that can be burnt into the ROM.

bb.utils.contains yocto

bb.utils.contains  is most commonly used function in Yocto. grep in poky directory returned with 696 count. $ grep -nr 'bb.utils.contains' poky/ | wc -l 696 It's definition is present in 'poky/bitbake/lib/bb/utils.py' file This function returns third argument if the second argument is subset of the first argument else returns fourth argument Let's take an example to understand this. You can see from the above screenshot, when the second argument is a subset of first argument, "present" was returned, else "notpresent" was returned We can also use bb.utils.contains inside if loop. This we can use inside a recipe. if ${@bb.utils.contains('SOMEFLAG','NEWVALUE3','true','false',d)}; then     FOO = 'HELLO' fi

Building the Linux Kernel is a two-step process: Configuring the Kernel options Building the Kernel with those options. There are many methods available for configuring the kernel. make config: Text-based Configuration.  Options are prompted one after another. All options need to be answered Access to former options is not possible make menuconfig: Menu-driven user interface Allows to navigate forwards and backward directly between features Allows to load and save files with filenames different from ".config" Provides search feature It uses ncurses library for GUI. If the ncurses library is not installed, make menuconfig option fails. To install ncurses library on Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev make defconfig: Creates a ".config" file with default options from the ARCH supplied defconfig Configurations are generally stored in the directory: arch/$(ARCH)/configs $ ls arch/x86/configs/ i386_defconfi...

PREFERRED_PROVIDER and PREFERRED_VERSION in Yocto

-
Image
When we run "bitbake <target>", bitbake looks at the PROVIDES variable of each recipe to find out the recipe for the particular target. The Default value of PROVIDES is PN. PN --> Name of the Recipe PV --> Version of the Recipe PR --> Revision of the Recipe PREFERRED_PROVIDER: Sometimes a target can have multiple providers. PREFERRED_PROVIDER determines which recipe should be given preference when multiple recipes provide the same item. E.g. virtual/kernel, u-boot will be provided by multiple recipes PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "linux-imx" PREFERRED_PROVIDER_u-boot = "uboot-imx" This should be written in local.conf or machine.conf PREFERRED_VERSION: When multiple versions of  a recipe are available, this variable determines which recipe should be given preference. If we don't state the version, bitbake will pick up the highest version. E.g. PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-imx = "3.10.17-1.0.0" PREFERRED_VERSI...
