- Customizing the Linux kernel and U-Boot

Once completed developing your own kernel and U-Boot, create your own github account and upload your proprietary kernel and U-Boot to a new repository.
Replace Variscite's Kernel and U-Boot yocto links, to point to your newly created github branches. i.e. replace kernel link:
https://github.com/varigit/meta-variscite-fslc/blob/morty/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-variscite_4.1.15.bb

SRCBRANCH = "imx-rel_imx_4.1.15_2.0.0_ga-var01"
SRCREV = "458fb5c717c1f226d5469f4dd25c21dee78c3816"
KERNEL_SRC ?= "git://github.com/varigit/linux-2.6-imx.git;protocol=git"

with your own. For example:

SRCBRANCH = "imx-rel_imx_4.1.15_2.0.0_ga-var01"
SRCREV = "${AUTOREV}"
KERNEL_SRC ?= "git://github.com/customer/linux-2.6-imx.git;protocol=git"

Also replace:
https://github.com/varigit/meta-variscite-fslc/blob/morty/recipes-bsp/u-boot/u-boot-variscite.bb

SRCREV = "f8b449392656231021897a67bdce689985e608c1"
SRCBRANCH = "imx_v2015.04_4.1.15_1.1.0_ga_var01"
SRC_URI = "git://github.com/varigit/uboot-imx.git;protocol=git;branch=${SRCBRANCH}"

to replace Variscite's U-Boot with your own.


We recommend to use "${AUTOREV}" during development to get the latest Kernel and U-boot when you build Yocto
