Building the toolchain requires a Yocto build environment configured for meta-tq or ci-meta-tq The setup of the build environment is described on the corresponding Yocto quickstart of the module.

The meta-qt5 Yocto layer has to be added to the Yocto build environment when using meta-tq 

bitbake -c populate_sdk @mtq_image@

After building the SDK, the installation script is located in …/tmp/deploy/sdk/ in the build directory

e.g. for @mod_name_mtq@.BSP.SW.@yocto_rel_branch_rev@ 

fsl-imx-wayland-glibc-x86_64-tq-image-weston-aarch64-tqma8mpxl-2gb-mba8mpxl-toolchain-5.4-zeus.sh

By default the sdk will be installed to /opt/fsl-imx-wayland/5.4-zeus, the install path can be changed during the installtion.

The SDK should match to the image rootfs configuration, otherwise you may expect difficuties while debugging an application. So if the rootfs configuration is changed the SDK must be rebuilt and installed again.

Each time you wish to use the SDK in a new shell session, you need to source the environment setup script e.g. 

. /opt/fsl-imx-wayland/5.4-zeus/environment-setup-aarch64-poky-linux

Qt5 SDK

to build the SDK with Qt5 support execute the following command. 

bitbake meta-toolchain-qt5


Building meta-toolchain-qt5 may take several hours, depending on your hardware configuration

After building meta-toolchain-qt5 the SDK file is located in the following path of the build directory tmp/deploy/sdk/fsl-imx-wayland-glibc-x86_64-meta-toolchain-qt5-aarch64-toolchain-5.4-zeus.sh

Execute the *sh file to install the SDK, the default path is set to /opt/fsl-imx-wayland/5.4-zeus
