Hi,
Naresh and I have been working together over the past few weeks to get the Linux UEFI Validation project [0] building for ARMv8, and while progress is being made, there's been a couple of obstacles along the way.
The main problem is that I think there are parts of meta-linaro that really need to be upstream in openembedded-core, like the meta-aarch64 layer.
Traditionally the way development of the LUV project has gone is that all the necessary core architecture support has been handled upstream in oe-core (and subsequently poky) and only the UEFI/ACPI testing components have been handled in the separate meta-luv layer. The luv-yocto repository [0] is an umbrella repository that combines poky and meta-luv, intended to alleviate the need for developers to do any layer integration themselves.
We only require very minimal architecture support and genericx86-64 has been adequate for all our needs so far, and I had originally assumed that genericaarch64 would be OK for aarch64. But that target doesn't appear to be available upstream.
Is anyone looking at getting parts of meta-linaro merged upstream?
