IoT Gateway Support for Yocto BSP
=================================

The IoT Gateway support layer 'meta-nxp-iotg' provides support for building the
IoT Gateway Linux images for the NXP i.MX 6UltraLite EVK and i.MX 6UltraLowLite
EVK platforms. The layer relies on the standard NXP Yocto BSP.

The IoT Gateway support layer provides the following:
  - WiFi routing, access point and client capabilities
  - various application support packages like python, txthings, and nodejs

These images are not supported.

Quick Start
-----------
To setup the BSP you need to have `repo` installed. Install the `repo` utility:

$ mkdir ~/bin
$ curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
$ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
$ PATH=${PATH}:~/bin

Create the BSP directory:

$ mkdir iotg
$ cd iotg
$ repo init -u git://git.freescale.com/imx/fsl-arm-yocto-bsp.git -b imx-morty -m imx-4.9.11-1.0.0-iotg-demo.xml

Download the BSP:

$ repo sync

Create the build directory, with <machine> = imx6ulevk or imx6ull14x14evk:

$ . sources/meta-nxp-iotg/tools/setup build
$ MACHINE=<machine> . ./sources/meta-nxp-iotg/tools/setup build

If the build directory exists but you're in a new shell:

$ cd iotg
$ . ./setup-environment build

Build:

$ bitbake nxp-image-iotg

Wifi
----
Some instructions for enabling WiFi:

In the boot console, update the dtb, with <dtb-proc> = imx6ul or imx6ull:

$ setenv fdt_file <dtb-proc>-14x14-evk-btwifi.dtb
$ saveenv
$ boot

In the shell console, configure the board as a WiFi client:

$ ifconfig wlan0 up
$ wpa_passphrase <wifi-network> <wifi-password> >> /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
$ wpa_supplicant -B -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -D nl80211
$ udhcpc -i wlan0
